Marvine Campground

The campground host was very helpful and when we had trouble opening our bare box with a broken lock, he got it open and we were able to get our things out of it and cook dinner on our grill, which was stuck in it. He was very helpful.

Serene, peaceful and clean. Will absolutely be back.

Camping spots and corrals were suitably clean. From many previous experiences, I knew ours to be the best of the horse camping spots and the weather cooperated wonderfully, nice reprieve from hot at home.
Manure disposal was easy to use except for wheelbarrow ramp which could use a fix.
The only problem was cows repeatedly entering camp, trying to reach horses' hay and moving the fence panels.

Perfect location close to the Flat Tops Wilderness. An ample of sites options. Clean restrooms.

The new tires were very nice, wide and level. All of my party would have liked to see wood corals, we understand the ease and convenience of the panels hut sometimes ease and convenience isn't the only consideration. The corals were nice but a bite small they could have used one or two more panels. All in all a very nice experience

Bathrooms were immaculate, the new spots are very nice, I would liked it if the corrals had been made of wood like the old ones. I have those stock panels and there nice but, but the corrals are a little small and could have used one or two more panels per corral. Oner all everything was nice and we'll be back next year.

Real Nice Campgroud, but the campground host started his loud generator every morning at 6:30 am and ran it until 8:00 am
Kowing it was bear country he also had humming bird feeder out.

Marvine Campground is beautiful and remote. We were the only ones there most of the week. The hike along Marvine Creek is fantastic. The camp host keeps the toilets spotless.

Nice campground with easy access to the Flat Tops. We hiked East Marvine Creek trail and drove up to Trapper's Lake to explore other campgrounds and trails. We'll be back! The lack of water is an issue at most Western CO campgrounds, but the town park in Meeker has potable water and a dump station for a contribution (in the corner of the parking lot). The Rifle dump station does NOT have potable water. Also, the Meeker town park is a great site for a picnic on the river, and the county museum is a treasure!

We have utilized this camp for many years and absolutely love the area! The riding is top notch.
Sadly, due to drought, the water pump was inoperable. Well was dry.
When I booked our reservation, I selected 2 sites, each with a corral. I was later notified that that one of the sites I booked had been eliminated. I was offered a full refund or to choose different dates. Since we were meeting friends, other dates were not an option.
We were told new corrals had been put in and sites were upgraded. We chose to stick with just the one site , and we would divide the corral with electric fence.
Imagine our surprise when we pulled in expecting BIG, wooden pole corrals, which is what has been there previously…. And finding small, portable panel pens! Way too small to split for two equine. What a huge disappointment!
One animal then was put in a hot wire pen, while the other occupied the porta-panel pen. And, because that pen was not permanent, fixed to the ground in any way, our animal entertained herself moving the panels around and making a nice mess of things.
This camp is frequently booked full, and eliminating a camp site, making pens smaller and no water available for stock, we felt a bit cheated.
We did like the upgraded, nearly level gravel parking pad, new metal picnic tables that dry quickly after the rains, and no camp host. Also, no dog charge this year!!
