Best Equestrian Camping near Castle Rock, CO

This campground has a equestrian area and a tent camping area. The tent camping is to the right after you enter, there are two tent loops with bathrooms. Water spigots next to the bathroom. There are a few trails here, some are horse trails. Overall a beautiful spot with some shade!

This location is in Denver. Cherry Creek State Park has a nice lake, fishing areas, a bike trail looping the entire lake, and several activities. A robust visitors program and center, plus full hook-up spots, make this an easy getaway. The campground is well-treed and sits near the lake. A bike trail connects the campground to the visitors center and beach area (on opposite sides of the road). Picnic areas and fishing-specific areas are found on this side of the lake as well. The campsites offer grass, paved pull-throughs, and big trees. The campground was full while we were there. We attended a program to learn more about the park and enjoyed it. We went swimming at the beach and played in the sand. Several locals spend the day grilling and enjoying the sunshine here. They have a marina that interestingly has sailing lessons and rents boats. Each campsite has a fire ring and table and was raked when we arrived. A large lightening and thunder storm occurred during our visit (not surprising for June). The area is flat, so water pooled around the camper and on the paved roads and brought some crazy clouds. The park trails connect to a trail that leads to Castlewood Canyon State Park in Castle Rock as well (for those who want a good ride). We will be staying here again and enjoying their amenities which include full showers/flush toilets, laundry room, park visitors center (they sell ice cream) and a relaxing "beach" environment in Denver.

My folks bought property you can ride to Indian Creek from. Love this area!!! Lots of beautiful trails, close to Denver and very peaceful. Bring your ponies, its an equestrian campground!

Although it was a quick overnight trip for us, don’t let that be you! It’s we’ll thought out with lots of activity areas like, mountain bike trail, shooting area, off leash dog area, model airfield, equestrian trails, lake and hiking trails! It’s a 4200 acre park with 850 acre reservoir. It’s a destination, really!

Cabins available and horse rings/stables available all over. Reservations needed.

So much to do in this little area-lakes, trails, horses. Very close to red rocks. This is still in town so great for beginners

Close proximity to the highway. Clean level spots. Geared more towards RV camping. Pros: great views of the foothills. Lots of park amenities like horse stables, archery range, swim beach, boat rentals, hiking trails, picnic areas. Con: Orange glow of Home Depot sign at night and no shade during the day. Your camping reservation (strongly recommended) includes park admission.

was just beautiful all the staff was wonderful and made our first in Co wonderful I would deffiantly recommend this place for sure beautiful views the yurt was awsome and we tent camped last night please come visit and see for yourself they have archery, a beach, horse stables and ring, large lake to fish, clean bathrooms and courthouses will stay again if we are ever in co again😁😍❤

Stay here a couple times a year, great amenities and lots to do with a swim beach, shore line, horses, boat ramp and model planes. Model plane field is close to the campground, can hear it early in the morning. D loop is quietest, C loop is electric only so you have to wait in the dump line, and I've found A & B loops to generally be the rowdiest. Recent construction has started of a big housing development right up against the park so get there before you're surrounded by houses!

Indian Creek was pleasant and I would return. Attractive sites available with trees and grass. Most sites are better suited for tents or vans. I was able to fit a 20 ft travel trailer, but there’s only a handful of trailer sites. No hookups. Cell service was zero with ATT and Verizon. We hiked Indian Creek, but it was very hot. You can hike a portion along Bear Creek for a few miles which was the best part. Lots of hikers, mtn bikers, and horses. The camp host did check in and was very helpful and friendly. Good option close to Denver.

Located in the city, but once you’re in the park you don’t feel like you’re in the city at all!!! The RV spots have full hookups and are nice and spacious, as are the neighbors. We were able to set up a tent too! Great place to stroll and relax. Beautiful sunsets. Clean bathrooms and laundry facilities with a little vending machine.

A great place for camping (RV and tent spots), fishing, wildlife/nature viewing, hiking, boating (all water activities), has a swim beach, marina, off leash dog park, shooting range, horse stables that you can do a beautiful hour horseback ride.

FEES: Campsites $41 full hookup, basic campsite $28, daily park pass is $11, annual park pass $83, daily dog park pass $3, annual dog park pass $25, and group camping is available too.

What a great spot to spend the day. Traveled to Colorado from NJ and this is spot is really breathtaking and relaxing.

By far one of the nicest state parks in Colorado. Every site is huge and several pull through are on sides of the hill with sweeping view of Colorado Springs. Nestled up to the Air Force NORAD complex the nature is unspoiled all the way up the mountain. Tons of trails the only sad part is our dogs only have limited trails they are allowed on. Bear, large cats and lots of deer visit regularly (well at least the deer are regular.

Our first visit to Colorado was not a disappointment. The cooler temps (compared to Texas) was a very happy bonus for us. Hot air balloons, geocaching, hiking.... more than enough to keep us busy.

Fairly spread out sites but very little shade. Full hookups but Colorado price increase and state park access fees are nuts! Each site has a concrete parking pad, but for some inexcusable reason they're very NOT level.

This is a nice campground with a good view of the mountain. There are some nice trails from the campground and it’s close to Colorado Springs.

This is a great place right off the interstate and through a cute little town! Close hikes near by including one of Colorado’s 14ers.

Indian Creek is lush and wooded, while still being close to Denver. The drive in is easy, following a paved road most of the way. Great spot for car camping. The Indian Creek trail system is ideal for mountain biking or running, with access to the Colorado Trail running through it as well.

The spots are so private I had my 3 year old pee on trees the whole time. The park is clean (showers were a bit sketch but fine) and honestly a treat to camp in. All spots I saw were pull through. Hands down the best sunset I’ve seen in Colorado so far.

Camp here to hike one of Colorado's most climbed 14ers, Mt. BIERSTADT. This pass can get CROWDED so plan to leave Denver early on a Friday.

Camped here one night as we prepared to leave Colorado for home. The park is in the city, but surprisingly doesn’t feel that way. The place was busy and no privacy between sites. Bathrooms were clean and well kept. There were a few “interesting” characters in the park. Felt like they came here to party and hangout on the weekend. It was a convenient camping experience.
