Located on the Dolores river, this property is perfect for hikers, fishing, rafting, or just camping! There is a natural spring just a few miles from the location with drinking water as well. When you stay here you are located right on the river with nothing but places to hike, climb and have fun and there are several options for you to choose from. There is a cabin, an onsite RV, a canvas tent, and BYO tent or RV camping on the land - you can pick whatever suits you best! No matter what, you can fall asleep to the sound of the river after a great night of star gazing! Nearby outdoor points of interest include the Dolores River on property, Hanging Flume which is approx. 20 miles from site, Gateway Canyons Resort Auto museum 7 miles from site, Arches National Park 2 hour drive from site, Colorado national monument 1 hour drive.

My Gateway Cabin

First of all Jody went above and beyond in hospitality on her property! The property was peaceful and welcoming 🙏 and It was comfortable to be able to sit outside the city limits with a creek nearby. And at night no lights to ruin being able to see the beautiful stars at night. Absolutely worth staying here and she knows the great spots to go see the views at!

Wow

The host Jody was great. Made sure I had what it needed. Beautiful views, right on the river, solid walls for cold fall nights. She made sure I had a heater. Did a ton of fishing and exploring. Felt like you had the entire canyon to yourself. Loved it... so did my pup. Thanks!

River side camping

I had the best time with my two pups camping on Jodi property! The views were stunning! She was very considerate when I arrived making sure I had everything I needed; the land had plenty of space to explore and hike! Fantastic sunsets! I love the location next to the river! I will for sure be back; highly recommend to anyone else looking for a great camping experience.

My Gateway Cabin

Simply stunning views

Jody is a fantastic host!!! We saw the Cabin campsite, and it’s great, but since we have Skoolie and didn’t need the cabin, Jody suggested we stay at the more secluded site up the road. And that was a fantastic suggestion!!! No matter what, the views are stunning off 141. Gateway General Store has a bit of everything. We had clear Starlink access, and true peace and quiet. Awe inspiring views of the stars, gentle rumble of the river. We loved every minute. Be ware, it’s Colorado. So it’s dusty and we saw evidence of mountain lion and coyote. But if you want the experience, you stay vigilant. We will be back!!

My Gateway Cabin

Beautiful camping area! Jody was an amazing host and has the friendliest dog. The cabin was beautiful and even came with a tent set up next to it. Perfect getaway area with ample room for dogs to play and beautiful views.
