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

Camped in November, had fantastic weather, no crowds, didn’t need a reservation even though only the B loop is open. The sites aren’t very level in this part of the campground. Restrooms are open, heated & running water. Very good cell reception.

We absolutely loved the park. The views from atop the mesa were wonderful. The hikes we took were great and the ranger who led us in a dark sky viewing event was wonderful-=she was also very helpful in guiding our hike choices the next morning.
The only thing that didn't work out so well was that, not having seen the campsite we had reserved, we found it difficult to find a level place for our tent and a safe pathway to go to the restroom at night.

Only stayed the night passing through but it was a very nice campground. Good tent pads, quiet (we were there Monday night so that helps), clean restrooms, and nice views.

We have stayed at this campground several times now. Very nice. Clean, heated restrooms. Wonderful views of the surrounding area including the Grand Valley in the distance.

Lovely park with good hikes. The campground was in a good location for my trip. However, the campsite was the worst I have experienced. The picnic table and cooking grill were down a very rough path and were several hundred yards from the place my car was parked. The actual campsite was barely wide enough for my car and was directly on the side of the road. This offered no privacy whatsoever. There was no shade. The light from the bathroom across the road lit up my site all night. I did appreciate the clean, flush restrooms.
