Customer Reviews
Very nice campground with tables, firering and vault toilets. Each site has a gravel pad for tent camping, a couple of pull through sites and several back in sites. Right next to a stream, but lots of cattle upstream so dont try drinking out of it. Great hiking and biking right from the campground. We biked to the top of the pass and back..very good dirt road with hardly any vehicles. Just a great area to enjoy Colorado.
Poso was a disappointment for us! No where to really hike, minimal acces to the water. Sooo much traffic on a very small road! Sites are wayyyyyy to close together!!
Had a great experience camping at the Poso Campground! Arrived on a Sunday afternoon in June and had the entire campground to ourselves for 3 nights. Access to ATV trails right from the campground to some amazing high meadows with aspens and views galore! The creek running nearby was great and there was minimal traffic on the county road. Also was able to mountain bike at Penitente Canyon Park with amazing trails and views not far away. We will be back to this little slice of heaven.
This is a primitive campground, but with bathroom near by. No water or hook ups but had fun camping here with my family!
We came here for an evening picnic. Very nice setting back in the mountains but easy to get to. Also had bathrooms, big plus!
