Via e-mail, we were asked for info about our rig, and sent a link to complete a waiver. The e-mail stated a noon check-in time and had no further info about the check-in process. We provided the rig info and signed the waiver. The day before arriving in August, we were sent numerous text messages about a form, and the need to provide info about our rig. The text messages had check-in as Noon in one sentence, and check-in as 3:30 in another sentence. We called, got a nice person who spoke limited English. We were able to determine that they had received the form, but that they needed our rig information. Provided that again. She told us our site #'s, and said we would get a text with codes and check-in information. On the day of arrival, we got a text with the WIFI password and no further information. When we arrived, we could not find an office or staff. They Info on yelp states that there is a gift shop and boutique on site. That must have been when it was still owned by "Pamela". We finally saw a small sign with the instructions to just go to our site. About 1/2 hour after we arrived, a pleasant person stopped by with her infant to let us know she was the on-site manager, and to give us the code for the dumpster. She provided no further information or assistance. Sites 1-6 are COMPLETELY different than the website photos and the reviews, which were written a few years back when someone named Pamela owned and ran the property. These sites are VERY narrow. It took our friend multiple manipulations to pull in with his 5th wheel. These sites have no room for chairs or tables to sit outside. There was an old picnic table perched on the slope between sites 4 and 5. Significant literal trash at sites 1-4. A dead bird, dead vegetation, sewage pipes without caps, intense sewage smell. Very low water pressure. Unkempt weeds and sticker burr plants at our site, those next to us, and most of the places to walk the dogs. Buildings and grounds were trashy, run-down, dirty. We were traveling through for one night. We would strongly discourage others from staying here.

Bighorn Park in Coaldale, CO was a great place to stay. It has RV accommodations and hookups,…read moremotel and cabins. There is also a separate showering space adjacent to the RV park. We stayed in a cabin, friends were in the motel, and RV park. All within close proximity so we could walk to each others site. While very rustic, they were very clean. Cabin was complete with two separate bedrooms, a kitchen (including all utensils and coffee pot), bathroom and living space. Incuded was shampoo, conditioner, soap, dish soap, coffee, dish rags, kitchen towels, bath towels, wash rags and a swamp cooler for air conditioning. It even had a crock pot as well as your basic pots and pans. Full sized refrigerator with freezer. Stove and oven. The motel rooms were about the same, less the separate bedrooms, kitchen and living space. It also has an outdoor pool and a commons area. The owners, Aaron and Brenda, couldn't have been any nicer or more accommodating. It is right off the highway, easy to find. A stream runs through the back of the property offering a scenic view. Would definitely stay there again.

I had to drive to Salida to make the phone call and send the text, since my phone doesn't work in Howard. The response I received to my complaint was an email assuring me the code was provided.

Upon arrival, I was really concerned what I got myself into. The front of this so-called hotel is…read morereally ran down. No one is around. Everything is done remotely out of Texas, they open the doors by sending a code that they email you when you can actually check in. At first, I was able to use the Wi-Fi in order to work. There is no cell service whatsoever. Around 6:37 AM p.m. the Wi-Fi completely shut down. No communication whatsoever no TV. Nothing I was unable to work the entire night. At 3:15 AM the long-term neighbor, the lights to talk to a very young lady like it's one of his buddies at the bar slams the screen door to go out to his car and then does it again going back in. There is no place to hang your clothes, no chair, no desk nothing but a bed, a tiny refrigerator that appears to have something that has died in the freezer. Upon departure there was still no Wi-Fi. I attempted to call the people in Texas once I got to Salida Colorado and had to leave a message. I do have to say the room was clean. The little sink was plugged up, the water shower was hot, but the tub is extremely slippery. The back of the hotel is an RV park that have a number of seriously ran down RVs parked and then the Arkansas River which flows very nicely behind that. For the price that they charged over $100 it is not worth it I would highly recommend that you go down the road and find something else.

I'm not sure where the money goes This campground earns because they sure don't put it into the upkeep of their grounds. Deteriorating picnic tables, burned out campfire rings, dirty exterior of cabins, broken patio furniture, dock with uneven curling boards, dog poop everywhere along the river.... the bridge crossing over to the tent side of the campground seemed to be stable. And several mornings there was no toilet paper in the bathroom, also not sure why you would want to carpet a campground bathroom, but there is carpet . Highway 50 runs right next to the campground so you hear traffic, the river is beautiful and clean. I would seek another campground in the area before I stayed at Sweetwater again

One thing that really stood out was the customer service. When I first called, I was sent to an AI answering service, but Jenifer personally called me back afterward and went above and beyond to accommodate our family. That kind of personal attention really meant a lot to us. Throughout our stay, Jenifer, Rob, and Jessica were incredibly friendly, helpful, attentive, and accommodating. Rob and Jenifer do a fantastic job managing the resort. Everything is handled professionally, but they still create such a warm, friendly, family-oriented atmosphere. You can tell they genuinely care about their guests and about keeping the property in great shape. Jessica also put together an awesome Fall Festival while we were there, and our family had so much fun! The entertainment was great, and the live music was incredible. It made our stay feel like more than just a camping trip--it was a great family experience and something we'll remember. The resort itself is beautiful, clean, and very well maintained. The property sits right next to the Arkansas River, has plenty of shade, beautiful mountain views, and convenient access to the highway. It's also very dog friendly, which Bandit definitely appreciated! The prices were very fair, especially considering the location, amenities, beautiful setting, and level of customer service. A huge thank you to Jenifer, Rob, Jessica, and the rest of the Pleasant Valley team for making our family feel so welcome. We had an amazing time and would absolutely recommend Pleasant Valley RV Resort to families, couples, dog owners, or anyone looking for a beautiful and friendly place to stay in Colorado. We'll definitely be back!

The sites are large and allow for privacy and the use of canopies and other outside gear. Close to numerous Colorado attractions including Pikes Peak, Garden of the Gods, The Royal Gorge, etc. laundry and restrooms clean. Lots of wildlife and places in the RV park to walk. Couple of issues -road noise M-F from 7:00-4:00 as large trucks haul gravel from the quarry to town. The 2 lane road runs on the whole side of the resort. AND, we reached out to the advertised Colorado RV services to get some work done on our RV. They came by 2 times to meet with us but never gave us an estimate or touched base to schedule the work. We followed up numerous times. Our initial conversation was 7 weeks prior to our scheduled departure. This left a very bad taste in our mouths. Very bad customer service and follow up. We traveled in a 36 foot, class A.

These are the BEST two sites, there are two more fully facing on the river , but neither have trees on the site. Other than the 4 full facing river sites, the other sites either are not on the river, or only back up to the river, or are at an angle where most of the next site blocks the river view. Our sites (17&18) deserve 10 stars. Friendly staff, quiet place. ONE ISSUE: Laundry. This is not a small RV park, this is not an Overnight RV park. Only 2 of 4 dryers and 2 of 4 washers worked. Another guest told me that management/owners? told him they could not afford to replace the broken machines (Huh??) There were people waiting to use the machines. That's not a fun way to spend a day of our vacation. Surely they can buy new machines! We would definetly return, but only if we could be in Site 18 again (and we'd do a load of laundry before we arrived).

They have cabins, RV spots, and tent spots, so they're perfect for whatever type of camping you're looking to do. For amenities, they have indoor and outdoor pools, mini golf, a small playground, an arcade, laundry room, weekend meals, weekend outdoor movies, a rec center, tennis and basketball courts, shuttleboard, and a general store. They're pretty close to Salida as well, so you can go spend a day by the river and grab some pizza and ice cream (see my other reviews for hints). Cutty's cabins are amazing, I highly recommend them. They're a little pricey, but they have bathrooms and kitchens in them, plus awesome little back decks that overlook the creek. Weekends at Cutty's are amazing. Breakfast and dinner at Joe's make for easy packing, and movies with popcorn and candy sold nearby at night are a great way to end the day. My kids' favorite is to go mini-golfing and then grab some ice cream from the general store afterward. It's a summer tradition for us!
