  Applewood RV Resort by Rjourney

  This is now Applewood RV resort

  The name has changed; there was an abrupt change of ownership recently.   The web page for Prospect RV Park will get you nothing, and the phone number is disconnected.

  The new contact info is Applewood RV resort, 303-872-0091, web page https://rjourney.com/locations/co/wheat-ridge/applewood-rv-resort-llc

  Seems from reviews to be nice; it's annoying that "Prospect RV Park" seems to have evaporated from the planet, and it took a lot of googling to find out about the name/ownership change.  It would be nice if the phone/web page had some forwarding.  (That's why just three stars; I may change that after we've stayed there.)

  Cripple Creek Gold Campground

  Convenient location

  Cripple creek Rv park was very conveniently located just 2 blocks behind casinos . Great views . Most people here are long term. As a matter of fact no line else checked I or our when we were there. Make sure to call the day of arrival to confirm site number the are old school and no emails or txt . No paper or board for late night check in with direction for site . We got there late it was raining and thank you for nice level site . Overall if you are looking to do some gambling and see the site it works as a home base .

  Peak RV Resort

  Will not visit again

  Total charge was $101/night with fees. $7 reservation fee (I called in) and $6.40 credit card fee. 

  Feel free to think I'm paranoid but I absolutely did NOT like that we were required to allow them to copy our driver's license. In 12 years of RV'ing I've never seen this. The desk promised to shred the ID copy after we left or return it to us (when we left the clerk was confused about giving it back). 

  SIX pages! of legalese rules you have to sign that are obviously not being enforced anyway and appear to be focused on long term guests.

  If there had been other options for a last minute stay I would have left, but they probably would have kept my money. Cancelations <72 hours before is NO REFUND. 

  Sites are adequately spaced and are neat and clean. Some small trees (fairly new park). Very nice paved roads and gravel sites but really just a parking lot. Some long term guests. 

  No picnic table or fire ring (wood fires not allowed in any case). 

  As with most "RV Resorts" describing it thusly is an exaggeration. 

  Gate code required for entry, difficult to see screen in sunlight. 

  Fees charged to accept packages.$1.50-$5 depending on size. 

  Two dogs under 25 pounds each are allowed.

  Cripple Creek Hospitality House & Travel Park

  Best rv park in Tellar County

  Have spent summer 2021 here.  A few blocks from all the casinos (they all run shuttles).

  Great staff, owners on site daily.  There is a food truck (Doc's) with GREAT food, permanently on site. Laundry on site, Shower & bathrooms.
  The Cripple Creek Burros (free range about town) are here often. NOTE: the burros like our hummingbird feeders!
  Open year round (limited rv sites open through winter)
  Hotel on property was once the Cripple Creek Hospital and is "period restored."

  I've spent seven summers in Colorado in my rv, Hospitality House and RV Park has been one of the best summers we've had.

  32' 5th wheel, 50 amp. Reasonable long term rate.

  Dakota Ridge RV Park

  Car was stolen over night

  I stayed at this location a few times the last time I stayed they forcibly broke into my car and stole it. Abandoning me in my travel trailer. No one from the park reached out to me. In fact I had to go to them to ask them to give police the video from the night. Several cars were broke into as well. In addition, they did not offer to contact surrounding campsites tenants for additional video. Since they are severally lacking in surveillance. So I had to go around to every camper and ask. In addition the police will not show up in the area they will text you. Point is if you value belongings don’t pay 60-90/night to have your stuff stolen. Speaking to long term tenants it’s been a problem. Also the bathrooms never have soap and they are from the 70’s a trash rv park. All the spots are paved and some how not level.

  Garden of the Gods RV Resort

  Great experience with plenty of amenities

  I had a great experience at Garden of the Gods RV resort. They must have changed owners or management in the past year because the older reviews I saw weren't as glowing.

  The park was clean, staff was helpful and friendly, there's 24 hour laundry, showers, electric and sewage hookups with a general store and food truck in the mornings.

  It was easy to walk to downtown Old Colorado Springs and there's a free shuttle that'll take you to Manitou Springs. It feels safe even as a single female camper!

  Middlefork RV Resort

  Good for an overnighter

  We weren't planning on staying in Fairplay, but it was getting late so we tried Middlefork RV Park. The sites are all gravel, ours was nice and level. You can get either full hookups or water/electric only. There is a dump station on site. You can pan for gold or trout fish right at the campground. I didn't check out the shower house, it's at the far end of the campground.

  Tiger Run RV Resort

  One of the best

  One of the nicest RV resorts we’ve found. Sites are spacious, very well maintained, and the grounds are beautiful. Breckinridge has a lot to offer, as does surrounding area. Late September colors, especially Aspen trees, are awesome. We’ll be back.

  Overpriced long term park

  Called this park to inquire on a spot for long term and the rate was $1700 plus electric. For the size and condition of this park, that is outrageously overpriced.

  Base Camp at Golden Gate Canyon

  Great for a quick overnight

  We stopped in after an afternoon of driving. The sites were level and very clean, hookups were easy (nice threaded, tidy black/grey water) , lots of Aspen trees between the sites, but still a bit close together. It was a very quiet Monday evening towards the end of the season when we were there, so the spacing was okay. I can see that the sites would be very close together if the property was full.

  It is really nice that they keep the long term sites on the other side of the building. The highway noise wasn’t bad.

  Our nine year old really liked the playground area.

  The bathrooms were very clean and recently remodeled, but require coins if you were going to shower.

  Tiger Run RV Resort

  Full service RV park

  This RV resort is a fantastic location & open year-round. The park is clean and has lots of shade. The price is a little steep but you get lots of amenities. There is an indoor pool, two spas & men’s and women’s shower and dressing rooms. The only negative besides the price on this campground is the garbage is centrally located at the clubhouse which can be far from many campsites. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

  Middlefork RV Resort

  Decent Place for An Overnight

  Pretty much your average RV Park, though the bathrooms and showers were exceptional. Finding the place is a bit of a challenge though. You have to turn into a shopping Center parking lot, and go down a small dirt road on the west side of the lot. Kind of a weird setup but I guess because of the topography they had no choice. Front office dude was not really very friendly or welcoming. Some weird guy kept wandering around out in the field behind the RV spaces talking to himself.

  Cottonwood RV Campground

  More of a Mobile Home Park

  This review will be short and sweet. This is an okay place for a quick night stopover. I wouldn’t go beyond this and it’s certainly not for tents.

  This is your true stereotypical mobile home park. Nothing at all wrong with that but really not much of a campground at all, more a permanent resident locale.

  Again- nothing screamingly horrible here. Just mostly mobile home park and long term residents in trailers.

  Dakota Ridge RV Park

  RV park in Denver area

  I have stayed here a few times. Perfect for when I come to town for a concert at Red Rocks! Be forewarned that there is a lot of traffic noise coming from 2 sides and a bar across the street with bands playing Thursday thru Sunday and loud motorcycles, although not an issue to me. The RV Resort is fantastic with a nice staff, a great pool and awesome showers! The trails that are accessed at the back of the park is a cherry on top!

  Garden of the Gods RV Resort

  Great location but sites aren't very nice.

  We stayed here June 27th-29th in a Deluxe Plus Pull Through. This RV Park is adequate as a stop over when visiting Garden of the Gods due to the location; otherwise, this park isn't anything special. Our site consisted of a narrow dirt pad and we did have a picnic table, but our neighbor's sewer connection was literally right next to our table. The spots are super close throughout the park& neighboring hookups are right outside the door. Also, there was tent camping in the RV spots, which isn't a big deal but certainly has a very different vibe than families who are RVing with their kids.

  Garden of the Gods RV Resort

  Great amenities

  As one of the only campsites with vacancies at last minute, this was a great spot to stop. Super close to pikes peak entrance and town, but still quiet. Super packed, lots of long term tenants. GREAT SHOWERS & laundry!

  Dakota Ridge RV Park

  Worst ever! Tight spaces. Tall weeds. Close to neighbor's sewer.

  We are at Dakota Ridge RV Resort in Golden, Colorado, Site# M22. It is terrible and we are grateful that we are only here for 2 nights. Pictures below represent the state of our site- weeds are knee high; there is a sharp dropoff at the end of the site, which overlooks an industrial parking lot. Our door leads right out to the neighbor's connections, including sewer. Our picnic table sits next to those too. Can't put out the awning because of trees overhanging our site. It's Memorial Day weekend and the pool is closed. The showers and laundry room building closes at 5 pm. Plus it's overpriced! Will never be back.

  Pikes Peak RV Park

  Not bad

  Great location. Full hook up. Helpful staff. Safe.

  Not very nice. We paid extra for a river soy and it wasn’t worth the extra cost. Spots are TIGHT. We had to work so hard to get out trailer in. It’s pretty cramped all around actually- too close to the neighbors and not very many amenities.

  Not bad overall, but I think if we return to Colorado Springs, we could find better.

  Rocky Top Motel & Campground

  Close to CO Springs & Manitou Springs

  Rocky Top is close to Colorado Springs, Manitou Springs, & Woodland Park. It has rv sites as well as a hotel and is located off I-24. Site #23 had full hookups and was a partially paved site, with a picnic table. Few trees are located within the rv park itself. Bathhouse was clean and required a code to get into them. There is also an attached laundry room that had 4 washers and 4 dryers (coin operated). Small playground located at the front of the park, but it looked like they were still working on it. Park provides free WiFi but it is iffy at times and cell signal is non existent for AT&T. Overall would camp here again.

  Applewood RV Resort by Rjourney

  Good location

  Good location close to interstate to access all the cool towns and site seeing west of Denver. We stayed for softball tournament and we were very close to Lotz park and about 25 minutes from Westminister parks.

  Spots were VERY CLOSE together so we didn’t like that at all. Definitely not the Colorado outdoorsy feel. A lot of long term folks there too. Neighborhood felt a little sketchy but we we didn’t have any issues.

  Close to Prospect lake so a good place to walk dogs.

  Facilities were very clean and well maintained.

  Stoll Mountain Campground — Eleven Mile State Park

  High Plateau Peace

  Another great Colorado State Park, it sits above Eleven Mile Reservoir. The sites offer everything from tent sites to full hook up. There is limited shade, but most sites are exposed.

  Theres beautiful hikes around the lake and the fishing is awesome between the reservoir and Spinny Lake, and 11 Mile Canyon below the dam.

  Clear Creek RV Park

  Good for RV stop

  Nice little rv / camp site. This is mainly an RV park. Super clean, offers picnic tables, laundry, bathroom and showers. The bathrooms require a code. The site is located inside of Golden parks, which mean local police patrolled the property throughout the night. You cannot smoke in your site, only a small designated area. The staff does not answer the phone and has short hours. We made a reservation for the wrong day (same day) called couldn’t get anyone, finally was told you have to cancel 72 hours in advance for refund even though we booked the same day so we lost a night stay and had to rebook… seems understaffed

  Dakota Ridge RV Park

  Very Noisy Park

  Pros: Next to a park on top of ridge. Easy hike to Stegosaurus Ridge. Full hook ups Friendly staff Garbage pick up and dumpsters Quick to repair electric pedestal Cons: Across the street from very loud biker bar that play very loud live music starting on Thursday and plays until Saturday. While they mostly stop playing by 10, sometimes the bands play until 10:30 Sites are very close together There is not enough parking During rain or melting snow the place is very muddy Expensive
  Stayed from March to first part of June
