Sleeping Ute RV Park

Nothing too special about the park...pull through sites, indoor pool, etc. Next to a tribal casino so if you like to gamble, that's a bonus. No alcohol served, so if you like to drink, not an option! (Friday night seafood buffet wasn't bad!) Quiet park, could use a little TLC like weeding around the sites, trimming around trees, etc. but overall in decent shape. They take passport america for one night and good sam for any additional. Close/convenient to Cortez, Mesa Verde and Four Corners.

We are not casino people, and with this park associated with the Mountain Ute Casino, we were skeptical about staying. What a very pleasant surprise. This is a top-notch RV park at a really good price. Amazing views of Sleeping Ute mountain range. Nice layout with rowed shade trees. Receptionist was very welcoming and professional allowing us to pick our site. Gravel sites with patch of grass, concrete patio and picnic table. All sites are FHU seemed pretty level (I did not see folks using extensive leveling blocks most had no blocks) and all had modern connections. Excellent cable with lots of channels and excellent Wifi. Bathhouse is the nicest/cleanest we have seen in seven months of travel. Lots of tribal security patrolling so very safe. On that note: this is tribal land with tribal laws; please respect that – no open consumption of alcohol. Offers all kinds of discounts options.

The only thing is you need to type the address in don’t use the directions button it takes you way past the place. If you use the button make sure you know the street it is on and look for it right after you leave the highway it will be on your right otherwise you end up going way past it! We received a AAA discount.

We were impressed with the array of amenities offered at the Sleeping Ute RV Park. There is a nice lounge area off of the reservation desk, a pool and hot tub, bathhouse/showers, and coin laundry. There is a small fenced off-leash pet area and playground for the kids. Most sites are shaded by mature trees and the RV sites were mostly level, gravel pull-throughs with full hook-up/50amp. There is also a dump station.

You can walk across the parking lot to the Ute Mountain Casino, but Rog spent the day on the Phil’s World mountain bike trail system and then we hit up Moose & More in Cortez for gourmet ice cream and chocolates. Yum!!

We had 5 bars of Verizon 4G. The wifi didn’t work well at the far end of the campground where we were parked, however it was excellent near the office.

So we had to make a last minute change in our trip. Wife found this place and they had plenty of room. Showers were extremely clean. They have a few basic rv supplies in their lobby.

The casino had a refer on a trailer that ran all night long. Literally 100yds away. So that was annoying.

The staff was beyond friendly!

But over all the site offered everything we needed for the night.

We stayed here for 2 weeks and explored the area. The park is spacious and big-rig friendly - we had no problem maneuvering our 46' 5th wheel into the space. Office staff friendly and helpful. Super reasonable rate because we stayed 2 weeks; even better for a month.

Lots to see in the area - overlooks Sleeping Ute Mountain to the west, mesas to the east and southeast. Hovenweep Nat'l Monument is just an hour's drive across the border in Utah. Ancient Puebloan peoples' ruins there and at other places in this area.

Great motorcycle riding northeast of Cortez on CO Hwy 145, that runs up to Telluride.

Clean park, friendly staff. Eleven miles east of Cortez so, close to Mesa verde national park.
Casino 100 yards away.

They offer weekly and monthly rates as well although I didn’t get the specifics. I was able to get a full hookup site on a walk in basis. Nice place with security patrolling on a regular basis. The casino is very nice. Smoke and alcohol free. The campground is also alcohol free.

Paid the senior rate. Our site wasn’t level but we made it work. Clean showers that are free for campers. Has a small dog park. Basic necessity market.

The RV park is separate from the casino. It is very clean, the bath house was very nice. They have great WiFi, cable and a 1pm checkout.
We used passport America to get a discount. Beware sign on the door of office that Colorado has a strict mask law.
