Best RV Parks & Resorts in Colorado
Colorado National Monument, Mesa Verde National Park, and Rocky Mountain National Park feature established campgrounds with varying RV accommodations. The South Rim Campground at Black Canyon of the Gunnison provides both 30-amp hookups and water connections with sites that accommodate larger vehicles. Chatfield State Park Campground near Littleton offers year-round camping with full hookup sites including 50-amp service for larger motorhomes. "The sites are well maintained and the reservoir is always fun to get out on the boat," notes one camper about Chatfield. Saddlehorn Campground at Colorado National Monument has big-rig friendly sites but without electrical connections, while Moraine Park in Rocky Mountain National Park provides electric hookups but limited space for larger RVs.
Road conditions and elevation changes require planning when navigating to mountain destinations. Many Colorado RV parks include sanitary dump stations, including Morefield Campground at Mesa Verde and Pinon Flats at Great Sand Dunes National Park. Seasonal availability varies significantly with some parks operating year-round while others close during winter months - Mueller State Park remains open throughout the year while Glacier Basin Campground operates only from late May through early September. Cell service quality fluctuates dramatically in mountain locations, though most established campgrounds allow pets. One visitor noted the road to Blue Lake Campground "needs to be graded; I think I have a couple of loose fillings from all the wash boarding," highlighting the importance of researching access roads before arriving with larger rigs.
