Best Cabin Camping near Fountain, CO

Fountain, Colorado features several campgrounds with cabin accommodations for overnight stays. Colorado Springs KOA offers basic cabins with electricity, though most lack full bathrooms or kitchens. The cabins typically include beds, tables, and air conditioning, providing a comfortable alternative to tent camping. "Me along with four other friends spent several days tent camping around the Colorado Springs area. On our last night of travel, our camping plans fell through and we needed to find a convenient place late at night to rest. We ended up at the KOA and took advantage of one of their adorable little cabins," noted one visitor. Mountaindale Cabin & RV Resort provides more spacious options with greater privacy.

While some cabins include only minimal furnishings, others offer more amenities like refrigerators and microwaves. Most locations require advance reservations, especially during summer months when demand peaks. Pet policies vary by location, with many properties allowing dogs for an additional fee. Cripple Creek KOA operates seasonally from May to October, while Colorado Springs KOA remains open year-round. A recent review mentioned, "We spent the night, actually pretty comfortably, and got a great night's sleep. All and all a very positive experience at the KOA's wonderful, clean facilities."

Most cabin rentals provide beds with mattresses but require guests to bring their own linens, pillows, and towels. Basic cooking equipment like microwaves may be available in deluxe cabin models, but standard units typically lack kitchen facilities. Several campgrounds maintain on-site stores with firewood, ice, and basic supplies. Goldfield RV Park and Garden of the Gods RV Resort both offer cabin options within reasonable driving distance to grocery stores in Colorado Springs. Bathroom facilities are generally shared unless staying in premium cabin units that include private bathrooms.

    Lone Duck Campground and Cabins

    Good Home Base

    Lone Duck Campground was a good home base for us during our visit to Colorado Springs. The campground is several miles down from Woodland Park and about the same down to Manitou and the Springs. We were out and about during the days, but Lone Duck was nice to return to each afternoon.

    Reservations were easy to do online. They had the site ready for us when we arrived.

    Site 45 was great for our pop up. If we had our 30’ trailer, we wouldn’t have had room for our truck. The site is right next to a lovely stream that really drowned out any road noise. We slept great with the white noise the stream produced. Our site had a picnic table and fire pit (with grill grate). We had water and 30/20 amp electric.

    The bathrooms/showers were in the main office. The men’s restroom had a couple of stalls and three showers. They were sufficient for me. The women’s restroom was small and cramped according to my wife. It appears the floors and walls had been coated with a garage floor or bed-liner material. It wasn’t the most appealing but again was sufficient. We did use the laundry room and all machines worked fine.

    There is a store, small dining area, and arcade in the main office along with the restrooms and laundry room. Wifi was hit or miss from the campsites. It was better inside the office. The check in staff was aware of the wifi and mentioned they were working on it. (We weren’t here for the internet so again, not an issue for us).

    The kids did swim in the pool. The water was warm and they seemed to enjoy playing with other kiddos there. There is a small playground next to the pool and fishing pond. Kids played there frequently until quiet hours.

    There are a few small cabins on the grounds and separate sections of the park for tents. There are houses just across the stream from our site but we never heard from or noticed any of the neighbors.

    There is quite a bit of greenery throughout the campground. I thought the place could use a mowing or weed eating, but maybe it’s normal to have local grasses/plants left alone to grow.

    As others have mentioned it is a bit tricky getting in and out. If you leave toward Woodland Park, you’ll have to cross a couple of lanes and make u-turn. Same thing of your coming to the campground from Manitou. You’ll make a u-turn.

    Overall, we liked the place and would stay again.

I never thought at my age(64) I would ever be interesting in accompanying my daughter's family on a tent camping trip! It was my birthday and there were fresh cut flowers with a lovely birthday wish awaiting me next to my bedside table. Thank you! Debbie and Justin blew us away with their tent camping experience. Luxuriously decorated tents complete with comfortable queen size beds, kitchen table and 4 chairs, and living room areas as well as your own camp restroom outside your tent and private gazebo with more seating, table and outdoor solar lights. We enjoyed the local restaurants& attractions such as Santa's Workshop, a gold mine tour where they taught us how to pan for gold, Garden of the Gods, AJ's Pizza and a steam engine train ride in Cripple Creek. The kids loved the property as much as they loved sightseeing in the area. They hiked, ran around in the green space, played on the swing set and even got to help Ms Debbie gather fresh eggs from her mama hens. We bought some of her eggs and they were delicious! The area was truly some of the most picturesque that I have ever experienced and the wild life is abundant so keep your food locked up in your car which you can park conveniently outside your front door. Mr Justin was always busy working on improving this rustic piece of property but always had time to meet any need that arose during our stay. We can not wait to return and see the 1930s cabins that they are in the process of restoring. If they are anything like their tents they will be amazing.

    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.

    Lone Duck Campground and Cabins

    Actually around 4 ducks

    I typically rate campgrounds as they fit into 1 of 5 categories. This campground will be rated as a Basecamp — grounds that offer a comfortable home base that you’re happy to return to after a day of exploring the surrounding area. Ratings for this category are based on: Value to cost: 4 Overall grounds: 4 Utility of sites (hookups, layout, accessibility): 4 Local Attraction Proximity: 5 Reservation Process/Ease of Getting a Site: 5 Amenities: 4 Customer Service: 5 Cleanliness: 4

    In the mountains of Manitou Springs/Colorado Springs, just off the 24 highway, Loneduck Campground is tucked away down a driveway you will surely miss if you’re not paying close attention (look for the empty sign post sticking up from the highway, see my video). The grounds are quite nice... not luxury but rustic mountain vibe. Large trees and greenery with sites surrounding a small pond.

    This is clearly a favorite destination for locals... lots of groups of friends with kids gathering and spending time together. If you dislike kids, you may want to reconsider. Kids laughing and enjoying fishing, the pool and playground up until quiet hours. We don’t have kids but enjoyed the sounds. Nights were quiet, even with the highway overhead. We slept every night with the windows open and the car noise was not an issue. It only got louder in the mornings. Barking dogs were much louder, but still not an issue.

    The utilities were good enough, though water pressure was pretty low, especially once our neighbor arrived and fed off the same pipe.

    While we didn’t use any, the amenities looked nice. Pool looked lovely and the playground was... beloved by the kids. Everyone seemed to be enjoying the pond with fishing. Fire pits were out of use due to the ban and there was a large dishwashing station for tent campers. There is an arcade which looked perfectly retro. We did use laundry, the machines were fine (takes quarters) but the room itself was a bit dingy. Can’t speak for showers or restrooms. The picnic table at our site had seen better days. Our biggest point of confusion was the placement of the dump station, right at the exit, so in some cases, people that don’t have to dump still have to wait for people to dump in order to leave. There was a long line on a Sunday morning but we managed to squeeze thru after about 10 minutes.

    Staff was quite nice but if you’re very worried about COVID, be warned that virtually nobody wears a mask and high touch surfaces don’t seem to be cleaned frequently.

    For everything they offer at the grounds, I think the price is very reasonable. They’re right next to the Pikes Peak by way and so close to so many other attractions/adventures. Also, there’s a running/walking path that brings you to Green Mountain Falls town just 1/2 mile away but you have to walk on Rt 24 for about 100 yards to get to the next street, so be careful.

    The reservation process was a breeze and they were very responsive and accommodating when we wanted to add a day. A great spot to spend time.

    Great Campground Near Pike's Peak, Manitou Springs, and Cave of the Winds

    I personally loved staying at this campground. It is in Cascade, CO right off of Highway 24. It is minutes away from Pike's Peak, Manitou Springs, Cave of the Winds, Red Rocks Open Space, and Colorado Springs. This puts it in a really convenient location while still feeling on the more secluded side. The common area has lots of cool arcade games, and the showers were always clean.

    The Meadows Campground — Cheyenne Mountain State Park

    Solid tent site

    Very nice small stone tent pad that is about 10x10. Cement area next to the tent pad with a metal/plastic coating picnic table. Fire ring is very modern with a grill surface that covers the entire fire (not like the old school flip down that only goes over 1/3 of the fire ring). Bathrooms are clean. Shower is good only thing is it is a quarter operated system. They do have a quarter dispenser for bills. Tent spaces are pretty private. They do allow dogs but only in the camping area. Most trails they do not permit. Tents are a very short walk in (40 yards at most)


Guide to Fountain

Cabins near Fountain, Colorado provide camping options at elevations ranging from 5,500 feet in Colorado Springs to over 9,000 feet in nearby mountain areas. Nighttime temperatures can drop significantly even in summer, with 30-40°F temperature swings common between day and night. Most cabin rentals in the area operate seasonally from May through October, though some remain open year-round with higher rates during peak summer months.

What to do

Hike nearby trails: The Meadows Campground at Cheyenne Mountain State Park offers multiple hiking options with varying difficulty levels. "The trails are superb and offer a variety of high plains and mountain views. Trail markings are remarkable, offering both self-guided tutorial placards and strategically located gps coordinates, in case of injury," notes one visitor who appreciated the well-maintained paths.

Visit historic mining towns: Cripple Creek is located about 45 minutes from Fountain and features preserved gold mining history. "The towns of Cripple Creek and Victor are full of old mining history!" explains a camper who stayed at Cripple Creek KOA. This area sits at approximately 10,000 feet elevation, making it "the WORLDS HIGHEST KOA," according to another reviewer.

Explore Pike's Peak: Several cabin options provide good access to Pike's Peak, one of Colorado's famous fourteeners. "We were in the middle of a road trip from Southern California to Denver, CO, with the intention of hiking Pike's Peak," shared a visitor to Lone Duck Campground. For those not wanting to hike, "My family thought it would be better to go up on the cog railway train rather than driving the auto road."

What campers like

Wildlife viewing opportunities: Many cabin locations offer chances to see local wildlife. At Mountaindale Cabin & RV Resort, campers regularly spot animals. "We saw deer wander around the campsites every morning and evening. The sites are terraced so that everyone has a beautiful view," mentions one reviewer who appreciated the natural setting and layout.

Clean bathroom facilities: Cabin campers consistently mention bathroom cleanliness as important. "The bathhouse is extremely clean, with several private bathroom/shower rooms. There is also a laundry with 4 washers & dryers," notes a camper from Mountaindale Cabin & RV Resort. Another reviewer at Mueller State Park Campground similarly commented, "Clean, level campsites. We stayed in conifer 25. Close to comfort station and playground. Coin showers but are super clean."

Accessibility to attractions: Locations with cabins provide convenient access to regional attractions. "From here we visited Garden of the Gods, Royal Gorge and Pike's Peak, all within 30 minutes to one hour's drive," explains a Mountaindale visitor. The campground is approximately 30 minutes south of Colorado Springs, making day trips practical while still having a quieter evening retreat.

What you should know

Site spacing varies significantly: Some cabin areas offer more privacy than others. "This is a lovely park spread out among pines, cedars & hills. However, it is very important to get a spot away from the road," advises a Mountaindale visitor. In contrast, at Garden of the Gods RV Resort, "The spots are ridiculously close. Not only did I feel I was about to hit my new neighbor, I found out that I share a water spout with my back neighbor."

Cell service and connectivity: Connectivity differs widely between locations. "There is no cell service for AT&T or T-Mobile, but you are able to do wifi calling with their WiFi and we streamed a movie one night," reports a Mountaindale camper. Other locations closer to Colorado Springs typically offer better coverage, though mountainous terrain can create dead zones.

Reservation timing matters: Peak summer season requires advance planning. "Even on a Monday night in mid April, the park was filled so reservations would be advised," notes a camper at Cheyenne Mountain State Park. Most popular cabin locations book up 3-6 months in advance for summer weekends.

Tips for camping with families

Look for built-in activities: Some cabin locations offer amenities specifically for kids. "The heated pool is awesome (and pretty darn warm!), the little trout pond is nice for the kids (you have to pay $6 for each fish that you catch, though, and there is no catch and release)," explains a visitor at Lone Duck Campground and Cabins. They also noted, "They have a really great arcade in the main office game room. About 15 arcade games total, 1/2 of which are pinball machines."

Budget for additional fees: Many cabin locations charge extra for amenities. "They do breakfasts some mornings and I'm assuming some dinner options some evenings as well. We opted for the $5 pancake breakfast in the morning which included 2 large pancakes, side of meat (bacon/sausage), and coffee/juice," shares a Lone Duck camper.

Pack for variable temperatures: Mountain elevations cause significant temperature fluctuations. "The air is thin up here- real thin. That also means that it's pure, clean blissfully light oxygen so breathe deep and enjoy it," mentions a Cripple Creek KOA camper. Evening temperatures frequently drop below 50°F even in summer months.

Tips from RVers

Check site accessibility: Many cabin-focused campgrounds have limitations for larger RVs. At Pikes Peak RV Park, "Sites are very close together. Friendly helpful staff. Bathrooms clean well maintained," but several reviewers mention challenges with larger rigs. "We had to work so hard to get our trailer in. It's pretty cramped all around actually- too close to the neighbors," notes one camper.

Consider utility placement: Site layouts can create hookup challenges. "After getting setup I found out that I'd need to climb up the short retaining wall into my neighbors site to hookup our water hose. The spigot was shared between our sites," explained a Garden of the Gods RV Resort visitor. Requesting specific site information before booking can help avoid surprises.

Evaluate noise considerations: Traffic noise varies significantly between locations. At Cheyenne Mountain State Park, "Depending on the wind direction, and with no leaves on the trees yet, highway noise could be heard in the distance from interstate 25, but not loud enough to be an irritation." More remote options like Mountaindale provide quieter settings, though one reviewer noted, "Beginning early morning until late afternoon M-F, trucks roar up and down this road."
