"My relatives live in nearby Trinidad, Pueblo, and Colorado Springs. This site is convenient to all three."
"Although placed next to the highway the campground is relatively quiet. Everyone is respectful of other campers. The staff are friendly and helpful. Amenities are accurately described."
"Its as small Campground outside Colorado City. There electric hook ups at your site; however the water is across the path and you need to port it to your rig."
"We found GMP in Colorado City and was told they never turn away a tenter. There are a number of spots aligned below a bluff, and a large open field for additional tents."
$36 / night
"This was first camping trip staying in a Colorado State park and it was great! We had an electric only back-in site next to the bathhouse which was clean and had 4 separate bathrooms with showers."
"We were visiting a friend in Pueblo and this place was close by. (Downtown Pueblo has a really nice riverwalk. Found a free museum that honored Medal of Honor recipients.)"

"The family has property in Colorado city and we still love to come to local mountain! Great fishing, clean, quiet, & plenty of space"
"We lucked out on a first come-first served spot on a Friday - spot #10 is tent only, by a creek and several private trails. The camp was quiet with a vault toilet nearby."

"My husband was a little concerned when we left the highway for a dirt county road, but his concerns quickly changed as we enjoyed the beauty and wonder of the Colorado mountains!"
"Large area to park away from others!"

"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"

"Loved the setting and the short walk to Lake Isabel as well as the empty picnic area across the creek."
"The sites are a little close together and positioned so it you have a trailer where your awning comes out is in direct view of the other campers. Also we brought our kayaks to enjoy the Lake."
$25 / night
"Arrived around 2 on a Saturday in the middle of August without reservations.. The camp takes reservations and there's a lady that comes around regularly to check registration/ enforce check out time."
"There is only one hand pump near sites 6/7 that takes forever to get water from, but does work (it was easier just to get water from the stream to put out the campfire than use the pump)."
$25 / night
"We probably had the worst walk-in site, distance wise. A long walk with all of our stuff. We'll chose a different one next time. All-in-all, it's a great clean CG with an attentive host."
"Great camping spot just south of Colorado Springs. The views were amazing of all the tall, gorgeous aspen trees and we were right by the creek which at night was so very peaceful to fall asleep too."
ScoutGreat options for tent or RV sites. The views alone are a spiritual experience. Kind hosts provide a community feel to their campground. I highly recommend experiencing this!!
GuideWe selected this location because it got so many great reviews. I don't expect perfection in dispersed locations but, I was pretty disappointed in the quality of the established areas. They were very difficult to level our smallish travel trailer and perhaps that is the problem. We were one of very few travel trailers on this road. On the other hand, the views were beyond incredible and for that alone I would use this location for an overnight stay again.
TravelerStayed for the weekend, found a place tucked back away from the road and felt completely secluded from the world. No service, no noise, just the sound of the creek and an occasional car driving by. There is a lot of biting flies so bring bug spray if you plan to camp! Gets warm during the day but it does get pretty cold at night
TravelerLove this campground. Sharing a bunch of campsite photos. Sites 1-10 are designated for RVs and tents, and sites 11-23 are tent-only. The camp host was great and nice. We had one RV that ran a generator all night the first night, but the camp host spoke to them, and they did not do it the second night.
TravelerWe found an amazing camp site that was down a slope. We parked up top and lugged everything down the slope. It was tough but so worth it. There was 5 different camp site areas at the bottom right next to the water. The worst and only bad part was the insane amount of biting flies. It was unbearable at times and our dogs were very stressed from them all over them. Bring those fly bags that attract them away from you unless you’re prepared to get eaten up by the flies. The bathrooms were a bit of a drive from our site. They are nothing lavish (bring sanitizing wipes) but they were nice for the kids who weren’t comfortable going outside. The site is easy to find because it has a wooden fence in front to warn not to take motorized vehicles down the slope. We took a cavas wagon for the heavy items and let it roll backwards down the slope with the help of two people. Not easy but Highly worth the hard work as you’re secluded from the road and have a lot of tree coverage for hot days. Also great to utilize this if you have young children who like to wander. We didn’t have to worry about them being near the roads.
GuideI liked this for a one night visit. Close to the Royal Gorge near Canyon, CO. Primitive with vault toilets for each loop (2). Vault toilets were in decent shape. There are no water stations in the campground. You have to bring your own water.
ScoutI can't speak for the park itself being that I didn't have the opportunity to stay there. My review is for my breakdown situation and trying to cancel it. Traveling to Cody Wy, my airstream axle broke and I barely made it to Cody. I took it into a rv repair shop and it was established that I needed a new one. They were 3 to 8 weeks ordering time so I am still currently stranded in Cody. The first thing I did was call the five reservations that I had made to cancel them. All but Mountaindale honored it even with similar cancelation policies. My breakdown happened on a Tuesday and my reservation was for the following Sunday. I emailed Mountaindale the rv shop name and phone number where the rv was for verification. As devastating as this is, this added insult to injury to an already bad situation. I get it that policy is policy but also the owner has no sympathy for people's misfortunes. Again, the other four reservations(KOA, another Campspot affiliated and two others) canceled and gave me full refunds.(Like any compassionate company would do)
RangerThe reception staff was extremely friendly and the amenities are clean and well maintained.
TravelerGreat spots available- plenty of room for multiple campsites along the road. Great views! - BUT mosquitoes were absolutely awful so be prepared (mid July)
