About Saddlehorn Campground

Saddlehorn Campground is located within Colorado National Monument which preserves one of the grand landscapes of the American West. Much more than a monument, towering monoliths exist within a vast plateau and canyon panorama. You can experience sheer-walled, red rock canyons along the twists and turns of Rim Rock Drive, where you may spy bighorn sheep and soaring eagles.

Beautiful views, quiet and clean site. Great stop on the way from Denver into Utah!

Nice campground, sensational views, flushies! Campsites are almost all heavily sloped, but there are plenty of flattish rocks around. Standard NPS/USFS picnic tables and grills, although the locations are a bit erratic and difficult to use logically. Did I mention that the views are incredible. You overlook the Grand Junction/Fruita valley, with the Book Cliffs on the other side.
One note - there is a $25 driving pass in addition to the campsite fee. This makes it a little less affordable than it used to be (especially for seniors), but the view is still worth it.

This site is a pull off site, so you are parallel to the road. There is a slope down to the picnic table and grill. The restroom is not a far walk. This campground is conveniently located to the visitor center, several trails, and is a good home base for exploring the area.

The location was ideal for taking off early in the morning or evening for sunrise/sunset shots. My campsite had a little shade and privacy. #9 is a good site.

The campsites were well maintained and the camp host was friendly. The sites were very close together, but it wasn’t busy when we were there so we felt we had plenty of privacy. The bathrooms were clean and didn’t smell. Gorgeous drive up, just be careful of bighorn sheep on the road!
