Clorinda King
This was a beautiful RV park location, friendly management team, very helpful, great at helping to guide you in parking your RV. The grounds are very well maintained, beautiful river on the property. Nice amenities, restrooms and laundry rooms very clean. We stayed there in our RV, water pressure was very good which is sometimes hard to find, WiFi was good (Sky-link), place to build a fire by each area and picnic table. Did not have a dog park area but plenty of areas to walk your dogs. Overall very nice place.

Our first time to Lake City and Woodlake Rv park. We stayed in a cabin and it was clean and full of everything we needed. The campers we met were all so friendly and nice. One of their employees , Gordon, was the best and very accommodating! We visited with the owners and they were a big help in giving us recommendations on where to explore. The river running right in front of the cabin was breath taking. This Texas traveler would like to go back for sure!

Tent camper here. The hosts are nice, showers clean, and location is great. The tent campsite is subpar. Expect be crowded right next to the other tent spot and surrounded by RVs and cabins. It's not a private spot. You'd do better scooting up to a cheaper, more private, and scenic spot up Lake San Cristobal. The review by "12 Bravo" regarding their camping experience before mine seems misleading IMO. The hosts are not great communicators either. I emailed them before leaving Fort Collins stating that I would be arriving after 9:00pm (note: they don't specify an arrival window, I did this as a courtesy). Then, while en route, I get a call at 7:00pm asking where I was. I told them I was over an hour out and they sounded quite annoyed but were "willing" to wait for me. Maybe you should state an official arrival policy and/or check your email if this is important to you? Once we arrived, they were quite nice. They just need to communicate better beforehand and align expectations. Personally, I wouldn't come back. But if you're looking for a clean campground with supplies, showers, and community during your trip, you may enjoy this spot.

This park is right on the river, 2.9 miles out of Lake City, CO. It is so beautiful and peaceful. We will definitely be back.

Great people. We came in early and they were very nice to work with and super hospitable. The river ran right next to our camp. Great spot!
