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.
Legend
Not to much space between rigs, but is very quiet and bit expensive. Very close to the Monument State Park.

Stayed in RV site along creek, which was quite nice with the sound of the water. Unfortunately, sites were not roomy, were close to each other and close to the campground road. Dogs next spot over were not restrained and roamed freely, in front of campground staff. Children wandered around. Smokers walked right by van and smoke smell came right in.
Showers and restrooms were decent and clean and had hot water but centrally located so a bit of a walk.
Food aside: Ate take out from pizza place in town, which was good. Breakfast was sausage and instant egg burritos. Yum.

We recently stayed here for two nights. The camp hosts and maintenance employees were incredibly friendly. There is some highway noise, but it didn't bother us with some ear plugs in and rain sounds playing on my phone. The night sky is amazing at this dark sky park. I can't say enough good things about this campground, we will define back.

We’re Van camping in the lower campground, 50’ from the banks of the Colorado River. Electric & Water. Cabins avl. On the River and upper grounds. Our site, 44 is also located off set and below the deck of the resort event center. (Weekend celebrations may offend some, not us) quite time is 10pm. We’ve enjoyed watching Rafters, Kayakers & Geese float & fly the turns of the River. Wonderful staff. Available if needed. Kevin, manager; generous & helpful. Twilla, the work & stay host att. Is super attentive. Clean, accessible Bathhouse facilities. Discounts on rafting while booked at GCR. 1.7m to downtown Glenwood, (foodies, cute shops) bike path, or… just hang by the river near the boat launch & tent sites. (Our fav. spots!) Great place to R&R, Hot springs, Hike…
GuideStellar amenities, electricity at every pad, great showers, easy and very close river access.
Really great spot but prepare to roll. All of the tent pads seem to be at a pretty wicked slope, including ours.
TravelerWe came from 6 nights in the mountains and spent 1 night in our rooftop tent on an electric river site. It was the perfect spot in Palisade. The bathhouse was very clean and convenient. One side of the building had men and women restrooms with showers. The other side had family bathrooms with one toilet, one shower, and one sink. The bathhouse was air conditioned which was very appreciated! It was hot out!!! While we were sitting around our firebox campfire, staff rolled up on a golf cart with fresh peaches to try that were picked that day. That was a nice surprise! We bought one for later in our trip!
Scout
Everything worked, quiet in the RV. Only the toilets were hot like a sauna
LegendLoved the location. Right on the Colorado River. Bike path is right out the front. We rode it from Aspen down valley and right back to our campsite. A feature we really liked.
The sites were tight. Class A's take up most of it. The good thing is the row we were on had lots of room to maneuver in front of the site. The Laundry room was broke the 3 days we were there. So prepare for that. I would be back just because of the location.
Scout
The KOA Glenwood Springs campground offers pleasant amenities, however, there are concerns regarding the maintenance and the professionalism of the staff. Multiple guests, including ourselves and fellow RVers, encountered rudeness characterized by a lack of care, communication, and basic courtesy. This experience with the staff significantly impacts our decision to not return to this location.
Guide
This was a great spot, it was hidden but there were a ton of people, they recently redid the back roads to get here and it was extremely busy (we had a rig pull up right next us at 1 am because there werent any spots). It is really pretty and close to Grand Junction. The misquote r pretty bad also, tons of spots, if there aren't a ton of people. Lots of lakes though and great fishing!
ScoutI was a little worried after we booked this campground, but it wasn't horrible. It's super close to the hot springs, downtown area and gondola for the adventure park shopping etc. There is noise from the freeway, but it didn't bother us and I liked the view of the Colorado River. The roads leading in are a little rough. My family of 6 needs were met and that's all that mattered to us. Also having a extra clean shower on hand was really helpful. We had a great experience. I do wish our site (10)had more shade. For 62 bucks a night we definitely come back. The location was close to everything. Also only 30 minutes from Rifle state park.
LegendWe spent a night here and were very pleasantly surprised by the facilities and the warm welcome from the staff. The campsites are small in size, but very clean. The creek running through the campground is beautiful. We would cheerfully stop in again. Very nice looking little cabins are available should you have forgotten your camping equipment. But they do ask you to bring your own linens!
ScoutWe stayed here with the family in our camper for a local running event. First time in Fruita and we’ll definitely be back to this RV Park again next year.
GuideThe location is good since it by the wineries and the Colorado river but the sites are all all jammed in together with no trees. The bathrooms are really nice though. The Van sites have almost no space to put out an awning. The camp store is very limited and the hours are not good.

TRAVELER BEWARE!!! This park uses bait-and-switch practices. First, the pictures posted on Junction West Grand Junction’s website are not representative of the park. This park is filled with permanent residents, skirted trailers, and lots of“stuff” clogging up sites and roads. Second, confirmations and guaranteed reservations mean nothing to Junction West. We had a 3-night, paid-in-full confirmed and guaranteed stay in a standard pull-through site for our 35’ rig. Upon arrival we were directed to a small back-in site that did not allow parking for our truck and it would have been impossible to back the rig in due to all of the vehicles parked on the streets. Junction West was unable to honor our reservation without moving us at least once to different sites in our 3-night stay. This was unacceptable and forced us to go elsewhere. Junction West refused to fully refund us for their mistake. They did, however, refund 2 of the 3 nights and sent an altered confirmation back to us– BAIT-AND-SWITCH. The only bright spot in this interaction was the park we found as an alternative, Canyon West, was amazing. Canyon West RV Park is 10 times better FOR THE SAME PRICE as Junction WEST.

I had an amazing trip to the ranch, I stayed at the Faith RV spot for the electricity and just loved it, listening to the wonderful goats during the day, enjoying peace and tranquility. I will definitely be visiting again very soon!
LegendGeneral: A mix of pull-thru RV sites, back-in van sites, and walk-in tent sites. We called about two weeks prior and were happy to secure a site on a Saturday at the very end of April. This campground is located right on I70 so you will definitely hear highway noise (and occasional train noise). The sites are stacked on a hillside and as would be expected in an RV park, there is little separation/privacy between sites. The road in is a bit rough but so were many of the area roads after a harsh winter.
Site Quality: Sites are gravel. Site 55 was just long enough for our 18-foot van to fit. Not all of the van sites had picnic tables, but our site had a table where we could set up our camp stove and we ate inside our van. It also looked like there was a gas grill that might be shared for the van sites, but we didn’t inquire about it/use it. We had a fire pit but didn’t use it. Fires are NOT permitted in the RV sites and although there was a sign indicating a fire ban, you could speak with the office to see if fires are currently permitted in designated campfire pits.
Bath/Shower house: Was very clean and nicely appointed. Did not use the shower.
We chose this campground knowing we would hear highway noise, but it was a convenient location for our hike to Hanging Lake the next day. Craig was very welcoming both on the phone and upon our arrival.
ScoutThe road leading into the campground is steep and very rough. The attendata was very friendly. Pull through site was nice, but some sites would be tricky to back into with a mid to large RV. Couldn't find a garbage dumpster so hauled the trash out with us. It served it purpose, but was pricing for what was there in my opinion.
TravelerSuper friendly hosts and no problem finding a spot without reservation. Really close to the I-70 but still nice and quiet for the night. Also nice facilities and good wifi
ScoutEverything in this area is expensive. We were skeptical of tents at an RV park but they have a dedicated tent area that is right next to the river. The tent pad was big enough for one big and one small tent. The bathrooms are very clean and nice! We waded to the middle of the river and watched the sun set against a hill. Beautiful!
TravelerLet's shout it from the rooftops this place is Amazing! Nestled in a fabulous forested valley in Newcastle. Far enough away from the bustle of the city and the sounds of traffic and highway. Yet close enough for all your adventurous wants and needs! The creek that runs thru the campground is a pure delight to dip and play in. Whether you select a riverside site or not the creek is accessible to all visitors! It's been a blessing to call this place home for the time we are allowed! Thank you Elk Creek Campground for all the amazing support and help you provided! Shane, Lisa, Steven, Mark, LOGAN, Terry and Tom, thank you for all the hard work and effort you put into this glorious place!

Loved this RV park! It was super quiet and peaceful. Meeker is one of my favorite towns in Colorado. Everyone is too nice there! Stayed for two weeks and will be back again. Laundry onsite, bathrooms and showers were cleaned daily. Was a few weeds growing here and there but the owners sprayed the day before we left! Meeker Airport is just across the highway so every once in awhile you could see cool helicopters, airplanes come in and fly away.

Tried to camp there last week on a trip out west but I-70 was closed by the Colorado Dept of Transportation at mile marker 116 because of a mudslide. I was coming from Grand Junction and the Glenwood Canyon Resort is at MM 119 so there was no way to get there from the West. I tried to call the office but it was after 6 pm so no one answered. Found a place to plug in and called the next morning to get a refund and was told their no cancellation policy wouldn't allow me to get a refund even when the highway was closed in the canyon which does happen now and then. Their lame justification was that other people made it there last night and implied that I should have kept driving into a closed interstate highway and try to sneak through. Amazing. I lost the mobile signal while discussing and called back several times and left a voicemail but they didn't want to deal with me so this is my only option. So, unless you are willing to give them your money with no recourse when Glenwood Canyon closes, you are at risk of losing it.

It was nice to have 2 bathrooms with showers and enough room for 2 separate families. Nice kitchen area and great location for SXS adventures. Meeker is very SXS friendly.
TravelerLast May my husband and I stayed at their super cozy cottage equipped with all we needed and more. Breathing mountain views, walking distance to the town and wine tasting, hanging with goats and chickens, peaceful, safe and definitely relaxing. We are planning out next stay, we want to bring friends and family and experience other accomodations like the school bus or the tiki. The location is perfect, dark sky to admire the stars, and friendly hosts in site!
Recomiendo a todas las familias afortunadas de vivir Denver, fuimos a un concierto en Red Rocks y nos aventuramos a visitar Sage View Ranch. El Rancho es muy tranquilo, seguro, y perfecto para campar! Los anfitriones son muy amables y las experiencias a su alrededor espectaculares. Nosotros somos de la ciudad de Minneapolis en Minnesota, y valió la pena el viaje, perfecto para escapar de la gran ciudad!
GuideHappy to have found this gem. Hot showers, community gas grill, restrooms, available. Not to mention great views
