    Don’t Pass Them Up!

    This was my boys and my time first “real camping” with a tent and this was the perfect campground to get started with! Staff were super friendly. Site sells firewood and kindling, every site had its own fire pit, and amazing views were present at every area on camp. Showers and toilets were a little old but were clean and well maintained! Don’t pass this one up!

    great spot by creek

    loved this spot even stayed a couple extra days right by nice size creek the cooler weather was nice and meant not alot of bugs. more traffic on road than expected but not bothersome. people close by but not close enough to hear or bother you in anyway. site was clean. there were more shaded ones but we chose next to water. were a couple empty close by on a holiday weekend.

    Last Minute

    We had to change plans last minute and arrive here on short notice. They had sites to accommodate us and they were very welcoming. This was hands down the nicest privately owned rv park/campground we have ever stayed at! The bathroom suites have recently been remodeled and they are so nice! Best shower of our 10 day road trip. Nice laundry facilities, community rec room, hot tub, and even a hiking trail to the top of the mountain. Highly recommend.

    Peaceful and Secluded

    Came mid August. Arrived about 5pm on a Saturday and there were a handful of spots left. I was right next to the river. Had 2 groups close to me that I could see, but it wasn’t an issue. Easy enough to get to.

    Great spot near Co Springs

    What a great find close to Co Springs. It’s about 30-40 minutes south, and you feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere! A perfect alternative to the crowded campgrounds nearer to the city. The sites are nicely spaced, especially the pull-thru where we stayed. Owners are friendly and helpful, and overall it was super quiet. Phone service was spotty, but there was decent WiFi. We especially enjoyed watching the many hummingbirds zipping about. We would definitely return if we’re back in the area. Thanks for a great stay.

    Beautiful park with great hiking

    Spent one night here. Beautiful park with great hiking trails and full hook ups. Up on the side of a mountain overlooking Colorado Springs. Went to sleep hearing taps and was woken up hearing reveille. Also was visited by several jets from the nearby army base. Spaces were very nice and level and were oncrete with a picnic table. My only two complaints was you had to pay an extra $10 to get into the park even though you paid &46 to camp there and the road up to the campground for about a mile and a half was pretty steep, probably 8 to 9% grade. Watch your brakes coming down.

    Very cramped camping

    I chose this park due to the other reviews but they obviously had much different experience than we did. We were given camp site 44 and we were shocked! When we backed our little Little Guy teardrop camper into the spot we were 13 feet from the camper on the left, and there were 3 campers backed in at the back within FEET. Then a new camper pulled in on the right, a camper van. It was 5 feet from our door. Basically, it was like cramming 3 campers into one spot. It was like they put 3 campers in 1 campsite. This was an inside camp spot. The outer spots had more room. Also, out sewer hook up was 10 inches above ground making it super hard to get drainage. We looked around and there were quite a few like that but most were close to the ground. Like I said, it’s like they made 3 site out of one. The bathhouse is fine. They do have a nice laundry facility but you have to sign up for a time slot since the campground is so big. They had firewood and camper/camping supplies at the office. Given how many other campgrounds are in the area, I wouldn’t stay at this one again.

    Good for families!

    This campground was very nice! The sites are a little close together and it seemed like a lot of families were staying here for the weekend. It’s really close to red rocks Trail, which I highly recommend taking. There’s also a lake about a five minute drive from the campground as well. I showed up to a first come first serve site and had a very restful evening.

    Colorado Springs Best Kept Secret

    One of the cutest, cleanest, campgrounds we’ve stayed. The staff was incredibly nice and helpful. We stayed in one of the pull through sites and found it to be spacious with everything working as expected. Only minor knock was the cell service which was nonexistent but they did have free internet which was a satisfactory alternative.

    Mount Herman Road Dispersed Camping

    Remote

    I camped here for a little over a week. There is plenty of dispersed camping along the mountainous Road. Four wheel drive is required. There is also some dispersed camping allowed at the parking lot at the bottom of the mountain. However it is common for homeless people to be there and or larger size vehicles to be camping there. There is good Verizon signal for a while going up the mountain. It does go away once you get closer to the top. The larger camping sites are located closer to the top. With great views. Lower down on the mountain there are some spots to pull off on the side of the road. I camped like this for a while and walked a short distance to a pre-made camp fire. This is a popular place to camp especially over the weekends. So the road is a bit busy and narrow at some points

    Semi nice not great for big rigs

    This is not a big rig friendly park. Really did not like it. A lot of trees close to the road, making it hard to move around. Sites are close together and haphazardly played out. Trees are not trimmed to a good height for a large rig. If you have a small rig, this may be a good place for you. They do have goats as mowers. Electricity fluctuated throughout the park 104 to 118. Be careful.

    Lots of camping spots and fairly easy access. The road gets rougher the further you go in but no problem for a 4x4. Even a small car could get to some nice sites. If you don’t mind all the motorized vehicles (side by sides and bikes) it’s a great place with nice views to camp and enjoy.

    Not too far from town

    Stayed here for one night at the beginning of July. We drove up from Woodland Park and found a good pull off right away after passing a few others. There's also multiple dead end roads that stem from Rampart Range Rd. Unfortunately we found quite a bit of trash at our sight, including smashed bottles and glass. We would have spent more time exploring the area but we arrived around 8:00pm so the sun was already going down. This road is also fairly busy as we'd see a car every once and a while. We also passed a few other people camping while finding a spot of our own.
