Beautiful views! Clean restroom - camp host were very helpful and friendly. We had the upper loop to ourselves otherwise the closeness of the tent sites would be tight. And you can hear road noise. But the proximity to the river and scenery is worth it!

The sound of the river is one of the best things about this place. Unfortunately there's no restrictions generators so that can ruin it for everyone.

Absolutely the best campground hosts! Bill and Deb helped me solve a number of issues I had while camping. They were kind and considerate I was upset about an issue with my awning. Bill helped me solve the problem he was very nice he never made me feel at fault for the problem. I am so grateful to Bill and Deb. The campground is beautiful, quiet and very clean restrooms.

What a nice surprise! We had a wonderful time at Aspen Glade. The campground is quiet especially in the loop C near the river.Hosts are friendly and accommodating. Sites are roomy and shady with beautiful pines.There is so much to do in the area especially off of FR 250. There are other campgrounds off of FR 250 but the road is usually pretty rough with washboard. Hike to an alpine lake but make sure to take your fishing rod. The town of Antonito is only 20 minutes away for supplies. No cell service but who cares!-enjoy the quiet. Stop at the Red Bear welcome center in Horca for a beverage and use their wifi if you need to check in. We will definitely be back.
