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.

50 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 5 Glamping Sites, 9 Tipis, 8 Onsite RV/Trailers
Moab RV and Glamping Resort in Utah offers 58 full-hookup RV sites, five cabins, and 14 glamping sites and tipis at the gateway to Arches and Canyonlands, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 65 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Back-in sites join numbered glamping RV sites and a dry parking tier. Fifty-eight sites run in back-in, dry parking, and numbered glamping RV categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 65 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The dry parking category gives self-contained rigs a lower rate, which is worth knowing in a town where peak-season pricing runs high. Sixty-five feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. Five cabins and 14 glamping sites and tipis round out the lodging. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and a community fire pit handle the practical side. The amenity set is deliberately spare, and in Moab that is the right call — guests are here for the canyon country, not for on-site programming. Ken's Lake and the Power Dam are nearby. Pets are welcome. Moab is the adventure capital of the American Southwest. Arches protects the world's highest concentration of natural stone arches, Canyonlands offers the most accessible canyon wilderness in the country, and the Colorado River, the slickrock trails, and Dead Horse Point are all within a short drive. Spring and fall are peak in Moab, when the desert is comfortable and the parks are busiest. Reserve well ahead for March through May and September through October.

Sun Outdoors Canyonlands Gateway in Moab, UT, offers 77 full-hookup pull-thru RV sites, 21 cabin and cottage rentals, and 15 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 110 feet. Every site is a pull-thru, in five sizes: standard, standard extended, deluxe, premium, and extra large. All carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a picnic table, and a barbecue. At 110 feet the extra large pull-thrus take anything on the road, and nothing needs unhitching. If you booked here before, note the name change: Archview RV Resort & Campground is now Sun Outdoors Canyonlands Gateway. The grounds are gated and open all year, with laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, propane fills and exchange, a dump station, and a community fire pit. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. An outdoor pool, a splash pad, a playground, and walking trails fill the grounds, with hiking, biking, and mountain biking from the property and off-roading nearby. The resort sits at 13701 US Highway 191, between Arches and Canyonlands in the red rock country where the Colorado River cuts through the uplift. Rates by pull-thru size are on the booking page. Moab's spring and fall seasons book out months ahead.

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.
