We own a beautiful 10 acre property with awesome views going up Current Creek Mountain Road in Fruitland Utah and a 5 acre property with awesome mountain views in front of the Dinosaur National Monument in Dinosaur Colorado. We look forward to sharing both with you! Fruitland is a great location and it's only an hour from the property up on the mountain to Park City Utah. There is a full service gas station with a restaurant, RV Park, and even a small church building in town just minutes down the mountain. There are several reservoirs within a short drive in every direction from the campsite. Amazing amounts of wildlife right on the property throughout the year. Dinosaur is a great location and it's 5 minutes from the property to the CO side of the Dinosaur National Monument and less than 30 minutes from the UT side and the Dinosaur National Monument Quarry Visitor Center. There are full service gas stations, restaurants, cannabis dispensaries, as well as a convenience-store, liquor store, RV Park, and electric vehicle charging station in town just minutes down the road. There are several well known hiking trails within a short drive in every direction from the campsite. The Fruitland campsite is best for tent camping. Pulling anything bigger than a small camper into this campsite will be difficult. There will be flexibility on cancellations due to weather on the mountain. The Dinosaur campsite is well suited for tent & RV camping. Pulling in campers and motorhomes into this campsite will be very easy. Direct year-round access to the property is off of HWY 40. Pets will also be allowed without restrictions.

The best camping near Red Fleet State Park guide

Overview

About

If you’re ever feeling old, just visit Red Fleet State Park, where you can hike to 200-million year old dinosaur tracks. Yeah, that’ll have you feeling young again! Budding paleontologists will want to check out the tracks, too. Get there via a 1.5-mile trail with a few uphill and downhill spots that’ll get your lungs pumping and your legs burning. It’s best to go during early morning or late afternoon, since the burning Utah sun can make the tracks hard to pick out. If you make the trip in the morning, spend the rest of your day relaxing on Red Fleet Reservoir. Boating and fishing are popular, and if you’re lucky enough to catch some dinner for your group, enjoy it in the park’s scenic campground that overlooks the sandstone and desert that surrounds you.

When to go

The best time to visit Red Fleet State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural beauty is at its peak. Summer offers warm waters for swimming, though it can be hot. Winter brings a quiet, stark beauty, but be prepared for cold temperatures.

Know before you go

  • Check the park's webpage or Facebook page for the latest updates on construction and access.
  • Day-use areas may be limited during renovations, but hiking trails remain open.
  • For alternative camping options, consider Steinaker State Park nearby.
  • Remember to pack out all trash and respect the natural environment.
  • Accessibility may vary during construction, so verify available facilities before your visit.
