We loved how it was tucked away in the mountains. Tons of wildlife! We saw deer, turkeys, HUGE jack rabbits and also heard elk. The staff was VERY nice and the food at the café was also very good. We would definitely stay here again next time were in the area.

Great place to stay. The location along the Rio Blanco is serene. The owner, Rich, couldn't have been more accommodating. And the stars Thursday night were jaw dropping. We plan on returning.

The parking spot was level on gravel, close to the other two campers, but the forest was just up the road where we could walk our dog. Neighbor campers including our host were super friendly. Close to town on the highway. Convenient location.

This spot was perfect. It was in a great location close to the hot springs which is what we go to pagosa for. There are some woods nearby that our dogs had a blast in. Beautiful and peaceful. Totally will come back!

This site is right on the river bank and is super peaceful. We did not have any problems with bugs. The site is set up with full hook ups as well as a little patio with a fireplace and seating. J & T met us upon arrival and were very friendly and informative about local things to do. Getting out was a little tricky (our tt is 27’) but not impossible. We’ll definitely be staying again!

Rich was kind and accommodating! The camp was clean and felt close to nature, and fairy close to both Pagosa and Chama. We will certainly keep this on our list of places to stay in So Colorado!

The camp spot is beautiful and has a great patio area to view the river and local wildlife. We saw blue heron and geese fly the river. The hosts are very friendly and the letter they provide gives a lot of local information. The site now has 30 Amp service and water. I don't believe it had that when we originally booked. Since there is only one spot you are guaranteed some privacy and quiet time. The site is almost absolutely perfect. Things to consider when booking this site. The site is right next to a river so there are bugs. Small nats and flys were prevalent at night swarming around lights. Our screens didn't stop the small nats. This is to be expected as you are near a river and not at Disney. Another is the road to the site has a few humps and dips in it, so if you have a weight distribution hitch you should probably disconnect the bars before going down that final stretch. Also, even though we have a relatively short trailer (19 feet) it took a little work to get out of the site. Nothing to stop us from booking again, but I am glad we have a relatively small trailer.

We arrived late and checked out early. A quick overnight on our journey. So we didn’t get a chance to experience everything. I can say the host was wonderful. Walked us to our site. Explained everything about the grounds. They seem to have everything you could need. We backed our van to within 15 feet of a running creek. Nice. Beautiful location, not far from Pagosa Springs (10 miles ish). Would definitely return when in the area. Thanks!

Very nice and secluded location. Follow the directions closely and it's pretty easy to find. A little buggy this time of year, so bring bug spray (mostly gnats/noseums, not really mosquitoes or flies). Beautiful night skies. Very quiet and generally very peaceful, lovely location to dry camp.

Viento Del Rio River Campsite in Abiquiu is a true gem! We absolutely loved our stay with our 25’ Airstream. Their single RV campsite is private, spacious, and wonderfully tranquil, with full hookups (water, 30 amp electric, sewer) right on the river. Our dogs had a fantastic time and we appreciated being able to have them off-leash while keeping a close eye on them. It's incredibly quiet and peaceful, making it perfect for relaxing, and also a great base for fun day trips. Highly recommend!

We loved this campsite seriously, it was magical. From the moment we got there, it just felt special. We saw fireflies at night (like, actual glowing fireflies!), a beaver down by the water, hummingbirds buzzing around, geese flying overhead, and even elk tracks by the river. The spot is super shaded and peaceful, and having direct riverfront access was an amazing. We hopped on tubes and floated down the river and it totally relaxing and so much fun.
Our hosts? Incredible. Super friendly, warm, and welcoming! Thy even gave us a personalized letter and were really quick to respond to anything we needed. The whole property is gated and secure, which made us feel really safe the whole time.
Honestly, between the wildlife, the peaceful setting, and how well we were taken care of, this place just hit all the right notes. We’ll definitely be coming back!

The Last Resort on the River was wonderful! The bathrooms are clean, the skies are dark, the traffic noise is negligible at night, and if you’re a digital nomad, the WiFi is great, especially in the riverside sites 5 & 6. You won’t be sorry you stayed here!
