Best RV Parks & Resorts near Copper Mountain, CO

Several established RV campgrounds surround the Copper Mountain region of Colorado with diverse amenities and settings. Tiger Run RV Resort near Breckenridge provides full-service RV sites with 50-amp electric, water, and sewer hookups on maintained grounds. Middlefork RV Resort in Fairplay accommodates large motorhomes with pull-through sites and offers year-round operation. "Our site (30) was difficult to level our travel trailer due to left/right slope," noted one visitor at a nearby campground. Sun Outdoors Rocky Mountain in Granby features big-rig friendly sites with full hookups, and Sugar Loafin' RV Campground in Leadville provides electric, water and sewer connections with picnic tables at each site.

Mountain elevation affects camping conditions throughout the area, with temperatures dropping significantly at night even during summer months. Most RV parks require reservations during peak seasons, particularly July through September when facilities reach capacity by Thursday afternoons. Navigating to some campgrounds involves steep mountain roads with tight turns unsuitable for larger motorhomes without adequate power. Dump stations are available at most parks, though some smaller facilities may offer limited or no shower facilities. Cellular service varies significantly by location and provider, with many campgrounds in valleys experiencing limited coverage. Pet policies generally allow dogs with standard leash requirements, and firewood is typically available for purchase on-site at most established RV parks.

    Denver West-Central City KOA

    Mountain High

    Yes Mountain High!! 8100’ high. 7 miles off I-70 at Idaho Springs. 25 miles into outskirts of Denver. Don’t worry they have oxygen! Not kidding!!

    Nice campground, friend staff, laundry, fun little gift shop with some food stuffs, beer and liquor. Pizza cooked there but we didn’t try it.

    Our space was a big rig space on concrete pad with ample seating, a table, a fire pit, and a propane grill stove… use you own propane! Full hook ups. It was still reaching freezing at night and so we didn’t hook up our water.

    Gore Creek Campground

    So good, I don’t want to tell you about it.

    Gore Creek Campground is a true gem of the National Forest Service. If you are looking for a great boondocking location that is close to great trails and breathtaking views, this just might be the place for you. The entrance to the campground is ~2 miles off of I-70 Exit 180 on Bighorn Road. Only 10 minutes from Vail Village and 25 minutes from Frisco.

    We stayed in Site #8, which provided plenty of room for our 22’ travel trailer and pickup. The sites each have a large picnic table and fire ring.

    Pit toilets are spread through the campground and were very clean and well maintained. The campground hosts do a great job of keeping everything tidy and looking great. They also have bundles of firewood for sale for $7 at their site just inside the entrance to the campground.

    I can’t say enough about this place. It’s probably my favorite spot to camp in Colorado. I almost didn’t post this review for fear of the secret getting out.

    Difficult Campground

    Views For Days!!!

    So much of Colorado is impressive, let me just start with that. I wanted to swing through Aspen to check out the John Denver Sanctuary before heading to Denver and found the Difficult Campground on a listing for the area.

    Like many campgrounds in Colorado, facilities are limited in fall and winter as they prepare for cold weather. The campground itself was no exception. CLOSED! I was so upset, however I stumbled upon a ranger in the area and he said I could stay if I parked and walked in from the entrance and would not have access to toilets.

    Seemed fair, backcountry style camping with some amenities like a fire ring and table. I thought Indeed it would be a winning experience!! Boy was a right!!

    The river flows alongside the campground and makes for such a relaxing sound throughout the evening. I saw several small animals as I hiked in, mostly squirrels, birds and a small fox.

    The tree coverage of the area cut the wind in the evening just enough. I had the campground to myself and it was one of the coolest feelings ever!

    There was no cell service at the campground.

    I had to bring in my own small firewood because they discourage you from foraging for fallen branches at the campgrounds typically. I have seen that during the regular season there is a small store that has firewood available near the entrance area.

    I look forward to getting back to this site during the summer season!!

    TIPS:

    • Bring your own firewood. While sometimes it is available in the area, you will want to bring your own just in case to make sure you are keeping it in the fire ring.

    • Check the website first. I was looking online at this campsite and discovered if they have weather related closings or fire bans they list them very vividly on their site which can be very helpful in helping you determine if you would like to stay here.

    FR 48 Dispersed Camping

    Awesome spot with beautiful mountain and forest views and close to a lake

    We pulled in around 4pm on a Sunday. We went to the 3rd dirt road on the left to find a spot available. Only one other camper was there and the area could easily accommodate 4 without being too close to each others. Very easy to find. To the north Turquoise Lake is 1/2 mile away. There are mountain bike /hiking trails everywhere around the lake. Even though the space we were in was very spacious it felt secluded and we really could not see the other RV. We pulled our 40 feet toy hauler easily. The spot was leveled and clean. A stone fire pit was there and lots of wood had been left by the previous campers.

    Prospector Campground

    Amazing! But tight for big rigs!

    OMG! What a beautiful campground. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it for big rigs. We have a 38' Class A and it was tight. Got in a out safely, but I think it all depends on the site you pick. Site 39C was awesome, private, secluded, couldn't see any neighbors. We were able to pull the Class A in forward and easily back it out upon exiting. Simple walk to the Reservoir, with hiking & biking all around. We'd love to return, but won't until we downsize!

    White River National Forest Heaton Bay Campground

    Great Local Campground

    Very close to home. Lake Dillon Res is cold water. Always, even in July and August. Were at about 9000 feet, weather can change rapidly, and forecasters can be wrong. Be prepared for all 4 seasons. It can snow in July. No lie.

    Update on getting in water, it is open seasonally. When allowed, you can try to swim and get into the lake. Very short season that this is available.

    The ski resorts listed are NOT open year round. There is "shoulder" or "mud" season as we call it, where the resorts close, the restaurants close, shops, everything on the mountain stops. Towns still are fully open. But not the base of the ski resorts.

    Only Reservoir in lower 48 with Arctic Char. Also have Kokanee Salmon. In addition to many species of trout. Lake, Rainbow, and Brown.

    Lots of space in campground. Our usual spot has trees still and cover. Helps when it gets windy. Access to lake is great. Clean and up kept. It can be beautiful but chilly for most folks. Can even shore up boats in certain camp sites.

    Lake is extremely low this season (2019) and camp will be further away from any water access.
