Located on the Dolores river, this property is perfect for hikers, fishing, rafting, or just camping! There is a natural spring just a few miles from the location with drinking water as well. When you stay here you are located right on the river with nothing but places to hike, climb and have fun and there are several options for you to choose from. There is a cabin, an onsite RV, a canvas tent, and BYO tent or RV camping on the land - you can pick whatever suits you best! No matter what, you can fall asleep to the sound of the river after a great night of star gazing! Nearby outdoor points of interest include the Dolores River on property, Hanging Flume which is approx. 20 miles from site, Gateway Canyons Resort Auto museum 7 miles from site, Arches National Park 2 hour drive from site, Colorado national monument 1 hour drive. The Grand Mesa 2 hour drive, Telluride ski resort 2 hour drive! You can find hiking, biking, swimming, paddle board, kayaks, rafting, fishing, tubing, bird watching, star gazing rock climbing, bouldering, all right from the property. All sites are accessible without 4wheel drive. I love where I live and think everyone should be able to experience the peaceful quiet beautiful environment that it is!

Only got partial refund

Nice piece of land along the river. We made a reservation for 5 nights, reduced it to 3 nights a day before we left. We were only refunded for one night, not two.

The views at Gateway

100% would come back anytime I’m back out this way. Jody was incredibly flexible and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed for a great trip. Her and Dozer were a welcome addition to part of our stay and the swimming hole was definitely a plus to escape the heat. Already wish we had planned for a longer stay!

Beautiful

The land and space itself is beautiful. The river is so relaxing and wonderful to listen to at night as you sleep. The camp spot we stayed at had a huge tree that provided nice shade even during warm parts of the day. The host was excellent and went out of her way to show us where everything was at and made sure we had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this site to anyone seeking peace and quiet:)

Possibly the best camping ever

At the risk of spoiling my newest favorite campsite, I have to recommend Jody’s campsite to anyone who values privacy, solitude and a spectacular view. It’s basically like having the whole Grand Canyon to yourself. Only challenge is to make sure you have multiple shade strategies such as an awning but also maybe a shade umbrella for when the sun migrates to the other side of the canyon. It can be very toasty in July, when I went. Jody herself is very nice and thoughtful and offered extra firewood. Super nice lady. This is one campsite I plan to return to.
