Cortez RV Resort

45 RV Sites, 12 Cabins, 23 Tent Sites

Cortez RV Resort in Cortez, CO, offers 46 full-hookup RV sites, 12 cabins, and 23 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 65 feet. Site categories cover the range: back-in sites, back-in 20/30-amp water-and-electric sites, pull-thru 30-amp, pull-thru 30/50-amp water-and-electric, and premium pull-thru 50-amp. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, and a dump station cover the basics, and propane fills are available on site. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. The resort keeps guests busy between park days: an outdoor pool, a water park, a recreation center, a clubhouse with billiards, a playground, basketball, horseshoes, a boutique shop, and walking trails through the grounds, plus a lake, pond, and beach area for swimming, kayaking, and fishing. Golf is nearby, and the dark skies make for good stargazing. Cortez sits in Montezuma County in the Four Corners, at the gateway to Mesa Verde National Park and one of the densest concentrations of Ancestral Puebloan sites anywhere. Rates for sites, cabins, and tent spots are on the booking page. Summer, when Mesa Verde is at its busiest, books first.

Dolores River RV Resort

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

Dolores River RV Resort in Dolores, CO, offers 64 RV sites, 13 cabins, 10 tent sites, and 4 wagons and yurts, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites come in five categories — standard back-in, standard pull-thru, premium pull-thru, premium riverfront back-in, and water-and-electric back-in — with full-hookup sites carrying water, sewer, and electric plus site-delivered WiFi and a picnic table. 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. Wine tasting and a state park are nearby. Dolores sits at 18680 Colorado Highway 145, three miles from town on the road toward Telluride, with Mesa Verde 50 miles east. Rates for every accommodation type are on the booking page. Premium riverfront sites book first.

Sun Outdoors Moab Downtown

96 RV Sites, 8 Cabins, 26 Tent Sites

Sun Outdoors Moab Downtown offers 96 RV sites, eight cabins, and 26 tent sites in the heart of Moab, Utah, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and a splash pad — all pull-through configurations. One detail to check before booking: sites are sized to 37 feet, which is short for a Moab base, so confirm your rig fits. Ninety-six sites run in premium pull-through, 30/50-amp pull-through, 30-amp pull-through, water-and-electric pull-through, and combined water-and-electric RV/tent configurations, sized to 37 feet, with cable TV, site WiFi, and picnic tables. Eight cabins and 26 tent sites round out the accommodations. A general store, propane fills and exchange, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The property was formerly Canyonlands RV Resort & Campground. An outdoor pool and splash pad anchor the recreation, with a playground, pavilion, dog park, and community fire pit across the grounds and planned activities through the season. The downtown position is the real amenity — restaurants, outfitters, and shops are walkable rather than a drive away, which matters after a long day in the parks. Pets are welcome. Moab sits between Arches and Canyonlands National Parks in Grand County, where the Colorado River has cut through Entrada and Navajo Sandstone to create the densest concentration of arch, canyon, and mesa geology in the American Southwest. The central location minimizes driving to both park entrances, and off-roading is immediately available. The resort is open all year. Spring and fall are peak in Moab, when temperatures suit hiking — reserve well ahead for March through May and September through October.

from $33/night

Lake Powell Gateway RV Resort

32 RV Sites

Lake Powell Gateway RV Resort in Big Water, UT, offers 32 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 60 feet. The site rows are named for the country around them — Alstrom Point standard and non-standard back-ins, the Buckskin pull-throughs, and the Toadstools row. All carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a picnic table, and a barbecue, and ADA-accessible sites are available. EV charging is on site, which is worth knowing in a corner of Utah where it is scarce. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, propane fills, a clubhouse, and a recreation center with a game room and arcade cover the rest. The resort is family-owned and children are welcome, with close supervision asked. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool, a spa, a hot tub and sauna, billiards, horseshoes, a playground, and desert walking trails fill the grounds, with off-roading and a state park nearby. Big Water is the last community on US-89 before the Arizona border, at the edge of Glen Canyon National Recreation Area — Horseshoe Bend, Antelope Canyon, and Lake Powell are all within striking distance. Rates and minimum-night requirements are on the booking page.

from $50/night

Sun Outdoors Arches Gateway

84 RV Sites, 33 Cabins, 3 Tent Sites, 3 Cottages, 8 Airstreams

Sun Outdoors Arches Gateway in Moab, Utah, offers 84 RV sites, 36 cabin and cottage units, three tent sites, and eight Airstreams five miles from Arches National Park, with 20, 30, and 50-amp full hookups, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 45 feet. A premium covered full-hookup tent and van category joins deluxe and premium pull-through tiers, with a pool and hot tub. Eighty-four sites span standard, deluxe pull-thru 30/50-amp, premium pull-thru 30/50-amp, small RV/deluxe tent, and premium covered full-hookup tent/van categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with picnic tables and BBQ pits. Two categories are worth knowing about: the covered tent and van sites give shade in a place where shade is scarce, and the small RV/deluxe tent tier right-sizes for van travelers. Thirty-six cabins and cottages, three tent sites, and eight Airstreams round out an unusually varied lodging inventory. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The property was formerly Moab Valley RV Resort & Campground. An outdoor pool and hot tub and sauna anchor the property, with a playground, pavilion, and dog park filling the grounds. Hot air ballooning runs nearby. Pets are welcome. Arches protects more than 2,000 natural stone arches, the largest concentration anywhere, with Canyonlands stretching beyond. Spring and fall are peak in Moab. Reserve well ahead.

from $41/night

Canyons of Escalante RV Park

28 RV Sites

Canyons of Escalante RV Park in Utah offers 28 full-hookup RV sites at the gateway to Grand Staircase-Escalante, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet. Extended, premium, and standard categories join a pavilion, laundry, showers, firewood, and on-site dining. Twenty-eight sites run in standard, premium, and extended categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Three tiers keep booking simple, and the extended category gives longer rigs the room they need. Sixty feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. A laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, a pavilion, and on-site dining handle the practical side. Office hours run Monday through Saturday, 9am to 5pm and subject to change — an on-site kiosk handles arrivals outside those hours, with staff available to assist. The amenity set is deliberately spare, and here that is correct — guests are in Escalante for the canyon country, not for programming. Hiking runs in every direction and offroading is nearby. Pets are welcome. Escalante is the primary gateway community for travelers entering Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument from the north, and the position is genuinely privileged. This is among the most remote and geologically spectacular landscapes in the American West — slot canyons, the Hole-in-the-Rock Road, Calf Creek Falls, and Highway 12's route over Boulder Mountain, with Bryce Canyon and Capitol Reef both within reach. Spring and fall are peak in southern Utah, when the slot canyons are safest and the heat manageable. Reserve well ahead for April through May and September through October.

from $53/night

HTR Durango Campground

52 RV Sites, 9 Cabins, 10 Tent Sites, 3 Cottages, 2 Lodges

HTR Durango Campground in Colorado offers 51 RV sites, 14 cabin, cottage, and lodge units, and 10 tent sites on the western approach to Durango, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Canyonside and creekside categories at both amperages join pull-in and water-and-electric tiers, with a pool, on-site dining, and live music. Fifty-one sites span back-in water-and-electric, canyonside back-in 30-amp, canyonside back-in 50-amp, canyonside pull-in 30-amp, and creekside back-in 30-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with picnic tables, sized to 45 feet. Naming categories canyonside and creekside tells you exactly what you are booking; confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric option does not carry sewer at the site. Fourteen cabins, cottages, and lodges and 10 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane exchange, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Office hours run 10am to 6pm, and the dry camping season runs May 1-14 and October 10-31 — worth checking if you are traveling in the shoulders. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a pond and creek supporting fishing, and basketball, a playground, pavilion, dog park, and on-site dining filling the grounds. Hiking, biking, swimming, live music, and strong birding round it out. Canyon walls of Douglas fir and ponderosa surround the property, with downtown Durango and the San Juans close. Summer and fall color drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

from $39/night

Durango RV Resort

96 RV Sites, 27 Cabins, 11 Tent Sites, 1 House

Durango RV Resort in Colorado offers 96 RV sites, 28 cabin and house units, and 11 tent sites five miles from downtown, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, EV charging, and rigs accepted to 85 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, open all year. Elite and premium pull-through categories join partial-hookup back-in and pull-through tiers, with a pool, hot tub, and mini-golf. Ninety-six sites span standard back-in, standard pull-thru, premium pull-thru, elite back-in, elite pull-thru, partial hookup back-in, and partial hookup pull-thru categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 85 feet, with fire pits and BBQ pits. Read the category carefully — the partial hookup tiers do not carry the full set, and they price accordingly. Eighty-five feet accommodates the longest coaches with a tow. EV charging on site is still uncommon at RV resorts. Twenty-eight cabins and houses and 11 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, and recycling handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and hot tub and sauna anchor the property, with mini-golf, a clubhouse, billiards, pickleball, a playground, pavilion, and dog park filling the rest. Fishing, hiking, biking, swimming, and skiing are all close. Mesa Verde, the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, Purgatory, and the San Juans are within reach. Summer and fall color drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

from $35/night

Thousand Lakes RV Park

43 RV Sites

Thousand Lakes RV Park in Torrey, Utah, offers 43 RV sites six miles west of Capitol Reef National Park, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 70 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Back-in, pull-through, and dry camp categories join an outdoor pool, general store, and on-site dining in a red rock valley. Forty-three sites span back-in, pull-thru, and dry camp no-hookup categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 70 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The dry camp tier gives self-contained rigs a lower rate — worth knowing in a gateway town where peak pricing runs high. Seventy feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. Cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The park sits one mile west of Torrey on Highway 24. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a pavilion, playground, basketball, horseshoes, and on-site dining filling the rest. A lake is nearby. Pets are welcome. The valley is flanked by Thousand Lake Mountain and Boulder Mountain, and the family-operated park has been orienting guests toward the Waterpocket Fold's geology for decades. Capitol Reef is the least crowded of Utah's five national parks and among the most rewarding, with Highway 12's scenic route and Grand Staircase-Escalante just south. Spring and fall are peak in southern Utah. Reserve well ahead for April through June and September through October.

from $43/night

Bryce Canyon RV Resort

45 RV Sites, 14 Cabins, 19 Tent Sites

Bryce Canyon RV Resort in Cannonville, UT, offers 45 full-hookup RV sites, 14 cabins, and 19 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 65 feet. Site categories cover the range: back-in 30/20-amp, back-in 30/20-amp water-and-electric, back-in 50/30-amp, back-in 50/30-amp water-and-electric, and deluxe back-in 50/30-amp. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, picnic table, and barbecue. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a snack bar, firewood, propane fills and exchange, a dump station, and a clubhouse cover the essentials. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. An outdoor pool, a pavilion, a playground, basketball, horseshoes, a pond, and walking trails fill the grounds, with hiking, birding, and some of the darkest skies in the country for stargazing. Cannonville sits just off Scenic Byway 12 in Garfield County, at the doorstep of Bryce Canyon National Park and the Grand Staircase-Escalante country beyond. Rates for sites, cabins, and tent spots are on the booking page. Bryce's peak season books far ahead — reserve early for late spring through early fall.

from $37/night

Bryce Valley Ranch RV & Horse Park

69 RV Sites

Bryce Valley Ranch RV and Horse Park in Cannonville, Utah, offers 69 full-hookup RV sites just below the rim of Bryce Canyon National Park, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 75 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Categories publish their exact length — 35, 65, and 75 feet — with separate adult-only and family pull-through sections, plus horse pens for equestrian guests. Sixty-nine sites span back-in 30-amp at 35 feet, back-in 30/50-amp at 75 feet, and pull-thru 30/50-amp at 65 feet in both adult-only and family sections, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Publishing length by category removes all guesswork, and separating the adult-only and family sections is a thoughtful touch that serves both. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, firewood, horse pens, and a pet washing station handle the practical side. One safety note the park states plainly: a river runs at the back of the property and can flash flood from heavy rain at higher elevations. Walking trails, a community fire pit, playground, dog park, and pavilion fill the grounds, with hiking, biking, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and offroading nearby. The horse pens are the differentiator — this park serves riders who want to bring their own animals onto the Grand Staircase backcountry trails, which very few properties accommodate. The family operating it has two decades in this corner of canyon country. Spring and fall are peak at Bryce. Reserve well ahead.

from $36 $31/night

Junction West Vallecito Resort

Junction West Vallecito Resort in Bayfield, Colorado, offers full-hookup RV sites and cabin accommodations in the mountain country of La Plata County near Durango, with an outdoor pool, game room, library, and lake on the property. One practical detail to plan around: there is no cell service in the park, though WiFi calling is available — check with your provider before arrival to have it enabled. Full-hookup RV sites serve guests with rigs, and cabins provide enclosed lodging for those without. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with WiFi throughout. The lack of cell coverage is worth taking seriously if you need to stay reachable — enable WiFi calling before you arrive rather than after. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a game room, library, and pavilion for other hours. A playground serves families, and a lake on the property supports fishing, with horseshoes and basketball on the grounds. Pets are welcome. Bayfield sits at cool elevation in the forested upper Piedra River drainage, near Vallecito Reservoir and the San Juan National Forest. That puts the full southwestern Colorado recreation corridor within reach — Mesa Verde National Park, the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, and the Weminuche Wilderness Area's high alpine trail network. The San Juan Mountains deliver the most visually spectacular concentration of high-country scenery in the Rocky Mountain West, and the conifer forest and mountain air here are the reason guests choose this over a Durango-adjacent park. Summer is the season at this elevation. Reserve well ahead for July and August.
