Base Camp Family Campground

Welcome to Base Camp Family Campground, a family-friendly campground in Southern Colorado crafted with insights from the Norris brothers' extensive RVing experiences.

Situated amid towering 14,000 ft. mountain peaks, the campground is set in a unique high-desert alpine valley, surrounded by artesian wells, hot springs, and wetlands. Bask in 350 sunlit days annually with average summer temperatures hovering around 65 degrees. Historically, this valley holds profound significance for Native American tribes as a source of life and a peaceful passage. Blanca Peak marks its boundary, and the region's spiritual essence continues with 30 global religious centers in the nearby Crestone area. Join us, and find your center at Base Camp.

Salida RV Resort

85 RV Sites

Salida RV Resort in Colorado offers 85 full-hookup RV sites on more than 1,600 feet of private Arkansas River frontage, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout.

Every category is named for its outlook, which tells you what the property is selling — river or mountains, and how close. A laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A boat ramp gives direct river access for boating and fishing, with a fitness center, clubhouse, game room, billiards, pickleball, sports courts, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, and dog park filling the grounds. Pets are welcome. Private river frontage in Chaffee County is a serious claim. The Arkansas carves through the Sawatch Range's eastern foothills between the Collegiate Peaks and the Sangre de Cristos here, and the whitewater, fishing, and trail access make this one of the most concentrated adventure-sport landscapes in the American West. Salida's historic downtown is close. Summer is peak in the Colorado high country, when the rafting season runs and the passes are open. Reserve well ahead for June through August, with fall color drawing a strong September.

Chinook Cabins & RV Park

17 RV Sites

Chinook Cabins and RV Park in South Fork, Colorado, offers 17 full-hookup back-in RV sites in the upper Rio Grande valley, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. A single 30/50-amp back-in category means every guest gets the same spec, with cabins, a pavilion, community fire pit, laundry, and showers. Seventeen back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 40 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. One consistent category and no guesswork about what you booked; note the 40-foot cap before bringing a larger coach. Cabins round out the lodging. A laundry, showers, firewood, and a pavilion handle the practical side. A community fire pit, basketball, and horseshoes fill the grounds, with skiing, snowboarding, offroading, a golf course, mountains, a lake, and a river all nearby. The dark San Juan sky makes for exceptional stargazing. Pets are welcome. The property has operated since 1908, which makes it one of the oldest continuously running camping and lodging businesses in the southern Rockies — 117 years of the same job in the same valley is worth noting. South Fork sits where the South Fork River meets the Rio Grande in the San Juan Mountains, with Wolf Creek Pass and its enormous snowpack just west, the Rio Grande's Gold Medal trout water running through, Creede's mining history north, and the Great Sand Dunes within reach east. Summer is peak in the Colorado high country, with fall color and Wolf Creek's ski season extending demand. Reserve well ahead for June through September.

Aspen Ridge RV Park

35 RV Sites

Aspen Ridge RV Park in South Fork, Colorado, offers 35 full-hookup RV sites at the confluence of the South Fork and Rio Grande Rivers, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 55 feet. Back-in, pull-through, and deluxe patio back-in categories sit at 8,200 feet in the upper Rio Grande valley. Thirty-five sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp across back-in, pull-through, and deluxe patio back-in configurations, sized to 55 feet, with picnic tables. Trailer rentals serve guests without a rig. Laundry, restrooms, showers, and a pavilion handle the practical side, with a community fire pit for evenings. Pets are welcome. On-site facilities are practical rather than programmed — this is a base for the surrounding mountains, and the valley does the work. Fishing runs from the rivers, with basketball on the grounds and a national park within reach. South Fork sits between Mineral and Rio Grande Counties at the gateway to the Rio Grande National Forest, the Weminuche Wilderness, and the Silver Thread Scenic Byway's mountain driving corridor — one of the least-visited and most naturally spectacular sections of the southern Colorado Rockies. The town's year-round resident community and resort economy sustain the full practical service infrastructure that serious mountain recreation requires, and the park's central valley position gives the best access to the fishing, hiking, skiing, and scenic driving in the drainage. The elevation shapes the season sharply. Summer fishing and hiking drive the peak, with fall color in the aspens a second draw and winter bringing ski traffic. Reserve ahead for July, August, and late September.
