RV camping near Fruita

·

The gateway town to the rusty red mesas of the Colorado National Monument, Fruita offers RV camping on the doorstep of one of Colorado's most beautiful natural areas. Some campsites and RV parks in Fruita offer hookups, fire pits, and flush toilets just a short distance from downtown shops and restaurants, so you can experience the best of both worlds. At other RV campgrounds, you can enjoy a secluded, off-grid stay on a working farm, orchard, or vineyard. Regardless of where you park your RV or campervan, you'll find miles of mountain biking tracks and hiking trails nearby, as well as places to swim, raft, and fish. Only 20 miles from Utah, Fruita also offers RV campers the chance to venture to two national parks—Arches National Park and Canyonlands National Park—just a few hours' drive beyond the Colorado state border.

The Sites We offer three well-spaced sites, each with: Water and electricity (#1 has no water but power) Expansive views Easy access and privacy One site includes full sewer hookup A Unique Setting (Please Read) This is not a traditional campground—it’s a private, adult-oriented property (18+) that also operates as the home of The Gondola Shop, a specialized gondola restoration business. Weekdays (Mon–Fri): You may notice light activity, occasional noise, and staff moving through parts of the property. Safety & atmosphere: For this reason, the property is best suited for responsible adults seeking a quieter, more independent camping experience. No children allowed due to the working environment and equipment on site. Speed limit: 10 mph throughout the property. Groups & Gatherings We’re open to small groups (RVs, vans, roof tents, etc.) as long as you are self-contained. From May through October, when the lake is full, the property becomes an ideal setting for relaxed gatherings, BBQs, and enjoying the outdoors in a private setting. If you’re looking for a quiet, unique place with space, views, and unbeatable access to Fruita’s outdoor scene—this is a great fit. If you’re looking for a traditional, kid-friendly campground, this likely isn’t it.
