This is a really nice park, with huge RV sites. We camped in Section C and could see the river from our site. Only reason this is not a 9 or 10 is the noise. Park is right next to I-70 and across river from train tracks. RR was not too bad, but freeway was very noisy. Also, no cell phone reception because of hills. BUT, a really nice park! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Best parts of this campground: Large level sites with decent privacy, shade, and mountain views. Worst points: highway noise, and no view of Colorado river from any of the campsites. We would, however, stay here again. We camped here with one other family and stayed across a large groomed yard from each other, making it feel like we had private space to ourselves. Be aware that the full hook-up sights in general have less shade (or none). The electric only sights were better established with trees, grass, etc. The main bathroom and showers were much cleaner than most campgrounds I have stayed in. We thought at first the highway noise would be bad, but it became background "white" noise after only a few minutes. The kids caught 12 fish during their one evening of fishing from the ponds at the campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Bottom Line Up Front – We would stay here again and recommend the Park to others. We spent one night here while traveling across Colorado. The Park is situated right off Interstate 70 at exit 47. The Park is open all year, but, plan for bare bone facilities during winter months. We had only electric hook-ups and no water or sewer. Shower and bathrooms were closed. Water was available to fill your water tank and a dump station was also available. After 1 April all facilities are available to include full-hookups. Cell phone reception is an iffy 1 to 2 bars. Fishing is available in stocked ponds or the infamous Colorado River right along side the Park. Bang for the buck is questionable in winter. We paid $14 plus $5 vehicle pass for the one night. Sights are level and there are a few big rig pull throughs large enough to where you don’t have to unhitch. This Park is convenient for the in-transit traveler. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a very nice state park. It does have train noise and interstate noise but the river and beauty cancels that out. We spent time here basking in the sun watching wild horses watering and birds of all kinds watering in Colorado River. We will stay again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
