Beautiful County Park by Rocky Mountain NP
Just south of Estes Park, CO and ~30 minutes to rocky mountain national park. This county park is a hidden gem. Huge open space preserve with a few great hikes (Kruger rock had phenomenal views but moderately strenuous). We stayed in the bobcat loop that was 2.5 miles up a dirt road from the entrance. Aside from the windy dirt road, no complaints from us - would stay again!
