What Guests Are Saying
Amphitheater Campground is highly praised for its stunning views, cleanliness, and friendly, helpful camp hosts who enhance the overall experience. While the campground features tight roads and small sites, making it less suitable for larger RVs, it is ideal for tents and smaller trailers. Some guests noted the need for bear boxes and improvements to the pit toilets, but many expressed their eagerness to return due to the beautiful setting and access to hiking trails.

The campsite was a mess. Weeds everywhere. The fire pit was completely filled to the top. Won’t go back.

LOVED this campsite. The hosts were so friendly as were the other campers. It truly felt like a little green oasis up just above Ouray with beautiful sunsets at night. Thank you to the hosts!

Loved it here. Vault toilets were a new experience... did NOT enjoy that but you can’t blame them for other people stinking it up. It was kept clean and staff were kind
