My wife and I stayed for 3 months while she worked in Alamosa, and overall, we were very happy with our stay, and after having stayed in a campground in Massachusetts for three months immediately following, we REALLY appreciated the price of their monthly rate ($5xx/month). The place is very clean, and that's due to the hosts' (Ron and Deb) constant work. They've been there for three years and pretty much run the place for the owner, who isn't on site. Ron can be a bit forward with help and advice, and I was even a bit insulted when he offered twice to back my rig in for me (I'm 26 years old with a 38' fifth wheel) as I've been hauling trailers since I was 16 on the thoroughbred farm I grew up in, but during our stay, I realized he sees a lot of people who either damage the sites or really struggle to back in at a 45 degree angle, and once he saw me whip back into my spot and handle things with my rig over the course of the following month, he began to see I could handle the responsibility. My wife and I just slowly figured out Ron is super friendly, always looking to help, and wants to make sure the newbies don't make the same mistakes he's seen over the years, so thanks Ron! You'll find ample space to walk your dogs, and even see quite a bit of wildlife in the park, especially deer. Oh, and they have a pretty legit dog park. All the sites are level and constantly maintained. The water system is checked yearly by a water specialist, and the water pressure is a solid 45 PSI with heated spigots during the winter. The campground WiFi is even very good (30+MBPS down, 6 UP), as well as both Verizon and AT&T. It's very, very windy in South Fork. You won't really hear it inside your camper, but if you open a door outside and you're not ready, you could lose it. It slowly got to me to the point where any breeze just pissed me off. Overall, SOLID place to stay that's close to skiing and a lot of hiking.
