Decent size camp ground, but not too big to be over crowded. Spaces are nice, most are shaded. Bathrooms were clean. Only one shower worked on the womens side. Camp host was great and super sweet. Short drive from Telluride, and you can hear road noise but it's not terrible.

Host was very put out with our questions and made a comment that “if she didn’t have grey hair already ..”
More than 2 people needed her assistance and she didn’t seem to want to be bothered to explain or help .

The campground is in a beautiful location and we enjoyed our stay here. Pretty level spot for our 26' RV and even had hookups. Campground host was available and helpful. We drove to Mountain Village, parked and took the free Gondola and spent the day in Telluride.

The campground was fairly nice, but the host at the front was troublesome. She kept stopping by everyone’s camp and making up ridiculous rules. One day she decided that hammocks are not allowed, even though that is not a rule at all. Another time she was obsessed that the “grass” stayed nice, but no this wasn’t nice grass or long wild grass, it was gross dandelions that were growing out of rock beds.

Seven miles just outside Telluride CO. Making it a great location for food and walking the downtown area. Close to multiple Hiking trail heads. The campground was quiet, campers well nicely spaced, and the view was outstanding.
