About this campground

Mavreeso Campground is located on the West Dolores Road (Forest Road 535), which branches north from Colorado Highway 145 about 20 miles northeast of Dolores. It is a great place to relax and enjoy the outdoors by hiking, biking and fishing. The campground offers single-family sites, a few of which have electric hookups. A group site can accommodate up to 40 people. Accessible picnic tables, campfire rings and grills are provided, as are vault toilets and drinking water.

The West Dolores River offers fishing for brown, rainbow, cutthroat and brook trout. A parking area is available for fisherman. Several parcels of private property are found along the river. Visitors are asked to stay on the trail and not trespass. Mountain biking is allowed on Forest Roads 532 and 535. Forest Service Trail 624 begins two miles south of the campground.

What campers say

Small, well-kept USFS campground of about 19 sites on the West Dolores River. Many sites are spacious and some sit right on the water, with wooden picnic tables, metal fire rings and easy river access for fishing. Bathrooms are vault/pit toilets that reviewers describe as clean and lighted. Water is available at spigots but a few visitors reported clarity/odor issues, so bring backup water if concerned. A volunteer host is regularly praised for upkeep. Electric hookups exist (often charged separately) and winter season reduces services. Expect limited cell service, occasional road traffic on County Rd 38, and a quiet, remote feel.
