About Thirty Mile

Thirty Mile Campground is nestled on the banks of the Rio Grande River, just a short mile from the Rio Grande Reservoir. The location is perfect for anyone who loves to spend time fishing, canoeing and swimming. In addition, there are two trailheads and regular interpretive programs located at the campground. Across from the Thirty Mile is the Weminuche Wilderness, the largest wilderness area in Colorado. It's a famously rugged region with three mountain peaks reaching over 14,000 feet.

Number of accommodations: 28

What Guests Are Saying

Thirty Mile Campground offers a beautiful setting with spacious, well-maintained sites and friendly, attentive hosts. Guests appreciate the clean restrooms, privacy among campsites, and access to fishing and hiking opportunities. However, the road leading to the campground is rough, and some visitors experienced noise issues from nearby campers.

The cleanest campground bathrooms I have ever used. It was quiet and private. The hosts did a very nice job. Most of the sites are good for various reasons whether it be a big family or friends gathering, a hidden little corner, or a great view. This is becoming our favorite campground in the southern part of Colorado.

Place was clean and well kept. The frustrating issue was campsites were reserved with no one staying in them for several days ignoring the rule of occupying on the first night of the reservation

The dirt road in is in good condition and we really enjoyed this campground! Sites are large and ours backed to a creek, which was nice. I hiked a few miles on the Weminuche Creek trail which starts in the campground. The Rio Grande reservoir has two access points; one a few miles from the campground marked by a sign that read "toilet" and the other at the far west end. We enjoyed a day trip to Creede and drove over Slumgullion pass/Lake City on the way back.
Unfortunately the people next to us ran their generator from 7am to 10pm which was super annoying; maybe if you need that much power for your residential fridge, you should stay in an RV park instead of inconveniencing everyone around you. I don't go camping so that I can listen to a lawn mower noise all weekend.

We camp at thirty mile 2 to 3 times a year. Most times it has been 5 star, although this time we had crying babies 👶 and late night partiers for neighbors. Camp host were a great couple. Had to get reservations in the sites we like. Never know the dates that when site reservations are available. All in all love the place. It's a 6 1/2 hour drive for us, but worth it to get away from the crowds closer to town. Only thing on this last trip is we didn't see the moose that usually strolls through the area.
