Great location, close to mountain trails and highways. The noise isn't too bad at all. They are about the same price as other similar places in the area. A few additional perks include the proximity of various amenities: the Lifetime gym is just 8 minutes away, Whole Foods is 6 minutes away, and a car wash is conveniently located 3 minutes away. There are many restaurants nearby, along with some cool bars. Overall, this RV park is one of my favorites. Oh, and Amazon delivers here very quickly. Considering all the perks of this RV park, I highly recommend staying here for both short and long stays.

I'll go ahead and warn you cause the owners are aware but dont tell you. The bar across the street is SO LOUD. They play terrible music until 10pm every day and once that stops the motorcycles start revving their engines. You will get little to no sleep here. I even asked the front desk after the first night how long the music goes on for and the lady shameless said until 10pm. They just don't tell you this when you book. The wifi did not work. The restrooms were closed for cleaning for more than 3 hours a day. They padlock the dumpster for some reason at night. Also they charge $5/ per day FOR EACH CHILD. We paid over $300 for off season for three nights and it was one of the worst experiences at an RV park I've ever had. Save your money and go elsewhere.

They turned us away because my Van wasn’t pretty enough or converted enough? Don’t waste your money on these turned up noses of a so called RV Park operators. We have travel from coast to coast and have never been turned away because they had to view Photos of our van pre reservation! What a shame!

Very nice city RV park. Close to Denver, Red Rocks and day trips to the mountains. Spots are close together (as you would expect) but level and full hook ups. There are many back in as well as pull through sites. There is a small pool and laundry on site. The staff is friendly and helpful. There is also access to a nice trail. There is evidence of some deferred maintenance and the park is very full (summer). There is also some road noise, some noise from nearby industry, and noise from live music at two nearby bars/restaurants. Overall a very good stay though.

Conveniently located near Denver but still far enough away from the chaos. Nice clean amenities- laundry, bath house, pool, club house. 4 stars due to the layout of pull-throughs- you open up and share a common area with your neighbor. I think the new owners are taking pride in their campground and making improvements as they can. It is across the street from a Biker bar so plan on loud live bands. We enjoyed sitting out and listening to them.
