What Guests Are Saying
Radium Recreation Area offers beautiful scenery along the Colorado River, with clean facilities and friendly camp hosts who provide helpful information. While some campers noted issues like noise from trains, prairie dog activity, and maintenance concerns, many appreciated the peaceful and less crowded atmosphere compared to nearby areas. Overall, it's a great spot for rafting and fishing, though campers should prepare for potential disturbances and bring earplugs.

great site, 15 was right as the river buses enter and exit the water and being very dry kicked up a lot of dust but the site was clean and easy to access. Camp host gave great directions and was very friendly

One of our favorite places to camp. It's quite a bit less crowded and more quiet than Pumphouse, and the river access is excellent!

You all have Hunting For second third third and fourth season by shutting down the campgrounds so people can’t camp they can’t camp and they can’t hunt. Maybe that’s what you’re wanting so we none of us can hunt anymore.

Beautiful views and well maintained campgrounds. The campground host, Kelly, makes it look easy. She is friendly, knowledgeable and willing to help.

Outstanding views, gorgeous area, and a clean, well maintained campground. The Colorado River and it’s subsidiaries provide plenty of river activities, hiking and, of course, Radium warm springs.
