Great packed road into the camp. We stayed in November and had the place to ourselves. Lots of sites. We stayed back near the end of the camping area and had a beautiful sunrise and sunset.
6 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Full hookup RV sites with 50 amp service are available throughout the region surrounding Cimarron, Colorado. Garden of the Gods RV Resort in Colorado Springs operates year-round with big-rig friendly sites and complete hookups including water, sewer, and electric connections. Diamond Campground & RV Park in Woodland Park offers seasonal camping from May through September with spacious pull-through sites that accommodate larger motorhomes. Clear Creek RV Park in Golden provides 50 amp electrical service but doesn't accommodate big rigs, making it better suited for smaller travel trailers and Class B or C motorhomes. Pikes Peak RV Park features 54 sites with both 30 and 50 amp hookups in Manitou Springs. "The sites are big enough to pull a sizable rig into, though they are not pull-through sites," noted one RV traveler about camping options in the area.
Summer and fall represent peak seasons for RV camping in this region, with many parks requiring reservations weeks in advance. Most RV parks maintain clean shower facilities and on-site laundry, though amenities vary significantly between locations. Cell service can be spotty in mountain locations, with better connectivity at parks closer to Colorado Springs and Denver. Pet policies generally allow dogs with standard leash requirements, though some parks impose breed or size restrictions. Dump stations are available at all the major RV parks, with Colorado Springs KOA and Falcon Meadow RV Campground providing year-round access to sanitary dump facilities. Navigation to some mountain RV parks requires careful planning as steep grades and tight turns can challenge larger motorhomes, particularly those over 36 feet in length.

Great packed road into the camp. We stayed in November and had the place to ourselves. Lots of sites. We stayed back near the end of the camping area and had a beautiful sunrise and sunset.
Affordable, basic living. Mostly full time so openings are usually on a waiting list.
Nice large park. Spaces are not level so bring blocks. Bathrooms and showers are clean but out dated. Laundry facilities is available at $3 per wash and $2.50 per dry.
Bathrooms were very nice and clean. Lots of sites with minimal privacy. Pretty packed and noisy in October. Our site had electrical hookups and its own water. Picnic tables and fire rings available as well. Looks like a very family friendly campground. Stayed one night.
Lake Wellington is a beautiful family and dog friendly campground just about 90 minutes from Denver. There are 75 sites, and even when it's pretty full they are decently spaced out that you don't feel too on top of other guests. We brought our dogs and a group of friends and had a great few nights, even seeing Bald Eagles mating!
Not the nicest but the owners have helped me out a lot.
I want to start on a positive because that is the type of person I am, and because this review is going to have a lot of negative. This park is a great location for sightseeing, especially if you are going to Pikes Peak by way of the Cog or shopping in Manitou. My GM and I worked hard to make the park as great as we could with the very little funding that we got. As seen in the reviews we had excellent customer service and had high standards for keeping the park clean. I was very good at my job and I loved doing the work until the new owners took over. When the park was sold, we had high hopes that the new owners would be good people and want to put real work into the park. We were very disappointed that they turned out to be money grubbing horrible people. Ken, one of the owners, treats people and his business very Trump like. He and his wife must state that they are religious more than a few times when having a conversation; I personally think this is to make themselves look good to cover the toxicity that truly lies under the surface. When they meet people, they put on a façade and lie and say whatever they think people want to hear to get what they want; proven to me by the broken verbal promises they made to me. They are not community driven; they are money driven; you can make money and still be good people, but they chose not to be. They practice wage theft just like big corporations by over working employees and under paying them; in their words“you must wear all hats”. They are the type of people that use others until they don’t need them then throw them away like garbage. I was bullied into quitting on a phone call where Ken was very disrespectful and unprofessional with me. The phone call was me trying to explain that I could no longer do the FB post due to our deferent ethical viewpoints, and he would not let me talk by saying“you are not doing your job, are you going to quit” repeatedly. I found out that I was not allowed to post about Manitou Pride parade because he said,“it is not family friendly, and the company and I do not promote the LGBTQ+ community”. I am a proud member of that community and so I should not be the one to post on FB for the company. The groundman quit a day later because of disrespect and broken verbal promises. Then a few days later my boyfriend was fired and then Sheryl the GM was fired.(I believe they were fired for retaliation) Ken only wants employees that are easy to exploit or controlled, because he is incapable of managing people without fear and bullying. He boasted that he is called the grim reaper in business, but I don’t think that is the flex he thinks it is. But yes, he was the destruction of the community we put so much work into. I also want to voice my disappointment in Dana, who Sheryl worked hard getting to be allowed to come back as an employee. Dana did great work her first summer with us, so it was a shock to see her true colors show when she started to brown nose Ken. She spread multiple rumors, I feel the worst one was about Melinda’s daughter and the things she wrote about in her diary. I also did not like how she used David, the guy that does the golfcart tours in Manitou, was nice to his face then talked so badly about him when he was not around. I truly think Jesue and her father would be ashamed of her for how she acted to get her new position.
If you are going to camp at a lakefront spot definitely have something you can sit in else you will be attacked by flies. Super quiet during the week - got busy over the weekend.
Our Campsite was nice, very clean and well kept. It did seems like the sites were a bit to close together and every spot filled. Pads were level, area around the picnic table spacious. Pit toilets were clean. The dump station was very nice and easy to use. We were driving down through Colorado to view the Fall Aspen leaves. I wish we would have stayed longer at this campsite. We stayed at the Conifer Ridge loop site 46 ...

Elevation Considerations: Most campgrounds in this region sit at higher elevations, which affects both temperatures and physical comfort. "It was warmer than mountain sites by 15-20°," noted a camper at Applewood RV Resort, highlighting the temperature differences between Denver-area and mountain parks.

"After getting setup I found out that I'd need to climb up the short retaining wall into my neighbors site to hookup our water hose," reported one RVer who encountered a shared water hookup, adding that "the spigot was shared between our sites."
Water Pressure Management: Bring a pressure regulator for hookup sites. "Be sure to have a water pressure regulator or you'll come back to a flooded RV," warned a camper staying at an RV park, highlighting an important equipment consideration for protecting your vehicle.
