The Matterhorn was a nice quiet spot, close to Telluride and easy to access.

The campsite we reserved was completely unusable for tents. The showers were also ice cold.

We really enjoyed our time at Matterhorn. It is a smaller campground with beautiful views, nice tree cover, and solid amenities. We appreciated the cleanliness of the bathrooms and also how well ventilated they were. On-site hosts were friendly, as well. We had site 27 which was on the perimeter and felt very private. The only pseudo-negative was occasional highway noise, but really only when large vehicles went by.

After driving all day it is so wonderful to have a reservation and takes so much pressure off of me knowing that i have somewhere to sleep. This campground was gorgeous and quiet and close to hikes and paddleboarding. i think it's more like 10 miles from the roundabout than 7 and i think the directions said 7.

Campsite was a bit small but backed up to forest, which was nice. Showers are free. Be aware that if you share campsite with another family, both families will be charged full price. This was not posted on the website and the bathroom bulletin board suggested that second family should be charged 50% if they have only vehicle and tent. Conflicting info. But FYI. Otherwise it is a decent campground near trout lake and very near galloping goose trailhead for hiking/mountain biking.

One of the best NFS campgrounds I have visited. Even hot showers!
