In Salida there is only 1 campground that I know about, Four Seasons RV Park. We have stayed there a couple of times but not recently. It is okay and has some nice sites on the river that have a bit more room.
There is a campground west of Salida about 10 miles, Heart of the Rockies Campground. It also is okay, nothing fancy and though it does have trees there isn't a lot of shade. We stayed there last fall on our way home from western Colorado and the manager was very nice and helpful as I was pulling doubles and needed a long space. Have also stayed there in the past with good experiences. The place was for sale last fall so I don't know where that is at now.
There is another campground west of there, Monarch Spur RV Park but I don't know anything about it.
As others have said, there are more campgrounds in Buena Vista including a KOA if that interests you. We have stayed at Arrowhead Point Campground, which is north of town, a number of times and enjoyed it, especially the quiet as it is back from the highway.
Hope that helps.
