Palisade Campground features a short, steep boat ramp and parking lot on the north side of the Rio Grande, serving as a popular take-out point for float trips.

The campground sits along Highway 149 between South Fork and Creede at 8,300 feet elevation, offering 12 campsites with vault toilets and seasonal water/trash service (Memorial Day through Labor Day).

This is a heavily used area that tends to stay full mid-June through August, so early afternoon arrival is recommended.
