Golden Eagle Campground

The staff was nice so that’s why they are getting 2 stars. Other than that, we almost dragged our back end going in and out of the campground. We were within 3 inches of dragging. If you are longer than 30 feet you should not be using this campground. The playground was absolutely pathetic and so run down I wouldn’t let my daughter play on it. The grass probably hadn’t been mowed in weeks. The trees are all overgrown and will Hit larger rigs. The power pole was shared and the water spigot was in the ground so we couldn’t attach our filter. The sight was horribly unlevel as well. There are long term rigs there that are trashy. Overall I would recommend going anywhere else.

The person checking us in, Nik, was warm, friendly, funny, and enthusiastic. We got site 137 and if you like shady areas with minimalist camping it’s *almost* perfect. Not the ideal for ground sleeping but still very comfortable and most importantly for us it felt homey. The site owners, the May family came around 5:30pm asking if we needed firewood or anything and mentioned they’d be back around 9:30 for last call which was very nice as we had just gotten settled in for the day. The showers and bathrooms were almost perfect, the only want would be a little wider stalls and curtains for the showers, but that’s easily outweighed by the fact that I had to adjust the temperature DOWN and I take some pretty hot showers. Seriously, hottest shower I’ve had, even better than a motel! The only real complaint I have about site 137 is that there were two trees right in the middle of the tent area, not even far enough apart for a kids hammock, but we set our tent right in front of the opening and it was like a cute and cozy archway for us. They also had plenty of information regarding black bear safety that I notably didn’t see at another campground we stayed at earlier this week. As well as a fishing lake and campground hiking trail if you’re inclined. Easily one of the best campgrounds I’ve ever stayed at and I can’t wait to visit again with a better planned stay!

Overall, the experience was good. It was a bit confusing at first to figure out which space was ours and which fire pit belonged to us, but by talking to others at nearby campsites, we figured it out. The staff is always making rounds, either to sell firewood or just to check in. They have two lakes—one for fishing (which you have to pay for), and another one, but when I went, it was dry. That really bothered me because you don’t find out until you arrive and they tell you. They should improve in that area by informing visitors ahead of time or posting it on the website for those who are expecting the full experience. The bathrooms are more than adequate—always clean and the hot water worked. The showers are a bit small, but you can still get a proper wash. There’s not much to do, honestly. The hiking trail is just a short 1/2 mile path, not very impressive, but it’s something. The fishing lake has a nice view and is peaceful—I recommend waking up early and having a coffee by the lake. They should add more benches in that area, as there’s only one.

I enjoyed camping in Golden Eagle. I stayed here for one night in site 232 during my visit to Colorado Spring. I really love this campground. The staff are really helpful. They are always accessible for any help and provide a very clear Map to your spot that I have never seen anywhere else. They keep the facility well maintained. The showers and restrooms are always clean.

We love this campground. Friendly helpful staff. I love that they make regular rounds to insure everyone has a safe and fun time. Bathrooms are always clean and accessible. Next time we will stay a few more days! A great place to bring the family. Thanks for everything! See you again soon!!
