The Palisade Basecamp & RV Park offers a wide variety of year-round lodging options. You could enjoy a one-of-a-kind camping experience no matter where you set up your arrangements, whether along a vineyard, down by the river, or up on the cliff overlooking the river and the peach orchards surrounding it.

Most tourists only stay for a few nights; however, some stays of up to 150 days are permitted. The extended stay program at Palisade Basecamp offers a mild winter for snowbirds and an extra month or two of summer for those who want to make the area their seasonal home. Camping in Palisade over all four seasons is a must.

Trailers & RVs

All of their RV and trailer sites have beautiful views and various features to meet any traveler’s needs, like full hookups, 20, 30, and 50 AMP service, and WiFi. There are premium back-in, pull-in, and pull-through sites, as well as Vineyard and River Bluff sites that are more rustic.

Riverside Tent Sites

Tent sites are flat and hidden among cottonwoods or right on the riverbank, providing a picturesque setting for a night beneath the stars. Group campsites are readily available, making this a fantastic choice for families. These sites are away from the rest of the facilities and have easy access to the heated bathhouse and hot showers, in addition to being quiet and isolated.
