Here’s the review Jenn wrote on Campground Reviews:

As close to Mesa Verde as you can be!

We totally lucked out and got the most massive site in the park, complete with a full view of Mesa Verde. It was absolutely wonderful in that regard. The other sites near us were not so spacious. Water pressure was pretty low (about 35 psi) so we just filled up our tank and ran off of that. They also need to trim some of the trees the park is named for, as it was a little hard to navigate some of the roads with our 40′ motorhome. The main draw is to visit Mesa Verde National Park. The visitor center and entrance station were very close, allowing us to make nearly daily trips to check out the park at different times of day. There are other national monuments within easy driving distance as well. We camped at Ancient Cedars Mesa Verde RV Park in a Motorhome.

The weather was a bit changable:

Since this was a new state for us, after we had slept there the first night, we were able to add a new state to our map:

After visiting the Mesa Verde National Park, we could add that sticker too:

As Jenn mentioned, our site was the largest in the park:

Other RV sites weren’t so large:

A nice old barn and a view of the mesa:

The office:

Cabins:

A hot tub:

The pool was closed for the season:

A nice mini golf course:

And a very large dog park with agility obstacles:

A central open area:

Next to our site was a community fire pit, but (fortunately for us) it wasn’t in use due to a fire ban:

Our site again:

The ground was covered with these little flowers:

The utilities weren’t ideal; a bit far, low water pressure, and not a good seal on the sewer:
