What Guests Are Saying
Stove Prairie offers a beautiful camping experience along the Poudre River, with many guests appreciating the soothing sounds of the water and the friendly camp host. While some noted issues with cleanliness in the bathrooms and the presence of non-paying day visitors, the overall atmosphere and proximity to nature, along with nice walking trails, make it a desirable spot. Campers enjoyed family-friendly activities and the scenic environment, though some expressed frustrations over the camp host's demeanor and additional fees.

Wonderful Campsite. We paid $765 to hold 7 of the 9 spots for 4 days. Camphost was great. But hordes of non-paying day visitors invaded the area all weekend. Host had to clean the bathrooms everyday. People walking their dogs and pooping on our campsites all weekend. Highly annoying fly fisherman all over the place. All the fish are caught & dead. Trespassers fishing for hours right in front of our paid campsite. They used our site for free. Need to put up more signs. There are two day use areas within a mile, but day users own Stove Prairie. Need at least a dozen signs clearly saying that if you did not pay a fee, do not stop here. Tried to tell the invaders but they took over anyways. Maybe cones and barriers with signs? Other people took our spots before we set up tents. Can I get a refund?

The camp host was great. There was an issue with someone else in our campsite and they handled it quickly for us.
The Bertie was great but the river had too many rafters that go down it and there weren’t any fish because of them.

The campsite is absolutely beautiful if you don't mind walking a short distance to your campsite. More shade than lots of other sites with great river access, including some beach areas, depending on the water level.

The site is fine. It's a bit primitive, but not totally. Right next to the river which is awesome.
My real issue is that I find working through reserve America a bit like trying to get Taylor swift tickets through ticket master.
Hard to see the map and get back to selecting dates; plus always the one I want that had been open 5 minutes before is no unavailable and I have to get the non handycap spot, watching some young family with toddlers get it instead of the dude in the wheel chair.

Awesome little campground! This spot may be tricky to back into for some bigger trailers, but is plenty big once you’re lined up and everything. Beautiful little trail back to the river and an area to put some chairs and just relax listening to the water. I didn’t mind being right next to the road, but can see how it may annoy some people at night with bright car lights.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.

- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
