Official Forest Service pageBlanco River Group Campground
The Blanco River Group Campground is a convenient stopping point between Chama, New Mexico, and Pagosa Springs, about 15 miles southeast of Pagosa Springs. This group campground offers one group site, accommodating up to 100 people but no individual sites. The river bottom area is fairly level, and four of the seven sites are suitable for large-sized RVs. Several large ponderosa pines offer shade, but the area is quite warm in summer. This spot is quite a gem as visitors get a mile of river to themselves, along with 15 acres of forest fenced off to play and camp in. Services include potable water, trash pickup, vault toilets, picnic tables, and fire grates. In addition, the group campground includes picnic sites with have banquet-sized tables, volleyball net posts, and horseshoe pits. Reservations required.
