This is a very nice little campground near Marble Colorado…read more The groundskeepers were so helpful and attentive. They gave me maps of the area and let me know about the firewood available for purchase ($7 at the time) There is a nice little stream that runs next to the grounds. Each site is equipped with a picnic table and permanent fire pit with attached grill. At one point a group of turkeys patrolled the site. Was super cute!

I emailed this KOA to inquire about the burn ban that was going on in the area. Per county rules,…read moreJetBoils ARE allowed but this campground told me I couldn't use them and suggested I get a cabin instead. So they're lying to try to make customers upgrade for an unnecessary cost. They should be embarrassed. If you don't want to allow JetBoils then say that but don't lie to make it sound like they're not allowed when the county says they're okay.

Sweet campsite at this KOA by the water. You can hear the River rushing down and creating this…read more"white noise" type of sound all times of the day. Super comforting during the night. It was super easy to check in and they were kind enough to let us check in early (11:45am) They do offer cabin rentals, RV sites and tent sites. Our Site: We got a tent site and it was pretty big. A bit bigger than the rest and it was perfect for our party of 4. You can only bring one tent and it has to be on the tent pad so extra tents or any tents placed other than the tent pad are not allowed. Which was a huge bummer. We were 2 couples with 2 tents and had to purchase a bigger tent to fit all of us in it to fit on the pad. All in all we made it work. Parking: You have to register all vehicles that are staying in the campsite and only one car is allowed per site, which is somewhat of an inconvenience. Any extra vehicles are $5 more. We were told to park the extra vehicle in the extra parking spaces that were far away from our site. Bathrooms and Showers: They only have Male and Female bathrooms and showers an no gender neutral bathrooms or showers, so it can be very uncomfortable for masculine presenting women to go to the bathroom. They did say they had just remodeled the entire place so they completely missed the opportunity to be more inclusive. However, the bathrooms were very clean, and the showers were really nice. We did bring our own bathroom tent to avoid any type of uncomfortable encounters when having to use the little girls room and were told we could not have it bc they were trying to grow grass and any bodily fluids would be harmful to the soil. So we had to put our toilet away :( Each site has a fire pit and the camp ground offers wifi and a little convenient store. They do come around every other hour or so on their golf-cars selling fire wood and making sure everyone is following the rules. I honestly loved this place and would come back. The town's nearby are gorgeous and the staff here is super nice.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this camp ground. Though they have had a name change. I notified…read moreyelp so hopefully yelp will soon reflect that as well. They are Marble RV park and campground now. We saw multiple marmot and also a friendly fox who was trying to find food. The fox drug off one of my friends shoes across our campsite and also some things from our neighbors were strewn over their campground. The tent areas were a little small probably enough room for one tent. At least at the site we had. Good thing we had 2 cars and were doing car camping. The host was friendly and did come in and check on us. The rates were good. If you know you are coming you might consider putting your reservation in, in advance. We did ours in may for august and slots were already filling up at that point. They have a nice bathroom with showers. They are well taken care of. There is a door lock with a key code to get in. Very beautiful views. Would definitely come back again.

Kebler Corner is one of those places you know is special the second you pull over. It sits along a…read morestunning stretch of Colorado landscape at celebrated Kebler Pass. Quiet. Cinematic. Effortlessly beautiful. This is the exact spot where you turn for the long, winding road toward Crested Butte, cutting straight through what is the greatest aspen stand in the world. I haven't been received by the hotel yet, but honestly, based on location alone, it's a future no-brainer. When those aspens go golden in the fall, this area is unreal. There's something magical about being right at the gateway to that drive. For anyone who loves Colorado the way New Yorkers love a great view and a great story, Kebler Corner already earns five stars.

I passed Kebler corner on my way from crested butte to Paonia. They have a little convenience store…read morethere at the campground area that sells snacks, drinks (including alcohol - they even had bottles of wine) and other souvenirs eg earrings and shirts. They have a nice clean bathroom that is only available to customers; I found a cute pair of earrings for $10 and used the bathroom before shipping out. The lady at the desk was really nice, a there was tons of parking in the gravel lot outside.

Great campground in Gunnison National Forest. It is on Forest Service Road 706, off county road…read more12, between Paonia and Crested Butte. There are 15 campsites (FCFS) plus a small parking area for day use. CR 12 and FSR 706 are not paved, but any vehicle can travel the roads. The highlight of the campground is Lost Lake, a pristine alpine lake at 9600' elevation. The Beckwith Peaks are in the background. If you paddle across the lake (SUP or kayak - no motorized water craft) you get a stunning view of the Ruby Range. (No Ruby Range photos since I didn't bring my waterproof phone case this trip). The lake is dammed and is filled with snow runoff. Even in midJuly, the water was COLD. No chance in h e l l I was going to let myself fall off that SUP! But midJuly was prime time for the wild flowers. Lupine. Queen Anne's lace. Wild rose. Pentsemon. Sneeze weed. Cow parsnip. Fire weed. Absolutely stunning. I'm told the lake is stocked twice annually with rainbow trout. But I don't fish so can't verify. I did see lots of fishermen though.

This campground was relatively easy to access, on a gravel road well-maintained. The camping spaces…read morewere not too crowded in on each other, and plenty of trees for shade. There are picnic areas with grills, bathrooms, and access to the lake for recreation. Plenty of trails for hiking by foot, or with horses. This place makes for a great one-day or multi-day visit.

Right from the moment we pulled into the parking lot, the sound of rushing water filled the air,…read moreand it didn't take long to find out why. The centerpiece of the park is this stunning trio of waterfalls--three streams of water pouring side by side over bright limestone cliffs, surrounded by the kind of lush greenery that feels almost tropical. It was like walking into a Colorado rainforest. Mist from the falls cooled the air, and everything around them felt alive--ferns, moss, chirping birds, and the occasional chipmunk darting across the path. The trails were surprisingly well maintained and easy to navigate. We started with the paved path that led right up to the base of the falls--perfect for just soaking in the view, and even wheelchair accessible. Then we took the Coyote Trail, which loops up around and behind the falls. That's where things got even more fun. The trail winds past a handful of small limestone caves, some of which you can crawl into and explore. One of them opened up into a surprisingly big cavern--we hadn't brought flashlights, but our phones did the trick, and the kids loved it. It felt like discovering secret chambers in a fantasy story. When we made it to the top of the falls, the view was totally worth the mild climb. You could look down and see all three cascades in full, framed by trees and cliffs. And with the mist rising in the sunlight, it felt absolutely magical--like something out of a painting. What I loved most was how much this park offered in such a compact space. Waterfalls, caves, trails, wildlife, creeks, picnic spots--everything felt close and accessible, but never crowded or rushed. It was peaceful, beautiful, and so well kept. Honestly, it's one of the best hidden gems I've stumbled upon in Colorado.

This is a worth while stop if you are traveling through the area. It was a scenic drive from I-70…read moreinto the park. I was traveling with my husband and relatives. Note: I detracted one star because all the picnic tables for day visitors have been removed to discourage that activity. The only tables in the park are for the camp sites. We pulled into an empty site, since we did not see tables elsewhere, to have a quick lunch. We got a talking to from one of the park employees that it was not permitted. We were nearly done with lunch so we finished quickly and removed ourselves, making sure the area was as we found it. We then parked up at the trailhead parking. It is a pleasant walk to the base of the falls. Then we headed up the stairs that take you behind the falls as well as to some caves. My husband and his brother did the hike up and around to the top. My sister-in-law and I found a nice shaded bench to enjoy the views while we waited for them to return. It was an overall good experience. I would go back.

A lot of subterfuge here. No sewer hookups, next to a busy HWY, about 30 feet from it. I stayed…read morefor three nights and was absolutely exhausted when I went home. I was relieved to be home. Even if you were next to the few sites that are next to the river the noise doesn't change. You could pull off on I-70 and get better rest and relaxation. I live on 5.5 acres in the Black Forest and realized I could RV better on my own property. Really a pity to waste the money and time to camp here. Life is too short. Had a mallet stolen from the RV as well. KOA workers are OK, but I wouldn't say inviting and warm. Carbondale is wonderful and the town and businesses there are great. That was the only upside.

Because of Patti we will never return to this KOA nor will we recommend it and our other reviews…read morewill reflect that. As a matter of fact, the owners will know too. Patti is very brash and rude in how she speaks to people! We didn't get in good when she snapped at us about having a dog in the office (ironically, we saw hers in the office as we checked out). Later, we were yelled at and treated like 5 year old's when she told us about burning in the fire pit. Yelled at like 5 year old's!!! What sane adult does that??? In regards to her comment to me in an email about fire "notices", no, there were no notices posted anywhere nor did "one of your employees come to the cabins and post notices". I know, I was there, all day, every day! NOTHING was posted on the door or window anywhere. After reading other reviews from previous tenants, Patti obviously does not know how to deal with people in an adult-like and respectful manner. In regards to Patti, I suggest...#1, she take several classes on customer service or #2, she needs to find another job that doesn't deal with people!!! The "manager" position does not work for her.

THE GOOD: The host just couldn't be nicer or more helpful. LOTS of open, nicely maintained lawn…read morespace. Good individual lawns at most campsites. Easy in and out and backing into the spaces is pretty easy. Quiet with lots of mature trees for shade. Surrounded almost exclusively by horse pastures. Relaxing! THE BAD: Not much. No fire pits at the campsites and we like a fire in the evenings. The WiFi doesn't cover the vast majority of the campsites. We like camping here but need connectivity for remote work sometimes. Wish the owners would make that investment and extend the WiFi coverage. We camp here two or three times a year and would likely be more, and for more nights, if there was WiFi. Perhaps if they put in fire pits they could make enough money selling firewood to partially pay for the WiFi?

Great place and very friendly people. I stopped here for an overnight stop in 2017 and the managers…read morewere very friendly and accommodating. Made me feel right at home. This year, 2019 I did not stay at the park but I did ask if I could stop and fill up my camper with Portable water and again they were very friendly and accommodating. I'll be back in the future.

This is a great trail with a beautiful river running alongside it the first mile is an easy walk…read morethrough mile two and then becomes moderate and trail starts to narrow and be less traveled by mile three. Then is a great view at mile 4 at 8000 ft elevation. We ran out of time and could not continue any further. It's an amazing trail. I want to thank the previous reviews. This helped us find the trailhead. It's an awesome hike.

This is a very awesome trail that is not very well known by tourists. We stumbled upon it…read moregeocaching and I could not believe that it is not more popular! It's up to a 7.2 mile trail out and back. You can go any distance you chose. I would rate this as a moderate trail. They allow camping after the first five miles of the trail. The end of the seven miles tops out at 10,000 feet. This trail is accessible from May through October. Good parking! We only went a mile up because of a thunderstorm rolling in. It was all along a river! Super beautiful !! I wish I had more time to hike the rest! Can't wait to come back and finish the trail!

Such a cool spot and definitely something you need to do if you are in Aspen! We went during spring…read moreoffseason, rented bikes from Velo E-bikes in Aspen (don't go anywhere else to rent but Velo - trust!!) and rode from Aspen all the way up to Maroon bells without a single hider or issue - even despite the misinformation we received from e-bike places we called around town. Highly recommend using e-bike versus manual bikes or walking there. In the summer they offer shuttle services to Maroon bells which would also make it easier to get there. I can imagine in the summer it's probably over saturated with people and busy. When we went it was beautiful, quiet, and serene. I wouldn't have wanted to be there any other time. The bike routes are well marked and we got to ride on the closed road all the way to the picnic area at the base of maroon bells. If you come to Aspen, you should absolutely factor this into your itinerary!

We hiked the Four Pass Loop, which was a very challenging trail with rewarding views. We did a…read morethree-night backpacking trip and camped at sites along the trail. There was a hefty amount of elevation gain. There were plenty of streams to filter water from with several river crossings as well as sketchy snow crossings where we lost the trail. Navigation was a challenge at times as there was limited signage. Even in July, which is the most recommended month to hike, the weather was dicey with some heavy afternoon thunderstorms. You do have to reserve your permits online far in advance and book bus tickets from Aspen as park parking is very limited. WAG bags were recommended, but not required when we went.
