Dakota Ridge RV Resort

Kevin Wenrick

This is our second stay here. It’s a good park with asphalt roads and level concrete pads on the side of a hill. Sites are predominantly shaded. They pack a lot of RVs of all sizes in this park. Navigating the park is relatively easy largely because you are escorted to your site upon arrival. The dog park is very small area with grass and lot fenced in. Not a lot of grass for walking pets. I believe there is a small playground near the pool area but not sure. This is by far the nicest RV Park I have been able to find in the immediate Denver area. Couldn’t get WiFi. Cell 3 bars 5G. Local TV channels seem to work ok. Might want to consider reservations well in advance.

Nice place. Close to Red Rocks. There's a cozy little biker bar across the street. The soothing growl of American motorcycle engines will serenade you to sleep at closing.

The staff are friendly and helpful. I stayed in this park 10 years back. It is not really been maintained very well. The staff tried to keep up but the bathrooms and showers really need a facelift. In the men’s bathroom, they had to cut into the floor for some reason probably Plumbing related and it was never fixed. The doors on the showers and bathroom stalls need to be lifted so that the locks will engage the lighting is missing several bulbs and one was flickering. They try and keep it clean but when the underlying tile work and flooring is ripped up it’s almost impossible. The grounds also need help. The paving has been patched so many times. Several slabs are corrected in the parking spots. Few are truly level. I understand water runoff, especially in a cold snow climate. They added some gravel and attempted to put a plastic border to keep it in place. It would appear that it’s been a complete failure. People have driven over the plastic borders and they’re all cracked. The second spot we were in had a giant spike that they used to secure the border pointing upward. On one side of the park, there’s a bar that at least on the night that I looked appeared to be a biker bar. Let’s have loud music rowdy, motorcycles revving up. On the other side of the park, there is an industrial facility that starts very early in the morning. This is not a quiet park by any means, but it is close to town and you have to weigh that versus be more out in the country in the quiet. This park used to be a lot better. It’s still a nice facility, but it’s not that good as it could be and I think the owner should reinvest in the bathrooms and just cleaning up the overall park. It’s just three on a scale of five Would I go back? Probably but only if I needed to be near town. I would also be much more careful as to site selection.

Breaking up the drive through colorado we stayed here for a night. Although it cost more than anywhere else around it was a pull through spot. Figured it would be easy to get in and out. Was told I’d be escorted to spot. Walked out of the office and Dude didn’t say anything he just took off on his cart. Ok.. was taken to a spot I was told to drive over the bushes to get into because it was so tight… ok.. whatever it’s just for a night. One of the reasons we stayed here was it had on site laundry. Which was out of order. Which they didn’t say anything about. Even after check in she said I’d be able to use it. Not the case. Took the kids to the pool later. Nothing special. Dude comes in right at 8 and tells us pools closed and walks away. No hello or good afternoon or anything. Just attitude for no reason. I ask him about the laundry and he looks at me and says it’s out of order. Ok I can obviously read so I told him I was told it was going to be open later for use and they should let people know if things are closed so we can adjust. He looks at me, ignores me and proceeds to his tools to start testing the pool water. Ok.. WiFi was spotty. Had to end up connecting to my hotspot. For as much as this place cost there shouldn’t be an issue with something as simple as WiFi. About the only thing about this place good was the bar across the street playing good music super loud. Over all bad attitudes, tight spots, crappy WiFi, low grade amenities.

Fortunately/Unfortunately you've found the best RV park in the Denver metro area. The city of Denver has no quality RV parks at all which is very unfortunate for anyone visiting. Most of them are sketchy at best. Dakota Ridge is in a great area with lots to do around. It is a very safe area. Sites are well kept and the staff has always been friendly and accommodating to us. The open space behind the park is nice to talk a walk in, especially if you have a dog. Now for the unfortunate part. The sites can be very small. The biker bar with the outdoor stage across the street is brutal if you are on the north end of the park. We have stayed on the south end of the park and it is more manageable. Some of the amenities are a little run down. The price is also steep for what you get. Would I stay here if there was a nicer option around, probably not. However considering the other choices in Denver, this park is heads above the competition. There are some state/county parks in the area that have RV sites. Good luck getting a site though unless you book months and months in advanced. Denver is just too big and the rv camping is so limited.
