Anglers and hikers heading to Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park have a convenient base in Cimarron, Colorado, where Black Canyon RV Park & Campground sits along US Highway 50 with full hookups and room for rigs up to 60 feet. The highway location means road noise is part of the deal, though at least one reviewer noted the campground itself stayed quiet during their stay. The surrounding landscape draws consistent attention across reviews, with open sightlines toward the canyon country that defines this stretch of western Colorado.
The grounds are well-maintained. Multiple visitors highlight clean bathrooms, showers, and laundry facilities, though the laundry machines require quarters and there's no change machine on site. One practical note: sites have limited gravel, so rain can turn things muddy and RV rugs are not permitted. The camp host receives positive marks for friendliness, but the office keeps irregular hours, so tracking someone down for questions or change can take some patience.
cvermeyen calls it "very well cared for grounds," a sentiment echoed across most reviews. WiFi works reliably, a detail worth noting given the remote setting and limited cell service in the area. Full electric, water, and sewer hookups make this a functional stop for RV travelers who want amenities without roughing it. Nearby, Pleasant Valley Cabins and Campground sits just over a mile west for those considering alternatives along the same corridor.
The campground runs from May through November and accepts reservations, which makes sense to use given its proximity to a popular national park. It works best for RV travelers who want a clean, serviced overnight stop with access to camping near Montrose and the broader canyon country to the east.
