Campgrounds near North Washington, Colorado
North Washington is an unincorporated community in Adams County, sitting just north of downtown Denver along the I-25 and I-76 corridor. For RV travelers, it functions as a Denver metro base: close to the city, close to Denver International Airport, and within a short drive of the Front Range foothills. Elevation is roughly one mile, and the surrounding terrain is high plains rolling west toward the Rocky Mountains.
RV parks in the immediate area lean toward full-hookup, urban-style properties built for road-trippers and long-term stays. Applewood RV Resort and Dakota Ridge RV Park sit on the west side of the metro with quick access to Golden and the foothills, while Denver Meadows RV Park and Flying Saucer RV Park serve travelers who want to stay closer to Aurora and the north metro. Ridgeline at River Run 55+ Lifestyle Community is age-restricted for residents who meet its policy.
Beyond private parks, Colorado state park camping can be reserved up to six months in advance through CPWshop.com or by phone, opening options at Cherry Creek, Chatfield, and St. Vrain within about an hour's drive.
Things to do near North Washington
Downtown Denver is a short drive south, putting the Denver Zoo, Denver Museum of Nature and Science, Coors Field, and the 16th Street pedestrian corridor within easy reach. RV travelers can also day-trip to Red Rocks Park, the Coors Brewery tour in Golden, and Dinosaur Ridge on the west side of the metro.
Outdoor options ring the city. Denver sits at 5,280 feet, and the surrounding metro serves as a launch point for hikes in the foothills, paddling and fishing at Cherry Creek and Chatfield reservoirs, and cycling on the South Platte and Cherry Creek trail systems.
For a longer excursion, Rocky Mountain National Park is roughly a ninety-minute drive northwest. RVs are allowed on all roads in the park, with the exception of Old Fall River Road where vehicles over 25 feet and those pulling trailers are prohibited. The park has its own reservation-based campgrounds at Moraine Park, Aspenglen, and Glacier Basin, or travelers can base at a Front Range site and visit for the day using a timed-entry reservation.

Seasonal information for North Washington

December - February
45° / 19°F 14 mmCold and dry; snowstorms can close mountain passes.
The Denver metro has four distinct seasons and a semi-arid climate. With mile-high elevation and the Rockies immediately west, conditions shift quickly, and peak RV season runs late spring through early fall, when daytime temperatures are warm and mountain roads are clear.
Summer is the busiest window for campgrounds and mountain trailheads, with hot afternoons and frequent short thunderstorms driven by monsoon moisture from mid-July onward. Early fall brings cooler nights, thinner crowds, and aspen color at higher elevations, making September a favorite for RV travelers who want quieter sites and comfortable driving weather.
Winter camping is possible but requires preparation. Most Denver-area private RV parks stay open year-round, though sub-freezing nights, blowing snow, and the need to protect water lines are real considerations. Snowstorms can close mountain passes on short notice, and some higher-elevation state park loops close for the season, so travelers heading into the high country should check road status before rolling out.

We had a wonderful time. Elissa was very informative, responsive to any questions and very helpful with suggestions. We were first time van renters and we now have a desire to continue.
Tracy H. - Sep 2024
Just book it already! It’s the van you want! The van itself has everything you need! Spacious! Easy to drive and an amazing turning radius! And not bad in gas. The Host is even better! Super sweet, helpful and knowledgeable about Colorado! I had the most random questions and she’d answer them and get back to me promptly. I can’t wait to go back and explore more with EJ’s vans!
Tatiana H. - Sep 2024
We had a wonderful time renting Barry’s RV! Barry was wonderful to work with, helping me adjust my dates when our plans changed. He was quick to respond, even for small questions. His RV had everything my family of 6 hoped for: bed linens, pillows, towels, dishes, pots and pans, utensils….. on and on. It was so well stocked. The RV was easier to drive than I expected and had several external cameras for helping with turns and lane changes. Barry made our trip a success and I can’t wait to rent from him again!
Jennifer D. - Jul 2025
Barry was super easy to work with and will definitely be booking with him again on our next trip to the Denver area!

How to book campgrounds near North Washington
Private RV parks in the metro, including Applewood RV Resort, Dakota Ridge RV Park, Denver Meadows RV Park, and Flying Saucer RV Park, take bookings directly through each property's website or phone line. Summer weekends and events at Red Rocks or Coors Field can fill sites weeks out, so reserve early. Ridgeline at River Run 55+ Lifestyle Community is age-restricted, so confirm eligibility before booking.
For state parks near Denver, the process is different. Colorado is the only major state system where every single park requires a reservation. There is no walk-up or first-come-first-served camping at state parks. Colorado State Parks open reservations 6 months in advance on a rolling basis at midnight Mountain Time. Bookings run through CPWshop.com or by phone at 1-800-244-5613.
What to expect at North Washington campgrounds
Most metro RV parks are paved or graveled urban properties with full hookups, laundry, and Wi-Fi rather than wooded, remote settings. Expect sites positioned close together and quick interstate access. Applewood RV Resort in Wheat Ridge offers 30 and 50-amp hookups with picnic tables at each site, and neighboring parks follow a similar full-service pattern.
Cell service is generally strong across the metro on major carriers, and grocery, fuel, and dump stations are easy to find. Park Wi-Fi quality varies site to site, so travelers who work on the road typically plan around a personal hotspot as a backup.
At this elevation, sun exposure is intense and afternoons can shift from clear to stormy quickly. Pack layers, sun protection, and rain gear even in mid-summer, and top off water and fuel before heading into the mountains.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near North Washington, CO
How much does it cost to rent an RV in North Washington, CO?
RV rental in North Washington is generally more affordable than booking near downtown Denver. Travel trailers typically start around $90 to $150 per night, Class C motorhomes run $150 to $250, and larger Class A coaches range from $225 to $375. Because North Washington sits just north of I-70 and I-270, you will find a wide mix of hosts and price points within a short drive. For a cheap RV rental in North Washington, book midweek pickups in April, May, or October when rates drop and many Colorado campgrounds are still open. Pro tip: filter by Delivery to skip the rental lot entirely and have the RV brought to your campsite.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=North%20Washington%2C%20ColoradoWhat license do I need to rent an RV in North Washington?
Good news: a regular Colorado driver's license (or any valid US or Canadian license) is all you need to rent an RV in North Washington. There is no special RV endorsement or Commercial Driver's License (CDL) required for motorhomes or trailers offered on the RVezy platform. Approved drivers must generally be 25 or older, and ID verification happens through the platform during booking. Visiting from overseas? Bring an International Driving Permit (IDP) from your home country along with your original license. Most first-time renters are surprised at how simple the paperwork is, you are often booked and confirmed in minutes.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat protection is included with my RV rental?
Every eligible RVezy booking in North Washington includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you are covered from the moment you drive off. The protection plan helps cover accidental damage to the RV during your trip, giving you real peace of mind without buying a separate policy. During checkout, you choose the coverage level that fits your trip, and you can see exactly what each tier includes before you confirm. Pro tip: if you are a first time renter heading into the Rockies on I-70, the higher tier is worth it for the lower deductible alone.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat happens if I need to cancel my RV trip?
You can book with confidence because RVezy sets a clear, standardized cancellation policy, not the host. There is a full money-back grace period right after booking, and after that your refund depends on how far out from your trip you cancel. If a host cancels on you, RVezy helps you rebook or provides a refund or travel credit. Because Colorado weather can shift fast, especially spring snowstorms and late summer hail near Denver, it is smart to book early and review the current policy details on the RVezy Help Center before you confirm so you know exactly where you stand.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on an RV rental in North Washington?
Absolutely, pet-friendly RV rental in North Washington is easy to find, just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter and you will see dog-welcoming rigs within minutes of pickup. Many hosts include pet bedding or bowls, and some charge a small cleaning fee (typically $25 to $75) shown upfront. Your pup will love the area too: Barr Lake State Park's perimeter trail allows leashed dogs on the east side, and Riverdale Regional Park in nearby Brighton has open green space about 15 minutes north. Pro tip: message the host before booking to mention your dog's size and breed, it speeds approval and helps them recommend the best layout for travel with pets.
cpw.state.co.us/placestogo/parks/BarrLakeCan the RV be delivered to my campsite or home?
Yes, RV delivery in North Washington is one of the most popular options, especially for first time renters and families who would rather skip towing entirely. Many local hosts will deliver to nearby campgrounds like Cherry Creek State Park, Chatfield State Park, or Saint Vrain State Park, set up the RV, level it, hook up water and power, and walk you through every system before they leave. Delivery fees are set by each host and shown on the listing, and some hosts offer free delivery within a set radius. Use the Delivery filter to see who offers it. Pro tip: book delivery to a state park and your campervan rental in North Washington becomes a true zero-stress vacation, just show up with groceries.
cpw.state.co.us/placestogo/parksHow does mileage work and how far can I drive?
Mileage policies are set by each host and shown clearly on every listing before you book, so there are no surprises. Many North Washington hosts offer 100 to 150 free miles per night, and you will also find listings with RV rental with unlimited mileage, which is perfect for longer Colorado loops. Extra miles typically run $0.30 to $0.50 each if you go over. To give you a sense of range from North Washington: Rocky Mountain National Park is about 75 miles, Colorado Springs is 80 miles, Great Sand Dunes National Park is 230 miles, and Moab, Utah is around 355 miles. Pro tip: if you are planning a multi-state loop, filter for unlimited mileage first, it is almost always cheaper than paying overage.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=North%20Washington%2C%20ColoradoWhere are the best campgrounds near North Washington, CO?
You are spoiled for choice with great campgrounds near North Washington, most within an hour's drive. Cherry Creek State Park (about 20 miles south) has electric hookup sites, a reservoir, and easy Denver access. Chatfield State Park (25 miles southwest) is a local favorite for boating and biking with full hookup loops. Saint Vrain State Park (about 25 miles north) offers quiet ponds and full hookup sites. Barr Lake State Park (15 miles northeast) is great for birdwatching and is primarily day-use. For a true mountain feel, Golden Gate Canyon State Park is about an hour west. RV camping in North Washington is mostly a launch point, you will want to base out of one of these parks rather than the urban core.
cpw.state.co.us/placestogo/parksWhen is the best time of year for an RV trip from North Washington?
The sweet spot for a North Washington RV trip is mid-May through late September, when daytime highs typically sit between 70F and 90F and mountain passes are reliably open. June brings wildflowers and green foothills, July and August deliver classic Colorado sunshine (watch for afternoon thunderstorms), and September is the local favorite for golden aspens and thinner crowds. Winter RVing is doable too, many hosts offer four-season rigs with heated tanks and furnaces, perfect for ski trips to Winter Park or Keystone. Pro tip: book a late September trip and chase aspen color on the Peak to Peak Highway, it is one of the best fall drives in Colorado.
weather.gov/bou/I've never rented an RV before. What should I expect?
Renting an RV for the first time is genuinely easier than most people think, and North Washington is a great place to start because the terrain near pickup is flat and the I-25 and I-76 corridors are straightforward. Every host gives you a hands-on orientation at pickup, walking through the generator, water systems, slide-outs, leveling, hookups, and dump procedures. You can also message your host any time during your trip with questions, and RVezy support is available to help. Pro tip: ask your host for a quick parking and backing demo before you leave the lot, 10 minutes of practice in an empty space saves a lot of stress at your first campground. Most renters feel fully confident within their first day.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/categories/360003106753-RentersWhat if I break down or have a problem on the road?
You are never on your own. Every eligible booking to rent an RV in North Washington includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan, covering common needs like flat tires, battery jumps, lockouts, fuel delivery, and towing. If something feels off, call roadside first, then message your host through the RVezy app, they often know quirks of their specific rig. RVezy customer support is also available to help before, during, and after your trip. Colorado's Front Range has dense service coverage along I-25, I-70, and I-76, so help is usually not far away. Pro tip: snap photos of the RV at pickup and save the roadside number in your phone before you pull out.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take the RV across state lines or into Canada?
Yes, interstate travel is standard with RV rental Colorado, and most North Washington hosts welcome trips into Wyoming, Utah, New Mexico, Kansas, and Nebraska. Popular RV road trip from North Washington routes include Yellowstone (about 560 miles north), Moab and Arches (355 miles west), and Santa Fe (390 miles south). Cross-border travel into Canada is allowed on many listings but depends on the host and insurance coverage, so confirm by messaging before booking. Travel into Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals because protection coverage does not extend there. Pro tip: if you are eyeing a multi-state loop, mention your full itinerary in your first message to the host, it speeds approval and often unlocks a better mileage deal.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat kind of gas mileage should I expect, and what will fuel cost?
Realistic expectations help you budget smartly. Class B campervans get about 18 to 22 MPG, Class C motorhomes average 8 to 12 MPG, Class A coaches run 6 to 10 MPG, and travel trailers depend on your tow vehicle but expect a 25% to 40% MPG drop. Colorado gas prices typically sit close to the national average, with stations along I-25 and Highway 85 near North Washington usually being among the cheapest around pickup. For a 5 day trip with 600 miles of driving in a Class C, budget roughly $250 to $350 in fuel. Pro tip: fill up in Commerce City or Brighton before heading to the mountains, prices climb noticeably once you pass Idaho Springs on I-70.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book a campground?
For Colorado state parks, book as early as you can, reservations open 6 months in advance through Colorado Parks and Wildlife, and prime summer weekends at Cherry Creek, Chatfield, and Saint Vrain fill quickly after opening. National forest campgrounds in Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests book through Recreation.gov, also up to 6 months out. Private RV parks near North Washington usually have more last-minute availability, often within a week of arrival. For a family RV trip in North Washington in July or August, aim to lock in campgrounds before you book the RV itself. Pro tip: set a calendar reminder for exactly 6 months before your target Friday, that is when the best lakefront sites release at 8 a.m. Mountain Time.
cpwshop.com/What are local driving conditions like around North Washington?
Driving an RV around North Washington is refreshingly manageable, the area sits on flat plains just north of Denver with wide roads, mild grades, and good visibility. I-25, I-76, and I-270 are your main arteries, and they are all RV friendly. The trickier moments come when you head west: I-70 through the foothills climbs to the Eisenhower Tunnel at about 11,158 feet, and afternoon thunderstorms (June through August) can bring sudden hail. Winds along I-25 north of town can gust hard in spring, so plan to drive tall rigs early in the day. Where to park an RV in North Washington is easy too, many big-box lots near 104th Avenue have room. Pro tip: check CDOT's COtrip site before mountain drives for real-time pass conditions.
cotrip.org/What amenities do campgrounds near North Washington offer?
You will find a great range. Colorado state parks like Cherry Creek and Chatfield offer electric and full hookup sites (water, 30/50 amp electric, sewer at select loops), flush toilets, hot showers, and dump stations. Saint Vrain State Park has full hookup loops. Smaller national forest sites in the foothills are typically dry camping (no hookups), but they are stunning. For dump and fresh water between trips, many private parks and travel centers along I-76 and I-25 offer public dump stations for a small fee. Pro tip: ask your host if the RV has a built-in fresh water filter, North Washington's water is fine but mountain campground spigots vary, and a filter makes coffee taste noticeably better.
cpw.state.co.us/placestogo/parks/CherryCreekWhat's actually inside a typical RV rental?
More than you would expect. A typical motorhome rental in North Washington includes a full kitchen (fridge, freezer, stove, microwave, sink), a bathroom with shower and toilet, sleeping for 4 to 8 people depending on size, dinette and lounge seating with seatbelts, climate control with furnace and air conditioning, and an awning. Many listings include a TV, some include Wi-Fi options, and a lot of hosts add a generator for off-grid power. Bedding, kitchenware, and outdoor chairs are often included or available as add-ons. Pro tip: check the listing's seatbelt count if you are traveling with kids in car seats, Colorado law requires proper restraints and not every dinette converts to a seatbelted seat.
codot.gov/safety/seatbelts-carseatsWhat add-ons and options can I get with my rental?
Hosts offer a great menu of add-ons to customize your trip. Common ones in North Washington include linen and towel packs ($25 to $75), kitchen kits, camp chairs and tables, generators, bike racks, Wi-Fi hotspots, propane refills, and even paddleboards for nearby Cherry Creek Reservoir. Delivery and setup is the biggest game-changer, especially for first-timers. Pickup and dropoff times are set by the host and shown on the listing, with most allowing flexibility if you message ahead. Mileage policies are also listed upfront. Pro tip: bundle linens and a kitchen kit together, it is almost always cheaper than buying gear, and your RV rental in North Washington becomes truly turn-key the second you step inside.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=North%20Washington%2C%20ColoradoHow does payment and the security deposit work?
Payment is simple and fully handled through RVezy, no cash, no checks, no awkward exchanges with the host. You pay securely online when you book, and your card details stay protected on the platform. A security deposit is placed as a hold (not a charge) on your card before pickup and is released after the trip, typically within a few days, assuming no damage. Deposit amounts vary by RV type and value, and they are shown clearly on every listing. Pro tip: take a quick walk-around video at pickup and dropoff with the host present, it is the single best way to keep your deposit smooth and return your North Washington RV trip exactly the way it started.
