Best RV Parks & Resorts near Peyton, CO

Falcon Meadow RV Campground offers full hookup sites for recreational vehicles with 50-amp electric service. The campground provides year-round access on primarily dirt roads with gravel sites, some featuring shade trees. "We stayed at this campground full-time for almost a year and it's lovely for that purpose or for a night away," notes one camper. Garden of the Gods RV Resort, located 25 miles southwest near Colorado Springs, accommodates big rigs with paved interior roads and includes water, sewer, and 50-amp electric connections. Peak RV Resort features 146 sites designed specifically for RVs with no tent camping allowed, though reviews indicate the sites are positioned quite close together with limited privacy between neighbors.

Seasonal considerations affect availability throughout the region. Many parks require reservations well in advance, especially during summer months when Colorado Springs tourism peaks. While Peak RV Resort maintains a gated entry system with keypad access, campers report moderate road noise at Falcon Meadow from nearby Highway 24. Based on reviews from The Dyrt, several RV parks charge additional fees beyond the base rate—Peak RV Resort adds reservation fees ($7) and credit card processing fees ($6.40). Most area campgrounds welcome pets with designated dog areas, though specific breed and size restrictions may apply. Dump stations are available at all major RV parks mentioned, with sanitary facilities rating consistently high in visitor feedback.

    Diamond Campground & RV Park

    Rustic campground with a great location.

    This location was perfect for exploring the area. It is very close to downtown Woodland Park and many attractions. Deer wander through the campground throughout the day. It is rustic , with dirt/gravel roads and sites. Lots of pine trees and most spots are pull through. Some sites are a little close together but not all of them. Restrooms are clean. Small but nice laundry-room. Clean showers. A nice tent area. Staff was friendly and helpful. Try to get here before the office closes because finding your site may be difficult. It is a little hard to figure out the roads and the proper direction to go to fine your site and get into it.
    We were here for 4th of July and there were NO activities. No pool. There is a small playground area and a small stage that has been abandoned. The dog park is at the very back of the property. Everything on our 50 amp site worked perfectly. The site was ample for our toy hauler and truck. Sites are not level, bring proper equipment for leveling. Overall, it has an awesome Colorado vibe and we liked it here. Only downside was layout of sites, no activities. You have to reserve a spot to wash clothes. This became a problem because people reserve large blocks of time and don’t show up. I couldn’t use laundry, so be forewarned.

    Lone Rock Campground

    Line Rock review

    We love this campground due to the river access. The do have potable water but it tastes pretty bad, so brIng drinking/cooking water. Most, if not all sites, have a picnic table and fire pit. During reservable season (Memorial Day to Labor Day I believe), the campground host usually has firewood for sale. No cell service, no electric. We hear that the cafe In Deckers may be getting wifi. The campground is open all year but the water is shut off in the winter. Sites are close to each other.

    Mueller State Park Campground

    Absolutely Wonderful

    This is less than thirty minutes from my house, but feels like a world away. Spots are close but private and paved pads make leveling easy. Most sites are pull through along the road and include electric. Back in sites are also available. The campground was full even with the snow and cold in early September. There are very few undesirable spots within the grounds, and the group sites are exceptional.

    Vault and flush toilets are available at various locations through the campground, and there is a self-service dump station available at the front of the campground. We did run into the issue of people dumping buckets of waste in the dump station and not washing everything down, so look before you step.

    Tent pads are large platforms filled with pea gravel, and include well maintained picnic tables and fire rings. The grounds and campsites are beautifully maintained and wonderful views of the surrounding mountains are plentiful.

    Watch out for wildlife and be sure to read restrictions and rules on the maps provided at the gate - use and closures change seasonally.

    Cripple Creek Hospitality House & RV Park

    Best rv park in Tellar County

    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.

    Falcon Meadow RV Campground

    Run down, but convenient

    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.

    Colorado Campground

    Great location for exploring Colorado Springs and the area

    This Pike National Forest campground is run by Rocky Mountain Recreation which means you'll pay a $10 transaction fee if you make a reservation on recreation.gov. It looks like some sites are strictly walk-up. Check recreation.gov to see what's available, but you can just show up if there are available sites, pay at the self-pay station, and avoid the $10 transaction fee on recreation.gov.

    Every site has a picnic table and fire ring. Vault toilets (rather fragrant as you walk by because of the vent pipes) and trash dumpsters are conveniently located throughout the campground as is potable water. There are no bear-proof lockers but locking up your food is a prudent move.

    There are mostly back in sites but some pull through sites. Most of the pull through sites are partially protected from the road by a few tall pines and large rocks, but the pull through curve may be tight for some RVs. There are a few double sites (with double charge) if you need more space.

    Manitou Lake on the edge of the campground is a popular fishing spot, and there's a trail around the lake.

    Our site (#45) was rather close to the road, but the road noise was not bad throughout the park. Sites 40 through 44 are on a small loop and are probably the nicest sites even with a bit of road noise; these sites are near the trail to the lake.

    In my opinion, there are two things that make this campground stand out: 1) The sites are large and not on top of each other. This campground could have twice as many sites, but it's nice that it doesn't. 2) It's a great location because you're close to Pikes Peak, Garden of the Gods, Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, US Air Force Academy, Cripple Creek (only if you're into gambling), lots of hiking trails...and on and on. It's close to Colorado Springs and even closer to Woodland Park. If you want craft breweries and restaurants, you'll find plenty. We enjoyed being close to a larger city after being in lots of small towns. We loved the inexpensive food at Uchenna (Ethiopian and Mediterranean), Taste of Jerusalem, and Azada Mexican as well as craft beer (Fossil Craft Beer Company and Phantom Canyon Brewing Company with ginger wheat ale, Belgian ale aged on cherries, hazelnut coffee stout, coconut/chocolate porter, and on and on) in Colorado Springs. Beer is $3 during a 3 to 6 pm happy hour at Phantom Canyon....yes!

    This campground is only open between Memorial Day weekend and Labor Day.

    Colorado Campground

    Good location

    Colorado campground is situated outside of Woodland Park (10 minute drive) and right next to Manitou lake.  This is a great area central to the Pikes Peak wilderness area so many trails are nearby and activities while still being close to civilization if you forget something or choose to eat-out.  The CG itself is large, but the sites are well spaced apart...it is a primitive CG with picnic table, fire-pit and gravel pull through or back-in spots.  There are water spigots, vault toilets and garbage cans equally dispersed throughout.  In the summer they have an educational series also on the weekends of various nature/wildlife "seminars" that are great for the kids in their small amphitheater, although i don't know how frequent they are scheduled.  As others have stated its a short walk to the lake for fishing and canoeing if you choose.  The CG is well maintained and hosts are friendly.

    Chatfield State Park Campground

    Fancy shmancy campground

    This was a wonderful experience for us! If you are looking to be in solitude in nature this is not the place for you. It's very close to Denver, with every amenity you could think Of! This isn't how we usually camp, but after 4 days of driving and hiking we needed this mini oasis! Clean showers, bathrooms, laundry rooms and playgrounds. Even the fire pits were spotless. There are even vending machines and WiFi 😂

    Pets okay on leash, lots of bunnies hopping around so keep an eye on your little buddy.


Guide to Peyton

Peyton, Colorado sits at an elevation of 6,800 feet, offering a high plains terrain with views of Pikes Peak to the west. Located approximately 25 miles northeast of Colorado Springs, Peyton's RV campgrounds provide year-round access for campers, though winter brings temperatures that frequently drop below freezing from November through March. Most camping areas feature gravel pads with varying degrees of shade depending on location.

What to do

Trail access to Garden of the Gods: Visitors staying at Pikes Peak RV Park can take advantage of the walking trail behind the campground. "My site had easy access to a walking trail which was great for the dog and I," notes a camper. The park sits within walking distance to Garden of the Gods and the historic Manitou Springs district.

Wildlife viewing: Early mornings and evenings offer prime wildlife spotting opportunities. "We saw deer wander around the campsites every morning and evening," reports a camper at Mountaindale Cabin & RV Resort. Multiple RV parks report regular deer sightings, with some also noting wild turkeys passing through camping areas.

Day trips to regional attractions: Many Peyton area campgrounds serve as convenient baselines for exploring regional highlights. "From here we visited Garden of the Gods, Royal Gorge and Pike's Peak, all within 30 minutes to one hour's drive," shares a guest at Mountaindale Cabin & RV Resort. Pikes Peak Highway, Cave of the Winds, and Manitou Cliff Dwellings all sit within reasonable driving distance from most Peyton area RV parks.

What campers like

Privacy between sites: While some RV parks feature tight spacing, others provide more separation. At Rocking M Ranch Campground, campers appreciate the "Views of mountains, pines and aspens and privacy in the well designed sites!" The layout received high marks from visitors who valued having space away from neighbors.

Natural setting: Campers consistently rate wooded campgrounds higher than parking-lot style RV parks. "This is one of the best RV Campgrounds in the state of Colorado! This is definitely a hidden gem with sites nestled up in the forest trees," writes a reviewer about Rocking M Ranch Campground. Natural features like creeks also enhance the camping experience, with one camper noting, "I slept great listening to the creek" at Pikes Peak RV Park.

Clean, updated facilities: Several campgrounds receive positive reviews for their bathhouse conditions. "The bathhouse is extremely clean, with several private bathroom/shower rooms. There is also a laundry with 4 washers & dryers," reports a guest at Mountaindale Cabin & RV Resort. Another camper notes their "Washers are small and cost $2.50/load" while "Dryers are large and can accommodate up to (3) loads at a time."

What you should know

Reservation fees: Beyond the advertised nightly rates, some RV parks charge additional processing fees. "Total charge was $101/night with fees. $7 reservation fee (I called in) and $6.40 credit card fee," reports one camper at Peak RV Resort.

Variable site conditions: Even within the same campground, site quality and amenities vary significantly. "We were first assigned a very short site that had a large drain in the middle of the site. Luckily we were able to move," reported one camper. Sites closer to roads tend to experience more noise, with one visitor noting, "It is very important to get a spot away from the road" due to trucks from a nearby quarry.

Cell service limitations: Internet and cell reception varies widely across campgrounds. "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," shares a camper at Mountaindale Cabin & RV Resort. Several parks offer WiFi but with limited bandwidth during peak usage hours.

Tips for camping with families

Look for kid-specific amenities: Several campgrounds feature designated play areas. "Paved roads throughout made for nice bike rides with the kids and larger than usual dog run area was nice (right next to the playground made it easy to run both the dog and the kids)," shares a visitor at Garden of the Gods RV Resort.

Consider seasonal water features: Summer stays benefit from water recreation options. "The water park is Amazing! I saw 11 people working at the same time at one point during the day," notes a camper at Colorado Springs KOA about their on-site water park. Not all campgrounds maintain pools, and those that do typically operate them only from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

Check for evening quietness: Family-friendly campgrounds generally enforce quiet hours. One camper observed their campground "Quiets down early evening and stays that way all night," making it suitable for families with children. Parks with more seasonal workers or monthly residents tend to have different noise patterns than those catering primarily to tourists.

Tips from RVers

Site leveling challenges: Many Peyton area campgrounds require leveling equipment. "Sites are not level, bring proper equipment for leveling," advises one RVer. The terrain throughout the region includes subtle slopes that may require blocks or leveling systems, particularly for larger rigs.

Winter camping considerations: Year-round campgrounds take precautions against freezing. "The campground provides year-round access on primarily dirt roads with gravel sites" and offers "heated water spigots" during winter months, allowing for cold-weather camping. RVers planning winter stays should verify which hookups remain available during freezing conditions.

Check site dimensions carefully: Several reviewers mention challenges with site sizing and positioning. "The one we were first assigned was very short and had a large drain in the middle of the site," notes one RVer, while another mentions, "All RV 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."
