Sites are in a meadow with dirt roads, so when the wind blew it could be very dusty. Some sites were shaded with big trees. Some sites were close together. No TV, we used our satellite dish. We camped in a 5th wheel while friends stayed in a cabin. The cabin was very clean, well stocked, and had Direct TV. A good location if you want to ride the Cumbres and Toltec Railroad out of Antonito. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We enjoyed our week-long stay at this campground because of the natural setting, large trees around the exterior and grassy meadow in the center. The ambiance was rustic and pleasant. It was almost the end of the season so we had the place almost to ourselves. The owners were very pleasant and helpful. The free WiFi was good for several days but then was down for more than a day. The facilities could use some updating, i.e. adding more pull-throughs, 50 amp hookups, cable TV, and updated restrooms, showers and laundry. Potholes in the entrance driveway should have been filled. Overall, however, our stay was quite enjoyable. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
For us this was a great campground. I stress campground and not RV Park, as it has no pool, limited playground equipment and no cable. However it is quiet, grassed and treed, satellite friendly and has excellent WiFi. The owners are very nice. We have thought of spending a month or two here in the future. It is 5 miles away from the station for the Cumbres & Toltec Railroad. It is a good jumping off point for many destinations in southern CO and northern NM. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Absolutely gorgeous location for a campground. Our front window looked out on the Conejos River. It was a little tight driving through the park, but the owner directed us into our site. He was very friendly and helpful. Even though we were only there for one night, we would like to return for a longer stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The scenery and atmosphere in this campground is without equal. It can be a bit tight maneuvering, but I have seen several large Class A's and even a 40' 5th wheel so anyone can fit. There is excellent trout fishing on site or one can drive in any direction and be on a stream or high country lake within minutes. The hosts are among the best in the business. They will know you by your first name in no time. Lots of repeat customers in this place. No live ins but a few who stay a month. Ponderosa is only open from May 1 to Oct. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Have stayed in this campground for over 20 years. It can be a bit tight on manuevering, but the staff will be happy to help on parking. They are continually making improvements on the RV sites. No sewer hookups, but you get one free dump by the staff with a portable dump station each week. Extremely friendly staff and they have been working on this campground for several years. Each year one can see more improvements. The setting is beautiful. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
