Wolcott BLM Campground

A boat ramp and the Eagle River anchor the Wolcott BLM Campground, a first-come, first-served site just east of scenic Red Canyon. Accessible directly from Interstate 70 at Exit 157, the campground requires travelers to turn north onto the frontage road, follow Old Highway 6 past the Wolcott Yacht Club, and descend to the site. There is no reservation system; visitors secure a spot upon arrival for a nightly fee of $10. The grounds operate annually from May 15 through November 15, with stay limits adjusted for the season: seven days during the busy summer months of May through August, and 14 days from September through November. The facility is wheelchair accessible, offers free Wi-Fi, and provides ample parking for those exploring the Western Slope. Managed by the Bureau of Land Management's Colorado River Valley Field Office, this public land area serves as a practical base for outdoor enthusiasts.
