    SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

    Several campgrounds and resorts near Fairplay, Colorado provide furnished cabin rentals with varying amenities. Middlefork RV Resort offers pet-friendly cabins with electricity and heating systems suitable for year-round use. Mueller State Park features rental cabins with electrical hookups, picnic tables, and fire rings, with access to nearby water spigots and shower facilities. According to one visitor, "There are even a few cabins for rental. What makes this park great is the huge trail system, trails are all around and all at various levels of difficulties and lengths." Most cabins include basic furniture, beds, and some form of climate control, though amenities vary significantly between locations.

    Rustic log cabins and more modern units are available throughout the region, with options ranging from simple one-room structures to multi-bedroom family accommodations. Tiger Run RV Resort near Breckenridge provides higher-end cabin rentals with full utilities including water, electricity, and sewer hookups, plus access to resort amenities like hot tubs and laundry facilities. Sugar Loafin' Campground in Leadville offers cabin camping with more modest amenities but maintains a 4.6-star rating for its clean facilities and mountain views. One reviewer noted their cabin had "a kitchen and small couch area, a campfire area too," making it suitable for extended stays. Advance reservations are essential during summer months when cabins book quickly.

    Most cabin rentals provide beds with mattresses but require guests to bring their own linens, pillows, and towels. Kitchen facilities vary widely, from basic counters with microwaves to fully equipped kitchens with refrigerators and stovetops. Visitors should check specific cabin listings for cooking equipment, as many locations require campers to bring their own cookware, dishes, and utensils. Firewood is typically available for purchase on-site at locations like Mueller State Park and Arrowhead Point Resort. The town of Fairplay has grocery stores and supply shops for additional provisions, though stocking up before arrival is recommended for more remote cabin locations.

      Mueller State Park Campground

      Great Amenities

      We love this CG!  It is in a beautiful part of Colorado, centrally located to many attractions.  The CG itself is large, but spread out well.  All sites are paved and fairly level, all have electricity and there are even a few cabins for rental.  What makes this park great is the huge trail system, trails are all around and all at various levels of difficulties and lengths.  Wildlife is abundant and the sites themself are well maintained.  Each site has a fire ring, electrical hook up and picnic table.  Water spigots are nearby, RV dump is included with stay (and you can fill up with fresh water too).  They have a laundromat and shower house as well as several bathrooms located throughout the campground with flush toilets.  They have nightly educational programs and the rangers have always been polite to us.  Firewood is available for sale at the CG entrance.

      Heaton Bay

      Well maintained campsite with moderate privacy. It is a walk on site but parking is right by the site so not far to haul stuff at all. There are trees all around the site but there is an opening/walkway to the neighboring campsite so not 100% private No one on the other side of site so there is an opening in trees that makes for a perfect hammock/ hang out spot which also provides more shade & privacy.

      Bear locker, fire pit and picnic table. Bathrooms nice & well maintained. Close to stores and restaurants in case you need anything. Right on lake Dillon so paddle boarding and trials close by too.

      White River National Forest Heaton Bay Campground

      Great Campground

      This is a well maintained campground. There is water available on every loop. There is electricity and water available at each site on loop A. The driveways and streets are paved. There are walking and bike riding trails everywhere. The town of Frisco is under a 10 minute drive with great grocery stores. Most sites have a fire ring and picnic tables along with bear proff storage containers. Heaton Bay is quiet and lovely. Firewood is for sale at the local grocery stores. There is really something for everyone. We will definitely return when back in this part of the country. Have fun and safe travels.

      Castle Mountain Recreation Area at Wellington Lake

      Private but Crowded

      Beautiful lakeside camping just outside of Denver. Campsites are a bit close together, but great for groups! No hookups here but you have bathroom facilities and a visitor center where you can buy firewood. Campfires allowed in the fire pits. If you have an RV beware quiet hours from 10pm to 8am, no generators allowed. Lake is perfect for paddleboarding, kayaking and fishing and you will most likely have phone service if you are with AT&T or Verizon. Many day use areas, however vehicles and individuals are charged. For campers, if you bring more than one vehicle you will be charged daily for any additional ones. No drinking water is available, you must bring your own. Dirt roads to the lake are rough and narrow. Close to Deckers for incidentals. Intersects with the Colorado trail for hiking and biking and close to the Colorado River for tubing!

      great tiny homes near the collegiate peaks

      We stayed in the Harvard tiny home, which had three full size beds in it. Two of the beds were up lofted, and those were more comfortable. The third bed on the ground floor was very hard and lumpy, we gave my dad our extra pillows to put over the rough spots. But if you were booking to just use two beds (two couples or two singles) it would be fine. The bathroom is very compact, but the clean and nice hot water. The kitchen is fully functional, plus a BBQ and picnic table on the outside. The grounds were quiet and we had plenty of space away from neighboring visitors. Tongs of hiking trailheads and rock climbing was within a half hour drive.

      Salida East Campground — Arkansas Headwaters Recreation Area

      Great Pricing Open Year Round

      I was hoping to go here to see some people launching their white water rafting, however that was not the case when I was visiting. Despite being open year round there was not a lot of activity going on when I was there in late October during midweek. The surroundings were amazing, however I opted to not stay because a cold front was coming in to push through some snow, probably the reason why people where not rafting.

      The sites for camping were nice, there were many campgrounds to choose from along the area and sites were large and spacious. Most importantly they were reasonably priced at only $18. Part of what makes these camps be able to not close their doors seasonally is their vault toilets, with no running water at camp they do not have to worry about pipes bursting or issues relating to this so camp can keep going.

      Sites are equipped with traditional picnic table, fire ring and grill and there is a changing area at the campground too just to get out of the gusty winds and provide a bit of shelter for getting cleaned up each day.

      The Salida campground does have a boat ramp and launch right beside camp and fully backs up to the river itself so you have amazing views from any campsite. You really can't lose with this place!!

      TIPS:

      • Come prepared there is limited cell service here and no store on site so you will be needing to go to town if you forget anything.

      • Check weather conditions, though open year round you will want to prepare if cold fronts are passing through as this area is already a bit cooler being so close to the waters edge.

      Mueller State Park Campground

      Absolutely Wonderful

      This is less than thirty minutes from my house, but feels like a world away. Spots are close but private and paved pads make leveling easy. Most sites are pull through along the road and include electric. Back in sites are also available. The campground was full even with the snow and cold in early September. There are very few undesirable spots within the grounds, and the group sites are exceptional.

      Vault and flush toilets are available at various locations through the campground, and there is a self-service dump station available at the front of the campground. We did run into the issue of people dumping buckets of waste in the dump station and not washing everything down, so look before you step.

      Tent pads are large platforms filled with pea gravel, and include well maintained picnic tables and fire rings. The grounds and campsites are beautifully maintained and wonderful views of the surrounding mountains are plentiful.

      Watch out for wildlife and be sure to read restrictions and rules on the maps provided at the gate - use and closures change seasonally.

      Arrowhead Point Camping Resort

      Great campground!

      This campground is right off the road and easy to find. They had RV sites in the front of the camp and tent sites up the road. We had showers and laundry, general store and wood for sale. Our site was very nice with lots of room. We had a picnic table and a fire pit in the site. There were a few portable bathrooms that were super clean available for night time runs.

      Great views of the mountains!

      Castle Mountain Recreation Area at Wellington Lake

      Good Campground for Social Distancing

      Currently they don't have day-use open, so there's plenty of space at the lake to set-up and spend the day playing with the kids. We stayed in a mountain site (not lake-front) and the kids loved climbing the rocks and exploring the mountain. Really friendly staff. Quiet hours are not well kept and that would be my only complaint. No motors allowed on lake. Great for paddleboarding (rentals available), kayaking, canoeing & kid's floats.
