"I only gave it 4 stars because on the outskirts of the state park we have a lot of homeless camps popping up oblong Parker road and 225."
"It is in the center of the city, but aside from the traffic on the dam in the distance you would not realize it. "
$36 - $41 / night
"Very convenient campground with great access to North Denver/Boulder area. Only downside is proximity to I-25 and traffic noise. But there are many nice trails and lakes to fish from."
"It is near I-25 highway so there is road traffic noise but becomes background noise after a day or so. But if that bothers you you won’t like it."
"Chatfield State Park is a great mixture of access to the outdoors with availability of many of the benefits of a metro area close by."
"This is the first time I’ve found a state park so close to a major metro area!!
Because of its proximity to Denver, Chatfield fills up quickly, so book well in advance."
$35 - $55 / night
"Take a friend and a picnic for a lovely day on this beautiful lake right here in Arvada. Your worries fall away and you can experience the joy in nature around you. Maybe weird but true!"
"5 stars because of the lake, Mountain Views, and it not being far from town. Rent a floatation device or bring your own and enjoy the warmth on the lake☀️"
"This park is kind of pricey even in the winter (we stayed Nov22-Jan23) but it’s Colorado and it’s all pretty pricey. Park staff is super friendly and accommodating."
"Good site if you want to be close to Denver but still have a short drive to the foothills."
$18 / night
"area was plowed open to exactly the width of our trailer, so with more than three feet of snow on the ground we needed to get some exercise and do a bit of shoveling so we could back in and be able to walk"
"Late October is very unpredictable in Colorado for a camper who is primarily a tent camper."
"This was our first time staying at Bear Creek Lake. The park is not part of the Colorado Wilds or CPW State Park system, but daily vehicle fees are included with your camping reservation."
"Note: If the GPS takes you to a dirt road with a closed gate at the end, get back on the highway and take the next exit to the park entrance."
$32 - $80 / night
"Had a great spot right next to the Clear Creek walking path. The campground is clean and well looked after. Clean bathrooms and showers. Close to many hikes and mt trails."
"**Campground Review: **
Golden, CO is a super cute town on the outskirts of Denver. The city has a campground in a prime location, and we were lucky to book a site!"
"Good location close to interstate to access all the cool towns and site seeing west of Denver."
"When I walked in the office, I was greeted by 5 wonderful sweet dogs. I love dogs so there couldn't have been a better greeting. Kathy was very friendly and helpful."
$10 - $35 / night
"Arrived in Colorado little after midnight, got a spot right away plenty of availability and close enough to some good hiking areas"
"We couldn’t find anything near family in Highlands Ranch in July, but ran across this place- Tight spots for our 38 ft fifth wheel but, we made it."
TravelerLots of lovely spots close to Boulder. Most sites have well established firings, which is great. Less crowded than some other spots although we did have an unfortunate group of men a couple sites down that had too much fun in to the wee hours of the morning. Always annoying. The only thing I would caution about this area is The ticks. We brushed about Five off of us just during the visit. Unfortunately we must’ve missed one because my wife ended up with one attached when we got home in her scalp. Just be aware and make sure you’re checking when you get back.
ScoutThis KOA is perched up in between the most beautiful outlooks. The staff is so kind and welcoming, and the amenities are well kept!
ScoutNice big sites, open space without a lot of trees, beautiful views, clean restrooms, showers (pay for) water fill stations, dump station, several restrooms.
TravelerTerrible spot, def don’t come here during the summer! It’s not pretty at all on the creek or all the different spots deeper into the forest. There’s 0 room and it’s not beautiful at all when it’s sunny & gorgeous out. (Kidding, this place is a gem)
ScoutHey everyone, just wanted to leave a little review about Golden Terrace, South. This is actually a nice campground with some very close together spots, but very quiet people for the most part. We’ve been here for two months and I’ve enjoyed it thoroughly . The shower house facilities is extremely well kept , and has reliable hot water. As for cost cost to park your rather high, I would encourage someone to mix this with Boondocking .
LegendI have a front wheel drive Promaster and it wasn’t impossible, but it didn’t give me the warm and fuzzies trying to get up there. A lot of private property and all just very scrunched. Hard to turn around. Don’t recommend it.
ScoutBeautiful setting. Lake view. Mountain View. Good time.

TravelerI would’ve given 5 stars but there are no showers. Otherwise, perfect!
