Park 64mi from Grand Junction · 572 sites
There’s a pretty solid chance that you’ve heard about Moab, one of Utah’s most happening recreation spots. This gorgeous place gets packed, so do your homework beforehand so you know where to go! The Moab Field Office, administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), takes up 1.8 million acres of gorgeous canyon-riddled lands. Spend your days hunting for natural arches and bridges, exploring mesas, and contemplating how the heck rocks can look so crazy. BLM lands are also fantastic base camps for forays into nearby Arches National Park and Canyonlands National Park. There are 26 campgrounds, and you can usually find something even on the busiest of weekends (but, if you can swing it, it’s always best to arrive early). River recreation on the Colorado and Green Rivers is another major draw. However you spend your time in Moab, you’ll fall in love with the impressive red rock formations, the deep canyons, and surprising amount of plant life.

Stay somewhere truly different. Our property blends a private, working environment with wide-open space and a beautiful 1-acre lake (seasonal, summer access)—creating a peaceful, one-of-a-kind camping experience just minutes from town.
Each campsite sits on our 10-acre property, giving you your own space and privacy while still enjoying easy access to everything the area has to offer. You’ll be surrounded by some of the best outdoor recreation in Colorado—mountain biking, road cycling, hiking, rafting, fishing, off-roading, and more—all right outside your door. The Colorado National Monument is just a short drive away.
Despite the quiet setting, you’re only 2 minutes from Fruita, where you’ll find great restaurants, coffee shops, groceries, gas, and everything you need for a comfortable stay.
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.

This is our 2nd time at this campsite and it was even more amazing this time around! Clean, spacious and a lot of exploring to do. Mike makes sure every site is in great condition and has firewood available. The lake is so pretty - we loved just sitting around watching the sunset. Our pups were in heaven! Mike and Stephanie came over to say hello and we had a great chat. This is the perfect campsite when you want to get away, have a spacious site and still be close to fun action in Palisade/GJ area. We will be back!

Very nice for an RV park! I typically try to avoid these RV parks, but this one is really nice. Not super big. Lots of space between the campers. A special area for vans. The shower and bathroom house is super nice. Great location. Palisade is just gorgeous. Lots to do in the area. There is some train noise, but I did not notice that at night.

Such a beautiful area to camp, and the various amenities located around the campgrounds was very nice! We didn't get a chance to get on the water due to high winds, but we'll be back in the summer to test the waters! The firewood at our site was an added bonus, and the proximity to shops, vineyards, anything else we might need was a plus. Thank you for letting us use your space!

I was excited to stay here just from the photos and the description…. Then we pulled up.
It was private, boutique, and romantic. I see why it doubles as a wedding venue.
We were only able to stay one night but it was enough to get us hooked. The host and hostess were communicative, thoughtful and had outfitted the whole property perfectly. It hardly felt like camping. We lucked out and had the whole place to ourselves- the bistro lights, nearby orchards and proximity to town made it easy to unwind after traveling.
We can’t wait to stay again- for a couple of nights.

It’s pretty rough and rustic, but it’s quite pleasant when you park your rig right on the shore of the lake and focus your views that way. I enjoyed walking around and exploring the property. They’re actually four or five lakes in the vicinity. I’m used to amazing views so I did not find the the views as spectacular as some other others said, but the sunrise and sunsets are very, very pretty and very worthwhile. Peacock’s next-door, which is really fun, also heard sandhill cranes, plus of course, tons of other birds.
My cat had a fabulous time exploring everything.
It was a super convenient location to visit with friends in various parts of Palisade and Grand Junction. The host is super chill, appreciated.Would definitely stay there again.
