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.

Glenwood Canyon Resort

49 RV Sites, 25 Cabins, 1 Tent Site, 1 Condo

Glenwood Canyon Resort in Glenwood Springs, CO, offers 36 full-hookup RV sites, 24 cabin and condo rentals, and 1 tent site, with 30 and 50-amp service.

Sites carry water, sewer, and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. The resort is rated big rig friendly, but the published length bands and the export's maximum don't agree, so confirm your rig's fit with the resort before booking. Open all year, though some amenities scale back off-season. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, and a dump station cover the rest. Fireworks are not permitted. Pets are welcome. A boat ramp and river frontage put guests on the Colorado directly, with biking, picnicking, birding, and boating from the property. The resort also hosts weddings.

Rates for sites, cabins, and condos are on the booking page. Confirm your length band when you reserve.

Rifle Mountain Park

Rifle Mountain Park north of Rifle, Colorado, offers dry camping sites in a limestone canyon, with fire pits, picnic tables, walking trails, and restrooms. One essential detail before you go: this is a dry camping facility with no potable water, no sewer service, and no electrical hookups. Back-in dry camping sites carry fire pits and picnic tables. There are no hookups of any kind and no potable water on site, so arrive fully self-contained with all the water you will need. Restrooms and firewood are available, along with cabins. This is a city-owned outdoor recreation area rather than a commercial campground, and the facilities are scaled accordingly. Pets are welcome. Walking trails run the canyon, with hiking, picnicking, birding, and stargazing from the site. A creek runs through the park. The climbing is what makes this internationally known. Rifle Mountain Park sits at the base of towering limestone cliffs in Rifle Creek Canyon, where more than 250 bolted sport routes across every difficulty grade have been developed over decades. It is one of the most prolific sport climbing destinations in North America and a genuine pilgrimage site for climbers worldwide — the canyon's steep, pocketed limestone is unlike anything else in the country. For campers who are not climbing, the canyon's hiking, creek fishing, and dramatic walls are reason enough. Climbing season runs spring through fall, with the canyon's shade making it viable in summer heat. Reserve ahead for weekends, and plan your water carefully.

Idaho Springs RV Campground

39 RV Sites, 3 Tent Sites

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.
