Campground Reviews

It is an ok KOA that tries hard but was just ok. We didn't realize it was 45 mins from Crested Butte, our destination for a few days.

This was one of the most enjoyable campgrounds I have stayed at. The staff were very helpful and friendly and the grounds and location were very nice.

Staff are friendly and responsive to requests but the goats and donkeys, although cute, were a bit of an annoyance to me given they leaving piles of poop.

We initially booked for 2 days but ended up extending to 4. The staff was very kind and accommodating, even letting us move sites early. We loved the animals, but would have appreciated the donkey poop being cleaned up from our campsite. I was also concerned about the condition of the donkeys’ hooves. They were in desperate need of a visit from the farrier. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

It was perfect! The camping cabins were just what we needed! The staff is very helpful and friendly, and all the farm animals add a special touch! Highly recommended if you’re in the area and need a campground.

Fantastic! This is a lovely campground. Our site was huge and shaded. The employees are very helpful and friendly. The added bonus is the miniature donkeys and the goats. All are free-roaming and dog friendly. You'll love it there!

Excellent campground, very friendly staff and a great location. Large grassy sites are very clean well maintained. I highly recommend staying at the Gunnison KOA.

Very noisy because of the early morning airplanes from the nearby airport, the animals (cows, donkeys, goats) and loud inconsiderate campers. Otherwise, the location is conveniently located near town, and the bathrooms with showers were great. The animals are cute and friendly too.

Lousy , awful. The tent site was not clearly marked for a night arrival even with a marked map it was difficult to find. The tent site was so close to the neighboring site that I could hear them talking and cussing and yelling at their dog way into the night. the spot top put tent was very uncomfortable wood chips. other neighbors were loud playing games at least past 2am. NO PICNIC TABLE??

I really liked that there was wild life and I got to see some air balloons from the campsite which was awesome. So happy there was restrooms and showers but they could have used a clean as there was hair all over the shower and blood on one of the toilet seats and one out of order. Generally it was a great stay for the night!

Online reservation was quick and easy. I got in late but they made it easy to find my info. The bathrooms were immaculate. When I left early I was surprised to see the cutest goats and ponys! I have never felt safer while camping.

the staff were awesome so my rating is not a reflection on them. The low rating is because: airport close by with commercial airlines taking off early in the morning. There’s a cow that constantly moos very loudly early mornings. There’s bathrooms and showers are not big enough to handle all the campers. The toilets wobble. Shower trickles water. Playground is small. Camp spots are close toget

Always a beautiful place. Very friendly staff.

Would be a 5 but having to share water and electrical pedestals was different. Luckly I had a splitter for the water. The roaming goats and donkeys was great for the grandkids. The grounds were well kept and the dirt roads watered to keep dust down.

Tent camping spots worked out for our pick ups with trailers (pulling SxS’s). Staff was friendly!

This is one of my favorite campgrounds. It’s clean and welcoming. Everyone is friendly, even the farm animals. It’s conveniently located to the town of Gunnison, Blue Mesa Reservoir, the town of Crested Butte, Taylor Reservoir. The Gunnison River Park is an easy walk from the campground. The spaces are nice. The grassy areas are beautiful. A lot of TLC goes into the care of the grounds.

We absolutely love spending our summers at the Gunnison KOA. We feel so at home here and love the large campsites. We also love the donkeys, goats and occasional pigs that wander around! Dave and Susie are the best and very accommodating! Thank you!!!!!

The owner is the best part!!!

Very cute campground. Love the shade trees & grass & animals. If we are ever in that area again, we will definitely stay there.

Excellent campground! Lots of green grass and spacious sites. The staff is very accommodating if you need help with anything. I highly recommend this campground if you’re in the area!

Spacious sites, very quiet, fun donkey's and goats roaming around interacting with guests. The grass spaces were a plus too, very well maintained and no animal poop in sight! All the staff were very helpful and friendly....and answered immediately to our site when we needed help. Thanks Dave, Susie, Sue and the rest of the staff for making this such an enjoyable stay!

We were in double wide site, which gave us plenty of room. The grass was wonderful, the donkeys, pony and goats entertaining. Very nice and helpful staff. Easy access to town. Would recommend.

While the goats, donkeys and horses wandering the campground may appeal to families and city folk, it is not relaxing for those of us already familiar with farm animals to clean the scat from our campsite just to walk around. Location is great and the staff works very hard.

Nice quiet park. Very well kept. Love the grassy parking spots and the free roaming goats and donkey. The hosts were very friendly.

I never met Susie but she was helpful in arranging the stay. Dave was SO very helpful getting me set up. Cannot take a hot shower, tepid at best. Burros got into my food and pooped in my site, interesting touch, but are pests roaming free.

We were very thankful for the owners and all he did in helping us move our tow dolly and just overall friendly and happy. We will definitely be back. The grass is beautiful. It was extremely peaceful and relaxing. The donkeys, horses and goats are incredible. We apprecieated everything and will be back! Recommend this KOA highly. Best ever! Wayne and Tami Latka

Our stay at the KOA in Gunnison was amazing! The staff went above and beyond to help us out when we had some issues with our vehicle. They helped make a stressful travel day into a wonderful family camping trip filled with great memories. We will absolutely be back next summer and probably for years to come. Thank you!!

Loved the donkeys coming around each day.

Perfect - our first trip and we will return. Love Dave and his attention to the grounds and especially the animals.
Jun 27, 2025
Love it and the staff was very helpful. We didn’t have the right 50 to 30 amp converter and they came out at 10pm to bring us one. Thank you! Oh! And the donkeys were pretty awesome too!
Jun 26, 2025
We had a great 8 night stay. It couldn't have been better. Dave and the crew were so nice and helpful and the animals were a blast. We will definitely be back.

Owner Sue was not as friendly as expected, but her husband David was a pleasure! They have high expectations for guests and keep a well maintained campground with beautiful green grass! Would stay here again

The place is really awesome, well groomed and taken care of grassy sites. Things for the kids to do minus a pool, we loved the little petting zoo type atmosphere. Place was very clean. Would go again, just take head that you can not check in early. They would not let us even park on the lot to wait until the 2 pm check in. That is our only complaint.

We were in a shaded corner spot with other family members. It was great!

Helpful friendly staff, nice camp spot with soft earth easy to push tent pegs into. Bathrooms clean and tidy, and good showers.

Really enjoyed our stay! Beautiful location and the farm animals make the stay unique!

Overall, the stay was good! Quiet area and good spaces to set up the tent. My only complaint was the men’s restroom. There was black mold throughout the grout of the shower and on the shower curtain, which was really gross. My wife said the women’s restroom was very nice, so still giving the koa 4 stars. Overall, I’d return again, but really hope to see a refresh on the bathroom!

A very well maintained family forward park! Lots of kids and family enjoying themselves, it was nice to see. The animals were a delight, ( goats, burros, horses…) Just an over nice place to be. And in the center of all things Colorado !! Thank You KOA!

Gunnison is a beautiful, relaxing oasis! We love it there. Can’t wait to return a third time. Love the grass, the donkeys, and the goats.
