3 acres hosted by Janine D.

1 RV/tent site

Full RV hookups

Electrical, water, and sewage hookups are available at all sites.

Enjoy views of the Royal Gorge Bridge from this 3 acre property that is also close to plenty of outdoor adventures such as white water rafting, zip lining, mountain biking, hiking, jeep tours, and more. This land has 360 degree views so you can enjoy the sunrise or sunset - whichever you fancy! Please no parties. Follow local fire ban ordinances. Smokers must dispose of cigarettes immediately after smoking - no butts on the ground please.Park your home-on-wheels or pitch your tent and make yourself at home. Kick back and take in the views of the Royal Gorge, Wet Mountains and the Sangre de Cristo mountain range from our high-desert property with 360 degree views. Most of the property is high desert grasses, pinion and juniper pines, but be on the lookout for cactus as well. Access includes full hook ups (electric, water, sewage) with amenities such as WIFI, propane grill, patio with tables and seating, and a fire circle (fires allowed only per local ordinance). The Royal Gorge Trail system is right up the road and can be biked to straight from the property. Or drive up and park at the available trailheads. During summer months there are restaurants, rafting outfitters, zip line tours and more accessible just minutes outside your door. The Royal Gorge Bridge, Dinosaur Museum, Rock Shop and multiple souvenir shops are open year round. Please note that this is a very peaceful site in the mornings and evenings, but it is about 200 yards from the county road so you can hear the passing of vehicles during tourist hours. There is a KOA campground (you can shower here for $8/person) across the street and use some of their other facilities for a small fee (playground, pool, large blue slide). The site is less than 10 mins away from Royal Gorge Bridge Park. Downtown Canon City is less than 15 mins away.

Royal Gorge Private Camp

Great stars + close to Royal Gorge!

I needed a spot to sleep in my van the night before running Rim to Rim at the legendary Royal Gorge (which was just a few minutes away)! I felt like I slept at the starting line! Incredible spot with the best star viewing you can get this close to civilization! Thank you for offering up such a beautiful slice of land and hosting on HipCamp!

We loved this spot, we have a travel trailer, it was perfect, has great hookups, it is quiet, has great views, is close to activities, etc. The owners are super nice, we will be back as soon as possible. Highly recommend!

Royal Gorge Private Camp

Fantastic location!

The location is perfect if you want a private place close to attractions, amenities, and downtown. This site is excellent for RV/Camper/Tent, and our family tent camp on this site. The views are amazing, and we were spoiled that we had electricity, water, a very clean porta potty, and a dumpster on site. It is about 200 meters from the main road, so you can hear the passing of vehicles, and the KOA campground (you can shower here for $8/person) is across the street, where you can hear some camper's noise background but after 10 pm, it is quiet. It didn't bother us. The site is less <10 mins away from Royal Gorge Bridge Park. Downtown Canon City is <15 mins away. We took our daughter to Centennial Splash water park, and it's perfect if you have kiddies. Justine and her husband checked in on us the first day; they are super friendly! We highly recommend this camp location, and we will surely come back again and camp here in the future!
