Palisade Basecamp RV Resort is a modern private resort on the Colorado River in Palisade, in Colorado's Western Slope wine and peach country, off the Fruit and Wine Byway. Our statewide Colorado guide covers it briefly but singles it out as the place to stay if tasting rooms and orchards are the point of the trip: full hookups on every site and an easy walk or bike ride to the wineries. It suits couples, wine-country weekenders and anyone who wants lower-elevation comfort while the high mountains are still cold.

Palisade Basecamp RV Resort is a modern private resort on the Colorado River in Palisade, in Colorado's Western Slope wine and peach country, off the Fruit and Wine Byway. Our statewide Colorado guide covers it briefly but singles it out as the place to stay if tasting rooms and orchards are the point of the trip: full hookups on every site and an easy walk or bike ride to the wineries. It suits couples, wine-country weekenders and anyone who wants lower-elevation comfort while the high mountains are still cold.
The practical picture: full hookups with 20/30/50-amp power, water, sewer and Wi-Fi, more than 100 camping options, and big rigs accommodated. Rates run roughly $80 to $100 per night, which is approximate and in line with what our guide calls the new normal for Colorado gateway-town resorts. Booking is direct. Because the Western Slope sits lower and runs a longer season than the high country, this is a good spring and fall base when mountain parks are closed. The trade-off is price: you are paying resort rates for a riverside setting and location, so budget travelers may prefer a nearby state park.
