We enjoyed three QUIET nights here! The owner was very nice and appreciated our business. First night there, we were one of three rigs. The last night, we had the CG to ourselves. Sites are level, gravel, with small shade trees between each site. All are pull-thrus. A plus: no fire pits between sites so your neighbors could smoke you out!!! They have spotless baths/showers, min. golf, rec room, books, videos. We will return!! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We loved this campground! It is situated in an incredibly beautiful high valley at an elevation of 8,440 ft. You can walk across Forest Service land about 100 yards, to the lovely Conejos River, which is popular for fishing. The temperatures in the height of the summer are moderate. The new RV sites on the south side, where we stayed, are spacious and have unobstructed views of the forest. We were able to use our roof-top satellite for TV. There is no cable and no antenna TV reception. These great sites are for sale, however, so eventually there may be none available to rent. The older sites are smaller, closer to the road and do not have the great views that the newer ones do. It is very quiet and peaceful at this campground, a perfect place for a long summer stay. However, there is no cell phone reception. You must drive to Antonito, 12 miles away, to be in the range of any cell towers. The wonderful and accommodating owners, allow you to use their landline phone to make calls and to receive emergency calls. Although there is Wi-Fi available in the office/recreation room, it does not reach the sites, which is a major inconvenience. Most of us much prefer working on our computers in the comfort and privacy of our own rigs. The lack of Wi-Fi at the sites and the lack of cell phone reception are the main drawbacks to this otherwise perfect campground, which is why I can’t rate it a '10'. But the scenery is beyond beautiful! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Conejos River RV Park outside of Antonito CO is a very nice area. Roads and pads are all gravel. The one I had was very close to level. Traffic flow was good. Some of the sites have shade. The staff was very friendly. You can walk from the park to the river. The Wi-Fi does not cover the entire park and you may have to go to the office to have a good connection. There are several tables in the office that you can use as desks. They said that in 2009 they were going to improve the Wi-Fi. Office also had a small game room and nice sitting area with magazines and books for swapping. The park was very clean and well maintained. Very quiet while we were there, we would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This was a one-night stop for us. The hosts were friendly. The campground was not completely full. We had a nice 50amp campsite where the hookups were just fine and the rates were very reasonable (AAA). It was in a peaceful area. I could see hanging out here for awhile and using this as a base camp to explore the area. It was not fancy but it was our type of campground since we don't use the pool and others amenities such as this. We were invited to take part in a potluck but there was no pressure. It was just a really nice friendly little campground with nice folks. We would recommend it to others. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Sites are in a meadow with dirt roads, so when the wind blew it could be very dusty. Some sites were shaded with big trees. Some sites were close together. No TV, we used our satellite dish. We camped in a 5th wheel while friends stayed in a cabin. The cabin was very clean, well stocked, and had Direct TV. A good location if you want to ride the Cumbres and Toltec Railroad out of Antonito. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We enjoyed our week-long stay at this campground because of the natural setting, large trees around the exterior and grassy meadow in the center. The ambiance was rustic and pleasant. It was almost the end of the season so we had the place almost to ourselves. The owners were very pleasant and helpful. The free WiFi was good for several days but then was down for more than a day. The facilities could use some updating, i.e. adding more pull-throughs, 50 amp hookups, cable TV, and updated restrooms, showers and laundry. Potholes in the entrance driveway should have been filled. Overall, however, our stay was quite enjoyable. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We absolutely loved this campground! The owners are very nice and accommodating. Jack knows all about fishing in the area and was very helpful. The sites are dirt with some gravel and it rained the time we were there, but it was not very muddy. We did get excellent Wi-Fi reception from our site, which was close to the antennae. There was no TV service without a satellite, but it is so beautiful there, who needs TV? The scenery is spectacular and the weather a welcome relief from the Texas heat-it was high 60's or low 70's during the day and 40's at night. We loved this campground so much, we made reservations for 2010, but there were very few dates available from which to choose and almost no choice of campsites. Jack said they stay booked over a year in advance and I can certainly see why. If you are lucky enough to score a reservation, you will not regret it. We did not stay in the cabins, but I understand they are nice as well. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a small private campground on the Conejos River in the southern most area of Colorado. The owners are excellent and are experts in placing you in tight spots. The river sites offer a beautiful setting for relaxing for a few days. The river is stocked on a regular basis and you can fish right off the back of your site. This is a popular, rustic campground, that is well run. The non river sites are tight but people do not seem to mind. There is a honey wagon that will come around upon request. The first time is free and each addition visit is $7. Jack and Cathy, the owners, have a loyal following of campers that often stay for the summer and some into fall. There is a relaxed family atmosphere here. We have been here twice in the past two years and will go again when we need our mountain fix. Reservations are difficult to obtain because of the return campers. So repeated calls may be necessary. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a beautiful campground. Not as much private space as we like, but a very nice campground. We stopped without a reservation and we were lucky to be able to spend one night. There was a nice walking area to walk our dog and we had a picnic table for cooking out and enjoying the evening. We would definitely go back and make reservations to get a spot right on the river next time. There are lots of bugs, so you need to dress appropriately and have a supply of bug spray. Friendly owners, doing a great job. We camped here in a Motorhome.
