Visit Garden of the Gods, Cave of the Winds (try the Bat-a-Pult ride!), and other area attractions. Stay in a fully equipped Cabin, pitch a tent or pull into an RV Site (including extra-large sites). If you are planning a rally or family reunion, this KOA has a hall for those scrumptious potlucks or have them catered by the staff. During the summer, enjoy our splash park, take a dip in the heated pool, or relax in the hot tub. Pets will have a great time being with their families, meeting new dogs, running in the dog park, or trying out the agility park.

Spillway Campground is perched along the South Platte River near the base of the dam of Eleven Mile Reservoir. Adventurists and families alike will find things to do here. Birding is excellent, as is hiking. Rock climbers enjoy the solid rocky cliffs of the canyon and fly fishermen find abundant catches in the river.
Hike the Overlook Trail for breathtaking views of Eleven Mile Canyon and Reservoir. Occasionally, Golden Eagles can be viewed nesting in the nearby granite cliffs and crags. Springtime brings higher chances of spotting Bald Eagles. Visitors enjoy fishing by shore or canoe. Rainbow and brown trout, kokanee salmon and pike are among the species anglers are likely to find.
The campground, at altitude 8,500 feet, is located at the edge of Eleven Mile Canyon, furthest from the canyon entrance. Some campsites are shaded by scattered spruce and ponderosa pine. Spillway is the closest campground to the Eleven Mile Reservoir, which spans 3,405 surface acres and 5 miles in length. Eleven Mile Canyon was cut by the South Platte River and is bordered by polished gray granite cliffs.
Visitors enjoy the Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, one of the richest and most diverse fossil deposits in the world. Petrified redwood stumps up to 14 feet wide and thousands of detailed fossils of insects and plants reveal the story of a very different, prehistoric Colorado.

I did not stay here but pulled through on my way from Canon City to Beuna Vista. I had ATT coverage for cell and data. Looked very nice and right by the river.
Scout
We didn’t stay more than one night, but most KOA’s don’t disappoint and this one didn’t either. A very welcoming place with warm camping cabins. I recommend it.
Legend
This KOA journey has a friendly and helpful staff, and offers all of the bare essentials so you can get ready for your next stop. The campground is 8 miles from Cañon City and 4 miles from Royal Gorge.
Sites are a mix of dirt and gravel and as with much of the desert, you should expect it to be very dusty. Our site was very close to our neighbor and in combination with the high winds during our visit, we didn’t spend much time outside. Full hookups are conveniently located and offer water/sewer and 30/50amp service.
The campground has propane refills available on site. The staff was kind enough to let us drop off our tanks and they brought them back to us once someone was available to fill them. The laundry is open 24 hours. There are (4) washers and (4) dryers available at a cost of $2 per load. There is no change machine, so bring your own quarters or stop in the office and the staff can help you with exchanging some small bills.
Traveler
Best of both worlds! We had a great tent spot up on the hill with a great view of the valley behind. So it was a quiet tent spot to ourself, but 30 seconds down the hill foe access to the amazing restroom and showers! Also the laundry facilities were fantastic. The pool and hot tub were fantastic in the hot days. The staff was very nice!
Close to all the sites.
Legend
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.
GuideWe enjoyed our stay at the Royal Gorge RV Resort. The new owners were in the process of updating the bathhouse which will look beautiful from what I could see! The sites were level and well-kept. The camp store was well stocked with firewood, camping supplies, a s’mores bar, cold drinks and lots of Colorado made items. The view from the hot tub was amazing! The fire pits on the patio were cozy and inviting. The location was perfect, close to the Royal Gorge bridge, rafting in the Arkansas River, hiking trails, the Royal Gorge Route Railroad and several great restaurants. The playground was very kid friendly and the giant jumping pillow was super fun! We are already planning our next visit!!
Guide
What a great looking KOA with a water park and tons of amenitites and activities! Unfortunately the outwards looks can be deceptive. Up close almost everything was broken and undermaintained. Wifi worked for a few hours our first day, never working again. The splash pad and pool were filthy with brown water collecting in low points and so many things floating in it and none NONE of the accessory interactive features like the water shooters or fun parts for little kids. The hot tub was closed. The jump pad had more than half of the tie down points disconnected, but was open for use most of the time. The bubbles platform was closed and none of the horshoe, cornhole, or other areas had their items out for use. Occasionally staff would come out and throw 2 liter bottles of soda pop at the kids, which was both unhealthy and kind of bizarre. They offered games and prizes inside their recration hall, which I think we can just call a Covid transfer room full of unvaccinated kids from hotspot states.
The rv pad was actually rather nice with a good patch of weeds between campsites, table, and working water, power, and sewer hookups.
GuideThis was our first time in a KOA (I realize they run the gamut) but we were overall very happy. We just stayed for one night on our way up to Estes Park, but I wanted a level sight with minimal setup hassle and full hookup. We got that and more.
There are a LOT of amenities here. We DID take advantage of the miniature golf course ($2 per round per person, goes to charity) but didn't have time for the disc golf and many other fun looking areas. (Pool and hot tub are still closed due to COVID). But the price is a little high if you consider they are probably charging you for availability and upkeep of the fun amenities. It's totally fair to do so, of course...but still, it's a little pricey.
On the other hand, we got our VERY level sight and great hookups. The sites are VERY close together, some of the tightest we've ever seen. Again, for one night, not a big deal. Might have been a bit claustrophobic if we'd stayed longer.
I would unhesitatingly come here again if the need arose. Overall, very nice location. (Oh, and all the folks we interacted with were very friendly.)
Traveler
Looking at the website from the link on The Dyrt, there's no mention of RV sites, just Glamping cabins, etc. UPDATE: I'm headed to Canon City area so I'll check out this campground to verify.
ScoutA great midpoint basecamp location for going up to Colorado Springs area or down to Canon City(Royal Gorge) areas. The campground was always quiet in the evenings and felt secure. There were some black bear visitors during our stay so be cautious with food.
LegendThis campground is situated on the road to Royal Gorge, so there's that convenience. It looked like they had a lot of seasonal activities that were closed when we were there in October.
This is a typical KOA(or any commercial campground). Sites are close together. We were placed near the bathroom, which was fine. There was plenty of lighting at night! Staff was friendly. The girl that checked us in couldn't recommend an area restaurant, but finally told me she goes to Muggs a lot. The guy in the golf cart who took us to our site was VERY nice!
The bathrooms were only ok. Everything looked clean except for the shower curtains, which were filthy. We camped at Royal Gorge/ Canon City KOA Holiday in a Travel Trailer
ScoutThis is a lovely campground spread out among pines, cedars & hills. However , it is very important to get a spot away from the road. As I’ve read in other reviews, there is a rock quarry just down the road. Beginning early morning until late afternoon M-F, trucks roar up and down this road. If your spot is near the road, as our was, it is very annoying-especially if you try to set outside. Many of the spots in the back are by month only, but plan ahead if you want stay here and get as far away from this busy road as possible. While it is located well away from any town, it’s close enough to CO Springs, Pueblo, and Canon City, 20-30 minutes for great day trips. The grounds and public area are all very clean and well maintained. Staff was very friendly & helpful. Each afternoon the park was visited by multiple deer and turkey. The only negative here is the road noise!
Guide
National forest cabin that is affordable. Very rustic with no water and only one outlet. Cabin has an outhouse that is fifty feet from cabin. Located in a great area with San Isabel lake and Bishops castle near by. Lots of hiking and off roading near by. Two bedrooms upstairs and day bed down. Interesting history to the cabin, read about it before you go.
Scout
Beautiful place to bring the family as They have activities for all ages we stayed in a couples cabin which was beautifully done log furniture comfortable bed Fire pit in front of Cabin. There is showers laundry and store. Casions just 5 min away
Guide
Lots of stuff here. Cabins/studios. Tons of RV sites
Guide
Cabins available and horse rings/stables available all over. Reservations needed.

Customer service was phenomenal the cabins were clean and so was the bathroom can't ask for more
Guide
Great small, year round rv park with cabins and tent area! Stayed there in 2019 and will be returning this year!
RangerWe stayed in our camper but they had nice looking cabins and talked to an older lady who said they kept them up real nice.
RangerMe along with four other friends spent several days tent camping around the Colorado Springs area. On our last night of travel, our camping plans fell through and we needed to find a convenient place late at night to rest. We ended up at the KOA and took advantage of one of their adorable little cabins. All five of us spent the night, actually pretty comfortably, and got a great night's sleep. All and all a very positive experience at the KOA's wonderful, clean facilities.
Scout
We stayed in one of the tiny cabins, and it's adorable and so warm even when it was snowing. The alpacas and llamas are hilarious and cute. Definitely recommend a visit
GuideThis place has lots of stuff. Tons of cabins and RV spots. They have a few personal campsites with ceilings above them (like a carport). Lots of things for kids to do. Great views of Cheyenne mountain and Pikes Peak.
Traveler
RV full hookup sites available, as well as cabin and tent sites. Dump station and outdoor sinks if needed. Pool, fishing lake and kids play area. Video game room. Free WiFi. No cable hookup. Just off highway, so slightly noisy without A/C.
Guide
One of the very few camp grounds that is within a National Forest. I truly loved the experience I had up there and am looking forward to get back up there again. Although with the COVID-19 virus going around the folks camping seem to be a little light and it does fill up fairly well on weekend campers it's a diamond in the rough for a place to be away from the ruckus of everyday life. There are three tent campsites along with I have no idea RV/Motor Home sites, 8 cabins with 6 of them being only sleeper cabins. The other two have running water and a toilet but no hot water. One also needs to remember while camping there that San Isabel National Forest is under Extreme Fire Danger so camp fires and any type of open fires are not allowed.
GuideWe stayed her while passing through to Kansas. The cabin was clean, the staff was nice and polite, they have fun activities for the kiddies or young at heart. We got in late and left early so overall our stay was nothing special but I would recommend it to anyone just passing through.
RangerNice campsite with a lot going on. Fun for kids with pool and slides as well as a lot of activities created by the staff for kids. Right by a riverside with scenic walks. Campsites are clean and quiet at night. Cabins available with an outdoor kitchen area. Sites are expanding along the river in future.
GuideThis is our second stay at the Royal Gorge Campground. We had a fabulous site surrounded by trees on three sides. The new owners are so accommodating! The newly remodeled bathhouse and laundry facilities are beautiful! I’d love to come back and stay in one of their new cabins with a fantastic view of the snow capped Sangre De Cristo mountains!
Cañon City, Colorado, offers a fantastic opportunity for cabin camping, surrounded by stunning landscapes and a variety of outdoor activities. Whether you're looking for a cozy retreat or an adventurous getaway, there are several well-reviewed options to choose from.
