Best RV Parks & Resorts near Coalmont, CO

Stayed 3 nights in early September in A loop with 30A service. Each sight had a covered picnic table where I stashed the bikes from the elements. Water spigots provide a sight for container water but not RV hook-up. A bike/walking trail of about 1.1 miles through the trees and near the river was very nice, doing several loops. My brother caught a 16" rainbow which provided supper one night. The grounds are well cared for and sights are nicely spaced. This was our second stay here in 13 months. We will return!

This is an older park that is staying open during the 2021 winter season for the first time. It is your typical RV Park with as many sites as possible packed in. But there is grass between each site, a concrete patio and gravel level sites. Picnic tables as well. Some sites are right on the creek, but don't have views of the mountains. There are lots of pull thru sites. Our site #62 was a back-in so the big windshield of our Class A had an amazing view of mountains. RMNP, Beaver Meadows entrance is only 2 miles. There is a bathhouse with showers and a 2nd bathhouse without showers. Water, electricity and sewer is at each site. 2 bull elk were hanging out at our site one day.. The bug herd was just down the street.. there was also a muke deer herd with a big buck hanging out just down the street. It's pretty quiet. The people were super friendly and accommodating. There is propane onsite. Wifi is pretty darn good. It is a Good Sam's property. The water pressure could be a lot better. The restrooms are dated. The shower took a while to heat up and the room was a little chilly. We would definitely

Let me preface this by saying this is the first review I have ever written, but I feel compelled to share because of how horribly rude these people are. The worst experience we've had at an RV Park in almost two years of full time travel. We originally booked 3 nights in the Circle/Meadow Full Hook Up Sites. Then, we booked in the office for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday in the RV Overflow Lot as we are fully self contained with a large solar set up, and plenty of water. Additionally, we booked the following Friday and Saturday in full hooks up. On Tuesday afternoon, we received a knock on the door from a then-unidentified pair(later identified as the property managers). They were irate, and very angrily informed us that were not allowed to stay in the overflow lot. We explained that we had paid, but were told that it was intended for storage only(definitely was not a storage facility, however). At this point, we tried to apologize and say that there had been a misunderstanding and we were happy to leave. We've traveled to over 46 states and stayed in plenty of these overflow lots, and so we had assumed that was what we were paying for. Additionally, none of the policies we signed in person or listed on their website stated otherwise. However, they continued to be rude, and yelled that we needed to leave the property and that we could receive a refund for our stay. No problem, we're happy to leave- fully understanding that there was a miscommunication(on their end, given we can't be expected to know their policies when not told them). After leaving, we get a call from Alec Buns at corporate stating they will be charging us for a full hook up site even though we did not have full hook ups, and did not utilize any of the amenities in the campground. We again tried to explain that there was a misunderstanding, we left with no fuss, and just wanted our money back. He refused to have a conversation with us, stating repeatedly that he would"not be negotiating" and the"buck stops with him." We have never, in our two+ years of travel, had such a negative experience with such incredibly rude people. An embarrassment to campers everywhere.

This camp ground has it all, nice clean bathrooms, with showers, blow dryers ect. There are camp sites for the RV camper with full hook ups, to nice level sites for the extreme Tent camper with pick nick tables and BBQ grills. The camp ground has a small store for grocery/miscellaneous camping supplies, that opens early and stays open later than most! This camp ground was reasonably priced, the staff friendly and helpful, and best of all was very clean and accommodating for all camper types! The camp ground had a map with a list of activities to do there, and places to go shopping, and places of interest! The drive through the canyon to the camp ground is unforgettably beautiful!!

Good Sam discount CO RV Parks are all more on the expensive side, but Elk Meadow is on the lower end of those around them. Great access to the RMNP(5 mins max!), as well as to downtown. Beautiful views of Longs Peak! Nearest grocery is close(5 miles away). Elk occasionally pass thru the front area which was really cool! There is also a little area next to the RV park where I think they park stored vehicles and it's a great place to walk. It's dirt, but about the size of a track. 

GUEST SERVICES= great customer service! Friendly staff anytime I went into the office; they shuffled around to accommodate out extended stay on the spot so we wouldn't have to relocate and could stay at our site the whole time we were in town. We appreciated that! 

WIFI/ CELL SERVICE= provided, but not reliable. We used our AT&T hotspot the entire time bc we work remote. Cell service was 4 bars and worked fine in the entire campground. 

LAUNDRY: Not the cleanest laundry room we've been too, but it worked. There was a soap and water station in the laundry I used to wipe down the inside of the washer(by the chlorox holder) before using. The trashcan always seemed to be overflowing with lent and trash, but again, clean enough. 

SITE: Wide roads and turns; easy to navigate throughout the campground; quiet; picnic table; spacious, no shade, needed levels on one side of our RV; dirt roads throughout so, unless it rained, it was very dusty and so we didn't open our windows as much as we wanted with the fresh mountain air. When it rained and calmed down the dust, then it was perfect to open the windows.

Overall, great RV park.

The negatives:

Spaces are a bit tight—with sewer running into your neighbors sites. Sewer is placed poorly (uphill and far away from sewer tanks) with water and sewer lines running over each other.

Only one shower house, a bit uphill and far from sites. Only cold to mildly warm water in the women’s shower (which is too cold in CO.)

Site not level

Positives:

Full hookups!

Location is minutes from the Rockies, with many views of peaks. Lots of wildlife close by—it will be surprising if you don’t see elk staying here.

Staff really communicative, friendly and helpful.

WiFi was pretty consistent

ATT & Verizon phone service

Despite cold shower water, bathrooms are very nice.

Utilized laundry (office has quarters, if needed.) and it worked well.

Overall, a great stay—I would highly recommend. We decided the day we were supposed to leave that we wanted to extend our stay and the office was really gracious and helpful.

Very close to the entrance of Estes, nice Mountain View’s, and Large clean bathrooms. However, Spruce Lake tries to charge for everything possible: $90 per night, 5.50 for laundry (washer ate our money 3x, they sent maintenance but someone else was in office complaining when we left). We paid $25 for a late checkout so I could finish my workday and when we checked out they stopped us and charged for a second day anyways. Unfortunately, the staff were fairly unfriendly, No fire pits, no external fires, and no privacy between sites.

Might be good for a family with miniature golf and tiny swimming pool but not a good option if you want to hangout around camp and 2x more expensive vs any other RV resort we stayed at during our one month trip.

I have no pictures of the campground to share because there were none worth taking.

I’ve been camping for 30 years and this was by far the most disappointing c experience of my life between the old sites, zero privacy, and feeling like we were going to get charged $$ every time we turned around.

This park was quiet & has a river running through it we booked in advance & got a spot on the river Site # 41 with full hook up and cable. It's a tight spot but worked for us we have a 22' Travel trailer. Verizon cell got 3 bars yet no wifi.  Had some great neighbors enjoyed sitting by the river with them.  There is a small laundry room there and restrooms. They had an Ice cream social one day it was good. We had Elk & deer in the campground which is nice to see. There is a good burger place close by across from the gas station.

Close to Rocky Mountain NP, Estes Park Lake & town. This lake is great for Kayaking & fishing. Saw several Eagles every time we were there. we could have gone to see fireworks their but we hear it's packed & just don't have that in us. 

Estes Park town is packed you have to have lots of patients to drive through it & try to shop.

This is only about 90 mins from the front range and it’s amazing!

The views from most of the sites are phenomenal! And most sites have lake front views.

The beach is surprisingly not over crowded despite it being a full campsite.

The camp sites where a bit tight and open but that’s probably why the views were so amazing.

Facilities were all excellently maintained. And camp hosts even had fire wood for sale at the site.

Not to buggy when we went in June ( which as someone mosquitoes like that’s really important to me)!

Decent cell service for camping.

Great for SUP, and fishing.

The cons - while camp hosts are super friendly and maintain a great site, they were super lax on quiet hours. We were lucky enough to camp next to generator Jim who had his generator running all gosh darn night.

I was surprised with how much noise could be heard from the highway. It’s wasn’t disruptive but it wasn’t serene.

There aren’t many full hook ups, and the ones we saw with hook ups didn’t have great views

Family friendly campground at the end of a quiet road near RMNP. Quiet, no generators heard as big rigs won’t fit! Tents, vans, car camping and camper trailers fit well. Clean bathrooms, hot showers, friendly hosts, ice and fire wood for sale. Big playground and not crazy expensive.

Great little RV park in State Forest State Park. Small pond nearby and beautiful hiking around the campground. Take lots of bug spray, the mosquitoes are everywhere

Typical RV park like campground. Sites close together, no privacy. I arrived on a Thursday evening, it was full. Many large family groups in sites next to each other. The roads are the red sandy dirt so that is tracked all over especially when it rains. No cell service but there is Wi-Fi at the marina.
