Pagosa Riverside Campground

When I pulled in to this campground, my first words were “Holy cow! This is incredible for $31.50!” (With AAA discount) My tent site was right at the lake’s edge (site D) and the river was just 100 yards on the other side of the camp. Large shade trees and excellent wifi (I was close to the office). Every worker at the campground was friendly and super helpful. Highly highly recommend this place! The store was well-stocked and nicely priced with everything I wanted (postcards, a patch, cute t-shirt for grandson, food, drinks). Very nice laundry room with lounge area included and a library. Can’t say enough good things about this place.

Friendly and helpful staff. Laid back and quiet campground with full amenities. Worth every dollar. Stay here.

At first glance, PRC may not look like much. But having stayed there over a recent weekend, I can tell you it’s a great place to spend a few days (or a month).

It started with a great experience booking the site. We were making some last-minute travel plans, and the PRC folks helped us find a perfect site on short notice. We travel in a tiny teardrop trailer, and the site they picked couldn’t have been better. (More on that shortly.)

When we arrived, the staff greeted us, checked us in, and led us to our site. They showed us where all the amenities were, and left us to get set up. Our site (33) was perfect for a small to mid-size trailer, with beautiful trees, a nice fire ring, and a picnic table.

The property has a nice pond, with sites that line one side of it. But the real beauty here is that the San Juan River sits on the back of the property. We love to fish, so we stopped in a local fly shop, picked up some flies and fishing licenses, and caught a 10-inch rainbow back at the campground. (They also sell flies and fishing tackle in the campground store.)

The bathrooms and showers were nice and clean, and since we don’t have a bathroom in our trailer, we were happy to have them.

This feels very much like a campground that’s been in the family for years. Sure, it’s not all new and shiny, but the staff (and there are quite a few of them) work hard to make PRC a great place to stay.

A sprawling campground located away from gas stations and restaurants; everything was clean and well-kept but the showers were not adequate for the number of campers; Very poor wi-fi.

Pagosa Riverside Campground is a 4-star park that would be a 3-star park if it weren’t for the full-hookup riverfront sites. Definitely upgrade, they don’t discount the riverfront sites with Good Sam etc, otherwise this is any other RV park.

The location is good for visiting the springs downtown, it’s a quick 5 minute ride.

The park overall is clean and the staff cares. Our site was unlevel 4.5 inches side to side, which is a bit crazy for an RV park. The electrical and sewer hookups were newer and in great shape.

Great campground,Awesome staff. Right next to the river. Clean quiet and large sites.

We had a great time staying on the river. Spacious spot, quiet at night, amazing stargazing. The trees around the area are beautiful. Bathrooms were clean. The staff took us last minute and had us set up in under 20 minutes. Great people. Highly recommend.

Clean sites, great river access, RV and tent friendly

We’ve stayed here twice now. Both times were very enjoyable. It’s a quiet atmosphere. The first time, the WiFi was poor. This time it is working very well with 5mb down speed. Showers are small but clean. Walking along the River is very relaxing.

I have stayed here in April and Sept. Both times same experience. helpful staff, clean and great location.
