Cimarrona

About

Cimarrona Campground is located in the San Juan National Forest at the end of Forest Road 640, above Williams Creek Reservoir. The campground sits alongside Cimarrona Creek with views across meadows toward the reservoir. All 21 sites are available first-come, first-served, with a mix of sunny and shaded options. Several sites can accommodate larger RVs up to 35 feet, though no hookups are available. Facilities include potable water, two vault toilets, picnic tables at each site, fire grates, and trash pickup. The campground is adjacent to the Cimarrona Trailhead, providing access to hiking in the surrounding wilderness. Creek fishing is a short walk away, and Williams Creek Reservoir offers both motorized and non-motorized boating opportunities. The campground operates from May through September at full services. From late September through October, limited services are available at half-price fees. Between November and May, the campground remains open but with no services including no water, trash pickup, or restroom access. Quiet hours are 10pm to 6am, and generator use is limited to one hour at a time.
