  Applewood RV Resort by Rjourney

  This is now Applewood RV resort

  The name has changed; there was an abrupt change of ownership recently.   The web page for Prospect RV Park will get you nothing, and the phone number is disconnected.

  The new contact info is Applewood RV resort, 303-872-0091, web page https://rjourney.com/locations/co/wheat-ridge/applewood-rv-resort-llc

  Seems from reviews to be nice; it's annoying that "Prospect RV Park" seems to have evaporated from the planet, and it took a lot of googling to find out about the name/ownership change.  It would be nice if the phone/web page had some forwarding.  (That's why just three stars; I may change that after we've stayed there.)

  St. Vrain State Park Campground

  Clean, Afforable, Easy Access

  If you're going cross country and need a place to stop and take a break this is a great RV park. The pads are level concrete with either electric or full hook ups. Tons of fishing and trails. Verizon 4g LTE is very good.

  Getting to the park from the interstate is quick (1 mile) and easy (all paved until the last 1000 ft.).

  Now the bad. And the reason for 2 starts. I-25. The interstate is so close as I type this I can hear in my travel trailer every truck, motorcycle, and car. Going to have to use earplugs tonight to sleep. It's F##king insane the noise.

  Dakota Ridge RV Park

  Car was stolen over night

  I stayed at this location a few times the last time I stayed they forcibly broke into my car and stole it. Abandoning me in my travel trailer. No one from the park reached out to me. In fact I had to go to them to ask them to give police the video from the night. Several cars were broke into as well. In addition, they did not offer to contact surrounding campsites tenants for additional video. Since they are severally lacking in surveillance. So I had to go around to every camper and ask. In addition the police will not show up in the area they will text you. Point is if you value belongings don’t pay 60-90/night to have your stuff stolen. Speaking to long term tenants it’s been a problem. Also the bathrooms never have soap and they are from the 70’s a trash rv park. All the spots are paved and some how not level.

  Garden of the Gods RV Resort

  Great experience with plenty of amenities

  I had a great experience at Garden of the Gods RV resort. They must have changed owners or management in the past year because the older reviews I saw weren't as glowing.

  The park was clean, staff was helpful and friendly, there's 24 hour laundry, showers, electric and sewage hookups with a general store and food truck in the mornings.

  It was easy to walk to downtown Old Colorado Springs and there's a free shuttle that'll take you to Manitou Springs. It feels safe even as a single female camper!

  Boulder County Fairgrounds

  Easy, Inexpensive Place to Stay

  Well kept area to park with access to electricity. You are only allowed to stay 14 days in a calendar year, so not a long term place. We stayed in Nov so water and bathrooms were closed. But it’s a safe place to hook up to electricity so we enjoyed it. The parking area is connected to a park with sidewalks and ponds.

  Union Reservoir - **CAMPING DISCONTINUED**

  Closed for camping

  Saw this on the Longmont website Aug 2018

  Camping

  Camping is currently not available at Union Reservoir. In 2018, areas previously used for campsites were reconfigured to provide additional day use opportunities and additional parking during peak periods. In the future, design and construction of a modern campground with both tent and RV camping is planned. The campground is slated to have full hook ups, showers, flush toilets and a dump station. Learn more in the Union Reservoir & Trail Master Plan >

  Overpriced long term park

  Called this park to inquire on a spot for long term and the rate was $1700 plus electric. For the size and condition of this park, that is outrageously overpriced.

  Base Camp at Golden Gate Canyon

  Great for a quick overnight

  We stopped in after an afternoon of driving. The sites were level and very clean, hookups were easy (nice threaded, tidy black/grey water) , lots of Aspen trees between the sites, but still a bit close together. It was a very quiet Monday evening towards the end of the season when we were there, so the spacing was okay. I can see that the sites would be very close together if the property was full.

  It is really nice that they keep the long term sites on the other side of the building. The highway noise wasn’t bad.

  Our nine year old really liked the playground area.

  The bathrooms were very clean and recently remodeled, but require coins if you were going to shower.

  Nice surprise

  Couldn’t find a vacant RV park or campground north of Denver on a Friday night. Getting dark and Walmart was looking like the only option. Then we found this! Clean, a little cramped but nice showers and bathrooms. Beautiful flowers on perimeter. Full hookups $25 or $15 for none. Pleasant surprise and on way to Estes Park.

  Cottonwood RV Campground

  More of a Mobile Home Park

  This review will be short and sweet. This is an okay place for a quick night stopover. I wouldn’t go beyond this and it’s certainly not for tents.

  This is your true stereotypical mobile home park. Nothing at all wrong with that but really not much of a campground at all, more a permanent resident locale.

  Again- nothing screamingly horrible here. Just mostly mobile home park and long term residents in trailers.

  Garden of the Gods RV Resort

  Great location but sites aren't very nice.

  We stayed here June 27th-29th in a Deluxe Plus Pull Through. This RV Park is adequate as a stop over when visiting Garden of the Gods due to the location; otherwise, this park isn't anything special. Our site consisted of a narrow dirt pad and we did have a picnic table, but our neighbor's sewer connection was literally right next to our table. The spots are super close throughout the park& neighboring hookups are right outside the door. Also, there was tent camping in the RV spots, which isn't a big deal but certainly has a very different vibe than families who are RVing with their kids.

  Dakota Ridge RV Park

  RV park in Denver area

  I have stayed here a few times. Perfect for when I come to town for a concert at Red Rocks! Be forewarned that there is a lot of traffic noise coming from 2 sides and a bar across the street with bands playing Thursday thru Sunday and loud motorcycles, although not an issue to me. The RV Resort is fantastic with a nice staff, a great pool and awesome showers! The trails that are accessed at the back of the park is a cherry on top!

  Garden of the Gods RV Resort

  Great amenities

  As one of the only campsites with vacancies at last minute, this was a great spot to stop. Super close to pikes peak entrance and town, but still quiet. Super packed, lots of long term tenants. GREAT SHOWERS & laundry!

  Dakota Ridge RV Park

  Worst ever! Tight spaces. Tall weeds. Close to neighbor's sewer.

  We are at Dakota Ridge RV Resort in Golden, Colorado, Site# M22. It is terrible and we are grateful that we are only here for 2 nights. Pictures below represent the state of our site- weeds are knee high; there is a sharp dropoff at the end of the site, which overlooks an industrial parking lot. Our door leads right out to the neighbor's connections, including sewer. Our picnic table sits next to those too. Can't put out the awning because of trees overhanging our site. It's Memorial Day weekend and the pool is closed. The showers and laundry room building closes at 5 pm. Plus it's overpriced! Will never be back.

  Pikes Peak RV Park

  Not bad

  Great location. Full hook up. Helpful staff. Safe.

  Not very nice. We paid extra for a river soy and it wasn’t worth the extra cost. Spots are TIGHT. We had to work so hard to get out trailer in. It’s pretty cramped all around actually- too close to the neighbors and not very many amenities.

  Not bad overall, but I think if we return to Colorado Springs, we could find better.

  Rocky Top Motel & Campground

  Close to CO Springs & Manitou Springs

  Rocky Top is close to Colorado Springs, Manitou Springs, & Woodland Park. It has rv sites as well as a hotel and is located off I-24. Site #23 had full hookups and was a partially paved site, with a picnic table. Few trees are located within the rv park itself. Bathhouse was clean and required a code to get into them. There is also an attached laundry room that had 4 washers and 4 dryers (coin operated). Small playground located at the front of the park, but it looked like they were still working on it. Park provides free WiFi but it is iffy at times and cell signal is non existent for AT&T. Overall would camp here again.

  Applewood RV Resort by Rjourney

  Good location

  Good location close to interstate to access all the cool towns and site seeing west of Denver. We stayed for softball tournament and we were very close to Lotz park and about 25 minutes from Westminister parks.

  Spots were VERY CLOSE together so we didn’t like that at all. Definitely not the Colorado outdoorsy feel. A lot of long term folks there too. Neighborhood felt a little sketchy but we we didn’t have any issues.

  Close to Prospect lake so a good place to walk dogs.

  Facilities were very clean and well maintained.

  Clear Creek RV Park

  Good for RV stop

  Nice little rv / camp site. This is mainly an RV park. Super clean, offers picnic tables, laundry, bathroom and showers. The bathrooms require a code. The site is located inside of Golden parks, which mean local police patrolled the property throughout the night. You cannot smoke in your site, only a small designated area. The staff does not answer the phone and has short hours. We made a reservation for the wrong day (same day) called couldn’t get anyone, finally was told you have to cancel 72 hours in advance for refund even though we booked the same day so we lost a night stay and had to rebook… seems understaffed

  St. Vrain State Park Campground

  Nice suburban park

  Have to take off 1 star for the freeway noise and the lack of trees. However, the sites are nicely spaced, with many of them facing a few different ponds. The full hook-up sites are much more open than the electric only ones. Also, no showers on the full side, but what looks like a nice building on the electric side. It’s an hour to Estes Park, and it’s nice not to have to drag your rig up the mountain. Plus it’s close to Longmont where we found a couple cute breweries/cideries.

  Dakota Ridge RV Park

  Very Noisy Park

  Pros: Next to a park on top of ridge. Easy hike to Stegosaurus Ridge. Full hook ups Friendly staff Garbage pick up and dumpsters Quick to repair electric pedestal Cons: Across the street from very loud biker bar that play very loud live music starting on Thursday and plays until Saturday. While they mostly stop playing by 10, sometimes the bands play until 10:30 Sites are very close together There is not enough parking During rain or melting snow the place is very muddy Expensive
  Stayed from March to first part of June

  Boulder County Fairgrounds

  Cute site with lots to do nearby

  Campsite is on a first come basis which is nice since most places nearby are booked way in advance. Only $25 a day which includes full hook up. They have a dumpsite which is included in your fee. This is in the fairgrounds so a lot of events during the weekend. Stores, restaurants and movies all walking distance which is great.
