The host was real nice! The yurt I had was very clean as well as the sheets. The mattress is really comfortable and slept with the windows open all night with a breeze. Bathrooms are close and also clean. Only reason I gave Location 3 stars is I had to do 2 U turns before I found the place.

Amazing location, the views are beautiful at night and during sunrise. The hosts were very helpful with everything and we had a great time. The Geo Domes were insanely well kept and very clean. Comforting environment. Great availability and the hosts were reachable by text to help out! Can’t wait to visit again:)

Stayed in a yurt for a few nights (unforeseen issues required a pause in travel) bed was comfortable, hosts were super nice and the price was right. It is not a resort, but nice. Happy with my time here.

We had another great summer at Alpine Trails! Alicia and John were the bestest park hosts! Sites are roomy, neighbors are great. My friend stayed in the cabin and she said it super clean and comfy. More clean than ever (she has been there several times). The shower/restrooms were very well maintained also. I hope the laundry machines get an update before next summer….but that’s my only downside.

Omg this place looks like an old rodeo grounds parking lot. No trees no shade just dirt and cut down weeds. It has the facilities you need to get by just not much to write home about. It would be nice if they'd just put a little money in it BUT the campground host Gwyn was a laugh so nice and accommodating, but I don't think I'd come back.

Nice, tidy, safe RV park located across 149 from visitor center. On-site hosts Gwin & David do an exceptional job of monitoring visitors, ensuring guests are comfortable, and keeping park clean and well maintained. On-site laundry, showers, and small but comfortable recreation room with kitchen and fridge. Couldn't give park 5 stars because there are no trees around the spaces to provide shade from Colorado sun and block blowing dust.

After a different place in South Fork had some mishaps with trying to rent us dirty rooms over 4th of July, they referred us over to Alpine Trails, where we stayed the night in the two bedroom cabin on the property, and it was beautiful and super clean! The folks overseeing the park were extremely friendly and accommodating (shoutout to Gwen and her partner). We would definitely stay here again!

We have been staying here for the last 6 years. New greedy owners have bought the park. Rates have more than doubled in one year. Camp host was incompetent with running a small park. They locked the restrooms up on Saturday of Labor Day weekend and said for additional $10 per paid guest we could use them. WiFi is all but null and void. What a joke. We will be looking over the fence next year counting zero campers in this park.
