About the Hotel

Hidden away in a pastoral alpine clearing of the Colorado Rockies, eight luxurious canvas tents comprise Dunton River Camp. The full-frills "glamping" resort located just 20 feet from the rushing Dolores River shows off gorgeous panoramic views of the surrounding San Juan Mountains. Each of the custom tents is perched on a wooden platform, which extends 10 feet out in order to create an amply sized covered front porch featuring golden teak steamer lounge chairs. Appointed with bespoke furnishings and nostalgic cast-iron gas stoves, the tents exude a sense of coziness. In true rough-luxe fashion, all accommodations are equipped with spacious en-suite bathrooms that have running hot and cold water, double vanities, and six-foot soaking tubs with showers.

Reviews for Dunton River Camp

Luxurious beautiful glamping

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed July 9, 2023

Luxurious glamping in the secluded wilderness. It takes a while to get to the camp but the beautiful scenery is well worth it. Accommodations were wonderful--our tent was next to the river and it was lovely to fall asleep to the sound of the flowing water. The staff was also great. The food was amazing and it was lovely to have the wine pairing for dinner. Lunch and dinner are chef's choice (you eat what the chef decides to serve) and even though it's hard to satisfy everyone, all the guests seemed to enjoy their meals. We had full access to hot springs at the main camp (Dunton Hot Springs); the staff also moved the dinner one night to the main camp so we could eat and mingle with the guests at the main camp and visit the springs after dinner. It was a wonderful trip and we would love to come back.

Our Trip

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed July 25, 2021

It is amazing to go to this River Camp, the road some are dirt road but the view is spectacular and it is deep in forest. When we arrived I was worried to see tents that we will stay. But when we came in side they have amenities, hot shower, hot tub, internet. Later we know they have spa, jacuzzi, sauna and we can go nearby Dunton Hot Spring to enjoy hot springs. The staff welcome us is Wes a very friendly and professional. The view are spectacular , there are cows, horses around The food menu are fixed to all clients and changed daily but they can change if we request. We can pay for fishing trip and especially horse riding the mountains and meadows with Vicky a very nice lady This is a memorable trip and only thing they required only 2 a room so we have a 17 yo son and we have to pay same prize for his room and they do not permit rollover bed. If you like nature this is a perfect trip Dr Vo

Better than a 5 Star

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed June 27, 2018

5 stars does not give this secluded haven justice. Glamping at its finest. We fell asleep listening to the river. Food was prepared by amazing Chefs. Chef Basil is incredibly talented! Farm to table foods. Sarah, Kodi, Tara,Max,Noah the entire team pampered us and by the end of our stay we felt like family.Beautiful hikes, fly fishing, horseback riding, massage. You can also stay at Dunton Hot Springs. Have dinner in a romantic tee pee or Arrange a picnic lunch as you go hiking or biking. The staff is willing to do anything for anyone. Also, the property and tents were kept so clean. A+rating and thankful for the staff who kept our bath towels and Tent so clean(I am kind of a germaphobe)Thank you to the cleaning staff. We never saw them to thank them. The views of the mountains were memorizing.Star gazing was memorizing. home less than 24 hours and already missing the beauty and staff❤️ Please go to River Camp and go glamping or Dunton Hot Springs and stay in an old mining town...it will not disappoint.

Just perfect sanctuary

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed September 2, 2015

Wow...what an amazing place this is. We decided to take part of their all day lunch and were totally amazed by the delicious food and service. They took care of everything. We spent the whole day in their Farmhouse. Great place and worth the visit. Next time we are going to spend a night.

This is the only way to camp!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed July 27, 2015

Very remote but great accommodations. King size beds, tiled bathrooms with a deep soaking tub in a large tent?? This is the only way to camp! Go to sleep to the sound of the river flowing past the tents. Joelle took great care to meet our every need. The food was incredible thanks to Carlos and Patrick. Highly recommended!
