About PLATORO CABIN 2

Federal campground in Colorado.

Nestled in the heart of Colorado's stunning national forest landscape, Platoro Cabin 2 offers a serene escape for those seeking authentic mountain camping experiences. This national forest gem provides the perfect basecamp for exploring some of Colorado's most pristine wilderness areas, where towering pines frame dramatic mountain vistas and clear alpine air invigorates the soul.

The location itself is a traveler's dream, situated where natural beauty meets accessibility. The surrounding national forest offers endless opportunities for outdoor adventure, from peaceful hiking trails that wind through aspen groves to more challenging mountain routes for experienced trekkers. Fishing enthusiasts will find excellent opportunities in nearby streams and alpine lakes, where mountain trout await patient anglers. The area's natural hot springs and scenic overlooks are popular attractions that draw visitors from across the region, offering both relaxation and breathtaking photo opportunities.

What truly sets this area apart is its accessibility to diverse outdoor experiences without feeling overcrowded. Unlike larger commercial campgrounds, this national forest setting maintains a peaceful, intimate atmosphere where you can genuinely disconnect and reconnect with nature. The cabin accommodation option provides a comfortable middle ground between tent camping and full RV hookups, ideal for travelers who want a real outdoor experience with some creature comforts.

The surrounding region offers surprises for every type of traveler. History buffs will appreciate the rich mining heritage visible throughout the area, while nature photographers find endless inspiration in the dramatic landscape. Families enjoy the manageable day hikes and wildlife viewing opportunities, where mule deer, elk, and various bird species can often be spotted. During different seasons, the area transforms completely, from wildflower-filled meadows in summer to stunning golden aspens in fall.

This location works wonderfully for RV travelers seeking a slower pace, outdoor-minded families looking for adventure, retirees exploring Colorado's natural wonders, and anyone craving authentic mountain experiences far from urban hustle. The nearby small towns provide basic supplies and services while maintaining their authentic mountain community character.

We stayed in #6 in late August for a fly-fishing trip. The rooms are clean and comfortable - no frills, but everything you need: fridge, oven, microwave, coffee maker, etc. The management is better than 5-star. Wi-fi access was indispensable in an area where there is no cell coverage. Platoro is a quitet, sleepy, little town nestled between two mountains with a reservoir fed by the Conejos riv...

Wi-fi access was indispensable in an area where there is no cell coverage. Platoro is a quitet, sleepy, little town nestled between two mountains with a reservoir fed by the Conejos river so there is plenty to do. The August weather was unbeatable!

We booked the $60, 1 room with a bathroom and small fridge. It’s very clean, bedding was clean, so quiet. Check in was friendly and fast. The lodge was so nice with coffees you can purchase. Highly recommend these little rooms.

My wife and I stayed in Cabin #4 in the end of August. Pros: The owners were nice and helpful. This is always a plus. The cabin was rustic, not frilly. We enjoyed it - clean and comfortable and had what we needed. The country around the area is beautiful - it's over 10,000 feet so it was cool at nights.

This is always a plus. The cabin was rustic, not frilly. We enjoyed it - clean and comfortable and had what we needed. The country around the area is beautiful - it's over 10,000 feet so it was cool at nights. There is fishing access to the Conejos River along Forest Rd 250 (the road you come in from coming from Chama). Cons: It's hard to tell from the pics but the cabin is not near the river. We had to drive to it to fish. There was no nice porch or sitting area outside our cabin. There were picnic tables outside but they weren't shaded. Besides a single plastic chair there was no outside furniture to sit on. The views of the mountains was limited to ones covered with trees so there was no wildlife viewing from the cabin area. We had a good time there and I would recommend this place as long as it is understood what the area is like.

Absolutely Hands Down My FAVORITE PLACE on Earth!! The owners Fred & Deb are super nice and take care of their guests. Cabins are cozy, comfortable, and well maintained. Great Base Camp with access to hundreds of miles of hiking trails, ATV Trails, Fishing, Horse Back Riding. If you are looking for God's Country- This is It! Five Stars All The Way!

We spent a week here for our 5th anniversary and loved every second of it! Amazing views, great cabin, fun fishing and hiking, and Debbie and her family (and dogs) are the nicest people in Colorado! The drive in on FSR 250 was a little daunting at first, but once you get used to it, it’s no big deal. Can’t wait to come back!!!
