    pros: nicest campground bathrooms I've ever seen, free showers, nice tent sites right on the colorado river, super nice owners cons: have to climb a steep hill to the bathrooms from the river front sites (worth it for the view though)

Their rates very depending where you stay on the grounds. I paid more for a river view site and no shade . What a waste could not see the river . Stayed there for 3 days and then changed to a center row # 37 so I could use my trailer for a shade spot. Basically a treeless park. The other major thing that always is an outlier for some parks is what they charge for ICE. $4.00 a bag! Drive to town 2 miles away and get 2x as much ice for 1/2 the price. Rest rooms and showers where nice. Staff was great.The only reason I would stay here again is the location for things we like to do...hike and explore the area. Grand Junction is close by for any big needs,There is a nice view of the Mesa and the sunsets can be impressive.If train noise bothers you(we were ok with them) than don't stay here ( 1/2 dozen day and night).Good winery's all over the area. If you come in August the peaches are the best.

The sites are too narrow and no grass--it was all died! The mighty Colorado River is adjacent to the property and several families took advantage of the easy access a mile down the road.The facilities are good--laundry, swimming pool, covered patio, and showers/bathrooms. The sites have full hook-ups (20/30/50A, sewer, and water) and in good shape. They run sprinklers twice a day which soaks all outdoors furniture and is a pain. The dog run and garbage is inconvenient for most. The staff were friendly, but not very helpful.

It is scenic with views, which I really appreciate and am willing to pay more for. The office staff are very nice and the facilities are nicely kept. Except the laundry was dirty - the table and washers and dryers were gross. The train is close and loud! The sprinklers hit our trailer and truck every night making noise and a mess. We awoke to fresh puddles under our door and truck each day and we have mineral deposits on one side of our rig. We weren’t allowed a small doormat under our steps. I’d stay here again if needed, but for a much shorter duration.

We stayed here last minute because temps dropped too low at the place we intended to stay. Delightfully surprised to find this awesome RV park and campground. Our kids did their homeschooling down by the river. Great cell signal for those working remotely and a quick drive into the quaint town of Palisade for supplies. The town of Palisade is also great with funky restaurants if that’s your thing. Overall we pinned this place as one we want to return to in the future. The sites in the interior are pretty close together but the views of the surround canyon plateaus on all sides more than made up for it. Great for a couple nights, probably wouldn’t stay for much longer than that though.

We booked two nights while we were in the area. First night we had to close up the trailer due to the smell of marijuana. This continued through the night and into the next morning. The smell made it's way into the A/C as well and made for a terrible experience. We left forfeiting our second night. I'm not sure if the owners allow cannabis use in the park or not. The park itself was well maintained and restrooms were very clean and the check in process was easy. Unfortunately we wont be back.

Facility has a family friendly pool, Group BBQ area, nice laundry room and the nicest/cleanest bathroom/shower facilities that I have seen in an RV park. There is also a lower area that caters to tent campers....nice to wander down there since it is close to the Colorado river. There is a train that goes by, but not too often and there is no whistle.Palisade area has a lot to offer with the cute restaurants in town, wineries and fresh fruit. I wish we were there for the fresh peaches that coming into season...maybe another trip!

Everything in the resort is very nicely done and well kept. The pool is also heated and the cleanest we have seen. They also have a great sandpit playground with a large covered pavilion. We did not use the shower house but my wife went inside to check it out and she said it was really nice with granite countertops. The owners are also very friendly and were super helpful in providing ideas of what to do with our kids in Palisade and places to check out. We wish we had more time in Palisade as it is an amazing area and will be staying here again when we return. The only item I wished they had were fire pits but you can bring your own free-standing fire pit and still have fires.

    We spent one night on our way to Boulder. After 2 nights Boondocking, the clean showers were just what we needed. The River Bottom spots for tents and vans are by far the nicest in the resort with tree cover and close proximity to the Colorado River. Only downside Are the trains that run close to the resort a couple to times a night.

Sites do face easterly to provide shade on the door side. Public restrooms/showers were very clean. Pool was a big bonus since we were there in August. There are no fire rings, and maybe that contributed to how quiet it was a night.Plenty of room for all size of rigs, especially the large rigs. We picked this spot because we were attending the Palisade Peach Fest. A shuttle provided us with transportation to the fest. No need to drive. If you want to experience Palisade and the western slope of Colorado, this would make for a great base camp.
