Best Cabin Camping near Eldorado Springs, CO

General: Many different options: tent sites (with or without hookups), back-in 50/30 amps FHU (with or without patio), Pull-thru 50/30 amps (options include patio and/or hot tub), camping cabins and deluxe cabins. 

Site Quality: All sites are level and have a concrete pad. Although the sites are close together with no privacy between them, there is some separation with a grass strip.

Bath/Shower: Code to enter and clean with soap and paper towels. 

Activities: So many options. My favorite was the half-mile fitness trail that circles the lake. Other activities include mini golf, volleyball, basketball, pickleball, horseshoes, shuffleboard, bike rentals, a fishing pier, a pool, and a nicely appointed playground. 

Other amenities include a library, laundry, train depot, paddle boats, and a small store. 

While this is not our preferred type of camping, it suited our needs for a night en route home, and I loved the gravel fitness trail. It was not high season yet so some things such as the pool and paddle boats were not available, and the campground was not full so it was quieter than it would be on a summer weekend.

On a cross country today trip these were the nicest camping cabins we stayed in. The campground itself is relatively small but with a nice playground and camp store as well as bathroom facilities. You can't beat the view, people and the easy location to go into the downtown. We only had one night here but plan to make a week long trip to the area at another time we liked it so much.

Absolutely STUNNING resort. 3 hot tubs and huge pool. Live music. Spacious sites.

Super nice park with great amenities, especially when your RV is winterized. Two indoor hot tubs and a pool, private showers & changing rooms, and laundry. Just wish there was a dish washing station. Multiple segments of the Colorado trail are accessible right from the park.

We stayed here one night. Spots were ok. Pool and hot tub were closed in July. They didn’t say why. Lots of rules including 7/12 mph speed limit.

Gorgeous views, relaxing and very kind, courteous staff. Dog park, hot tubs, laundry, all you can eat pancakes (very reasonably priced) well worth the so steep drive on way up to 9,000 ft.

This place has everything! Bowling, an amazing pool and hot tubs, super clean facilities, full hookups, rent an airstream or chuckwagon for the weekend, stay in a tiny home - really, there’s so much to do especially for families. Our site (308) had an outdoor kitchen area, nice firepit and chairs, and outdoor table and chairs.

This KOA campground was impressive to me. My bf and I arrived too late to use the hot tub but the showers were clean and spacious. The campground offered pizza and wing delivery! They also offered an all you can eat pancake breakfast for $3 in the morning. Overall we enjoyed our stay, and the women working the main desk were very informative and helpful.

The view from some of the nearby trails were amazing as well, we were lucky enough to enjoy the beautiful day on the trails.

We took our new camper here to get a full service hook up. We didn’t want to worry about anything except the systems in the camper. Later in the season we got a free day of we paid for two days. For a pull through it was only $67+tax per night.

Arcade, restaurant, mini bowling alley (free), playground, dog parks, pool, hiking trails both paved and unpaved, and a general store (our 25’ fresh water hose was too short. Needed about 29’ so it was nice to have a store on property.)

It is a huge place so I would recommend a mode of transportation like a bike. I have an electric skateboard which was perfect.

COVID shut the hot tubs down but they have them. One of the restaurants was closed either for COVID or that it was later in the season.

While we plan on camping mainly off the grid it was a real nice glamping getaway.

And in fact I believe they were KOA of the year 2023 or 2024. More expensive than we're used to, but has nice amenities. Sites level with concrete pads, fairly large. Some space between with trees. Nice metal patio furniture provided at each site(chairs, table, fire pit). Has decent showers, hot tubs, and off leash dog park. Inexpensive pancake breakfast and pizza/wings to your site are available, also an onsite store. Kind of at the top of a rise, so good views but also kind of chilly for July (60s/40s). Massive thunderstorms with hail and heavy rain two evengings (CO mountains tend to get afternoon t-storms). Communicate via text to let you know about goings on. Good radio station out of Idaho Springs KYGT 102.7 and 103.9

We got into Estes Park on a Friday night with plans to stay elsewhere but those fell through. Luckily, Elk Meadow Lodge and RV Park had spots open for us! The park itself is lovely, well maintained and a spectacular view of Long's Peak. Facilities were very nice and clean. Hot tub and pool were wonderful for days after hikes. They had live music and drinks on the weekends, plus free pancakes in the morning on Sunday! The price was a bit steep but we loved it so much we sucked it up and stayed longer than expected (plus it's Estes Park, what do you expect?). The staff there was probably some of the nicest staff I've seen at an RV park - very kind and helpful. One of our favorite places to stay (since there aren't many options for dispersed camping in the area).

Your up at 8890’ at this KOA. Wind your way up a nice but steep four lane road to this campground! We stayed in a big rig stop. Concrete slab, full hook ups. Was below freezing at night so we didn’t leave the water connected at night but the days were a pleasant 60-65 but the wind did come up several days and it was chilly. Very nice new composite patio furniture and fire pit and gas grill to use! The areas in between spaces have large enough rocks to cause some tripping issues while hooking up. Watch your step.

Nice bathrooms two large hot tubs and 6 washing machines and dryers @ $2 a load for each.

Nice staff and gift shop with beer and liquor and most needs. They had just opened for the season and have pizza available but we didn’t try it!

If you like to gamble there are a plethora of casino s just a few miles down the valley in Central City.

West side Denver approx 25 miles on I-70

Wow! This is like the Disneyland of campgrounds.

As of July 2020 this campground still has some construction and development happening in the immediate area.

PROS This place has it all! Pool, hot tubs, bar/restaurant, general store, arcade, mini bowling alleys, lake for paddle boarding, access to fishing on the Colorado River. Views are beautiful and a very easy drive from Denver. Staff is super friendly and helpful.

We booked on a package and received a golf cart included in our stay. Glad we had the golf cart, as the resort is quite large. Kids enjoyed activities - popsicle eating contest, t-shirt tie dye, and donut decorating. They also loved the clean and well-lit basketball courts.

Lots to do close-by but we never left the property. So many fun things to do right here. RV spaces are nicely sized and we enjoyed being right next to the water. Fire pits and picnic tables in great condition.

CONS If you like a budget campground, this isn’t the place. You are paying for all the amenities and the price tag reflects it. It’s a very large place so if you are looking for isolation, you’d be disappointed. All that said, we felt it was worth the money and weren’t bothered by other people because we had so much fun.

OVERALL Bring your kids here! They won’t want to leave! Come for at least a few nights, if able, so you can make the most of it. I can’t wait to come back.

     This is a KOA you come to stay a while. There's LOADS of stuff to do for kids & there are a LOT of kids who visit with their parents. Bounce house, jumping pillow, inflatable slide, basketball, shuffle board, pickleball, fishing, paddleboats in the shape of a swan/dragon/flamingo, a pool AND splashpad. There's a cute train that takes kids & parents through the campground. This is kid paradise & there's a lot of them on bikes & running around the campground.

       There was just my husband & I camping here. My husband enjoyed the catch & release fishing. Fishing was good according to him. I liked the hiking trail around the pond. We were able to have a fire. Our site was on the end, close to the bathroom. It was the site I had talked to the reservation line lady, so I was happy. Two of the sites actually had hot tubs! For more money of course.  

    The problems- I received a text the morning of our arrival saying if we needed anything to text& they'd get back to us. I had a question about directions to the KOA, since they said on the email not to use GPS. I texted around 9am & NEVER got a response. EVER! They continued to text me throughout the stay for this & that.

    We should have followed the GPS directions, since the way the KOA took us was through town & was completely nerve wracking.

    The staff was courteous, but not really friendly. Asked for some area info. Staff member said they had a rack with info. A small table top one with restaurants. She also had a tear off map of Fort Collins which was helpful. Seemed put out that I asked. 

     The bathrooms turned out to be 5 unisex toilet/shower combos, which are pretty inconvenient when you need to poop  & all of them are taken by people showering. There are 3 other restrooms in the KOA, but we only used the one by site 84. The bathrooms seemed to always need attention. I think the employees needed to visit more than once a day. Not really KOA clean.

This camp ground has the best view!. We have camped in Colorado for over 15 years. By far the campsites with the best views! And you can rent cabins too. Just love this place. Lake gets busy In the summer. But still worth if you can get a reservation.

Breckenridge Colorados premier all season resort. Full service RV sites or mountain chalets (cabins) await you near Breckenridge Ski Resort, Copper Mountain, Keystone, A-Basin and Vail.

Best place to camp in Estes Park/Northern Colorado! Wooded sites mean privacy from your neighbors and shade during the day. Vault toilets are very clean, well kept. Staff and Rangers are very friendly and helpful, very knowledgeable about the area. Other reviews mention only 3.2 alcohol, but that rule has changed! ;) Great Hiking and Views, we watched the fireworks for 4th of July in Estes from one of the trails. Large bear boxes fit 2+ coolers. It was full for the holiday week/end, but staff mentioned that there's usually a lot of availability during the week. Have stayed in the cabins in years past, they are nice with gas fireplace for heat, and gas cookers in the cabin. No bedding, but beds are large and soft. 

Gorgeous sunsets, so close to Estes and Rocky Mountain National Park. Hidden Gem in a busy tourist town!!

There are community fire pits, stocked trout pond, access to the river, acres of woodland, and Colorado’s smallest bar! We love the vibe at AVR and the owners are amazing. Occassionally you can catch live music and there are several historic buildings they are restoring. We have a few friends that don’t camp which is okay because they also offering glamping, tipis, cabins, and a lodge. Trust me... one stay and you’ll be booking another one soon after!
