Rio Grande/Mogote

The Rio Grande Mogote in Antonito, Colorado is a unique geological formation located in the San Luis Valley. It is a large, flat-topped mesa that rises abruptly from the surrounding landscape. The mesa is composed of sedimentary rocks that have been eroded over time by the Rio Grande River. The top of the mesa is covered with grasses and shrubs, and the sides are steep and rocky. The Rio Grande Mogote is a popular destination for hikers, campers, and birdwatchers, as it offers stunning views of the surrounding area. The mesa is also home to a variety of wildlife, including mule deer, elk, and bighorn sheep.

Very clean campground. Sites on the lower loop were right on the Conejos River. Beautiful.

Beautiful camping area! We were in the lower loop, and had a nice private spot. There were a lot of mosquitos but it was well worth being next to the river that our kids really enjoyed playing in.

The camping spaces are large with easy pull through access for most of them. It has enough trees to keep the sun off of you but few enough that you can get sun if you want. The canp ground host keeps the bathrooms clean. It was a fun experience.

Great campsite with a varied layout for campsites, a few sites are pretty close together so be mindful on busy weekends/holidays. Great river sounds at all the lower sites. Host is super nice and knowledgeable on the area, would recommend it for it's proximity to so much southern Colorado has to offer.

Will not be back. I don't understand the high rating and good reviews. The place could be nice with some basic grounds keeping and maintenance, but it was very junky looking around our site. They parked us right in front of their storage/utility building where there was all kinds of junk placed haphazardly. Also junk in back of us against another building. We were right next to a small creek with stagnant, standing water, so mosquitos were so bad we couldn't be outside. They should have treated for mosquitos. The wifi password I was given did not work. The only positive is that we had sewer hookup and did not have a to go dump. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.
