Blue Mesa Adventure Pod at Elk Creek Campground located within the Curecanti National Recreational Area is surrounded by some the most spectacular Rocky Mountain beauty to be found anywhere. While we tend to be dominated by the reservoir there is so much more to see and do! 

​

Black Canyon National Park is to the west, the West Elk Mountains to the north, the San Juan's to the south, and so much more everywhere in between! Our location makes the perfect base camp to go out and and fall in love with our mountains and valleys.
