Campgrounds near Redlands, Colorado
Redlands sits on the western edge of Grand Junction, at the base of Colorado National Monument and within reach of the Colorado and Gunnison rivers. RV travelers use it as a base for the Monument's Rim Rock Drive, the Grand Mesa, and the wineries and orchards around Palisade. Interstate 70, US-50, and US-6 converge in the Grand Valley, so access from the Front Range, Utah, and the Four Corners is straightforward.
Lodging options split between full-hookup private parks in the valley and one dry-camping national park campground on the plateau above town. Junction West Grand Junction RV Park, Canyon View RV Resort, Monument RV Resort, and Mobile City RV Park cover the paved-pad, full-hookup segment. Saddlehorn Campground, inside Colorado National Monument, is the only established campground within the park boundary and has no hookups.
Elevations in the valley run near 4,600 feet, while Saddlehorn sits above 5,700 feet, which affects overnight temperatures and shoulder-season conditions.
Things to do near Redlands
Colorado National Monument draws motor tours on Historic Rim Rock Drive, hikers on maintained trails, climbers on sandstone towers, and wildlife watchers looking for desert bighorn sheep and golden eagles. Short walks from Saddlehorn Campground reach Window Rock, Canyon Rim, and Alcove Nature trails, all under a mile round trip.
Off the plateau, the Colorado Riverfront Trail links Redlands to downtown Grand Junction along the river. James M. Robb Colorado River State Park has day-use swim ponds and boat access. Palisade, about twenty miles east, is the center of the state's peach and wine country, with tasting rooms clustered along East Orchard Mesa.
Grand Mesa National Forest, roughly an hour east, adds high-elevation lakes, cooler summer temperatures, and fall aspen color for day trips or overnight side excursions.

The Grand Valley has a cold semi-arid climate with hot summers, cold winters that bring regular snowfall, and a very large seasonal temperature contrast. Spring and fall are the most comfortable windows for RV travel. April and May bring warming days, wildflowers on the Monument, and manageable overnight lows at valley elevation. September and October pair mild afternoons with harvest season in Palisade and aspen color on Grand Mesa.
Summer runs hot in the valley, with July averaging a mean temperature near 78 degrees and roughly 68 days a year reaching 90 or above. Afternoon thunderstorms are possible from mid-July through August during the North American monsoon, and the exposed rim country can feel punishing in midday sun.
Winter cools sharply. Snow is greatest in December and January, and higher-elevation loops at Saddlehorn close. From late October to late March, Loops A and C are closed for the season, leaving only Loop B available inside the park.

This camper was awesome just what we were looking for . The space was nice for only three people but a good amount of room to visit with friends and get out of the rain. The best part was Jessica delivered the camper exactly where we wanted. Jessica and Mike are very nice people to work with and will use them again if they will have us. Thank you.
LaDonna L. - Jul 2026
Excellent RV hosts. Provided excellent communication and also explained the operating of the RV in detail. Would definitely use them again. Thanks Mike!

How to book a campsite near Redlands
Saddlehorn Campground is reserved through Recreation.gov. All campsites, including same-day sites, are reservable during three windows: six months in advance, two weeks in advance, and on the same day. Same-day sites are released at 8 a.m. Mountain Time daily on Recreation.gov. For visitors without an internet connection, reservations may be secured by calling 877-444-6777. A separate park entrance fee applies in addition to the camping fee.
Private parks in the valley, including Junction West Grand Junction RV Park, Canyon View RV Resort, Monument RV Resort, and Mobile City RV Park, take reservations directly through their own websites or by phone. Book several weeks ahead for summer weekends, Palisade harvest weekends in late August and September, and dates tied to Grand Junction race and rally events.
What to expect at campgrounds near Redlands
Valley campgrounds cater to larger rigs with paved or gravel pull-through sites, full hookups, laundry, and Wi-Fi. Terrain is flat, sites are close together, and shade varies. Expect summer heat on the pads and irrigation-fed grass rather than forest cover.
Saddlehorn is a different experience. Sites have no electricity, water, or sewer hookups, and there is no dump station or shower building on site. Flush toilets and drinking water are available in the campground, and the nearest dump station is at the Colorado Welcome Center in Fruita. Year-round fire restrictions prohibit all wood-burning fires; charcoal and gas grills are permitted in designated areas.
Maximum tunnel height on Rim Rock Drive is 16 feet at the center line, which matters for tall rigs approaching from either park entrance.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Redlands, CO
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Redlands, CO?
Good news: an RV rental in Redlands is one of the more affordable ways to explore Colorado's Western Slope. On RVezy, motorhomes near Redlands average around $200 per night and travel trailers run closer to $120 per night, with most hosts offering 10-20% discounts on weekly and monthly bookings. Shoulder seasons (April-May and September-October) deliver the best weather-to-price ratio because peak demand around Country Jam in June and the Palisade peach harvest in August pushes prices up. Pro tip: filter for a travel trailer and add delivery to skip a tow vehicle entirely. That combo often makes a Redlands RV trip cheaper than a hotel plus rental car, especially for families of four or more.
visitgrandjunction.com/places-to-stay/rv-parksrentals-campgrounds/What license do I need to rent an RV in Redlands, Colorado?
Great news: your regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Redlands. Colorado does not require a commercial driver's license (CDL) or special endorsement for personal-use motorhomes or travel trailers under 26,000 pounds, which covers essentially every rig on RVezy. You'll need to be 25 or older and complete a quick ID verification on the RVezy platform when you book. Visiting from abroad? Bring your home-country license plus an International Driving Permit and you're set. Most first-time renters are surprised how simple the paperwork is, leaving you free to focus on planning your route through Colorado National Monument.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsIs insurance and roadside assistance included with my Redlands RV rental?
Yes, and this is one of the best reasons to book an RV rental in Redlands through RVezy. Every booking includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, covering things like flat tires, lockouts, battery jumps, and tow service, along with coverage for most damage to the RV during your trip. You choose the level of protection at checkout (not the host), so you can match coverage to your comfort level. That peace of mind matters on Rim Rock Drive's switchbacks through Colorado National Monument, where the views are unreal but the road demands your full attention.
rvezy.com/insurance-and-protectionWhat happens if I need to cancel my Redlands RV trip?
You can book with confidence. RVezy (not the individual host) sets all cancellation policies, and every booking includes a money-back grace period right after booking so you have breathing room if plans change. Refund eligibility after that window depends on how far out you are from your trip start date. If a host cancels on you, RVezy refunds you in full or offers travel credit so your Redlands RV trip stays on track. Customer support is available before, during, and after every trip, so locking in your dates early to snag the best rigs is genuinely low-risk.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a pet-friendly RV rental in Redlands?
Absolutely. Pet-friendly RV rental Redlands options are plentiful on RVezy, just flip the Pet-Friendly filter when you search and you'll see every host who welcomes furry co-pilots. Once you've landed in Redlands, your dog has serious options: the Redlands Parkway riverfront trail along the Colorado River is leashed-dog heaven, Connected Lakes (part of James M. Robb State Park) allows leashed pets on its paved loops, and the Lunch Loops trailhead just minutes from Redlands has dog-friendly singletrack. One important note: dogs are not allowed on trails inside Colorado National Monument, only in campgrounds and pullouts, so plan hikes accordingly. Bring a collapsible water bowl, the high desert dehydrates pups fast.
cpw.state.co.us/placestogo/parks/JamesMRobb-ColoradoRiverCan the RV be delivered to my campsite in Redlands?
Yes, and RV delivery Redlands is the secret weapon of stress-free first-time renters. Many hosts will tow or drive the rig directly to your campsite, vacation rental driveway, or trailhead, level it, hook up water and power, dump the tanks at the end, and walk you through every system before they leave. Popular delivery destinations from Redlands include Saddlehorn Campground inside Colorado National Monument, Highline Lake State Park (about 25 miles north), and Connected Lakes just down the road. Delivery fees are set by each host and scale with distance, so message a few hosts through the listing page to compare. For travel trailers especially, this turns your trip into a true plug-and-play vacation.
nps.gov/colm/planyourvisit/camping.htmHow far can I drive on a Redlands RV trip, and how do mileage policies work?
You've got plenty of road to explore. Hosts set their own mileage policies on RVezy, and many offer generous daily allowances or even RV rental with unlimited mileage for longer bookings, which is ideal because the best stuff is spread out. From Redlands you're 12 miles to Colorado National Monument's west entrance, 50 miles to the top of Grand Mesa, 60 miles to Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, 100 miles to Moab and Arches National Park in Utah, and about 240 miles to Telluride. Check each listing's mileage details before booking, and if you're planning a big loop, filter for unlimited-mileage rigs or message the host to negotiate extra miles upfront.
nps.gov/blca/planyourvisit/directions.htmWhere are the best campgrounds near Redlands, CO?
You're spoiled for choice. The closest full-service options for RV camping Redlands include Monument RV Resort (directly across from James M. Robb State Park with Colorado River access), RV Ranch at Grand Junction, Junction West Grand Junction RV Park, and Grand Junction KOA on Highway 50, which sits about five minutes from Colorado National Monument's east entrance. For a more scenic stay, book Saddlehorn Campground inside the monument itself, perched on a mesa with red-rock views (79 sites, no hookups, reservable via Recreation.gov). Highline Lake State Park, about 25 miles northwest, offers full hookups and is an Audubon-designated bird area. Book monument and state-park sites six months out for summer weekends.
cpw.state.co.us/placestogo/parks/HighlineLakeWhen is the best time to take an RV trip from Redlands?
April through early June and September through October are the sweet spot for a Redlands RV trip. Daytime highs sit in the comfortable 65-80°F range, nights cool nicely for sleeping, and the red rock of Colorado National Monument practically glows at golden hour. Summer (June-August) gets hot in the Grand Valley, with highs regularly hitting 95-100°F, but it's prime time for Grand Mesa, which stays 20-25 degrees cooler at 10,000+ feet. Winters are surprisingly mild at Redlands' elevation (about 4,600 ft), with daytime highs often in the 40s and minimal snow, making it a quietly great shoulder-shoulder season. Pro tip: time your trip to mid-September for the Palisade wine harvest and zero crowds.
weather.gov/gjt/I've never driven an RV before. Is Redlands a good place to start?
Redlands is actually one of the friendlier places in Colorado for a first time renting an RV. Streets in the Redlands neighborhood are wide and flat, traffic on Broadway and Redlands Parkway is light compared to Denver or the I-70 mountain corridor, and you have easy interstate access without needing to climb any passes to reach great camping. Every RVezy host walks you through the rig at pickup, covering propane, water systems, slide-outs, tank dumping, and driving tips, and they stay reachable by message during your trip. Choose a smaller Class C motorhome or a campervan rental Redlands listing for your first outing, take Rim Rock Drive slowly, and avoid the two tunnels with rigs over 11'4" tall.
nps.gov/colm/planyourvisit/driving-rim-rock-drive.htmWhat happens if something goes wrong with the RV during my trip?
You're never on your own. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan, covering common issues like flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, and tow service. Your host is your first call for anything specific to the rig (think: how do I relight the water heater), and most Redlands hosts respond within minutes. RVezy customer support handles bigger issues. If you break down inside Colorado National Monument, rangers patrol Rim Rock Drive regularly; cell service is spotty but workable at the overlooks. Snap a photo of your host's contact info at pickup so it's always one tap away.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat are the best road trip routes from Redlands?
An RV road trip from Redlands is a Western Slope dream because you're at the crossroads of three iconic loops. Head west on I-70 about 110 miles to Moab, Utah, for Arches and Canyonlands National Parks. Drive south on US-50 about 60 miles to Black Canyon of the Gunnison, then continue on the San Juan Skyway through Ouray, Silverton, and Telluride for jaw-dropping mountain scenery. Or head northeast about 160 miles to Steamboat Springs via scenic Colorado byways. Cross-border travel into Utah is fully allowed on RVezy rentals; travel into Mexico is not permitted. Pro tip: the Unaweep-Tabeguache Scenic Byway south of Redlands is a stunning, low-traffic alternative for a slower-paced loop.
codot.gov/travel/scenic-bywaysWhat kind of fuel mileage should I expect, and how much will gas cost?
Plan your budget around these realistic numbers: Class A motorhomes get 7-10 MPG, Class C motorhomes average 10-14 MPG, campervans (Class B) deliver 16-20 MPG, and travel trailers depend on your tow vehicle but typically knock 3-5 MPG off whatever your truck normally gets. Colorado gas prices tend to run slightly above the national average, and Grand Junction (right next to Redlands) usually has the cheapest fuel on the Western Slope, with Costco on Rimrock Avenue typically beating posted prices by 20-40 cents per gallon. Fill up in Grand Junction before heading to Moab, Telluride, or Grand Mesa, where prices jump significantly. A 500-mile loop in a Class C will run roughly $150-$220 in fuel.
energy.colorado.gov/transportation/fuelsHow far in advance should I book a campground near Redlands?
Lock in summer campsites the moment the window opens. Saddlehorn Campground inside Colorado National Monument and Highline Lake State Park both take reservations six months in advance through Recreation.gov and the Colorado Parks and Wildlife reservation system respectively, and weekends from Memorial Day through Labor Day sell out within hours of release. Private parks like Monument RV Resort and Grand Junction KOA fill up 4-8 weeks ahead in peak season. Off-season (November through March) you can often roll in the same day, especially at Saddlehorn's A Loop, which stays open year-round on a first-come basis. Pro tip: set a calendar reminder for the six-months-ahead date and book at 8 a.m. Mountain time when the slots drop.
recreation.gov/camping/campgrounds/234064What are the local driving conditions like around Redlands?
Redlands is an easy launchpad: the neighborhood sits on a flat bench between the Colorado River and the base of Colorado National Monument, so streets are wide and gradients are gentle. The main thing to know is Rim Rock Drive, the 23-mile scenic road through the monument, which has two tunnels with an 11'4" height clearance and tight switchbacks, fine for most Class C motorhomes and campervans but a no-go for taller Class A rigs and most fifth wheels. I-70 east toward Glenwood Springs climbs steadily and can see sudden snow squalls October through April; check CDOT's COtrip.org before you leave. Summer afternoon thunderstorms roll through fast, so park and wait them out rather than driving through high winds.
codot.gov/travelWhat amenities can I expect at campgrounds near Redlands?
You'll find a full range, from luxury resort to rugged. Full-hookup parks like Monument RV Resort, Junction West, and Grand Junction KOA offer 30/50-amp power, water, sewer, Wi-Fi, laundry, hot showers, pools, and propane refills on-site. State park campgrounds at Highline Lake and James M. Robb-Colorado River State Park provide electric and water hookups, a central dump station, and potable water spigots open year-round. Saddlehorn Campground in Colorado National Monument is the most primitive option, no hookups, but with flush toilets, drinking water, picnic tables, and charcoal grills (wood fires are not permitted). Free dump stations exist at the Colorado Welcome Center off I-70 Exit 19 in Fruita, perfect for boondockers passing through.
cpw.state.co.us/placestogo/parks/JamesMRobb-ColoradoRiverWhat's inside the RVs available for rent in Redlands?
More creature comforts than you'd expect. A typical motorhome rental Redlands listing on RVezy comes with a queen or king bed, additional convertible sleeping for 4-6 people, a kitchen with a propane stove, fridge/freezer, microwave, sink, and full cookware, plus a wet bath or full bathroom with shower and toilet. Air conditioning, propane furnace, hot water heater, and a house battery system are standard. Many hosts include a TV, Bluetooth stereo, outdoor awning, camp chairs, and outdoor mats; some offer Wi-Fi hotspots, solar packages, or onboard generators (useful for boondocking on BLM land south of Redlands). Every passenger seat used while driving has a seatbelt. Check the listing's amenities list and message the host if you need something specific.
blm.gov/visit/grand-junction-field-officeWhat add-ons and pickup options are available?
Hosts customize the experience to match your trip. Popular add-ons for an RV rental in Redlands include bedding and linen packages ($25-$75), kitchen kits, camp chairs and tables, generators, propane refills, bikes (handy for Lunch Loops or the Riverfront Trail), and adventure gear like kayaks or paddleboards for Connected Lakes. Pickup is usually at the host's home in Redlands or Grand Junction, but delivery to Saddlehorn Campground, Highline Lake, or your vacation rental is widely available for a flat fee that scales with distance. Mileage policies vary, so review the listing details. Tip: bundle delivery, setup, dump, and linens into one package, you'll pay slightly more but eliminate every logistical hassle.
gjcity.org/visitors/How does payment and the security deposit work?
Payment is simple and secure: you pay through RVezy's platform at booking with a credit or debit card, and funds are processed according to RVezy's payment terms, which protects both you and the host. A separate refundable security deposit is authorized (not charged) at the start of your trip and released back to you a few days after a successful return, assuming no damage, mileage overages, or missing items. To avoid surprises, walk the rig with the host at pickup and dropoff, take date-stamped photos of the exterior, interior, and tank levels, and refuel and dump tanks before return if your agreement requires it. Keep all communication inside the RVezy app for a clean record.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksCan I rent an RV in Redlands during winter, and are the rigs ready for cold weather?
Yes, winter is a quietly fantastic time for a Redlands RV trip. The Grand Valley sits at about 4,600 feet with mild winters (daytime highs often in the 40s and limited snow at valley elevations), so the valley floor stays drivable most of the season, and Saddlehorn Campground's Loop A in Colorado National Monument is open year-round with stunning, crowd-free red rock views. Many hosts list four-season rigs equipped with heated holding tanks, enclosed underbellies, propane furnaces, and 30-amp shore power capability. If you're heading up to Grand Mesa or Powderhorn ski area, message the host first to confirm winter readiness, tires, and chains. Bonus: winter rental rates often drop noticeably versus peak summer pricing.
