Cozy campground near Carbondale

This quaint little campground is just below the highway. While there is quite a bit of highway noise when outside, it didn’t bother us when we were inside our trailer.

The double wide sites offer picnic tables and a fire ring, along with full hookups. The facilities are well maintained and clean. The sites are a bit shallow (we could not lower the rear patio on our 25’ toy hauler).

Only minutes away from the cute little town of Carbondale. Here there are plenty of options to stuff your belly with great food and/or wet your whistle with local beers/distillations.

Located just above a beautiful river, the campground is close to a partially-paved 40+ mi bike path (Aspen <> Glenwood Springs). Although we didn’t have time to ride them, Trailforks shows some nice MTB trails nearby as well.

"Basecamp" says it all!

If you're visiting Palisade, this is a great place to call home.  Easy to get downtown for food, winetasting, etc.  If you're thinking about taking "The Plunge", it's a short ride (1.5 mi) to Rapid Cycle where you can catch the suttle and another short ride (2mi) from the end of the trail back to camp.  Spectacular views abound, and the amenities are very nice.  We had an excellent long weekend here and will return again soon.

If I were to nitpick, a couple of trees would be nice on the RV lots.  Especially when the weather was pushing >100 this past weekend.  But, this really is being nitpicky!  Everything else was fantastic.

Great Place to stay

Stayed here a weekend to get in some mountain biking in nearby Price.  Everything in the park is immaculate, and very well maintained.  The staff was extraordinarily friendly, even inviting us to play some cornhole with them in the evening.  We backed up to the river, and our lot was very spacious.

Downtown Helper is just a short walk away.  Cute little area that looks like there is quite a bit of restoration/renovation underway.

In April, still a bit chilling in the evening/morning.  Warmed up nicely in the afternoon.

We found a new favorite place to avoid some of the Moab crowd.

Convenient for MTB riders

We originally stayed here as a layover on our way to Havasu.  When we discovered the MTB and Downhill riding nearby, we stayed a couple more nights on our way back.  The park is very clean and well maintained.  There are a few long-term residents, but their rigs are all well maintained, too.  A great place to use as a base camp for some serious riding (double-diamond).  Bould City has a beautiful downtown area that is minutes away.

One of the best State Parks

River Island is one of the nicest state parks I have been to.  All of the facilities are extremely well kept with immaculate bathrooms and an awesome dog park!  There is a boat launch and an area where ever the dogs can cool off in the lake.  In addition to enjoying the lake, there is an MTB Trail system just outside of Havasu City (20 Miles) with a good mix of riding.

Near MTB Riding

We stayed here to get in some MTB riding.  The park is conveniently located whether you want to ride the East or West side/s of Cedar City.  The park is clean, mostly level, and has a nice dog park.  Our site was near the entrance, which meant we were close to Main St and quite a bit of traffic noise.  Next time, I'd look for a place more towards the back of the park.

Quiet, with a bit of history nearby

Only about 5-10 minutes off I-80, it won't take you long to get here.  It is fare enough away that you won't hear any sounds coming from the interstate.  Our host was extremely sweet, and the facilities were very clean.  Sit back and watch/listen to the nearby cows.  Or, check out the nearby Fort Bridger Museum.

Convenient, right off I-80

We stayed here during the off-season, all of the facilities were closed.  The sites are level and easy to pull into.  There is a nice little lake/pond where we saw a lot of birds.  One thing to watch out for, are the little burrs that stick to your shoes.  You'll hear your shoes clicking on the floor of the RV if you don't pick them out.

Nice stop right along I-80

This was our very first stop with our new RV.  The park is very well maintained, and as others mentioned, there were no long-term campers.  While it is close to the freeway, the noise never seemed to bother us.  There is a nice little pond to walk around too.

Patti and Todd are awesome hosts.  It was near freezing when we stayed, so the free firewood helped keep us warm! Todd was even out there helping us newbies pack up our rig when it was time to go.  Will stay here again, if just for the hospitality!
