It was still cold and snowy in April, but the resort had much to do. We ate at the onsite restaurant which was very good. All the buildings were new and pretty. In the summer they rent out airstreams and Conestoga wagons to glamp in! The town of Granby had groceries, etc if needed. It was at an elevation of 7,880. We also headed south on US 40 to Denver and did fine crossing Berthoud Pass, just taking it slow.

This place has everything! Bowling, an amazing pool and hot tubs, super clean facilities, full hookups, rent an airstream or chuckwagon for the weekend, stay in a tiny home - really, there’s so much to do especially for families. Our site (308) had an outdoor kitchen area, nice firepit and chairs, and outdoor table and chairs.

We stayed here for 2 weeks from mid June 2022 to early July. We were really pleased with the cleanliness of the site we were in (#151) as well as the grounds / landscaping and pretty much all areas of the resort BESIDES the bathrooms. The pool was enjoyable, but lacked adequate seating/furniture for a resort this size. The atmosphere was festive and fun for all ages. The fitness center was very large and had nice equipment, but lacked in cleanliness. The bathrooms were just really really bad. Even after bringing up the horrible conditions (with photos as proof) to the staff, the house-keeping did not change. That was really disappointing as everything else seemed to be really, really great. There were lines of people standing outside the comfort stations on multiple occasions for the bathrooms/showers. Again, for a resort this size there really needs to be more bathrooms/showers. Be prepared to shave with cold water. It was nice having the small grocery store on-site and the recreation (Rocky Mountain National Park) in the area is unparalleled. It's a beautiful place to stay, we just wish the shower situation would be addressed as we'd love to go back to this area.

It is just a few minutes outside of Rocky Mountain National park and had plenty of lakes and forests around it for paddle boarding and hiking.
Also the staff was all so kind when we went!

This park has everything you need to not leave your entire stay but if you are the adventurous type it’s close to a lot of outdoor activities to enjoy. We balance our week between both. Some days we just wanted to relax and enjoy the heated pool and other days we went to Rocky Mountain NP or take an off-road adventure. If you love the outdoors but don’t want to give up your comfort of feeling at home this is the place. Quite at night as well with wonderful temperatures to keep the windows open as you sleep. We will definitely return next year for another trip.

Very big campground with large concrete slab sites. Within 25 minutes of Rocky Mountain National Park. We were there for July 4th week/weekend so lots of fun going on and a decorated golf cart parade. :)
Friendliness: Staff were mostly friendly and accommodating.
Sites: Brand new, nicely maintained sites. Fairly level. Upgraded sites have paver patios, a refrigerator, stone fireplaces, and great views of the lake(s).
Location: Lots to offer on-site (food, games, basketball court, pickle ball courts, several large dog parks, etc). Town is within 5-10 minutes of the park entrance. Gas within a couple of minutes from the park.
Wifi: You won't likely be able to stream movies (maybe if there aren't many people in the park you could) but the wifi was decent enough for working speeds on a vpn.
Laundry: Facilities were very clean and new. The washers all performed really well where the dryers actually dried our clothes properly on one cycle.

Huge place just outside Granby that has just about every amenity you can think of. In addition to RV and tent sites, they have Airstreams, Conestoga Wagons, Cabin/Tiny Homes, and Villas for rent, and are in the process of installing "Adventure Tents" and Yurts. Also a pool, 3 hot tubs, Tavern, Bar/Grill, General Store, Fitness Center, lawn games, Sport Court Complex, arcade, mini bowling, live music on weekends, special events, playgrounds, dog parks, golf cart rentals, lake, fishing, SUP/Kayak rentals. Beautiful surrounding views.
Clean, well maintained, great customer service. You can have firewood/ice, and more delivered directly to your site. While the nightly rate was more than we usually like to pay as full-timers, this was all I could find with availability near Rocky Mt. National Park when I was looking for a spot earlier this year. At this park you definitely get what you pay for, though, and we enjoyed our stay.

Staff all very friendly, patient and helpful. We don’t stay in campgrounds often, but this place was very nice, with well taken care of grounds. What also interested us was the had tiny homes with very nice views of the mountains that would be an awesome base camp to explore RMNP and the surrounding area

Easy drive to RMNP, Grand Lake, Lake Granby, Winter Park, Fraser, and all the great dirt roads in the area that lead to great hikes. The resort itself provides plenty of activities, it’s quiet at night and there is a security officer that patrols the grounds. We have a 31 ft. bumper pull with one slide out and we have had no problem getting into the back-in sites. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. No crowding at this resort, you have a large, clean campsite. Can’t wait to stay there when the fall colors start changing. Free WiFi or you can pay to upgrade.

I know most people tend to write reviews when it’s either really good or really bad, this one is the latter I’m afraid. River Run is a great vacation spot if you like living in a construction zone, mediocre/inedible food, dirty cabins, and not so very friendly staff. Upon check in we were escorted to our cabin by a friendly man on a golf cart. Upon initial inspection of the cabin (two bedroom) it appeared fairly clean, but now I think that might be just because it was new. We arrived on a colder day (50 degrees) and our cabin was freezing. They didn’t think to turn the heat on for arriving guests. The girl’s bedroom, with a bunk bed (queen on bottom, twin on top) seemed clean and well appointed. The queen bed in the other room was a different story. The bed had a sheet set and a comforter, that did NOT have a duvet and a large tear in it (pics attached). Gross. How often do you think that is washed? And two measly pillows. The bedding did not smell fresh and clean and I was thankful I brought my own extra blanket. I should note, that we were there the weekend after Labor Day, when they were at full capacity the weekend before, so I have no doubt that this cabin was “cleaned” the week prior. The bathroom was ok and appeared clean with the exception of some dead bugs in the shower. The kitchen appeared mostly clean as well, with the exception of the coffee maker (pics attached) and the fridge had some leftover stains from the previous tenant I’m guessing. Again, glad I brought my own coffee maker as the Keurig was just gross. Some of this might seem small and nit picky, but in the time of Covid, it adds up.
We decided to eat at the Headwaters Tavern for dinner. When we arrived, I wasn’t sure if it was an actual restaurant. Only one staff member present and it took him a good 10 minutes to greet us. We sat and perused the menu. Please note, that there are two restaurants on site, both did NOT have a kid’s menu (pics attached). A resort for families without a kid’s menu, awesome (insert eye roll here). We ordered the cheeseburger, wings, and the spring rolls, and we all had water. The food took forever and the plates were smoking hot, so I have a feeling it sat under the heat lamps for quite a while because again, only one staff member for the entire place. The wings were passable, but the rest was abysmal and practically inedible. Totaling around $45 plus tip, it was wayyyy too much for the quality. I would like to add, that I have no issue paying premium prices at places like this for the convenience, but I expect food to rise to the occasion.
After dinner we hit the arcade and the bowling alley. The girls love the arcade but at $1-$3 per game we didn’t stick around long. There was also a sign asking you to sanitize the machines you used. Yeah sure, the amount of kids in and out of there without parents, nothing was being sanitized. Staff should be doing this periodically. Bowling which was right next to the arcade was fun and free (the only thing other than the playground and pool that was included) but again, not clean, no staff, and no sanitization procedures from what I saw.
The next morning as I was walking the dog, I did notice staff that were sanitizing the playground. My kids were also disappointed that the jump pad was not up the weekend we were there. Not entirely sure why but they were super excited about it.
The entire place is dirt, no grass, no trees, no shade and barely any amenities that do not cost extra. We did cruise around in the golf cart for a few days (at $50 per day) and the girls liked that. But there is no where to cruise to except other campsites. At some point, a trail through the woods or something similar would be nice.
Sunday, before we left, we did go to the pool. We were told at check in that we would need a pool pass and we could acquire those day of starting at 830 AM. So, we went to the office at 830 and were told that we no longer needed a pass. If the pool was at a capacity of 50 then staff would ask someone to leave (to accommodate you), if no one left then they would close the pool for an hour. So not only are you the asshole that closed the pool, you would have to try again in an hour. Not ideal, and surely there are much better ways to handle this like a reservation system. When I expressed my frustration with the staff at the front desk, there was no good explanation, just Covid. Well no, Covid doesn’t change the way you manage the capacity. We did end up with a spot at the pool, we stayed for about two hours. The entire time, I did not see one staff person. No one to sanitize when people left and no wipes available to sanitize for yourself, again, not a high-end resort experience at all.
In conclusion, I can see what this place is trying to be. In 20 years, they might just pull it off. We were supposed to stay until Monday morning and by Sunday afternoon we were ready to leave. I went to turn the golf cart in and asked her what the checkout procedure was and crickets. She left without answering to check out the golf cart and I asked again. So we went back to get the key for the cabin and drove it up to the office. I spoke with another front desk associate and handed the key in. At no point during my multiple conversations with front desk staff dd they ask how our stay was going. When we checked out a day early, no one bother to asked why. No one asked how our stay was. No one bothered to solicit any feedback of any type. I handed her the key and she said “you’re all set” and all I could think was, “Yes, we are”
So again, if you like vacationing in dirt and dust, with construction crews all over the place, with a pretty gross cabin, with mediocre, inedible, over priced food and barely any included amenities then River Run is for you.
I could have had a weekend at the Ritz with room service and spa services for the amount we spent at River Run, so save your money and book the Ritz or Airbnb a house on Grand Lake or visit Winding River Resort about 15 miles up the road which would be a much better experience for you and your family.
