Nice quiet camping spot. Large space. Bathrooms were in excellent condition & right across the road. Very little cell service on Verizon. Wouldve loved to have spend a few more days!

We were very disappointed with the campground host. Bathrooms were filthy and half the time there was no toilet paper. And the two single hole toilets make it very challenging when the campground is full.

Camp Host kept the camp areas and toilets extremely clean, was friendly and helpful. Very quiet during our visit. Only issue was smelly smoke from neighbor's campfire, otherwise one of the best National Forest CG's we've stayed in.

This was a lovely site. The camp host was fantastic - very kind and on top of everything. We were able to have a fire and enjoyed the site. The toilets were clean and the sites were very well kept. We were in site 14. It was big and private. We could walk down to the river from our site. There were some mosquitos but not unbearable.

Great Host! Very clean restrooms. We love this site!

The campground was very clean. The location is secluded and quiet.

Pit toilets and park facilities were well maintained. Sites need bigger tent pads.
@DakotaD764FD33 · Camped on Jun 19, 2025 at Campsite #21
Very nice campground. Lots of space. Well maintained. Sheltered from the wind.

East Fork is a beautiful camping experience. Camp host Jude is a true professional and takes pride in the look and feel of the campground. His easy-going manner adds to the peaceful atmosphere of the campground.

Nice campground, friendly and helpful Host. Restroom very clean. The campsites have lots of shade and pine trees. In early June the Pine pollen was out! Only 10 miles to town. Over all great experience and would return.

Campground was super clean! Campground host was friendly.
@ElizabethM1936 · Camped on Jun 7, 2025 at Campsite #18
Beautiful campground. Camp hosts care for the campground was amazing. Well maintained with clean sites and bathrooms!
@MarjaM102FDCBC · Camped on May 30, 2025 at Campsite #18
Visited end of May, campground was great! Cell service was terrible (we're camping, this is a good thing!) but what made this visit really stand out was the obvious dedication and joy that the camp host took welcoming and maintaining the entire campground! Every site had been carefully raked and prepared for every visitor. The toilets were immaculate, right down to the five star toilet paper point fold on every roll. Five stars - more if we could give them. Thanks for the great stay!

Beautiful location! Jude was an excellent helpful camp host and bathrooms were the cleanest I have ever seen. Geocache nearby, San Juan River is a short walk, and lots to explore in the woods. Short drive to Pagosa Springs but far enough away for peaceful solitude at camp. Campsites are spaced far apart so we rarely saw anyone else at site 24 during a busy weekend. Very quiet. Lots of shade! Tell Juan we say hi. We will return.
@DayrelG4908D4E · Camped on May 20, 2025 at Campsite #25
Beautiful campground with back-in and pull-beside sites. Many sites are near the small canyon where the river flows, so you can hear the river splashing along. The road between the highway and the campground entrance is washboard; just take it slowly.
@TimL9352546 · Camped on Sep 20, 2024 at Campsite #21
Sights were well maintained - campground host was helpful and friendly.
@JEFFH5417641 · Camped on Aug 31, 2024 at Campsite #5
The campground was clean and quiet. The bathrooms were the cleanest we have ever experienced in a campground. And the Host was helpful and extremely nice! Cant wait to visit again!
@DebraC1743C063 · Camped on Aug 30, 2024 at Campsite #10
Campground was great, and very clean. Only problem was the trailers hauling ATV and OTVs going up and down road early in am and late at night.

This site is special. A generous amount of room to spread out when you arrive combine with mature trees and the sound of the river next to you make it a little bit of heaven.
@MeganS28FC967C · Camped on Jul 11, 2024 at Campsite #11
The water from the pump was quite sulphorous. We saw the sign saying water was tested monthly and exempt from chorlination requirements, but it would have been nice to know to expect the smell. The reservation website could also mention the hand pump is quite a work out
@JohnG7676070 · Camped on Jun 19, 2024 at Campsite #21
We love East Fork campground near Pagosa Springs. Very clean restrooms, the sites are beautiful. It did rain quite a bit, but that happens when camping.
@MarkJ8680764 · Camped on Jun 17, 2024 at Campsite #1
Campground host very helpful and friendly. The bathrooms were very clean and campsites were well laid out. One thing we notice was a lack of flat tents spots . Would definitely go back .
@SusanW3089432 · Camped on Jun 3, 2024 at Campsite #15
We were very disappointed with our tent camping experience. The big problem was there was no water. The pump close to our site had no pump handle so was inoperable. My husband searched walking all over the campground until another camper told him of another pump. He could barely pump the handle, to get a trickle of water, and he is not a weakling. The camp host was not around, maybe his day off. Other campers (rv) said they brought their water, or were going to town the next day to get some. We had tent camped the previous night at Target Tree campground in the same national forest and rated it 5 star.
@JamesR5751753 · Camped on Jun 3, 2024 at Campsite #1
I have stayed at this site with no problem. The new camp host ran a noisy generator and my time was changed from 7 days to 3 days.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
