### La Junta Camping & Cabins

La Junta Camping & Cabins is a family-friendly campground situated right off U.S. Highway on the western edge of La Junta, Colorado. We offer full-hookup RV sites, cozy cabin rentals, and unique glamping stays inside our fleet of restored cool historic railcars. Whether you’re an overnight traveler chasing that perfect Colorado sunset or someone who needs a reliable home base for weeks at a time, there’s a place for you here.

Straddling the old Santa Fe Trail, we’re just minutes from Bent’s Old Fort National Historic Site — a reconstructed frontier trading post where costumed interpreters bring Colorado history to life. A half-hour south, the canyon country of Picketwire and Vogel Canyons offers hiking, mountain biking, bird watching and a look at North America’s largest known dinosaur trackway in the world!

Want day-to-day convenience? Walmart, Village Inn, local restaurants, and essential services are all within easy walking distance. Coming in on U.S. Highway from Pueblo, Lamar, Limon or Trinidad? We’re right on the route — easy to reach from every direction, and even easier to settle into once you arrive.

“We loved our stay! Moving from coast to coast and stopped in La Junta for the night. Was quoted almost $500 for 1 night & 2 rooms at local hotel chains, then we found this wonderful gem! We stayed in a cabin and the caboose and we all loved the details and cool features of the caboose stay. The pool and water slide were incredible & the dog park for pups was neat. We didn’t get to play mini golf but we took a peek around. Highly recommend! The owner was wonderful and helpful in every way.”

"Very cute campground with trains being cabins! We stayed one night as we were traveling home. The laundry area was older but clean."

"Loved our stay once again. We visit La Junta every summer and the campground is beautifully maintained, cabins absolutely sparkling clean, and in a perfect location. I wanted to give 5 stars for the service but I guess that would depend on what time you find yourself interacting with the employees. In the mornings the woman working seems very condescending at times and unnaturally slow and out of it at other times. If you happen to be by in the afternoon however, there is an older woman that is absolutely wonderful and another woman always on the go but so kind!! Can't wait to see the progress made on those railcars!!"
