Highway Springs Campground
Pagosa Springs, Colorado · Private campground · books through the park office, directly.
Highway Springs Campground is one of the privately operated parks in the Pagosa Springs area. It sits about 172 miles southwest of downtown Denver as the crow flies, with Pagosa Springs as the nearest supply town on our board.
Campers rate it 4.3 of 5 across 27 reviews on RVParks.us, our sister directory, where the photo sets and firsthand reports live.
This is a proper haul: the route runs out the US-285 corridor through the Platte River country, and the smart play is treating the drive as day one of the trip. Fuel and grocery stops get thinner the farther you get from the metro, so leave stocked, watch afternoon weather over the high ground, and arrive with daylight to spare.
It sits near 8,438 feet, high enough that summer nights drop hard after sunset. Shoulder season here is gorgeous and lightly booked; just confirm the operating dates before a spring or fall trip.
Full hookups are the default at private parks like this one, which is exactly why big rigs and long stays favor them. Expect power, water and sewer at the site, and ask about pull-through pads if backing a trailer isn't your favorite spectator sport. Wifi and laundry usually make the amenity list too.
Booking a Site Here
Book straight with the park. Private parks hold inventory later than the reservation sites, keep longer seasons, and a phone call often finds a weekend pull-through the internet swears is gone. Expect full hookups as the default and ask about long-rig sites if you're bringing anything over 35 feet.
Pairing It With a Camper
From Denver, treat this one as a proper road trip leg. Most renters pick the camper up in the metro and make the drive part of the trip; long-haul delivery can be quoted with lead time. Reserve the site in your own name first, then match the rig to the pad length and hookups. Our camper listings state length, tanks and power draw plainly, and we answer campground fit questions all day.

What Campers Say
★★★★★Very clean campground and for the most part the sites have good separation for each other. My favorite sites are number 1 and number 12. There are restrooms that are OK clean And there is a dumpster that is for registered campers only. All are first come first serve.
★★★★★Since last year when we discovered this campground, it has already become a favorite. It's a basic campground, no running water, but the restrooms are always the cleanest in this little valley. If you love to fish, this is the place to park your rig. Many trails lead to the river, and the views are always fabulous.
★★★★☆We drive a 36 foot motorhome. There are many narrow spots and low hanging branches to look out for. The upper loop had too many obstructions for our motorhome. The lower loop was accessible but the road down to the lower loop is a little steep. The lower loop had 4 spots that would accommodate our rig.
