Right off Highway 50, Mountain Goat Lodge sits on property that extends beyond basic camping into hiking territory. The established campground charges $89-$329 per night and provides full hookups for RVs along with standard amenities including showers, WiFi, and picnic tables. Cell service works reliably here.
The grounds offer trails to explore and what one recent camper described as "a lot of character" throughout the property. Campers can reserve sites in advance, and pets are welcome. For those planning extended stays in the Arkansas River valley, campsites near Poncha Springs provide additional options just a few miles south.
