Foot of the Rockies RV Resort
Overview
Foot of the Rockies RV Resort serves as a convenient and welcoming basecamp for travelers exploring the Pikes Peak region. This year-round facility offers a straightforward approach to RVing, focusing on accessibility and proximity to the area's most iconic natural landmarks. Visitors can expect a clean and organized environment where the focus remains on the breathtaking scenery that surrounds the city. The park provides a reliable resting place for those who want to spend their days exploring the rugged terrain of the Rockies and their evenings enjoying the comforts of home in a secure setting.
Location & Surroundings
Nestled on the western edge of Colorado Springs, the park offers a unique vantage point where urban convenience meets mountain vistas. The location is ideal for those who want to be minutes away from historic districts like Old Colorado City while maintaining easy access to Highway 24. While the park is situated near developed areas, the towering presence of the Front Range serves as a constant reminder of the wilderness just a short drive away. This balance makes it easy to stock up on supplies or dine out before heading into the mountains.
Amenities & Park Features
The resort is designed to accommodate a wide variety of setups, offering full hookup sites with both 30 and 50-amp service. Travelers will find a mix of pull-through and back-in options, many of which are level to ensure a smooth setup process. On-site facilities include modern laundry rooms and private showers, which are well-maintained for guest comfort. For those traveling with four-legged companions, the dedicated dog park provides a safe space for pets to stretch their legs after a long day of driving through the high altitude of the Colorado mountains.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Staying here puts you at the doorstep of some of Colorado's most famous sites. You are only a few miles from the towering red sandstone formations of Garden of the Gods, a must-see for hikers and photographers alike. The historic charm of Manitou Springs and the challenging Pikes Peak Incline are also within easy reach. For a more relaxed afternoon, guests can visit the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo or explore the unique shops and galleries in the nearby downtown area, ensuring there is always an activity available regardless of your energy level.

My husband and I have been at the park for over a month now. I have to say that Terry and Thelma are AMAZING! The park is clean and the sites are all good sized. They have cameras throughout the park. The views are amazing, and so close to many attractions. This place is so popular that you may have to call daily to get a spot, but it's well worth it.

This is a wonderful RV campground right in Colorado Springs. Very near Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak, Manitou Springs and Old Colorado City. Terry, the manager, goes above and beyond to help. Our truck broke down and we needed to extend our stay and she facilitated that. This is a park with quite a few full-time residents, mostly vets, retired vets and retired folks. Pay a little extra for a premium site to be on the upper level and you’ll have magnificent views!!! We pull a 36 foot fifth wheel. Plenty big for maneuvering. We will be back!!!

Where do I start? This RV Park is geared towards long-term stays. My bf and I stayed here two days and couldn't wait to get out of this park. We have stayed in several RV parks and this was the worst. Trashy, yards were filled with clutter and make-shift fences. The park does not do any upkeep on the grassy areas. No amenities available. Our site was located between two messy and unkempt RV's. The site had metal pieces and wires on the ground. My advice would be to stay at an RV park north or south on highway 25 or west on 24.

Very nice office staff, the spaces are large, appears well kept and quiet. Well located. Many of the RV’ers seem to be long term stays. We only stayed 1 night so didn’t do any laundry or ck out the facility. It is up a hill so check in during daylight would be recommended, but plenty of room to maneuver.

What a wonderful place to stay in Colorado Springs. The park manager is a sweetheart. The cost was reasonable, and there is SO much to do nearby. We had an awesome view of the city from our campground, perfect for enjoying the 4th of July fireworks. We had some nice folks from the campground join us to watch them. Everyone is so friendly. I did a load of laundry and it was very reasonable. We had a fantastic dinner at the Pepper Tree Restaurant for my husband's birthday and ate at the Texas Roadhouse, which we walked to. I also walked to Walmart and McDonald's for our breakfast the day we departed. Friends took us to the Glen Eyrie Castle, and it was amazing. I forgot to walk to the Olympic Museum, which was close enough for me. The Garden of the Gods was closed, but we didn't go to see it. We didn't have a tow vehicle, or we would have done a lot more in the area. We will stay here again if in the area.
