    Greenhorn Meadows Park

    Small Campground

    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. There is a laundry room and dump station. Not sure if the dump is included as the sign says $10 if your staying here or $15 if your a guest. Most of the other campers here look like they are parked long term, some of them had large dogs on run chains, but over all it was super quiet. I would stay here again if I was in the area.

    Greenhorn Meadows Park

    It’ll do in a pinch

    Like other reviewers, we tried to get a first come/first served spot up in San Isabel NP but were too late. 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. We set up in site 20, which actually was very spacious and more private than a lot of the others. Plenty of trees, a small creek, and trails. Woke up to an 8-point deer munching in the bushes. Cons- -some traffic noise -no toilet nearby, but a clean shower house was available for use a short drive away. -camp has a lot of litter on site Otherwise it was a good experience.

    Pueblo South-Colorado City KOA

    Nice 1 night stay

    There’s 2 KOA’s in Pueblo, so heads up. I drove past this one thinking I was staying at the one on the north end of town. We stayed one night and it has a cool little playground for the kids, a little dog park for your dogs and full hookups, which is nice. The people at check-in are great, and they have someone drive out to your site with you, which is very nice. The sites are right on top of each other, so if you have a neighbor you can’t open your awning, and you’re close to the highway.

    Haggards RV Campground

    One of Our Favorites!

    We've been staying at this campground for several years as we travel between Arizona and Wyoming. The owners are so helpful, and the park is immaculate. Fantastic views, country feel, and safe. There's a seasonal pool, walking trails and a HUGE fenced dog park. Most spots are pull thru, and it's worth the short, easy drive from I-25.

    The Pine Lodge

    Veterans with Service Dogs feel unwelcome

    As I start this, the manager Crystal is a very polite and wanting to make your stay is comfortable. The high point of my stay.

    If I was told sooner that my service dog was just considered a pet to the owners, I would have canceled my trip to here. It was three days when one of the owners made what I consider as a put down of me as well as my service dog. If I was told sooner than the three days, I would have canceled my trip all together and gladly lose only $20, instead if I canceled on that day I would have lost nearly $450.

    Ask any veteran if their service dog is only a pet. For those who do not realize this, but a veteran and their service dog is just one entity. The service dog being considered a pet is like telling someone with an artificial limb if that part of the vet is a"pet". The service dog is a part of the veteran and has specific duties to that veteran and is trained to do those duties to assist the veteran.

    My service dog has 8 specific jobs to help me live my life, he is never to be considered just a"pet" as I had been told. This is sent out to my brothers and sisters on just how unwanted we are going here, as well as The Lodge@ San Isabel Lake and Aspen Acres.

    Realistically, all I wanted was some sort of acknowledgement that it was an honest mistake in saying that, but when there is silence that screams louder than what words could ever say.

    Great Sand Dunes Oasis

    Amazing stay with views of the Dunes!

    We loved this camp site! It was our first time to tent camp in Colorado and it was great. Several sites to choose from. Some have views of the dunes, some are more secluded. Bathrooms were clean. Very spacious tent site with a fire pit. Our tent sleeps 6 and we had no trouble fitting in the spot.

    Haggards RV Campground

    Unexpected Gem

    We don't usually stay at RV parks, but we really enjoyed our over night stay at Haggard's RV Park. My wife called it an unexpected gem. Nancy, the owner, was very welcoming and set the tone for the visit. She suggested some sites and we found one that was perfect for us with beautiful views across the prairie to the mountains and a spectacular sunset to boot. Nancy came around offering ice at one point and, later, watermellon. There is a nice dog park on-site. In fact, the best we've seen while traveling. Our older greyhound, who usually just follows us, actually did a few laps. Nancy's attention to detail was evident in the way she decorated the bathhouse to create a more personal, at-home feel. Haggard's is on our list of campgrounds to return to in the future.
