The Essential Guide to Mesa Verde National Park

"As the park’s lone campground, this grassy canyon near the entrance hosts 267 sites open from late April through early November, each with a picnic table, fire pit, and barbecue grill; RVs and trailers are welcome. A camp store, showers, and laundry add convenience, and booking a site here is a great way to experience Mesa Verde’s exceptional night skies." - Evie Carrick Evie Carrick Evie Carrick is a writer and editor who’s lived in five countries and visited well over 50.

12 Best Places to Go Camping in Colorado

"Southwest Colorado’s Mesa Verde National Park is an archeological wonder, as over 600 cliff dwellings built by Ancestral Puebloans exist across the park’s 52,000-plus acres. Add the fact that it’s one of the best places in the U.S. for stargazing, and you’ll be surprised to learn that Morefield rarely fills up, even during peak seasons. The whopping 267 sites might have something to do with that." - Travel + Leisure Editors

Wonderfully Campground. The sites and surroundings are beautifully taken care of. There is easy access to potable water, and Wi-Fi service on the grounds! Bathrooms with running water are intersperced throughout the campgrounds and the one I used was in good shape. My only complaint does involve the bathrooms- they are all marked with a bright light outside and while I understand why this is, the brightness is way too much. An enormous draw to Mesa Verde camping is the stunning night sky, but at the moment, the view from Morefield is stunted. All that said, I do look forward to staying at Morefield Campground's tent sites again the next time I visit Mesa Verde.

Showers were clean and open 24/7. Very little bugs and mosquitoes to worry about. I had arrived about 3 hrs before check in and they let me check in early for a tent site. You wouldn't know this until you go to the Campstore since park rangers at the visitor center do not take care of camping reservations. It gave me enough time to pick a site and set up camp prior to my scheduled tour. I was able to stay in contact with my family via the wifi on the campsite, however when I needed to call 911, my call did not go through being on the wifi. There was only SOS without wifi and that still didn't work. My phone is new as of May so I didn't think it was a phone issue. I was able to text my family to try to have them call the non-emergency number for the national park. When given the option to pick police, nothing happened according to my family. By the time I decided to get into the car to drive to cell phone service, I heard someone had gone up to talk to the guy causing problems. This guy sounded like he was "spoken to" about 3 times before he stopped. At that point it was about 2 hrs after the initial incident of him cursing and screaming at an unknown woman. I spoke to someone at the campstore about it the next morning. I was assured it was dealt with. The breakfast place next to the campstore has outdoor seating only but the warmers were on. The showers were still available to use even after your check out time for the day. There is also gas on site if you didn't want to leave the national park all together or needed just a little bit before you get somewhere more affordable. Overall the employees were great and sites were well maintained. Each tent site had their own bear container to use.

We headed in late and had no problem finding a spot to camp for the night on the Pueblo Loop. Site 15 was perfect and close to the well kept and clean bathroom. There were many loops and different spots to camp at. The views and location is beautiful and we saw many deer and a coyote too. It was quiet and a perfect place to sleep for the night before heading on our way. We were sadly not able to see any of the wonders here as we came during the national park closures but we still enjoyed seeing the park. We hope to come back someday!!

We were on the Zuni loop a hop skip and a jump to the showers and hot breakfast in the morning we were on campsite 43. A bear visited the berry tree beside our campsite on night no big deal it stayed in the tree for hours munching on berries Loved the hot showers. Missed out on 2 booked tours of pueblos due to the 10/1/25 govt shutdown. Did go to hovenweep and lowerys ruins which were both awesome. We were at a tent site. Great dark night sky’s

The campsite was nice. The bathrooms were easily accessible. The restaurant offered good breakfast options - including never-ending pancakes. There is expensive gas offered in the area as well as a small camp store. I would check the expiration dates on some of the food items before purchasing, though. The showers and laundry facilities were exceptional. My daughter enjoyed the crossword puzzle with randomly placed hints around the campsite. The ranger-led talk about a Hopi folktale was very entertaining and educational.

The campground area was fine. The view was spectacular. Unfortunately the shower facilities were undesirable. The units were damp and steamy regardless of the time of day. No restroom in the shower unit. NO HOOKS OR RACKS FOR TOWELS AND CLOTHING. THE ONLY PLACE FOR THESE ITEMS WAS ON A WET/DAMP BENCH. There were four of us in our party and one of the units had woefully inadequate drainage. (changing to a different unit after realizing this issue is difficult to say the least) This experience alone detracted from our entire stay.

Nice quiet campground. Great sites. We dry camped with a 22 ft travel trailer. Showers, coin op laundry and restrooms included near the general store and restaurant (all you can eat pankake breakfast!). Fuel available.

We loved this place..totally off grid. Small number of placements. No water (we knew this when we booked) but the toilets were very clean. The views are stunning and every placement seems to have one. Very quiet.and very close to Sand dunes National Park. The Zapata Falls were a great little.mini adventure too in very short walking distance.
