We love Diamond Campground. We now stay all season. It is very quiet,clean and wooded. Great facilities with clean nice laundry, showers and bathrooms. There is a very nice playground with a basketball hoop. The clubhouse is nice with room for many scheduled activities outside and inside. Deer wander thru almost daily. Very nice people.

We've stayed here twice when in the area. Clean restrooms. on the edge of town so near the convenience of town but far away out to enjoy nature. Sites are packed right next to each other in rows, so not much privacy. Big enough for two 4 person tents.

This campground offers flat sites, a playground for kids, clubhouse, laundry, pet area and clean restrooms. They are conveniently located. Easy access to main street, attractions and shopping. I love the trees at this park. Easy to book, family friendly and helpful staff.

AMAZING spot for tent camping! We went with our 7 year old son, and it was very nice. It has all the amenities we needed - a washing sink for dishes, a single bathroom with shower, a power outlet and WiFi. It has a shared gas fire put which made for easy campfire talk after exploring Colorado! It’s about 20 minutes from the entry of Pike’s Peak, which was perfect for us. 10/10 would recommend!
