Winding River Resort Review

Adjacent to Rocky Mountain National Park, Winding River is a good choice for campers seeking the forest experience of a national park-like campground, but with hot showers, full RV hookups, and all the other amenities of a commercial campground. In addition, Winding River offers an abundance of activities, ranging from horseshoes to horseback riding, plus hayrides, ice-cream socials, and chuck wagon breakfasts. There are also a petting zoo, playground, convenience store, and a self-serve laundry. In addition to campsites, there are a variety of cabins.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
