Glenwood Canyon Resort
Reviewed Jun. 9, 2020

Near Perfection on the Colorado River

Wow! This is a beautiful spot. The lower campground is for tents and smaller RVs, but is definitely the spot to be if you can swing it! This campground has cabins, glamping tents, tent pads and spaces for RVs. We camped in spaces 17 and 18 in the lower campground right by the river. The “resorts has a rafting company, zip line, and restaurant/bar on premises.

Pros:

  • Easy to access off of I-70, but you feel a million miles away
  • Gorgeous scenery all around
  • Very easy access to the bike/walk trail through Glenwood Canyon
  • 5 to 10 minute drive to Glenwood Springs attractions - Hot Springs, Gondola, downtown shopping a land restaurants

Cons:

  • Spaces are EXTREMELY close together
  • The train runs by, which is very nice to see and experience as it runs through the canyon, but at 5 am, that sucker is LOUD
  • It’s a pricey campground, but could be worth it if you take advantage of all the amenities and it fits in your plans

Overall, this is a great campground. I might save it for a mid-week stay or slightly off season so you aren’t stacked on top of your neighbors.
