I rated this park so low for one reason only and that is the ROAD NOISE. This was literally (no embellishment)the loudest place we ever camped at. All other aspects of this park I would rate a very excellent 9-10. First and foremost is it is located right along side of Interstate 70. Sites 64-74 are no more that 5-15 YARDS from the Interstate itself. The site we stayed in(#78)was about 40 yards from the interstate. The vehicle traffic, in particular the heavy semi-truck traffic, was so loud (24-7)you literally could not carry on a conversation while outside. Having a hard sided trailer brought no relief. It was impossible for us to sleep. We tried fans, and music to no avail. We even checked out the road noise from the farthest campsites 55-60 (located along the Colorado River) and it was still very loud. The sites along the river had to also deal with train traffic as the tracks run on the opposite side of the river. The campground is located in a canyon and the road noise reverberates off of the walls. What is an absolute shame is the fact that this campground is very well maintained, the campsites are laid out and maintained in excellent fashion. The sites along the river are some of the best around. The scenic beauty was incredible(again except for the incredible proximity of I-70.) I spoke with the park personnel about why the campground was located so close to I-70 since they are well aware of the terrible road noise. All they could say is that it has been there a long time and it didn't use to be this way. It is apparent a lot of the truck traffic is associated with all the natural gas drilling now taking place all the way to Parachute, CO and of course the always present interstate trucking. Anyway, we tried to switch to the Fruita section (17 miles away) with no luck. Too bad, since it is another very nice campground and located sufficiently away from I-70. Bottom line, our three day visit was an incredible disappointment and next time we visit in this beautiful area we will stay in the Fruita section. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a really nice park, with huge RV sites. We camped in Section C and could see the river from our site. Only reason this is not a 9 or 10 is the noise. Park is right next to I-70 and across river from train tracks. RR was not too bad, but freeway was very noisy. Also, no cell phone reception because of hills. BUT, a really nice park! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Best parts of this campground: Large level sites with decent privacy, shade, and mountain views. Worst points: highway noise, and no view of Colorado river from any of the campsites. We would, however, stay here again. We camped here with one other family and stayed across a large groomed yard from each other, making it feel like we had private space to ourselves. Be aware that the full hook-up sights in general have less shade (or none). The electric only sights were better established with trees, grass, etc. The main bathroom and showers were much cleaner than most campgrounds I have stayed in. We thought at first the highway noise would be bad, but it became background "white" noise after only a few minutes. The kids caught 12 fish during their one evening of fishing from the ponds at the campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
