Best RV Parks & Resorts near White River National Forest

I haven't actually stayed here yet but it's on my list. I did have a picnic down by the river and walked the grounds. It's a nice quiet place and like I said I will be back to RV camp. They have water front sites for tent camping and rv hookups up the hill. The cabins looked really nice too! This campground is right on the glenwood canyon bike trail that goes all the way into glenwood springs! Will return and do recommend.

This place never fails. Always beautiful, great sunrises and sunsets. There's bathrooms and RV hook ups. Always a nice place. However it's pretty exposed so not alot of cover from wind. Always great to walk aroethe lake. Paddle boarding is a must if you own one. I'm not sure about any showers, i doubt it. Yes to designated camp fire rings. Like always pack in snd pack out.

This campground is located right in town and walking distance to everything. However, it’s surprisingly quiet. I expected it to be much louder but was pleasantly surprised. There’s a friendly fox that roams the campground and a few marmots. The sights are clean but close together, as is with most RV parks. The bathroom is a little older but works great. The host keeps them clean and working well. We got up early and beat the crowds to crystal mill then walked from our campsite to slow groovin BBQ for dinner. Overall it’s a great place to stay if you’re wanting full hook ups while exploring the marble area.

We weren't planning on staying in Fairplay, but it was getting late so we tried Middlefork RV Park. The sites are all gravel, ours was nice and level. You can get either full hookups or water/electric only. There is a dump station on site. You can pan for gold or trout fish right at the campground. I didn't check out the shower house, it's at the far end of the campground.

One of the nicest RV resorts we’ve found. Sites are spacious, very well maintained, and the grounds are beautiful. Breckinridge has a lot to offer, as does surrounding area. Late September colors, especially Aspen trees, are awesome. We’ll be back.

This park has amazing views!!! They had a couple spaces for large motor homes and we fit fine without unhooking. The manager was very friendly and took us to our site. It appears to have mostly long term residents and some campers are pretty bad. It’s right on the highway so lots of road noise. The gravel road leading to the campground is in need of a repair. It was perfect for 1 night.

This RV resort is a fantastic location & open year-round. The park is clean and has lots of shade. The price is a little steep but you get lots of amenities. There is an indoor pool, two spas & men’s and women’s shower and dressing rooms. The only negative besides the price on this campground is the garbage is centrally located at the clubhouse which can be far from many campsites. The staff is very friendly and helpful. 

Pretty much your average RV Park, though the bathrooms and showers were exceptional. Finding the place is a bit of a challenge though. You have to turn into a shopping Center parking lot, and go down a small dirt road on the west side of the lot. Kind of a weird setup but I guess because of the topography they had no choice. Front office dude was not really very friendly or welcoming. Some weird guy kept wandering around out in the field behind the RV spaces talking to himself.

After spending three nights in forest service campgrounds, we landed here, lucky to find a place with availability on a weekend in September (reservations made a month in advance). We opted for a riverfront RV site (#17) and we were right on the Colorado River, with the soothing white noise of the river putting us to sleep each night (interrupted only by the occasional LOUD train on the other side of the river). 

This place has every kind of accommodation possible: (resort) cabins, cottages, glamping campsites, individual and group tent sites, and RV sites (some with full hook-ups, some with water and electric, some on the river, and some above it). The sites are laid out in typical RV park style, lined up like dominoes. This is not our typical preferred camping, but we were with friends, so we were able to create a little oasis between our sites. 

The fire in August, Covid, and snow the first week of September essentially shut down all the extras this place has to offer– zip line, rock climbing wall, ropes course, and restaurant, so I cannot comment on these. But, Defiance Rafting is located on the property; while they were no longer able to offer rafting trips (due to potential rock slides resulting from fire damage), they did rent inflatable kayaks and we took advantage of this and had a rolling good time on the Colorado River! 

The office staff is very nice and there is a small store in the office offering t-shirts, stickers, hats, etc. (but not food essentials). It is located about three miles from the town of Glenwood Springs and there is a trail leading from the resort that winds along the river to town. The trail east of the resort was still closed after the fire. 

The bath/shower house was clean, but the shower set-up was funky in that there was no private area to undress/dress. The only other unpleasant thing was the odor emanating from what I would assume to be the waste/sewage facility and it was necessary to walk past it from the riverfront sites to the bathrooms. This and the price ($88 for a riverfront site) have me giving this place four stars instead of five, although I would consider staying here again if in the area.

We enjoyed our stay here very much! Jeff has the place in fantastic shape and is very accommodating. There are very nice full hook-up sites as well as beautiful tent sites here. Bathroom and showers are spotless, too. And, rates are very reasonable!

We are Colorado folks and know where to find great campgrounds. We always enjoy Arkansas Rim and highly recommend it!

This was a great find a few miles off Interstate 70.  The site we had was as close to the creek one could get and we enjoyed sitting out listening to the flowing water.

The camp managers, Dawn and Earl, went the extra mile to make our week enjoyable and checked in on us daily to see if we needed firewood or anything else.

They offer full hook ups, cabins, tent sites.  Small store on site with limited supply of camping goods.

Glenwood Springs is nearby.  Also not far to see some amazing water falls at Rifle Falls State Park.

In Kremmling, the Red Mountain Lodge is a large RV campground with some cabins and motel rooms. It was a bit confusing trying to navigate the access roads in the campground as it was extremely large. However it had several amenities including a pool, free showers (that campers from outside of town can come use for a small fee), full hook-ups, access to the many off highway trails heading out of town (including trails that start in the campground), access to the Silverton Railroad Station (a few blocks away), jeep rentals, hot tub, rec center, laundry, and a playground. There is a SMALL tent area that is really just a grassy lawn between two of the rental units. The rental units are older and in need of some sprucing up (the paint on the exterior was peeling in large swaths). A short walk down the road takes you to some good restaurants as well as a microbrewery. Across the street is the grocery store/general store/post office, and a gas station is just down the road.

Nice setting. Very Narrow roads. There are no showers and only pit toilets. Only two, somewhat inconvenient and narrow spots to fill us RV water tanks.

No cell service (AT&T or Verizon)

This beautiful campground is located in the White River National Forest near Redstone. A quiet location, with nicely spaced sites and ridiculously clean bathrooms. Our site, #26, was right next to the roaring Crystal River. The views are spectacular and the entire area is gorfeous. .

The Prospector Campground in White River National Forest is on the Shadow Mountain Road, off the east end of Dillon Reservoir, easily accessible from I-70 heading toward Keystone and Arapahoe Basin. It's well-managed, with the plentiful toilets getting twice-daily service from the genial hosts. Like most National Forest campgrounds, reservations can be made on line, a good idea during busy summer weekends. In addition to the gorgeous scenery, what was impressive about Prospector is the size and spacing of the campsites ... you're not right on top of your neighbor, but you're still on a level pad with a fire ring at every spot.

Upon first entering the park, we missed the sign and the roads seemed a little rough. However, staff are incredibly helpful and let us check in earlier than we had planned on. They were also very knowledgeable and able to answer all our questions. Bathrooms are very clean and the rv park itself has some wonderful views.

Not all sites have that awesome lake view. But the Mountain View’s are spectacular. This is a large campground with 107 sites. When you book you can see that just a few sites in the 50’s have that lake view. There is an RV water full at the entrance. A trail to the lake. Windy point trail is not far and an easy walk from our campsite.

Looking for a Summit County RV park, there is no better. We stayed in March for some spring skiing. Not only was it one of few if not the only park open during the winter months but is located right in between Breckenridge, Keystone and A Basin. Vail is even less than an hour. We enjoyed our time so much we returned in April. Clean, friendly park with nice bathrooms and lots of family friendly amenities.

The road up to the campsites is pretty well maintained but you do gain a good amount of elevation. The scenery is beautiful with lot of wild flowers and tall, towering trees. It rained before we got there and there was some moisture on the tent the morning after. Make sure to follow the road to Four Mile Park and continue up the road for another 20 minutes or so. You will see a pull off to the right with a sign for the White River National Forest. Continue on to find some more campsites

This campground is located in the town of Frisco, CO, but feels like being in the wilderness. Shopping and restaurants are 10 minutes from the Campground. Very clean campground. This is the only campground around Lake Dillon with flush toilets and sinks. There is walk up access to the lake for kayaks and paddle boards. A few camp sites have direct access to the lake. This campground is part of the White River National Forest and is managed by CLM with 2 camp host couples on site who are very helpful. Make reservations in advance, especially for weekends, because it fills up quickly.
