After a 6 hour drive from Kodachrome State Park to Grand
Junction, we were ready to call it a day.
There was a stretch of 110 miles where there were ZERO services. No gas, no potties, no nothing. Not to mention we left Kodachrome with a TON
of wet clothes and gear. We were
desperate to do laundry, hence our stop here at the KOA. There are some lovely state parks that
surround this area and next time we’ll stop there as long as we don’t need a
washing machine, shower and rest as soon as possible.
We left this morning pretty early—as the sun was
rising. It was super foggy for the first
3 hours of the trip. Gave some gorgeous
views…only captured a few though, I could have stopped 70+ times to get shots
as the sun burst thru the fog or a barn was lit up “just right.” We really enjoyed Kodachrome a lot – we recommend
that state park to anyone traveling thru the area for SURE!
For the review on this KOA…thumbs down. We usually have great experiences with KOAs. They are clean, people are friendly and the
sites are usually pretty nice. This
place…sites are on top of each other, staff is a little gruff and the bathrooms
are NOT clean. They look clean, but it
smells as if a dirty mop has been cleaning those floors over and over and over
again. For the purpose of this visit
though, can’t complain – got our laundry done, dried some stuff out, was able
to cook some dinner, walk the dog, get a shower and sleep before getting on the
road again.
Until we meet again campers!
Next check in will be at home, only a few more opportunities to camp
before the season closes…let’s all start hoping now for a SHORT winter! ;)
