Springer Gulch is a beautiful area, however, it would be good to know that the rock formations surrounding the camp sites amplify all noises. This is a rustic campground with a hiking trail and river - best suited for shorter trailers or tents. I would have given a higher rating if there had been a camp host or if rangers would have checked the area during our stay.

The best camping spot, #1, at 11 mile canyon. However they took out the lower vault toilet. So plan ahead. We saw a mink by the river and a mama and baby moose walk right by the water pump in the campground. It does get crowded on weekends now a days.

Eleven Mile Canyon includes several developed campgrounds. It is in close proximity to several national monuments and state and national parks. The nearby town of Buena Vista is a must-see destination for great restaurants and other attractions.

First time tent camper at this spot, and I can't wait to come back in October. I personally think this is the best tent spot in the whole camp ground. I could hear the river, and it was utterly relaxing. Parking spot was very close to where you set up camp. Only downside is they took out the bathrooms that were closer to campsites 1-3, so you do have to go to the other bathroom in the campground maybe a 1/4 mile away. Sunset was absolutely stunning. Josh the camp host was excellent.
