Ridgway State Park
Ridgway, Colorado · State campground · books through cpwshop.com, up to six months out.
Ridgway State Park near Ridgway is Colorado Parks and Wildlife territory. It sits about 182 miles southwest of downtown Denver as the crow flies, with Ridgway as the nearest supply town on our board. It runs about 258 sites.
This is a proper haul: the route runs out the US-285 corridor through the Platte River country, and the smart play is treating the drive as day one of the trip. Fuel and grocery stops get thinner the farther you get from the metro, so leave stocked, watch afternoon weather over the high ground, and arrive with daylight to spare.
At roughly 6,840 feet, the season runs longer here than at the high country camps, and spring or fall trips stay comfortable long after the mountain loops close for the year.
Hookup-wise, Colorado state parks are the best-equipped public camping in the region, and many loops here offer electric or full hookups. Those sites disappear first when the booking window opens, so grab them the same morning if your rig or your crew depends on power. Water and dump stations round out the infrastructure.

Booking a Site Here
Reservations run through Colorado Parks and Wildlife, bookable up to six months ahead. State parks carry the best hookup infrastructure in Colorado, so the full hookup loops go first. A daily vehicle pass or annual parks pass rides on top of the site fee.
Pairing It With a Camper
From Denver, treat this one as a proper road trip leg. Most renters pick the camper up in the metro and make the drive part of the trip; long-haul delivery can be quoted with lead time. Reserve the site in your own name first, then match the rig to the pad length and hookups. Our camper listings state length, tanks and power draw plainly, and we answer campground fit questions all day.
