Discover Ward RV rentals for memorable road trips

As is the case with most of the towns in and around Boulder County, Ward was once a flourishing mining settlement back when gold and other precious ores were discovered in Colorado’s Front Range. In fact, Ward was one of the most prosperous towns in the whole state during the Gold Rush due to copious amounts of gold, silver, and other precious metals near the Left-Hand Canyon by Ward.

Explore the Outdoors

It’s impossible to see all the beauty in Colorado in one lifetime, let alone one trip, so when you book an RV in Ward, there is an overwhelming number of forests and parks to visit. Brainard Lake Recreation Area is the closest you’ll find to the small town and is a fine place to camp with your Ward RV rental by owner. You can visit this popular park in winter or summer, and utilize the convenient hiking trails that circle the lake for walking, bicycling, snowshoeing, or cross-country skiing. Hunting is allowed in season at the recreation area along with skeet shooting and fishing.

RV Parks to Visit

<p>Those who choose to rent an RV in Colorado can rest assured that the state is one of the easiest places in the country to go camping. There are plenty of places to camp or park your Ward RV rental in Boulder County, or anywhere you look in the Centennial State. Most of the local campgrounds are located on national forest land and are publicly maintained with minimal amenities. Meeker Park Overflow Campground, Olive Ridge Campground, Longs Peak Campground, and Pawnee Campground are among the many viable options within minutes of town.</p>

City Sightseeing

Ward is hardly a big-name destination when it comes to trendy nightlife, big-name restaurants, retail shopping, or world-famous attractions. This tiny, mountain village hardly existed at one point with only four residents in town after the Gold Rush finished. Boulder is probably the nearest city to Ward with a wealth of exciting activities and attractions to occupy your vacation time.

We had a FANTASTIC trip to Moab, UT where we camped along the Colorado River. We explored Arches National Park and Canyonlands and enjoyed some amazing hikes! The camper was super comfortable, stocked with everything you could need and easy to tow. Hunter was always very responsive to any questions we had and easy to talk to. A nice guy who really wanted us to enjoy our trip-thank you. A trip full of great times and memories…

We had a lovely experience. Some minor hiccups at the start of the trip were handled by our hosts with care, and the van came with everything we needed as people flying in from out of town to have a fantastic time camping in Rocky Mountain National Park! Our driver reported the van being a lot easier to drive than he expected to, which was great for when we also took some time seeing the sights of Denver as well and it was pulling "Rental car" duty. With four adults in close relationships, it was perfect sleep-wise as well, but know the quarters are quite tight if you aren't as tight knit with who you're sharing the van with!

Fantastic host with a fantastic van! This is our second time renting with Maeve and we look forward to the next time. The experience from start to finish couldn't have been better.
