51 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.

80 RV Sites
American RV Resort in Albuquerque, New Mexico, offers 80 full-hookup RV sites 1.5 miles from the city limits, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 70 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, behind a gated entrance. A dedicated Big Rig pull-through category joins deluxe premium, deluxe, premium, and standard tiers, with a pool, hot tub, spa, and recreation center. Eighty sites span standard back-in, standard pull-thru, premium pull-thru, deluxe pull-thru, deluxe premium pull-thru, and Big Rig pull-thru categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV, sized to 70 feet. The dedicated Big Rig category removes the guesswork for a long coach. A general store, boutique shop, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Rates are subject to federal and local taxes. An outdoor pool, hot tub, sauna, and spa anchor the property, with a recreation center, clubhouse, playground, dog park, horseshoes, and cabins filling the grounds. A southwestern theme runs through the design. Pets are welcome. Visit Albuquerque has recognized this as the top-rated RV park in the metro area, and the position backs that up. The Indian Pueblo Cultural Center, the Rio Grande Zoo, the aquarium and botanical park, and the Sandia Peak Tramway are all close, with Old Town and the Rio Grande corridor beyond. The Balloon Fiesta in early October fills every site in the metro months ahead — reserve as early as you can for that week. Spring and fall are otherwise the most comfortable seasons.

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.
