Tall Texan RV Park and Cabins

If you’re looking for a quiet, cozy, mountainous, ranch feel, the Tall Texan is the place for you! Bob and his staff are some of the nicest folks my wife and I have ever dealt with when it comes to RV parks. The RV sites are spacious and not right on top of each other which makes it absolutely fabulous! At the risk of making the Tall Texan more difficult to book a reservation at, I would have to say that if you have a chance, stay at the Tall Texan when you were in Gunnison! I have attached a few images of the campground itself, some portraits of a family I shot while up there.

I did a more detailed review on Yelp, but suffice to say, there are bigger pros than cons. I called them semi-cons in the other review. Overall, the place is well kept and clean. The women's bathroom was very clean. The men's needed some maintenance, but I reported the issue to the staff, so hopefully that will be addressed. Everyone, both staff and other visitors, were friendly and helpful. Our spot was flat and the staff member, Dave, who helped us park, was great. He knows how every spot is set up. It's not just rows of RVs, there's a method to how they all fit in their spots. It's shady, which is great. There are bugs, but there's water, so it's expected. We had birds on our roof, scrambling around in early mornings and evenings. Once we knew what they were, I asked about it, but we can't expect the park to discipline the birds! I read a review that complained about the cottonwood cotton floating. There are things that are not in the control of an RV park. If you're in nature, nature happens! If you don't want the shade of trees, there are plenty of parks that will bake you without shade and lots of concrete! We prefer nature. I noted in my other review that it was muddy. That is something that could be improved with more gravel in those areas (like the spot where we had to back in). It was muddy around the road in the park. It's not a big problem, but it would be appreciated to have more gravel when in monsoon season. Note that AT&T doesn't work well in this area of the state. WiFi was a bit spotty while we were there. So, if I could give 4-1/2 stars, I would. The cons are small, the pros are much bigger. We will come back if they will have us.

We camped in our TT for one glorious week!! We came up from Galveston County Texas & found ourselves in love with this quaint RV park. Close to town & so much activities. The beauty is unsurpassed. We took the free buss crested Butte & were amazed at the scenery. The staff at this RV park were ALL phenomenal & helpful!! Please if in this area check out the awesome park!!

OMG, such a find! Beautiful trees, 24-hour laundry, and showers that don’t cost anything. Excellent service and accommodation. It’s fenced in all around, so it feels very safe. This year it closes October 6, so be sure to check dates. Gorgeous, charming office building where you can sit and work– with a beautiful fireplace and pit, no less!

Unfortunately I can’t give Tall Texan cabins a better rate. I reserved a cabin to stay with my daughter since April. We got there and the cabin was so cute but the blankets , pillows and sheets smelled absolutely horrific. There is not doubt that nothing was washed and fresh. I could smell sweat on all of them but specially the pillows. All of them. I emailed them twice very politely on the experience we were having. However no one reached out to us that night neither the day after. We had to made a reservation at the comfort inn five minutes away and stayed there that night and paid $375 for the only available room there was. I got zero response from my emails. I highly recommend whoever stays there to check on the blankets and pillows. Bathroom towels smelled clean but nothing else. This is the worse customer service I ever experienced. And definitely the response from the owner/manager team proved my point oh how poor the customer service is.
