RV Reviews

Very clean campground. Grounds are well keep. Homemade pizza available and delivered free. Altitude can be brutal for some and weather can suddenly change so always be aware. I purchased a small bottle of oxygen from the office/store which helped tremendously for me. Bring some blocking for leveling your RV unit as the sites are on the side of a hill and you might do some tweaking.

The staff were very accommodating and friendly. The dog park was large with lots of room for dogs of all sizes to stretch their legs. Showers and bathrooms were super clean. Gift store was stocked with all sorts of goodies. We arrived very late and found our information easily available. We highly recommend staying here.

Wish the sites were a bit longer and wider as getting in and out of our travel trailer was difficult on the drop down terrain. Very friendly folks and yummy pizza!

Things are a bit tight given the campground was built for big rigs of the 90's. Glad you enjoyed your stay!

The RV sites are too close together and makes it difficult for big rigs to pull in and out of the sites

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Our sites are all about 30x60 but were built for big-rigs of the 90s. It does take some care to navigate the roads and get into your site, but thousands of large rigs have come and gone with no issues. Unfortunate that is all you took away from our beautiful mountain getaway.

We had a wonderful spot right next to the office, so we didn't have to walk too far for all of the activities that they had to offer. The staff there were helpful, wise & funny! The office had a huge gift shop. They make pizzas & pancakes & bacon/sausage in the morning rec room. There are table games & 2 free arcade games. There are 7 washers & 7 dryers. There are two hot tub/jacuzzies indoors. A+

I believe you may be reviewing a different campground as there are some n/a items on your list of amenities. Hope you had as great a time with us!

Thought it was ridiculous we could not check in before 2 pm when we showed up early and our spot was open. We were told to come back at 2 and drive back to town. So we sat on the road for and hour and a half waiting.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We can not accommodate early check ins. We advise of that fact on our website, via email, & via a direct phone call to you within 48 hours of your arrival. Please suggest how we might better communicate to enable you to respect our policies, which do benefit all of our guests.

We enjoyed the stay. The altitude is 10k ft but the do have oxygen canisters if needed for people like me who live in FL at 5 ft altitude! The views are beautiful. Very clean restrooms and showers (at no charge). No need for quarters! My grandson loved the go carts. Great staff!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Glad you enjoyed your stay in spite of the altitude, Alice! The effects should not be taken for granted as some folks can become ill from the limited oxygen at 10,000 ft.

We were there for both recreation and my husband working from the camper. WiFi was good, our dog enjoyed the dog park. Temperatures were beautiful, clean bathroom and shower rooms. The pizza we ordered was delicious! Staff members all very friendly and welcoming. We will be back.

Very clean and well maintained camp grounds.

The camp ground was quiet after the sun went down. That makes for a pleasant stay. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Staff was so nice and helpful!! The KOA itself is very well kept up. Can’t wait to go back again. We had our 80 yr old in laws with us and they LOVED everything about their stay there.
Jul 17, 2023
The stay was amazing, i have never been to a KOA before. The spot was very clean and the staff was amazing, one staff member even went out of her way to round me up an onion to make our dinner complete. I would highly recommend this KOA if your in the area.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Glad we were able to make your dinner complete, Richard!

The owner or a manager of the KOA told us that we got two nights free because we went to visit a friend and there was a payment issue which we had no problem paying. It was totally uncalled for to insinuate that we were getting free stay when out camper was still at the campsite. We are very honest people and would never think of cheating anyone out of money.I expected to not be judged so negative

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

I'm sorry that is your your impression. However, your camper occupied a site for 2 days unpaid. Your payment method on file was declined. You did not return calls we made attempting to reconcile. In Colorado, that is known as "theft of services".

Overbearing staff...as every very move I made was under their watchful eye of staff..as if I was a delinquent child about to cause destruction and mayhem. Alway buzzing/speeding about on golf cards as if there was a never ending emergency, Felt more like a penial colony than a relaxing park. I like children and pets but not continuingly running through my site. Never again.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Overbearing staff or entitled guest? You arrived at 10, said you knew check in was 2, stayed onsite anyway. You were ASKED to wait offsite. You blew thru a stop sign on road separating our playgrounds, with kids present. You were ASKED to be safe. Complaining abt employees doing their jobs? Hm...

Groups should be out away from other campers. Noise levels were unacceptable, ruined Saturday afternoon nap. Rules for bears and trash need to be enforced.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Quiet hours are 10pm to 8am and are strictly enforced. If you had unreasonable noise during the day we may have been able to help, but we are a family campground and encourage daytime outdoor family fun. We certainly enforce trash pickup, but the bears just don't understand so it's up to us humans.

The park was good. The sites were very small for a big rig. Outside the rig were very un level and we could not have used our chairs comfortably. I'm not trying to be a wet blanket.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for the review, Brad. Our sites are all about 30'x60' but being built on the side of a hill, grassy areas may be sloped. We typically suggest you park your tow vehicle on the main road when you have a big rig to give you more room on your site. Apologies if you weren't given that info on ckin

Great base for fun hiking in the area. The hiking trail up to Trachyte Knob right there in the campsite was a great challenge and good fun. 3 minute drive to the trailhead for Horsethief Falls, which were awesome. And the campsite itself had as many amenities as any I’ve stayed at. Playgrounds and dog park and DVDs for rent at camp store! Good Verizon service too.

Quiet, well maintained camp.

We had a wonderful week with family! It was easy to check in, easy to pull our camper through, the bathrooms and showers were clean, staff was friendly, the shop was convenient, and the views were great!!!

Was a nice place to camp. Everyone was friendly. Pizza delivery was awesome. Will plan on coming back in the future.

Beautiful views surrounding my campsite.

The views were great, located between two old miners ghost towns and the facilities were kept clean.
Jul 06, 2023
Good stay! Great views and pizza on site!

Friendly staff very clean well maintained campground.
Jul 05, 2023
Beautiful location, great staff and owners, and centrally located to everything!
Jul 05, 2023
The views are stunning. The campground is very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. My only complaint was the sites. They are stacked right upon each other. The pull-thru site was about 10' of gravel and another 10-12' of grass sloping down to the next site. It was also too short for my 35' 5th wheel and truck, No level place to put a chair.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Our sites are all about 60'x30', terraced on the side of a hill, providing for amazing views across the valley. We do recommend you park your tow vehicle in nearby parking when it doesn't fit on your site, however some folks prefer to squeeze em in.
Jul 03, 2023
Great campground. Sites were somewhat close together but were staggered up a hillside so everyone had a view over the valley. The hill was a climb if you were in the top sites. Terrific dog off leash area.

This place is just gorgeous and the staff is friendly.

Absolutely beautiful! The grounds were clean. Did not use the bathroom/showers. The people were wonderful! I can't wait to go back.
Jul 01, 2023
Thank you for the excellent service and amazing views! We had a great time relaxing by the fire and enjoying the stars. The hummingbirds are a fun extra treat as well!

Amazing how the little things can be just as entertaining as the immense ones, isn't it?

Beautiful out of the way place. The weather was nice and cool while the rest of the country was sweltering.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks, Doug! We are a great escape from the heat of the plains with highs in the 70s almost all summer long!

Cripple Creek was our very first KOA. visiting from the UK. On arrival the check in was very easy and professional, followed by amazing information by Connie to guide us to the local area and things to see and do. The site is clean and tidy and well maintained well laid out and made it easy for us to learn about RV kook ups etc. And now to enjoy the rest of our trip Would highly recommend

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We're honored you chose us for your first KOA experience, John. Safe travels on the rest of your US tour and on your flight home!
Jun 30, 2023
The site was a little small but it was a a great place to camp.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Glad you enjoyed your stay, Nick! Our sites are all about 30x60, built for big-rigs of the past. Since we're terraced down the side of the hill, enlarging sites is unfortunately not an option. We do have long-term plans to add a few larger, new sites in the future.
Jun 30, 2023
Very nice campground. Staff was very nice too. My only suggestion would be that the place where the picnic table was located was on flat ground rather than on a steep angle. Table was almost unusable.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Glad you enjoyed your stay, Tom! I appreciate the feedback on the picnic tables. Since we're on the side of a hill, yard area of our sites can be sloped (very sloped on some of them!). We're working on laying gravel pads for tables over time so they're more user-friendly.

Wonderful camping trip to get out of the Texas heat. Beautiful park, well maintained, and friendly staff.
Jun 29, 2023
All the staff were super nice. The camp was clean and well maintained. Even with the RV spots being pull through, they were fairly tight and close together. We enjoyed the pancake breakfast on Saturday morning...very delicious. We had a very nice time at the KOA when we weren't exploring the nearby towns and parks.
Jun 28, 2023
Very beautiful and the staff was very friendly. Very clean and modern.
Jun 27, 2023
Camp sites were clean and level. Staff was super awesome and happy. Beautiful views and spectacular sunsets.

We checked in last night, staying for 8 nights. The staff is all very friendly, campgrounds surrounded by beautiful mountains in all directions. The facilities are very clean. Well maintained campground. Looking forward to the rest of our stay. Would highly recommend to others.

We've stayed here twice and the customer service is always great. They do serve pizzas and pancakes and that's a very nice. The owner is really friendly and committed to campers enjoying their stays. Views are very nice. The only drawback is that the sites are breast to each other and unshaded. Location is awesome as a hiking basecamp.
