Cripple creek Rv park was very conveniently located just 2 blocks behind casinos . Great views . Most people here are long term. As a matter of fact no line else checked I or our when we were there. Make sure to call the day of arrival to confirm site number the are old school and no emails or txt . No paper or board for late night check in with direction for site . We got there late it was raining and thank you for nice level site . Overall if you are looking to do some gambling and see the site it works as a home base .

Total charge was $101/night with fees. $7 reservation fee (I called in) and $6.40 credit card fee.
Feel free to think I'm paranoid but I absolutely did NOT like that we were required to allow them to copy our driver's license. In 12 years of RV'ing I've never seen this. The desk promised to shred the ID copy after we left or return it to us (when we left the clerk was confused about giving it back).
SIX pages! of legalese rules you have to sign that are obviously not being enforced anyway and appear to be focused on long term guests.
If there had been other options for a last minute stay I would have left, but they probably would have kept my money. Cancelations <72 hours before is NO REFUND.
Sites are adequately spaced and are neat and clean. Some small trees (fairly new park). Very nice paved roads and gravel sites but really just a parking lot. Some long term guests.
No picnic table or fire ring (wood fires not allowed in any case).
As with most "RV Resorts" describing it thusly is an exaggeration.
Gate code required for entry, difficult to see screen in sunlight.
Fees charged to accept packages.$1.50-$5 depending on size.
Two dogs under 25 pounds each are allowed.

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!
Scout
Have spent summer 2021 here. A few blocks from all the casinos (they all run shuttles).
Great staff, owners on site daily. There is a food truck (Doc's) with GREAT food, permanently on site. Laundry on site, Shower & bathrooms.
The Cripple Creek Burros (free range about town) are here often. NOTE: the burros like our hummingbird feeders!
Open year round (limited rv sites open through winter)
Hotel on property was once the Cripple Creek Hospital and is "period restored."
I've spent seven summers in Colorado in my rv, Hospitality House and RV Park has been one of the best summers we've had.
32' 5th wheel, 50 amp. Reasonable long term rate.
Guide
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.
Guide
Lots of long term residents here. Great location. Lots of amenities.

We spent several nights at this KOA. It's very conveniently located and provided us with a great site and full hook ups. it also has many amenities such as a very nice swimming pool.
Traveler
Nice sites. A lot of long term residents. Wildlife right outside our door every morning.
Legend
The information above stating the campground is closed is incorrect!
General: Small (47 site) RV park at the eastern edge of downtown Manitou Springs, next to Schryver Park. This park is best suited for smaller RVs (although we did see some larger rigs).
Site Quality: As is typical for RV parks, sites are close together and without privacy separation. There are trees for shade though. Sites 1-24 back up to the recreation path (with access to the path) and sites 26– 47 back up to the creek. Although being creekside would be nice, these sites are closer to the road, and you will hear more traffic noise.
Restrooms: These require a code to enter and have showers. Cleaned daily from 11 am– 1 pm and they were very clean (with soap and paper towels).
Activities: So much to do in Manitou Springs including the cog railway to Pikes Peak, the Manitou Incline (for the very fit), shopping, and restaurants. Close to Garden of the Gods City Park in Colorado Springs. Schryver Park is nice. There are eight mineral springs, and you can do a walking tour to visit all of them. Each has a different taste to the water. If you stop by the Chamber of Commerce, you can pick up a collapsible tasting cup.
Sheryl, the General Manager, was very friendly and accommodating. We had not planned to stay here but were pleasantly surprised there was availability on Memorial Day weekend when we stopped in. Although we don’t typically like or stay in RV parks, this was a perfect base for us to explore what the area had to offer. WiFi is included.

We enjoyed our stay at the Royal Gorge RV Resort. The new owners were in the process of updating the bathhouse which will look beautiful from what I could see! The sites were level and well-kept. The camp store was well stocked with firewood, camping supplies, a s’mores bar, cold drinks and lots of Colorado made items. The view from the hot tub was amazing! The fire pits on the patio were cozy and inviting. The location was perfect, close to the Royal Gorge bridge, rafting in the Arkansas River, hiking trails, the Royal Gorge Route Railroad and several great restaurants. The playground was very kid friendly and the giant jumping pillow was super fun! We are already planning our next visit!!
GuideWe 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.
GuideThe only thing missing was space between you and your neighbors. Full hook ups. Pool. Showers. Store. Level pads. Just too close to the next family.
TravelerAlthough the RV park is nice, you're more-so paying for the location. The spots were really tight, but we spent most of our time out exploring the parks and historic Manitou Springs so we made it work during our stay. We enjoyed checking out the area on our bikes and would stay here again if we were in Colorado Springs!
ScoutAs 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!
GuideGreat 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.
Scout
Easy online reservation process, great location near Red Rocks, loved the spacious sites with full hook-ups, clean facilities, and friendly hosts.
Guide
At it's finest! This is really a great location and campground for long term stays. In spite if the numerous hailstirms in the area, this site is fabulous!! A was here for 2 months and found the site to be well maintained and patrolled. Staff were always friendly and helpful. most sites are well shaded and well drained during rain storms. Also, be sure to see the May Tropical Museum while you are there.

Stayed full day and overnight, sweet little campground. Chris the owner is a wonderful person and met us as we pulled in. Gave us a choice of sites, full hook up or just water and 30 Amp electric.(they do have 50 Amp too) Wife and I swam in the nice pool on site. Will go back on way home. Rates excellent!
Guide
Colorado Springs offers much to do and this campground is a great spot to unhook. “The Meadows” is one of the loops...all level spots here, full hook-up. Not much privacy or shade, but would still highly recommend. The park location is close to Garden of the Gods, Manitou Cliff Dwellings, Pike’s Peak and more. The park offers many wonderful hiking trails...and a frisbee golf course. Convenient drive to grocery stores and restaurants.
Guide
Another great Colorado State Park, it sits above Eleven Mile Reservoir. The sites offer everything from tent sites to full hook up. There is limited shade, but most sites are exposed.
Theres beautiful hikes around the lake and the fishing is awesome between the reservoir and Spinny Lake, and 11 Mile Canyon below the dam.
Scout
Convenient location to Cripple Creek CO. Mountain views. Situated on meadow hillside. Hiking trails, full hookups, fire rings with grills, picnic tables. Level sites with many pull thrus. Helpful owners. Sparkling bathrooms. Individual showers. Laundry rooms. Hummingbirds everywhere.
GuideVisited this RV Park over a weekend with my family. Even the premium sites are extremely close. There was a sewer-type smell near the front office. While we stayed there, the entire site was surrounded by road construction sites, which made it difficult to get in and out.
There are two pools and an arcade, which my kids enjoyed quite a bit. The location is accessible to Garden of the Gods, Manitou Springs, and a number of other popular activities close by.
Overall, I was unimpressed and would not stay here again. In looking for photos of the campground for this review, I realized I didn’t have any as there was not much to take pictures of. Overall, not my favorite and I would not stay here again.

Spent one night here. Beautiful park with great hiking trails and full hook ups. Up on the side of a mountain overlooking Colorado Springs. Went to sleep hearing taps and was woken up hearing reveille. Also was visited by several jets from the nearby army base. Spaces were very nice and level and were oncrete with a picnic table. My only two complaints was you had to pay an extra $10 to get into the park even though you paid &46 to camp there and the road up to the campground for about a mile and a half was pretty steep, probably 8 to 9% grade. Watch your brakes coming down.
TravelerAs I write this review, a fellow camper scurries past my open window about two feet from my face. Whoa. Good morning. The air is crisp, people are up early strolling with their dogs and the vague sounds of local traffic mix with the sounds and smells of bacon. The sites are tidy, clean, and sport full hookups. Not much to complain about, well, except for that social distancing thing. Even pre-Covid, the personal space here is very limited. Unfortunately, the advertised photos don’t represent the majority of the rv spaces. The staff is extremely friendly, and you really can’t beat the location with such great proximity to Manitou. For $75/night, we expected a bit more elbow room... just know before you go.
ScoutThis campsite cost us $41 for one night in a tent sight. The sights were very close together with few trees for shade and privacy because of it. Luckily it was not very crowded on our side of the very large campsite. They do however have Wi-Fi and running water for toilets and showers. They have short hiking trails with beautiful views of the land and mountains. Fishing licences are available upon request for their small but full lake, however if you already have an state fishing licence you will have to purchase another one through them because they do not accept the state licences. A separate area for pets to run and play is also available at the back of the park, but otherwise, like most campgrounds, pets are required to be leashed. Long term camping is available here with many full timers helping out around the site. Very clean all around.
Traveler
We wanted to be close enough to family, hiking and biking, and get a monthly rate during our stay this summer. This is apparently a struggle in the Colorado Springs area during the popular summer season.
The people who run the campground are an older couple and very nice, but somewhat disorganized. They were confused about our reservation, and accidentally overcharged us. No problem with a refund or our reservation in the end – just make sure you confirm everything if you decide to stay here.
The office/camp store is in disrepair. The park itself is a little run down, with a few recent looking upgrades mixed in (shower house, new chairs at each campsite). The worst part of being here IMO is the rigs that are obviously long term and look it, e.g., makeshift DIY winterization like plywood skirting.
Unless you get one of the spots in the back of the campground, all you see are these run down rigs. Not the mountains.
It's depressing.
There's moderate road noise from Highway 24. A white noise machine helps here.
There are picnic tables at each site, on concrete slabs. The one at our site was unfortunately sitting in mud, because the slab is too low and everything drains there. It's also adjacent to some sort of open drain, which doesn't help.
The maintenance guy came and shoveled the mud off the slab after we let them know we were moving the picnic table out of the mud. The next day it rained and the mud was back. By then I realized I didn't want to spend time outside in this park, at least not at the site we're in.
Traveler
Nice place to stay. I have a 42ft trailer. It’s a little tight at the entrance with the tree of shame. I didn’t hit the tree. So get there early enough that light is still out. Not like we did rolling in late. Other then that the RV park is nice. 20 min from Colorado Springs. 50 min from Denver
Manitou Springs, Colorado, offers a fantastic RV camping experience surrounded by stunning natural beauty and a variety of attractions. Whether you're looking for amenities or outdoor activities, you'll find plenty of options to make your stay enjoyable.
