Best Campgrounds near Glade Park, CO

Overnight stay. Nice park park like setting with all the necessary amenities. Very flat concrete site with picnic table and canopy, fire ring, and gravel sitting area. 30 amp electric and water worked great. Excellent Verizon service as well. Nice view of distant mountains. We did occasionally hear a train in the distance, but it did not affect our sleep. Would stay again.

Not a lot going on here, mostly just a flat desert but that’s exactly what we wanted here and it was great. Very easy car camping spot, roads were gravely but not bad. Stars were amazing and it’s quite close to Moab.

Good place to go for a two or four wheel adventure. Lots of hiking and riding trails. Not very remote which has pros and cons. The area is very clean and well maintained. Simple, scattered bathrooms (no showers) at trailhead. Each North Rabbit Valley spot has a table and firepit with a beautiful view.

Amazing views with multiple points of access for overlooks. As typical of national parks no electricity. Quite campground . Utility sink and flushable toilets in B area . A and C closed for season during March. Would be 5 stars if had electricity. No showers. Showers seem to be less important the longer my trip becomes lol

Very well maintained campground with lots of trees and nice sized sites. They use flood irrigation to maintain the grass and plants. Its a bit of a drive to Grand Junction and the Colorado National Monument, but great if you want to get away from the crowds.

The resort may not be busy in the fall, but that just adds to the appeal of staying this season. We arrived late, but check in was a breeze, and we were able to make ourselves comfortable. The bathhouse is heated and in pristine condition. On property their is a very lovely peach orchard, a dog run, and river access which would be ideal for the summer months. The camp sites are close together but have good trees and even plugs! The cabins are comfortable, with heating, mini fridges and microwaves. 

And the best part: Colterris winery is right next door to walk to.

Stayed for 2 night in Sept 24 while traveling with my mother. The bit of AT&T was my mom's favorite part of the site other than the views which it had and a lovely trailhead out of the campground. 

Pros: The trailhead/views, flush toilets, WiFi(At least at our site faceing towards Fruita), trash cans, tables

Cons: Sites were real close together so it really depends on who your next to, for someone like myself with a roof top tent wished the parking spot had been a little flatter, Rec.gov reservations, sandy

The big con of this campground was we had so much difficulty with the Rec.gov app getting a site, but the very helpful folk at the visitor center helped us get a site.

Would definately go there again, just beautiful and jawdropping views, and easy access to the rest of the monument early in the morning

Came to Grand Junction to get my new Timberleaf Teardrop camper and stayed here three nights. Was so thankful that there was still running water and working toilets! Site was slightly sloped but not bad. Super quiet at night. Saw the Milky Way last night! The park is amazing and offers great views and hikes.

Convenient ( quick off highway and close to Colorado NM) park but not much for advenure. Clean bathrooms. Sites were clean and well maintained and not too close together. I imagine it could be warm in summer. Friendly staff.

After searching for campsites around Moab, I drove out  128 and stumbled onto this gem. Just a clear spot on the side of the road adjacent to the Colorado river. Close to the road so there's traffic until late hours but fairly quiet after 10 pm (at least during my stop).

Pit toilet and not much else but a good spot for one or two nights.

Stayed in site 5 Loop A which is right on the river. Could hear and see trains going by occasionally on the other side of river. Sites are pretty well spaced out and have a good shade structure over the picnic table. Lots of flying bugs and it was hot in early July. Have electric hookups but still quite warm. Flush toilets were okay, nothing special. Also have to buy a CO Park Pass, so thats another $10 on top of the reservation fee. 

Food aside: Ate Kikkoman teriyaki rice noodles and Kalua pork, yum!!

We went to Buckeye with six families and somewhere between 10 and 12 kids(The oldest being Nine years old) to celebrate one of the kiddo's 7th birthday. We camped at the group site, which was a big enough place for all of us. We had a mix of camp setups- including a Class B RV, a pop, a hybrid travel trailer, and three or four tents. There was a large common area with plenty of built-in picnic tables and a very large fire pit. All for only$50 a night! The lake was beautiful, and we fished, Sup’d, and swam in the refreshingly cold water. 

There are some monster Rainbow Trout in the lake, and we had fun catching a few with the kids on fly rods, but there were a lot of other campers having good luck with spinner rods. The area also has a good mountain bike trail that us adults enjoyed. The Mtn bike ride starts and ends from the campground, taking you across the border into Utah and then swings back towards CO on a ridge that offers an incredible panorama of the lake and red rock cliffs. The trail is primarily double-track, and we bumped into a few ATVs along the way. 

Overall, if you’re going with a large group, you 100% should book the group site, which is also separated from all the other single campsites. 

We’ll be back! Buckeye is about a 2.5-hour drive from Telluride, where our group lives, and a 1.5-hour drive from Moab, UT.

Lastly, if you're looking to stay connected, there is no cell service or wifi(I have Verizon), although when we rode our bikes to the top of the ridge, I got two bars. You can also drive to the top of the hill in an offroad-capable vehicle if you need to make a call.
