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.

We car-and-tent camped so we could hike in the canyons and enjoy garden-and-farm-to-table meals from our Coleman stove. It was wonderful! The campground has sun and shade and tables and what a view! The rest room and dishwashing areas were clean, convenient and well maintained. The Visitor Center, rim drive and Monument/Wedding hike are not to be missed. We hiked around Fruita and picnicked in the state park there on the way home.
We were surprised to see several open fires on Saturday night after the star talk when there was a stage 2 fire ban. And of course, it only takes one inebriated person with a loud voice after quiet hours to spoil the night in a tent 15 ft away.

Epic campground with amazing views. Got to see bighorn sheep on the road up. Pricing it deceiving because the campground is inside Colorado national monument. You have to pay $20 to get into the park as well as your campsite fee. Worth it nonetheless. Cleanest bathrooms I have ever seen by the way. I could eat off the floors.

The camp site did not have a level spot. Seems like our site and some others we noticed really need some attention. We’ll be back, but it wasn’t great.

Great views, courteous people in the Saddleback Campground, wonderful time while the oncoming lightning storm moved in from the west.

Loved the campground. Unfortunately we didn’t get to spend the night there. We were truck camping and with the storms we were afraid to stay there so we ended up at a hotel. Location is awesome and our site was great for privacy.
