A young couple now own this campground. Very friendly and helpful. You can walk to the river fish. Very nice tent sites. We stayed 7 nights. Our group had 18 people with everything from tents to 5th wheels. There is a pavilion with tables and a gas grill by the tent camping area. Unlike some RV parks, they don't make tent campers feel like second class people. We hope to return next year. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
New owner for 2006. A lot of improvements have been made. Walk to Arkansas River to fish. Very scenic with the Collegiate Peaks on one side and the river on the other. Very nice tent sites. We stayed 3 nights. We had my 33' travel trailer and a large 5th wheel. They also have a 5th wheel for rent which friends rented for one night. About 4 miles north of Buena Vista on Highway 24. Ghost towns and scenic drives in immediate area. We will stay there again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Rate is Passport America. New owners are really making this into a nice park! The sites are level and have a great view of the mountains. Wi-fi works well, but no cell service for me. Owners are very helpful with directions to different things in the area and places to go see if you don't have any idea what is around like me. They also work with one of the BEST whitewater groups in the area and will set up a reservation for you plus offer a free shuttle!!! They still have some remodeling to do or I would have rated them a 10. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We spent four late season nights at this very nice campground to visit some of the local area including Aspen, Leadville, Breckenridge, and South Park City. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Although the park is somewhat rustic, it is very well laid out and very comfortable. The owners have obviously been working hard to upgrade the facilities since their purchase several years ago...the effort shows. The WiFi was adequate for our needs and the layout of the park allowed for a good south view to the TV satellite dish. We enjoyed an early season snowfall during our visit and had a great time watching the deer browsing on the grounds. We would certainly return for an extended stay in the future. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a campground we would like to spend more time at--it has a "dude ranch" atmosphere. The sites are gravel. The staff is friendly and the scenery is great--but then, we like the mountains! We camped here in a Motorhome.
We were pleased with our space, view, cleanliness of restrooms/laundry and location. Wi fi started out so-so but later improved. Cell phone service around area apparently depends on carrier. Beautiful mountain range right across highway from park. The owners went out of their way to accomodate us. They are working hard to update the park. We checked out all surrounding parks and feel Arrowhead met our needs as well as they could have. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We really enjoyed our stay there and are looking forward to our next visit. The RV sites were nice but there could have been more sites with trees. My 8 year old son loved the playground area. The game room need more games to play. the restrooms and showers were immaculate. The office/store was well supplied and clean. The pavilion was of good size. They have an awesome tent area with clean sites and beautiful views. The new owners are doing a great job of restoring the facility. Keep up the good work. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

The new owners are really serious about upgrading this CG. Based on customer feedback, a new cell tower and internet tower were scheduled to be put up within the last couple weeks, after we left. All that should be done by now. The rest of the CG is a clean and friendly as always. This was our second trip and we will be back. Lots of activities on their web page. They also arrange pick up and drop off for local outdoor activities. We took the rafting trip to Browns Canyon on a lark and ended up having one of the best family outings ever. Just let them know what you want to do. We are already ready to go back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Good level gravel sites. Nice view of surrounding mountains and valley. Laundry room was very clean and washers/dryers looked new. Looks like the park is being upgraded. The pool was empty and needed some work as well as a few buildings but the rustic look of some buildings seem to fit the overall park theme. Excellent customer service and the WiFi worked great. Limited cell phone. However I was able to make calls in certain areas of the park. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Older campground being rebuilt by new, younger owners. Nice folks who are trying hard to please. Big rig sites, all new utilities, great free wifi. negatives are: limited cell service, very sandy with little grass. Beautiful views and a great overnight stop on the way to other areas. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The new owners are very friendly and have gotten the formerly run down park in very good shape. The sites were clean and spacious. The park is big and has lots of trails to explore. We also saw lots of deer wandering around, There is a nice pool, putt-putt golf, etc. We had a great time and there are tons of outdoor recreation activities available in the area - white water sports, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, etc. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Now known as Arrowhead Point Camping resort and under new management. The new owners are trying hard and it shows. Very nice family-oriented campground with a playground, putt-putt golf and arcade. Spotless showers and toilets. Port-a-potties even have deodorizer and hand sanitizer. RV sites are not cramped and some have shade. Great views of the Collegiate range and close to great fly fishing on the Arkansas. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed at Crazy Horse with our 8 year old daughter from Saturday through Tuesday. The campground was never crowded (management says people are still staying away as a result of 2002 forest fires). Our only negative comments are that the picnic tables are falling apart and that the sites close to the highway are noisy (though there is little traffic at night). The pool was warm, clean and active. The mini-golf was just rebuilt last year and was a very popular activity for both my family and many of the other guests. The petting zoo and the playground weren't anything special
but all of the kids seemed to enjoy congregating there. The office/store was well stocked and made a good impression. The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful. All in all, this was a very nice family campground. We stayed 3 nights. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Our tent site was poorly maintained (big rocks, small rocks), not leveled, lousy warped picnic table, and inadequate in terms of size of site and place to park car and its proximity to the driveway. Overloaded dumpster nearby and open gate near county road was unnerving as it related to animal raids at night. The bathrooms were small (hardly enough room to sit on the seat, dark and dank). Needed a maintenance work over, but were suitably clean. The disappointing thing, however, was that we went to this campground because it called itself a resort with activities in the ads. Sorry, folks, activities are for crowded weekends, not weekdays. Nothing was happening. Office opens at 8 and closes at 8. Public phone was broken, so the office had the only phone. We drove three miles for a phone after 8 pm. Not good. Save your money for another campground in the Arkansas River Valley. We camped here in a camper.

Vastly overrated by Trailer Life. Wide Open with minimal shade available, sites not tended to, picnic tables in need of repair or missing, site numbering markers missing. Plenty of space between sites in certain sections, too close together in other sections. Bathroom facilities inadequate for the number of sites, and are in need of repair. They were fairly clean, but just not adequate. Pool area was very nice and clean. They have on-site nightly barbeques and entertainment, and there is a small petting zoo for the kids. The owners and staff are very friendly and helpful. But this campground could use some attention! It's more rustic than the Trailer Life ratings would have one believe. We camped here in a camper.
Very clean park with fantastic mountain views. A very friendly couple was running the park and delivered firewood to our site for a campfire. They have a really nice rec-room if you just want to relax outside of your trailer and watch some TV. We also liked that the site is far off the highway and was very quiet. We would gladly stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Beautiful surroundings, rock outcropings, 14,000+ mountains, called the Collegiates and clear lakes. The Arkansas River, where some of the best whitewater rafting in the country is sought after, is only 1 mile from the campground. The owners are helpful, campground is well run and customer service is their primary goal. We will return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Signage to campground good. Easy access off US 24 about a mile from town center. Small area to park and register outside office. Owners very friendly and efficient. Access roads within campground well maintained and wide. Most sites are back-ins which have solid and flat gravel pads. All sites have full hook-ups. Electricity solid and water pressure good. Quiet location particularly when it snows which it did when we were there. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice off highway park. Sites are well kept, large enough for the big rigs. New owners are working hard to present a good experience. They have the campers best interests at heart. Sites are very level and easy to pull into. Cabins and tenting also available. Club house with TV and bathrooms with shower and tub available for summer visitors. Great view of Colorado's 14ers! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed here for three nights while looking at real estate for retirement relocation. Very nice family owned and family oriented campground. Many seasonal residents who maintain their plots including green grass. Some spaces are a bit tight for big rigs. They provided expert guided assistance on some tight turns. When my site wouldn't accommodate my rig, they gladly moved me so slides and awning would open. They stagger you in so that you have additional room. Nice long pull through sites, some back in sites and nice isolated tent camp sites. Free Wi-Fi that works very well. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
What a great little park. Very quiet and comfortable. Lots of atv's but no noise or dust. Passport America. Wireless is Tangointernet$$$. Verizon worked good. Staff very helpful. Lots of seaonal campers. Nice pull thru site were 47-54. Other pull thrus share yard. Staff very helpful. No more trees! More trees would mean less satellite access! They don't have cable tv. Would definitely stay here again. Call first, very busy park... We camped here in a Motorhome.
Owners here are some of the most friendliest you'll ever meet. Campground is nice, would like to see more trees, but that takes time. Would very much recommend this park to others. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Most of the sites are very close together. For the pull-thru sites you park side by side with your neighbor and there is not any space between the opposing slide-outs. When we were there they had a torrential down-pour and part of the campground was flooded in places with a foot of water due to a drainage problem. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Super nice campground with shaded, level sites. Folks here are very friendly and helpful. Beautiful view of Snowy Peaks for sure! Don't miss the prime rib and filet at Quincys Restaurant in town! Definitely due for a return visit. One of our best buys ever through Coast To Coast at only $8 per night. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The roads in this campground are gravel, but we had a nice grassy site for our W&E hookup. Johanna welcomed us and was always happy to answer our questions. The host couple was very nice, and all hosts contributed their efforts to a Sunday morning pancake feed. The campground also had a campfire complete with singing on Saturday night. It is right on US24, but we were not at all bothered by highway noise - we were back and there are trees to block the sound. The awesome Collegiate Peaks are right across the road. You must pay extra to a private contractor for WiFi. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The owners are very nice. The work campers are out of this world, so friendly. The office store just has minimal supplies...not a lot. The wi-fi is just a nominal fee with a strong signal throughout the park. All sites are level and grassy. The bathrooms are for individuals and very, very clean. The laundry is also neat and clean. Didin't use, but the clubhouse looked adequate. Very easy ingress and egress. For a nominal fee, you can wash your rig on site (Nice touch!)Stayed here in a motorhome and will frequent this park OFTEN!!! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was a nice park. Roads & sites were gravel. We had a pull thru site that was hard to get in to due to trees, large decorative rocks and the RV that was in the next site. The RV was close because of the side by side hookups. Once parked, we had a large grass yard with trees & flowers. Most of the pull thrus were similar to ours. Another area of the park had back ins that were easier to get in to. The park was clean & well maintained. There were some seasonals. All in all, we enjoyed the park & would stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Discount for cash or check. Owners are very friendly and keep an immaculate park. Lots of room between sites. One or two pull-thrus might be available but don't count on it. Wi-Fi is occasionally available for a fee from an adjacent campground. We have stayed here several times for several days each time and will do so again. We have observed very few children here but the park is primarily adult oriented. Occasionally social activities are planned (potlucks, ect.) We camped here in a Motorhome.
