Although we saw some negative reviews about this location, we were very pleased. Staff was spectacular. Super friendly. Very helpful.
The campground is very conveniently located to ouray. We stayed in site 20. It was electric and water only but very nicely situated with close proximity to main building and bathhouse. But it still had privacy.
Would recommend staying in sites 2-9, 12 to 18, 20, or 30-37. As we drove in, we thought 2 - 9 would not be optimal but they back up to a beautiful running creek. Although they are electric and water only.
This KOA includes a restaurant, laundry, coffee shop, and a nice camp store.

KOA Has long been known as a higher cost RV site. We have used KOA only as the last resort. We came in late last night to the Ouray KOA and saw that we would have to pay $63 to stay for the night. This is about twice as much as we’ve paid it other private campgrounds. In the morning when checking out I found out that there was an additional eight dollar charge for a ‘resort fee’ and $10 from Ouray county. Total with tax $84.44. Neither of these fees is posted on the price sheet. The price we paid was only for water and electricity. Dump station is listed at $25. Guess the environmental fee doesn’t cover that. As I said we stay at KOA only as a last resort. This visit has confirmed it.

They have a coffee shop, live music on weekends, restaurant, they deliver ice or firewood, they also pick up your trash! Every staff member was kind and courteous.

Was worried after reading some of the reviews. The new owners are doing a great job. Clean sites, easy to get in to, level, plenty of room between sites. Great friendly staff.

Sadly, this KOA has fallen far from its previous glory of 10 years ago. New owners have doubled both tent and RV capacity without adding a square foot of additional land mass. Long lines in unsatisfactory restroom facilities . . . I wonder if the County Land Use department is aware of the camper capacity without adequate restroom facilities?? Someone should take a look as these folks have crowded too many campers into a small space that may present fire and safety hazards. Much better off in a National or State campground . . . NEVER again=/

Stayed here 1 night between our boondocking spots to "rehuman" ourselves.
It is an OK spot, nothing fancy, ok for one night to do laundry, shower, dump tanks and get me the hell out of this crowded , fancy wanna be camp =)
Also a little overpriced for what it is but will do in a pinch.
Just remember, not all KOA's are created equally, some are nice and some not so much. This one is somewhere in the middle.
Hope this helps.

Attentive nice staff, close proximity to town but very underwhelming grounds. Would have been acceptable at half the price.

It was located a ways out of town in an area without much to do (no hiking, sites, etc.). But the main reason we wouldn't stay there again is this place tried to charge us $15 to use the dump station! We were paying guests (paying $83/night for an RV site, including undisclosed added fees like a "resort" fee). Their website doesn't disclose that they'll charge you for the dump station, which at any normal campground is always included. And no one mentioned it, it's not in their booking info email, there are no signs, etc. They basically just came by and tried to charge us after we had already used the dump station. It's basically extortion. I think they just think they can get away with it because campgrounds are so full in the summer and they don't feel like they need repeat customers because there is enough demand. But avoid this one if you can.

You’re greeted at your campsite with three complementary logs in your fire pit as a hello. Each site is decent size level with its own fire pit, and we had one that backed up to the stream that runs through the middle.

You’re greeted at your campsite with three complementary logs in your fire pit as a hello. Each site is decent size level with its own fire pit, and we had one that backed up to the stream that runs through the middle. It’s set in the mountains and far enough away from 550 that there is no road noise. We absolutely loved this campsite. They communicate a lot through text message, which was nice to be able to order ice or firewood or propane and have it delivered directly to your site. The only downfall, which they are currently working on fixing, is there is no Wi-Fi. They do not have campsite wide Wi-Fi, only limited access in the cafe or office. But as I said, they are currently erecting a net work so each campsite has access.

I have to agree with the last reviewer on some things as we had similar experiences.
Site quality - We were at the very back in a field where RVs were parked every which way. We did have full hookups and were away from the dirt road (plus) but it was not a site just a field with shared hookups. Very odd.
Roads/Parking- The entire park is dirt and they do not go around with a water truck. It is extremely dusty. They need a water truck. Also, when you pull in you have to drive through the check in and half the time the road is blocked by campers checking in. There is no other way to get to your site. There is also no parking for laundry or restaurant (that I saw).
Cell Service/WIFI - Did not work where we were at the back of the park. We have a booster and I could get a bit of AT&T during the day but had a hard time working.
Amenities - None that I saw. No playground or other things for kids if you're looking for that. Laundry machines are OLD.
Staff- We went to the restaurant on a Sat night when the park was sold out and they only had 1 poor woman working the entire place. It was a disaster. I also tried to get a burrito one morning at 7:30 and they weren't ready (menu said burritos from 7-8am). Other than that, they seem to be on top of picking up trash from your site and trying to help.
Noise - They were on top of 10pm quiet hours. No other noise.
I know they have new owners so maybe things will be better next year?
