      North Park Campground

      Not well kept, but has potential

      Was an old KOA. In fact, there are two typical KOA A frame buildings that need to be torn down due to their lack of upkeep. The grounds were overgrown with weeds knee high.

      Fort Collins North-Wellington KOA

      Impressive

      Clean, well-kept campground with full outdoor kitchen, pool and play areas. The staff were extremely kind. One of the best KOA’s we have stayed at. As a couple reviewers have mentioned, there may be a livestock smell depending on the wind direction, but we only noticed it once and it was bothersome.

      Estes Park KOA

      Noisy next to road and small showers

      Nice people, but right against the road. My tent was 50 feet from the main road and I tried to sleep with my head under the pillow. Also, showers are TINY, but bathhouse is air conditioned.

      Last Chance Camp, Cheyenne

      Open and easy camping

      The campground was an open field, with other campers spread out and some picnic tables in the mix. They have a porta potty, and outside shower, and an outdoor kitchen area. It’s just right outside of the main town area here in Cheyenne so super convenient!

      North Fork Poudre Campground

      A hidden gem near Red Feather

      This is a great little campground with only 7 campsites that are first come first served (no reservations). However, it's almost never full and if it is full there are plenty of free camping areas along the road (forest service road). There is no electricity or sewer capabilities for RV's and campers and the sites are relatively small, but a pop up or smaller 5th wheels and RVs will fit. There are pit toilets in the campground, but no running water - so pack your own or bring a filter to pump out of the creek.

      The beautiful Kilpecker Creek runs through the camp and most of the campsites are situated right along the creek. All of the campsites have a good tent pad, fire pit and picnic table. The great thing about this campground is it's location and the fact that the sites are fairly spaced out giving you more privacy at each site. There is also a great communal area in the center of the campground of you have a small group up there.

      Maka sure to use a bear bag or put all food in the car at night (bear country)

      Great location

      great location right near most attractions in Estes park. Inexpensive. They gave showering/bathroom facilities. There’s is a store for your camping essentials. Fire pits, great view of the mountains. Campsites are very close to each other. Laundry also is on site.

      Glacier Basin Campground — Rocky Mountain National Park

      Glacier basin campground in Rocky Mountain National Park , July 2019

      Beautiful campground with great amenities. Nice flush toilets with running water, sinks, very clean. Water available throughout the campground and solar showers and a dishwashing station. We had spotty cell service which is fine. A short hike takes you to sprague lake or the park and ride shuttle to bear lake area. The shuttle does come into the camp, but due to construction it was easier to walk over to the park and ride. If possible take the drive up through the park to grand lakes via the alpine visitor center!

      South Bay Campground — Horsetooth Reservoir

      Probably more of a 3.5 than a three but not quite a 4

      We had a hard time deciding what to rate this because there truly were so many pros, however the cons were fairly plentiful as well. We had a great time don’t get us wrong but… decide for yourself.

      The pros: -Honestly I loved the location in relation to fellow campers. We had nobody to the south of us and our neighbors north of us were blocked by a bush. We were up the hill overlooking to the reservoir above the neighbors west of us. However to the east of us was the main road in and out of the area. So expect road noise over neighbor noise. -Shower house and flushing toilet that were clean and very well maintained. Climate control and comfortable and very well lit. However the shower token system didn’t take our bills so we couldn’t use our showers (I note a camper passing by on our first day telling us about the shower house “it’s a pain in the ass…”) -close to the dumpster and literal feet from the water. -could walk down to the water (even got picked up by some friends on a boat)… or travel north for a social trail along the water with some killer fishing areas.

      • close to town and convenient to get to and the views are stunning. Beautiful view of Horsetooth mountain and our site did feel very private. -electric pedestal with 30 amp and 50 amp worked.
        -if you are a birder the birding was 10/10 being surrounded by kingbirds, grackles, orioles, cat birds, cormorants, even some osprey, and can’t forget out the campground goose ❤️

      The cons- while not deal breakers for us we couldn’t give this site any more stars because of them -The road noise is a lot. We were lucky to be in an RV however tent camping would be a different story. -again with tent camping although this site felt private you would be amongst only rvs and trailers.

      • the shower house didn’t take our money so we couldn’t get tokens to shower. (If we cared a little more I am sure we could have asked the camp host for some)
      • crowded but of course it is its beautiful there and I don’t blame people for being there (I am people being there) -did I mention the road noise yet?
      • not very shaded- great for solar terrible to staying cool- spent a lot of time at the water which was nice. Suggest bringing a shade tent, awning, or something.

      Well that’s my review for site S46 at south bay campground of Horsetooth… attached are some videos of the site as well as a spot I was able to walk to just north of this site.

Summer temperatures typically reach 75-85°F during day with nighttime lows of 45-55°F, creating ideal conditions for outdoor recreation. The Poudre Canyon area offers camping access with multiple recreation opportunities throughout the Roosevelt National Forest.

    What to do

    Fishing the Big Thompson River: Riverview RV Park provides excellent river access for anglers. As one camper noted, "My husband enjoyed the catch & release fishing. Fishing was good according to him." The river runs directly through the property, creating convenient fishing opportunities without traveling elsewhere.

    Hiking to viewpoints: At Hermits Hollow Campground, visitors can access the Kruger Rock Trail directly from the campground. "The Kruger Rock Trailhead is inside the campground, and it is a nice hike with an amazing view of the Rockies and Estes at the top. Bring your crayons - there are two trailmarkers on the trail that you can do rubbings of," explains one visitor.

    Paddle boating: The South Bay Campground at Horsetooth Reservoir offers water recreation options. A camper mentioned, "The lake was great for paddle boarding, canoeing, and kayaking," making it an excellent base for water activities just 30 minutes from Livermore.

    What campers like

    Privacy between sites: Many campgrounds near Livermore offer well-spaced sites. At Glacier Basin Campground, a visitor mentioned, "Sites are a little close together, but well taken care of. The beetles have caused many of the trees to be removed; however, despite what the reservation site says, loop C has enough trees to hang a hammock."

    Wildlife viewing opportunities: The area is rich with wildlife spotting chances. A visitor to Hermits Hollow noted, "We enjoyed seeing the kids playing in the playground and riding around the park on their bikes. Nearly every day a deer would come munch on the greenery right behind our rig."

    Proximity to Rocky Mountain National Park: Many campgrounds serve as convenient baselines for park exploration. One camper at Estes Park Campground at Mary's Lake shared, "Close to Estes Park downtown and a short drive to Rocky Mt Park entrance. Clean facilities, friendly staff and very affordable!"

    What you should know

    Limited drinking water access: At some campgrounds, water access can be challenging. One camper at South Bay Campground noted, "Electric hookup worked, but no water at the site, and 'public water' in the area was a broken water fountain. We filled up at the dump station."

    Seasonal weather variations: The area experiences significant weather changes, with possible sudden wind storms. "It can be suddenly and very windy here, so most campers did not use awnings," reported a visitor to Riverview RV Park.

    Coin-operated showers: Several campgrounds charge for shower use. At Estes Park Campground at Mary's Lake, "The bathrooms are nice and clean, but the showers are coin-operated. Now, I don't mind paying for a good shower, but when you're already paying forty-five bucks a night, throwing eight quarters into a machine for six minutes (if that) of hot water seems a bit like robbery."

    Tips for camping with families

    Dog-friendly options: For families traveling with pets, Riverview RV Park offers dedicated pet areas. A visitor mentioned, "We had a great time at this campground. We spent 4 days in a spot right next to the river. Close to Rocky Mountain National Park. Really enjoyed the river, dog park, live music on sat. night and laundry."

    Kid-friendly amenities: Many campgrounds cater specifically to families with children. A camper at CanyonSide Campground shared, "There's communal fire pits, a jungle gym for kids, and hiking trails into and up the Poudre Canyon."

    Budget-friendly glamping near Livermore: Families seeking glamping near Livermore without premium prices should consider Estes Park. "We stayed in site 14, which is a deluxe site. Full hookups, raised patio and propane fire pit. The KOA is small but very nice," noted one visitor to Estes Park KOA.

    Tips from RVers

    Road conditions to campgrounds: Some areas have challenging access roads. At Vedauwoo Wagon Road, a camper reported, "The dirt road was easy to drive down. Some of the secondary roads that go off the main dirt road are a bit more tough. Would not recommend hauling a big trailer down some of them (although I did see a lot of big trailers)."

    Site spacing and privacy: RVers often seek adequate space between campsites. At AB Camping, one visitor noted, "The spots were close to each other. The showers were cold in the women's bathroom. Nice place to crash for the night," indicating that spacing can vary significantly between properties.

    Hookup availability: Full service options exist but may come with tradeoffs. A camper at South Bay Campground explained, "Our site was well spaced from our neighbors, but other areas were fairly dense. Electric hookup worked, but no water at the site," highlighting the need to verify utility connections when booking.
