Mountainside RV Park

Imagine a campground where the rugged serenity of Gunnison National Forest meets the charm of a well-appointed yet simplified camping experience. Mountainside RV Park, located on Highway 133 in Somerset, Colorado, offers a prime setting for outdoor enthusiasts with its picturesque views of the Ragged Peak Range, the nearby waters of Paonia Reservoir, and direct access to hiking and ATV trails.

This campground is ideal for those seeking a genuine connection to nature with its mix of electric-only RV sites, tent camping areas, and cozy cabins. The peaceful atmosphere is enhanced by the soothing sound of Muddy Creek, which meanders through the property just three miles upstream from the reservoir. While facilities are intentionally minimal—featuring hot showers, flush toilets, and limited Wi-Fi in designated areas—they provide the essentials for an immersive getaway off the grid.

Situated along the scenic West Elk Loop, Mountainside RV Park places visitors within a short drive of standout attractions like the iconic Crystal Mill in Marble (20 miles away), the relaxing Penny Hot Springs (30 minutes away), and the vineyards and orchards of Paonia Wine Country. Whether stopping over or planning a multi-day retreat, this campground offers an ideal launch point for outdoor adventures and tranquil escapes in the heart of Colorado's wilderness.
