Palisade Basecamp RV Resort
66 RV Sites
Palisade Basecamp RV Resort in Palisade, Colorado, offers 66 full-hookup RV sites on 14 acres along the Colorado River, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 62 feet. Site names tell you what you are booking — River Bluff, Vineyard, Deluxe, and Premium in both back-in and pull-through — in the heart of Colorado wine country. Sixty-six sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, split between back-in and pull-through configurations sized to 62 feet. Deluxe, Premium, Vineyard, and River Bluff categories differ by position on the property rather than hookup type. A general store, propane fills, laundry, restrooms, showers, and a dump station cover the practical side, and WiFi reaches the sites. Check-in is 1pm, check-out 11am, with quiet hours from 10pm to 8am; river-bottom sites check in at the main office. On-site amenities are geared to guests who spend their days out. A dog park, playground, and game room serve families and pets, and hiking, biking, swimming, paddle boats, and horseshoes run from the property. The 14-acre scale keeps the resort compact and walkable. Pets are welcome. Palisade's wine district holds more than 30 estate wineries within a short drive, and the Grand Valley's peach orchards make it the most productive fruit-growing area in the Rocky Mountain West. The Colorado River runs along the property for paddling and fishing, Colorado National Monument's canyons are close, and Grand Mesa is an easy day trip. The resort operates through the western Colorado season. Peach harvest and the fall wine calendar make late summer and early autumn the busiest stretch — book well ahead for September and October weekends.

Mesa Campground
Three miles west of Gunnison on US Highway 50, Mesa Campground sits at the gateway to one of Colorado's most compelling outdoor corridors, with the Gunnison River within walking distance and Blue Mesa Reservoir—Colorado's largest body of water—just minutes down the road. The campground offers full hookup sites for rigs of all sizes, cabin rentals, and proximity to both Curecanti National Recreation Area and the broader Gunnison Valley that makes this part of Colorado a legitimate four-season destination. The combination of river access, a national recreation area next door, and proximity to Crested Butte and Black Canyon makes Gunnison a natural hub for serious outdoor travelers. The campground's sites range from open and shaded options with 30 and 50-amp service to luxury pull-through configurations suited to the largest motorhomes. Free shared WiFi covers the property, and pet-friendly restrooms and showers reflect a campground culture that treats traveling pets as genuine guests. A well-maintained laundromat, communal fire pits, a small playground, and an on-site clubhouse, recreation center, and general store keep the operation self-sufficient for guests who prefer to limit trips to town. Propane service and boat storage accommodate guests who arrive between outings on Blue Mesa or the river. Cabins are available for those seeking a more contained stay. The Gunnison River is the natural focal point of the campground's immediate setting, and walking access to its banks provides easy trout fishing—the river holds brown and rainbow trout in quality numbers through the season—and the particular calm of a high-country river corridor available at whatever time of day fits your schedule. Blue Mesa Reservoir, three miles from the campground, is Colorado's largest body of water and one of the best Kokanee salmon fisheries in the West. Curecanti National Recreation Area surrounds the reservoir system and offers boating, paddling, and scenic canyon geology. Crested Butte, one of Colorado's most beloved mountain towns and a world-class ski and mountain biking destination, is 28 miles north of Gunnison on Highway 135. Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park—a dramatically narrow canyon carved by the river itself—is accessible to the west for a day trip that ranks consistently among the most visually striking geological experiences in the Rocky Mountain region. The Gunnison area also anchors an off-road vehicle network extending into the surrounding mountains, and mountain biking trails out of Gunnison and Crested Butte are among Colorado's best. Mesa Campground operates year-round and provides a genuinely useful base for campers who want to explore the Gunnison Valley's remarkable concentration of outdoor opportunity. Summer is the peak season for water recreation on Blue Mesa and trails at Crested Butte, while fall brings extraordinary aspen color across the valley. Winter brings ski access at Crested Butte for guests willing to make the short drive over Kebler Pass. Book your site early for summer weekends and fall aspen season, and use the Gunnison Valley as the base camp it deserves to be.

Sun Outdoors Canyonlands Gateway
77 RV Sites, 18 Cabins, 15 Tent Sites, 3 Cottages
At 13701 US Highway 191 in Moab, Utah—in Grand County where the Colorado River cuts through Canyonlands' uplift in the canyon system that has produced the most visually dramatic landscape in the American West, where Arches National Park's 2,000 documented natural sandstone arches rise from the red rock plateau above town, and where the mountain biking, whitewater rafting, four-wheel-drive, and hiking culture of the Colorado Plateau's outdoor recreation economy has made Moab the most visited small city in Utah—Sun Outdoors Canyonlands Gateway provides full hookup RV sites with sites up to 110 feet, an on-site gas station, a general store, a swimming pool with a splash pad, and the comprehensive site infrastructure that Moab's year-round visitor market and its frequent afternoon heat make essential for comfortable multi-day stays at the gateway to two national parks. The on-site gas station alone changes the morning logistics for guests departing for Arches or Canyonlands with a large rig. Deluxe and extra-large RV sites with full hookup service—30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer—on leveled gravel pads accommodate rigs from 40 to 110 feet, covering the full spectrum of current motorhome and fifth-wheel lengths. Picnic tables, charcoal grills, cable television, and WiFi are included at each site. Primitive tent sites with picnic tables, charcoal grills, cable, and WiFi, plus water spigots and access to the shared bathhouses, provide the lower-cost camping option. Camping cabins with two full-size beds, heating and air conditioning, linens, and cable and WiFi give guests without RVs the enclosed accommodation option. A swimming pool with an adjacent splash pad provides the afternoon heat relief that Moab's summer temperatures—regularly exceeding 100 degrees from June through August—make genuinely necessary for guests planning to spend mornings in the parks and afternoons at the campground. An on-site gas station, general store, laundry facilities, propane service, multiple picnic areas with fire pits, and covered pavilions with BBQ grills complete the resort's full-service infrastructure. Arches National Park, accessible from the resort within minutes on US 191 north, provides the sandstone arch concentration that has made Moab internationally recognizable—Delicate Arch's 65-foot span above the Colorado River canyon appearing in virtually every piece of Utah promotional material since Edward Abbey's Desert Solitaire popularized the Arches landscape in 1968. The park's 2,000-plus documented natural arches, fins, and balanced rocks are accessible on the park road with developed trailheads ranging from the 100-yard Windows Section walk to the strenuous Devil's Garden Primitive Loop. Canyonlands National Park, the larger and less-visited counterpart to Arches, divides its terrain into three distinct districts separated by the Colorado and Green Rivers' confluence—the Island in the Sky mesa above the river junction providing the most accessible and panoramic viewpoints in the Colorado Plateau system. Dead Horse Point State Park, perched above the Colorado River's 2,000-foot Goose Neck canyon in a position that most Moab visitors cite as more visually stunning than anything in either national park, is accessible on the same road as the Island in the Sky and should be included in any Canyonlands day trip. Sun Outdoors Canyonlands Gateway operates year-round in Moab's four-season desert climate. Spring and fall offer the most comfortable temperatures for hiking and cycling; summer brings the heat but also the full river rafting season on the Colorado's Cataract Canyon. Reserve your extra-large site early for spring break and the fall October shoulder season, fill up at the on-site gas station on the morning of your national park drive, and let Grand County's canyon geology earn what two national parks within 30 minutes of each other look like when the red rock is catching the first light.
