We have camped in all of these places mentioned above many times over the years.
Be careful in Glenwood Springs. The traffic on the very narrow streets, uncluding the highway southbound through downtown is tight. The Police Department in Glenwood Springs is also very strict and in our experience very unfriendly. We have not been officially contacted by the police there but the times we have met and even asked directions with the police, we have been notified that "big rigs are not welcome".
The Tall Texan Resort in Gunnison is a nice place. We have always enjoyed it. A few times, some years ago, we met and visited, and had supper with Colorado Governor Love and his wife who also stayed at the Tall Texan (Owned by George Briley) when the Governor and his wife stayed over weekends in Gunnison. In July,the Cattlemen's Days celebration in Gunnison is worth seeing also.
Another RV Park that we have enjoyed in Gunnison is West of Town on the Lake, Mesa RV Resort(Good Sam Park).
We have also stayed at Gunnison Lakeside Resort (A Passport Park), also West of Town on U.S. 50.
The KOA Park just at the West edge of town in Gunnison is also a very nice RV Park and is the closest to town.
The National Park Service also has a number of Parks at Gunnison, The Largest of all at the East area of the Lake along U.S. 50.
There is also a very nice Forest Service Campground at Taylor Lake Northwest of Gunnison and up the Taylor River from Almont.
