Great spot, very private. Beautiful spot by the river. Off the highway, so some traffic noise, but didn't bother me at all. Very clear directions, zero issues with my stay. Looking forward to returning!

It was actually our first time staying at an RV park, but it was a great experience. Was very clean and had every hookup we needed. Was also nice to be so close to Carter Lake. Also, the bar next door was a cool spot. Would stay again!

Right by a river, and a road but it was not noisy for us in a camper van. Porta potty on site. General store down the road but does not open until 9am in September so we didn’t get to go. Scenic drive leading up to the site. We had no cell service so prepare ahead of time!

Fly away campsite was great! Beautiful area down by the water. Camp site was super easy to find. Has a fire pit and picnic table which was so nice to have. Close to the road but it’s not busy and the river sound covers most of the noise. Would definitely come back!

With the provided instructions the location was easy to find, and absolutely gorgeous! Multiple trails within a 10 minute drive and the sounds of the river were beyond peaceful to fall asleep to. The available portapotty was quite literally the cleanest I’ve ever seen. Overall, favorite spot I stayed out of a 13 day stretch in Colorado!

So.... First off. Putting low stars beacuse of mosquitoes, for me is ridiculous... Ok now... this place is absolutely amazing.... I have stayed 4 or 5 times now. Its VERY isolated and PRIVET! River runs right by you. Yes bugs and mosquitoes, BUT not all the time. Just stayed 4 days and it was fine... If you want to be close to nature, look no further. Calm. Gas station about 3 miles away. Iv gone with my electric scooter. Clean. Trash avaliable. Portapotry. No electricity. No water. In between hills BUT still get PLENTY of sun. I LOVE this place, I cant say it enough... Thanks again.

Weekend Trip to River campsite near Estes Park

I loved camping on this site with some friends! We had 10 total people and it was the perfect size for our group. Easy to find and only 15 minutes from Lake Estes. The picnic table, trash receptacle, and port a potty made our load light for our one night of camping. Heidi was responsive and detailed, and has a great spot with the river. As far as noise, we only heard a few cars pass by when in our tents that weren’t a real bother, but the sound of the water was peaceful to fall asleep to. Listen to the cinnamon bun advice! We wanted more than 6 buns so we had to order the day before (definitely do!). We enjoyed being right by town to walk to grab any last minute needs. Next time I would love to dine at the bed & breakfast in town for dinner. Overall, Heidi was a superhost for us!

My boyfriend and I picked this spot while in town for a concert at the Mishawaka Theater, and we were so glad we did. The location was beautiful—right by the water with amazing views—and it felt private and peaceful. We didn’t have cell service, but honestly, that was a bonus. It gave us a chance to unplug and really enjoy each other’s company. The site was easy to find, and while there were some mosquitos (as expected), they weren’t a problem at all with a little bug spray and a Thermacell—we didn’t end up with any bites. You can hear some cars in the distance, but the sound never overpowered the peaceful setting. All in all, the combination of the scenery, privacy, and convenience made it such a great stay. We can’t wait to come back!

Gorgeous spot conveniently located right on the Poudre River. Plenty of room for a large tent, fire and picnic table. Can be a little loud being in a valley right on the highway but you can't beat the water access and convenience of getting there. Will definitely be back.

Great clean site right by the river. Do note, though, that it is only about 45 feet off of the main road, but it is still private due to foliage and descent.
