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 ft.

Summary

AI generated

Thirty Mile Campground is highly praised for its beautiful mountain views, spacious and clean campsites, and friendly hosts who maintain spotless facilities. Visitors appreciate the campground's privacy, proximity to fishing spots, and access to hiking trails. The main concern noted was the rough 10-mile dirt road and occasional noise from generators, but overall, guests express a strong desire to return.

The smoke from nearby fire was intolerable. The campsite itself was very nice. Did not stay.

The hosts were very kind and friendly, and they were very efficient in maintaining the restrooms. It was the cleanest outdoor restrooms I’ve ever experienced. We will be revisiting this campground.

Great as always! Camp hosts did a wonderful job keeping everything perfect! Can hardly wait till next year. Hopefully we won't be in a fire ban but it is fine if we can't have fires if needed. It was nice to be able to get Verizon and ATT signals although the network servers were a bit janky.

Would have been 6 stars if camp fires and charcoal were allowed (only disallowed due to stage 2 fire restrictions).
