Awesome view with all the amenities needed. Great place to stay.

@SamanthaB42924 · Camped on Nov 3, 2024 at Campsite #38

We LOVED this campground. Beautiful campsites that, although close together, felt more private because of the trees. Beautiful scenery inside an AMAZING park. We truly loved it and will absolutely be back.

Beautiful campground in awesome location! Bathrooms are very clean. Campsites parking not entirely flat, tent pads just recently improved. Shady Junipers. I wish the C loop was open year round as these sites are more secluded and rather spacious. Nice hiking trails all over. Wildlife, rams, deer middle in the road, watch your speed! This is a beautiful place for photography, long walks, star gazing! Amazing view of the night sky! Can't wait to go back, any season.

Park is very nice. I stayed in October and thankfully the water and toilets were still working. Some sites are slightly not level, but not too bad. Great views! Very close to Grand Junction if you need to run into town for something or grab a bite.

@BarryRE2C112EF · Camped on Oct 21, 2024 at Campsite #32

Very nice campground with amazing views of the surrounding canyons. Clean restrooms!

Beautiful campground. Campground host (Sky his wife) were so friendly and helpful. Bathrooms were immaculate. Sites are clean, well-maintained with amazing views.

Saddlehorn Campground at Colorado National Monument is an absolute gem! The campsites are incredibly well-maintained and thoughtfully spaced apart, giving you privacy and a peaceful atmosphere. The bathrooms are spotless, which is a huge plus when camping. I stayed at Lot 47B, and I have to say, it offers the best view of Fruita Canyonyou wake up to stunning scenery right outside your tent. The entire campground is quiet and serene, making it perfect for a relaxing outdoor escape. If you're camping anywhere near the area, this spot is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

@Alejandro55E5F · Camped on Oct 14, 2024 at Campsite #44

Great place along I-70 for a couple of days hiking and biking. Clean and well maintained facilities and infrastructure.

@JuliannB501BF4 · Camped on Oct 11, 2024 at Campsite #31

Beautiful views, clean bathrooms, friendly attendants = Fabulous!

@JamesM9879118 · Camped on Oct 10, 2024 at Campsite #10

Beautiful campground in an incredible setting. Camp sites are nicely spaced with lots of trees providing privacy. Restrooms were very clean, well maintained and stocked, they appear to have been renovated recently.Nearby NPS visitor center was one of the very best I have visited . The educational and information displays are top notch.Camp hosts were wonderful, very approachable, friendly and helpful.A wonderful place to camp and enjoy an equally incredible Park!

@DanielR3951934 · Camped on Oct 10, 2024 at Campsite #38

I arrived after dark and found someone else camped in my reserved site. They weren't present. The camp hosts was off duty and the park visitor center was closed for the day. My recreation.gov email suggested I could change sites after arrival, but all sites were x'ed out when I tried to modify my reservation despite several sites showing available on a new reservation search. This campground offered a better user experience when actual "open" or "reserved" signs were posted on each campsite, with name and dates as appropriate, instead of a generic "go online to check availability or reserve" on every site. Not everyone will be able or choose to check online before just setting up in a nice, apparently unoccupied site.

@NatalieE409697 · Camped on Oct 10, 2024 at Campsite #33

Campground is great, but the site we slept at (33b) had a power pole next to the tent pad. We could hear and feel the electricity surging all night long. I would not recommend using this as an active site for users. First it seems very dangerous to sleep under the power pole, second the fact that we can feel the electricty is unerving.

@DaleD6006260 · Camped on Oct 9, 2024 at Campsite #47

Love it here!!

@ElyseWE0E84679 · Camped on Oct 8, 2024 at Campsite #42

We loved staying at the Saddlehorn CG. The area is stunning, bathrooms clean, and fairly convenient to get to town. Neither of us had ever stayed at Colorado National Monument before, but we certainly would like to do it again.

@JohnY5833920 · Camped on Oct 4, 2024 at Campsite #12

Very nice and clean campground. Looks like they are upgrading camp sites and adding tent/table pads. Bathrooms were spotless.

@DorianO8485514 · Camped on Oct 3, 2024 at Campsite #77

We really enjoy this campground, especially C loop when it's available.

@VirginiaD77805 · Camped on Oct 3, 2024 at Campsite #76

Stayed at Campsite 76C from 10/3-10/5 and it was great! EZ-up or a canopy is definitely needed during the peak heat of the day, or you can go cool off down by the Colorado River. This specific spot was awesome, not a ton of people throughout the day, but the campsites around filled up towards the end of the day. Right next to the water fill-up station, and a short walk from the bathrooms.

@DonG3842679 · Camped on Oct 3, 2024 at Campsite #22

This is a beautiful campground, the spaces are a bit close together but all in all a nice stop over. I wish I would have had the time to explore the area more.

@WeldonSA182310 · Camped on Oct 1, 2024 at Campsite #50

Nice clean campground and restrooms. Needs a more obvious sign at the entrance.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
