4.4‑Acre Stargazer’s Haven on US‑40 – Build, RV or Glamp beside Dinosaur National Monument
Four minutes east of the Dinosaur National Monument gate, this nearly square 4.4‑acre parcel fronts 115 ft on the Dinosaur Diamond Prehistoric Highway (US‑40) in Moffat County, Colorado. By day you’ll soak in unobstructed views of the monument’s sandstone cliffs; by night you’re under one of the West’s prized International Dark‑Sky domes—perfect for Milky Way campfire photos.
Why You’ll Love It
✅ Turn‑key access & build‑ready – raised gravel driveway built for Class A RVs leads to two cleared homesites on level, flood‑free ground.
✅ Utilities within reach – power at the road (approx. six poles to a house site), ideal soils for well & septic, and 5G internet service.
✅ Flexible zoning – bring a stick‑built home, manufactured, tiny house, RV, or livestock; short‑term rentals are allowed.
✅ Income on day one – existing RV pad grosses about $25/day May‑Nov, and a “glamping” tent (included or removed at your request) can fetch ~$100/night on Airbnb.
✅ Prime highway exposure – US‑40 is the route for monument traffic; a simple $99 k roadside sign already pulled a dozen buyer calls.
