About Gunnison Lakeside RV Park & Cabins

Campground in Colorado.

Nestled along the scenic banks of Gunnison, Colorado, this lakeside RV park offers the perfect basecamp for exploring one of the state's most picturesque mountain regions. Located on US Highway 50, the park sits in an area blessed with stunning natural beauty, where outdoor recreation enthusiasts find endless opportunities for adventure throughout the year.

The Gunnison area is renowned for its world-class fly fishing, particularly along the Gunnison River, which draws anglers from across the country seeking trophy trout and peaceful days on the water. Whether you're an experienced fly fisher or just looking to learn, the pristine waters here provide an unforgettable experience. Beyond fishing, the region offers excellent hiking, mountain biking, and wildlife viewing. The nearby Curecanti National Recreation Area features breathtaking reservoir scenery and numerous trails suitable for various skill levels.

These steep, narrow canyons carved by the Gunnison River create an awe-inspiring sight that shouldn't be missed. The area's high elevation, ranging around 7,500 feet, means cooler summers perfect for escaping the heat and enjoying comfortable camping weather.

The community maintains a welcoming atmosphere toward visitors, with seasonal events and farmers markets adding to the appeal. The region experiences four distinct seasons, each offering unique advantages. Fall brings spectacular aspen colors, while summer provides ideal weather for outdoor activities.
