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.

Number of accommodations: 79

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.

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 Canyon—you 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!

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!
