About Three Rivers Resort & Outfitting
Three Rivers Resort & Outfitting sits at the confluence of the East River, Taylor River, and Gunnison River in the tiny hamlet of Almont, roughly 18 miles south of Crested Butte. This location at the meeting of three renowned fishing and rafting rivers makes it one of the most strategically positioned outfitters in the Gunnison Valley — guests can launch rafting trips, book guided fly fishing, or wade into gold-medal trout water literally from the property's doorstep. The resort has been operating for decades and combines lodging, dining, and outfitting under one roof.
The outfitting operation runs guided whitewater rafting trips on the Taylor River — ranging from family-friendly Class II floats to more spirited Class III runs through Taylor Canyon — as well as inflatable kayak trips for those who want a more hands-on river experience. Their fly fishing guide service covers the Taylor, East, and Gunnison Rivers, offering half-day and full-day wade trips on some of Colorado's best public trout water. The resort also rents fishing gear, provides shuttle services, and offers multi-day packages that bundle lodging with guided river activities.
What sets Three Rivers apart is the all-in-one convenience of having your outfitter, lodging, and river access in a single location. Guests stay in riverside cabins, walk to the launch point in the morning, and return to a hot meal without ever starting a car. The guides have fished and rafted these three rivers for years and know every riffle, eddy, and productive fly pattern. For visitors who want a genuine Colorado river lodge experience in the Crested Butte corridor, Three Rivers is the classic choice.
