I actually lived here for several months as a tent camper. E.M. is an moron. Over the four months I stayed there, I showered with hot water each morning. There is about a 2 minute learning curve on how to turn it on and sometimes it takes a minute for the water to heat up... just ask the office attendant if you are confused. There was always paper towels and if there wasn't, you can ask the office attendant and they'll bring some more, or a clean towel if they are out of paper towels. The staff do regular checks of the restrooms but don't have ESP, let them know if you need something. You have a ton of room to yourself, there is a large building for parties, receptions, dances, etc. There are also gigantic charcoal barbecues. There is a very clean, nice pool with a deep and shallow side, a nationally registered landmark fossil bed, hiking, bouldering, mountain biking, and the authentic wild west outlaw cabin of Wild Bill McKenny of Quantrill's Raiders, which you can actually walk around and explore. There are both wooded areas and open field areas the campsites are located on. Again, if you don't like something, let them know and they'll accomodate you. The ranch is not lush, it is arid, but it is also beautiful and gives you the reason for Colorado's namesake as the soil and rocks are a red hue (Colorado = Color Red). Whiners like E.M. who can't figure out how to operate shower knobs, are suprised there are cows on a ranch, and didn't expect there to be dust and wind outside should probably not be camping. read more
