A Place To Enjoy The Great Outdoors
Peacock Meadows offers Rocky Mountain nature in all it’s splender. We have more than 7 acres of nature trails, wetlands and even a large active beaver pond. Our beaver pond is the home for a large beaver family, muskrats, deer, multiple fish species and is an annual breeding habitat for ducks and geese. One naturalist recently counted more than 25 species of birds in less than an hour – including a beautiful pair of bald eagles who frequents our park. If you’re a nature lover, our park has a lot to offer.

Whether you just need to know where to camp nearby or you want to plan a free camping road trip, we’ve got you covered. You can simply use your smart phone’s GPS to find camping near you or even use our trip planner to plan your route from coast to coast.
Our community provides the best free camping information available. Free campgrounds can be hard to find. Freecampsites.net makes it easy. We give you a simple, map based search engine to find free and cheap camping areas. Community reviews and ratings provide you with up to date information and help you select the best camp site for your next camping trip.
This is a platform for sharing campgrounds and camp sites you have discovered. We are community driven, and while we will be adding many free camping spots, we hope that you will add some of your favorite camping places as well. By sharing camping information freely, we can all spend less time researching campgrounds, spend less money, and more time camping. If everyone contributes a few campsites, we’ll all have more places to go camping.
Please come back and let us know what you find!
We are not actively seeking Wal-Marts, truckstops or other parking lots and will not be adding very many of these. There are enough Wal-Mart and truck stop directories out there already. However, if a member of the community finds one of these locations to be useful for overnight RV parking and creates an entry, we may approve the listing.

Camping Near Rio Grande Reservoir
The headwaters of the Rio Grande River begin just before the Rio Grande Reservoir on the Continental Divide. The big, long reservoir is noted for its excellent trout fishing, as well as boating, from May 16 through October. Hiking is excellent, with quick access to nature trails into the Weminuche Wilderness from campgrounds below.
If you have a high-clearance, 4×4 you can venture over Stony Pass further west from the reservoir. 2WD is suitable to reach the reservoir and the campgrounds on the way in Forest Road 520, but is snow blow and inaccessible during the winter.
