Awesome spot for camping with toddlers!!

I took my 3 1/2 year old here for her first camping adventure and we had a great time! It was easy to find and the dirt road is well kept. We found a great spot on a Saturday around noon and it was a perfect distance away from everything. It's about 5 minutes(1.2 mi) from the Royal Gorge bridge and about 4 mi from food, ice cream, or souvenirs. The only thing I wish was around the area is a body of water or a river. It was very hot and it would have been nice to be able to cool off a bit. The campsite was clean and level, and my daughter was able to run around and play without me having to worry at all. There was a trail right behind the site that we were able to walk down and explore as well. All the sites are pretty tight together and I was able to hear other campers conversations. That was one downfall. I would recommend this spot to anyone with a smaller rig or tent set up. It would definitely be a tight squeeze for a fifth wheel or RV.
