East Fork Campground

A nice little somewhat secluded, but easily accessible campground about 10 miles northeast of Pagosa Springs. There is a Forest Service Road (gravel) that you take after getting off Hwy 160 for about a mile until you hit the campground. There are about 25 sites available, some overlooking the East Fork if the Sån Juan River. Many are well screened with picnic table and fire ring. Wood bundles are available from the campground høst for $10. I think the høst was named Jude and he was a gem. Sites were blown clean of debris and needles from the large Ponderosa Pines in the area. Although the restrooms didn't smell the best, they were clean. There were numerous paths down to the River as well. Would definitely stay here again. Made the reservations on recreation.gov. Have no i

Jude, host, was super nice and helpful. We enjoyed our stay. The mosquitos were pretty fierce but WalMart deet-free repellent kept them at bay. Beautiful area.

The East Fork Campgrounds are very beautiful. You will be completely immersed in the San Juan National Forest. The sites are very spacious and spread out. There are trails that lead down from the back edge of the campgrounds down to the San Juan River, though they can be a little steep in some areas. You can hear the river flowing from the campgrounds which provides an amazingly peaceful atmosphere. The vaulted toilets were clean and appeared to be well maintained. There are dumpsters available to deposit trash, and some of the sites have grills and picnic tables. I definitely will camp here again in the future.

It was our first time coming to Colorado to camp and boy were we glad we found this amazing site! Very clean, accessible, and conveniently spaced from town. Mary and buddy (the dog) were the campground hosts and they were amazing she kept everything clean and well stocked! Camping site has bathroom and toilet paper. Good place to camp and explore lots of trails and water!

Stayed almost a week in Aug, nice break from our TX heat. Our spot for our camper was quite uneven and tiny, but can't complain with how beautiful our view was.
