Camp Eddy

Camp Eddy in Grand Junction, CO, offers full-hookup RV sites carrying water, sewer, and electric, with a picnic table at each site, alongside tiny homes and Airstream glamping. Both pull-thru and back-in layouts are available, along with ADA-accessible sites. The camp is open all year. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a community fire pit, recycling, and personal mailboxes cover the practical side. Contact the camp for site count, amp service, and maximum rig length, since those specifics aren't published here. Walking trails, a boat ramp, and planned activities fill the grounds, with riverside access for fishing, swimming, paddle boarding, and whitewater rafting, plus mountain biking, biking, and picnicking. Wine tasting is nearby. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. Camp Eddy sits within Las Colonias Park on the banks of the Colorado River, opened in 2022 with a design built around the river rather than against it — guests put in from the property. Rates for RV sites, tiny homes, and Airstreams are on the booking page. Call ahead to confirm your rig's fit before reserving.

Riverwood Resort on the Gunnison

28 RV Sites, 14 Motel Rooms, 1 Apartment

Riverwood Resort on the Gunnison in Delta, CO, offers 28 full-hookup RV sites plus 15 apartment and motel rooms, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 75 feet. Sites come in four categories — standard back-in, premium back-in, riverfront back-in, and pull-thru — all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi and a picnic table. The riverfront back-ins are the ones worth requesting. At 75 feet the property takes long coaches, and the attached inn means travelers can mix an RV stay with a room for family arriving separately. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, and walking trails are on the grounds. Both the campground and the inn are pet friendly. Fishing on the Gunnison is the draw, with river frontage and a lake on the property. Delta sits where the North Fork Valley's orchards and farmland meet the broader canyon country of western Colorado, on the Gunnison River between Grand Junction and Montrose. Rates for RV sites, apartments, and motel rooms are on the booking page. Riverfront sites are limited and go first during summer fishing season.

Cedar Creek RV Park

Cedar Creek RV Park in Montrose, Colorado, offers full-hookup RV sites with water, sewer, and electric alongside cabins and glamping accommodations on a creekside property in the Uncompahgre Valley. Back-in and pull-through sites, on-site dining, a dog park, and walking trails make this a comfortable base in the gateway city to Colorado's western slope. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric in back-in and pull-through configurations, with site WiFi throughout. Cabins and glamping units serve guests who want a furnished alternative without giving up the creekside setting. A general store, propane fills and exchange, laundry, restrooms, showers, and a dump station handle the practical side, and on-site dining covers meals. The property is built for guests who spend days out and want comfort on return. A playground, dog park, pavilion, and walking trails run the grounds along the creek, with planned activities through the season. The surrounding country supports mountain biking, hiking, biking, horseback riding, fishing, boating, and birding, with skiing and wine tasting nearby. Pets are welcome. Montrose is the most practical basecamp in western Colorado. Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park lies east, the Grand Mesa's lake plateau north, and the San Juan Mountains south via the Million Dollar Highway toward Ouray, Silverton, and Telluride. The Dominguez-Escalante National Conservation Area is also close. Seasons shape the visit sharply here. Winter runs cold and snowy with highs in the upper 30s to mid 40s, good for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing in the Black Canyon and generally quiet at the park. Spring through fall carries the bulk of demand — reserve ahead for summer and fall color.

HTR Moab Lodge & Cottages

6 Tent Sites, 13 Glamping Sites, 19 Cottages, 9 Motel Rooms

HTR Moab Lodge & Cottages in Moab, UT, offers 28 cottage and lodge rooms, 13 glamping sites, and 6 tent sites. The accommodation roster is one of the most varied in canyon country — vacation rental cottages, lodge rooms, safari tents with queen beds, and traditional tent sites. The published record shows no RV sites, so contact the property directly if you're traveling in a rig. EV charging is available, still scarce in this part of Utah. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a clubhouse, personal mailboxes, a community fire pit, and a pet washing station serve guests. Pets are welcome. Walking trails cross the high desert property, with hiking, biking, birding, swimming, fishing, kayaking, boating, and the stargazing that draws people to this corner of the Colorado Plateau. Moab sits just below the property, with Arches National Park, Canyonlands, Dead Horse Point State Park, and the Colorado River all within a short drive. Rates for every accommodation type are on the booking page. Moab's spring and fall seasons book months ahead — and call about RV accommodation before you tow.

River Camp RV Park

16 RV Sites

River Camp RV Park in Meeker, CO, offers 16 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 44 feet. Sites come as back-ins and pull-thrus, each carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. A bathhouse with showers, firewood, and on-site dining cover the essentials, and pets are welcome. At 16 sites this stays quiet in a way larger parks can't. The property sits on 13 acres on a sweeping bend of the White River, with fishing straight from the site and hiking from the grounds. Off-road riding and golf are nearby. Meeker is a small ranching and hunting town in Rio Blanco County, where the Flat Tops Wilderness begins to shadow the valley floor — the park has been a quiet Colorado secret since 2006. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Hunting season and summer fishing both fill the park, so reserve ahead.

31 RV Sites

A dedicated Big Rig category removes the guesswork, and 100 feet accommodates the longest coaches with a tow. Cabins round out the lodging. A general store, boutique shop, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, RV storage, and boat storage handle the practical side. The park sits a half mile west of the concrete boat ramp at Stevens Creek and three miles east of Elk Creek Marina. A marina and boat ramp open the water for boating and fishing, with a pavilion, playground, community fire pit, dog park, volleyball, horseshoes, and corn hole filling the rest. Pets are welcome. Blue Mesa is Colorado's largest body of water at more than 9,000 surface acres, in the Black Canyon country of Gunnison County. Curecanti National Recreation Area, the Black Canyon of the Gunnison, and Crested Butte are all within reach. Summer is the short, intense season in the Colorado high country. Reserve well ahead for June through September.

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.

River Dance RV Resort

39 RV Sites

River Dance RV Resort in Gypsum, CO, offers 39 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 72 feet. Sites break into three categories — full-hookup 50/30-amp back-ins, full-hookup 50/30-amp pull-thrus, and full-hookup back-in sites sized for vans and small campers — each carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi and a picnic table. The van and small-camper sites are a thoughtful touch in a valley where most parks are built for coaches. The resort is open all year. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, and propane fills handle resupply, and pets are welcome. The property has private Eagle River access with its own beach, which is the resort's real amenity — guests fish, paddle, and swim without leaving the grounds, and walking trails run alongside. Hiking, biking, birding, and nearby hot springs fill out the rest. Gypsum sits in the broad Eagle River valley below the White River National Forest, about 20 minutes west of Vail and 15 minutes east of Glenwood Springs. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Ski season and summer river season both run busy, so reserve early either way.

Tall Texan RV Park and Cabins

84 RV Sites

Tall Texan RV Park and Cabins in Gunnison, Colorado, offers 84 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet, with more than 50 years of continuous operation in the Gunnison and Crested Butte Valley.

The El Grande and super size tiers give larger rigs a proper option in a valley where space is often tight. A general store, boutique shop, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. A game room, playground, pavilion, and pond fill the grounds, with fishing on the property and a river nearby. Offroading is close by. Pets are welcome. Fifty years of continuous operation in a competitive mountain resort market says something no amenity list can. Gunnison sits at the convergence of the Gunnison River valley and the road north to Crested Butte, with the Black Canyon, Blue Mesa Reservoir, and the West Elk Mountains all within reach. Directions: from Highway 50, turn north on Main Street (Highway 135) for 2.5 miles — if you cross the bridge over the Gunnison River you have gone too far — then right onto County Road 11 by the mailboxes and the blue campground sign, and 300 yards in. Summer is peak in the Colorado high country. Reserve well ahead for June through September.

Dolores River RV Resort

64 RV Sites, 13 Cabins, 10 Tent Sites, 2 Yurts, 2 Wagons

The riverfront back-ins are the ones to request. No wristbands are required for any amenity, which is worth knowing if you've stayed at resorts that charge for them. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a snack bar, firewood, propane fills and exchange, a dump station, a clubhouse, a recreation center, and recycling cover the rest. Pets are welcome. A beach, a pond, a lake, walking trails, horseshoes, and a playground fill the forested grounds, with fishing, kayaking, and hiking on the Dolores.

Junction West Durango Riverside

97 RV Sites, 2 Cabins

Junction West Durango Riverside in Durango, Colorado, offers 70 full-hookup RV sites and two cabins along the Animas River in the Hermosa Valley, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 70 feet. Riverfront back-in and super pull-through categories sit alongside an outdoor pool, on-site dining, a boutique shop, and a game room. Seventy sites run in back-in, riverfront back-in, pull-through, and super pull-through configurations, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 70 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. The riverfront category is worth requesting — the river is the property's defining feature. Two cabins serve guests without a rig. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The amenity roster reduces the need to leave the property. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, on-site dining and a snack bar cover meals, and a game room and boutique shop fill the rest. Swimming and fishing run from the river, which the resort follows where the Animas emerges from the canyon above town and widens through the Hermosa Creek confluence. Pets are welcome. Durango's downtown is minutes south, with its dining and craft brewery scene, and the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad — running through the San Juan Mountains since 1882 — is 12 miles away. The resort serves the southwestern Colorado season. Summer railroad traffic and fall color in the San Juans drive peak demand, and Durango lodging tightens considerably in both windows. Reserve well ahead, and request a riverfront site early if you want one.
