Nice little park

We enjoyed this little RV park. It was quiet and well maintained and just off the main road making it easy to walk about parts of town. Vernal is a nice town with several interesting drives and sites nearby. This RV park is a good launching pad for day trips!

Great location

This place is right off the main road. Stayed here to go to Dinosaur Monument. Friendly owner. Two showers and two toilets for each. Sites are close together but everyone was friendly. Close to food and auto shops.

Great location and friendly staff

This is a great, clean RV park in Vernal. The location is 25 minutes or so to the Dinosaur National Monument. There are so many other things to do in Vernal. We needed more time here.

Great place to stay, lots of shade

So first of all I want to say that the host is extremely nice and very accommodating. We were here at an unusual time of year so fair amount of vacancy, but still he let us stay until the late afternoon before deciding off we wanted to stay and pay for another night, which was awesome.

Park has lots of really big shade trees which would be a HUGE plus during hotter summer months.

Sites were good with the grading of gravel pull through’s and back ins with grassy areas with a picnic table that’s kept in great shape.

Some reviews mention the Main Street traffic and it is a bit loud, but not really anything that bothered us.

We would absolutely visit again!

Big shade trees!

This RV Park has very nice big shade trees and lots of grass. If you get a space towards the back of the Park the road noise mentioned by others isn’t an issue. The spaces are close together or I would rate this a five! We were in Space 45 on the end so were able to take advantage of the parks edge and watched some kids soccer games!

Fossil valley RV park

We stayed here a couple of nights in our 35' motorhome towing a Jeep. The park is in the middle of Vernal and convenient to shopping and restaurants. A good bit of road noise and located next to a tire store. The sites are level, gravel and shaded, but close together (maybe 8'). Park is run by a man named Dennis and his son. They are both very helpful and pleasant. The park is very clean and well kept. The bathrooms are very clean, but you have to pay extra for showers. The park also has a laundry with three washers and the dryers. Dennis has plenty of quarters for change.

Site28 or 29. First site in the park.
