Beautiful campground nestled in the woods. Very quiet and peaceful. Roads are gravel and red dirt, which is what you get in Colorado. Staff very friendly and helpful. Weekend breakfasts very good. Had rain one day, causing some flooding in the street which dried up quickly, and staff were very attentive of leveling any ruts. WiFi good; cable good; no phone service. Water pressure was fine during our stay. About 30 minutes to Cañon City or Colorado Springs. Easy drive on Highway 115. We camped at Mountaindale Cabins & RV Resort in a Motorhome.

Fun Gondola ride at Royal Gorge Bridge in Cañon City. Don't bother going to Broadmoor Seven Falls. You need to take a shuttle ($17 pp) and the waterfalls were not anything special. Took the trolley ($17 pp) tour in Garden of Gods which was very good. Excellent lunch in Old Colorado City at Jake and Tellys Taverna, an authentic Greek restaurant.

Great location on the outskirts of Colorado Springs. Staff is very friendly and helpful. No ATT cellular service though until you get closer to town. Only complaint is that there were dogs that were left outside of their camper tied up and barked a lot over multiple days. Surprising that this site was close to the office and there is a written pet policy against it. We camped at Mountaindale Cabins & RV Resort in a Motorhome.

This was our 4th stay at the park and it has changed considerably over the years. The park is now dominated by full time residents which have taken every space away from the road up the hill behind the office. Travelers are in the lower part of the park close to the road. At 6am every week day the gravel trucks start to run until 3pm. There is at least one truck, on average, every minute and many times 3 or 4 trucks pass in a group. I realize the park can't control the trucks, but future campers should be aware. The sites are nicely graveled, but the roads are down to the dirt so there is a considerable amount of dust. The park wells are dry so water is trucked in during the day. In the morning the water pressure is very low. I measured it at 15 psi. Once the tanks are full the water pressure go up to 45 psi. We camped at Mountaindale Cabins & RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.

Stayed here for 8 nights in late June. The 8th night was free. We really like this park. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Sites were large and well maintained. Lots of shade, but we were still able to use our satellite. Very, very quiet at night. No cell service on ATT or Verizon. The WiFi was basically unusable - especially in the evening when all of the data hogs started streaming. There is truck traffic on the road Monday thru Thursday. They go slow and we didn't hear them. Good place to relax. Not a good place if you need cell or reliable WiFi. We camped at Mountaindale Cabins & RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a nicely landscaped park with gravel roads and sites and lots of trees. No ATT signal or OTA TV. There is cable in the front part of the park, though those sites are closer to the road and the traffic noise from the gravel trucks that is mentioned in other reviews. WiFi was decent at times and unusable at other times, probably when traffic was high. The park is a little pricey for the amenities but we would stay here again.

Friendly staff at the campground. Most sites are somewhat shaded and have decent space plus table and fire ring. Full hookups at all. Unfortunately we had to move 5 times over 3 weeks. There is negligible cell service at the campground. Wifi is hit or miss. During the week there is tractor trailer traffic to and from the quarry 6am to 5pm. Heard/felt artillery or tank rounds from Ft Carson during some nights. My main beef is the price is comparable to a KOA, but there is no pool, jumping pillow etc. We camped at Mountaindale Cabins & RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.

Stayed four nights. Campground was full; there seems to be many regular's that have there RV there full time. Campground is nice. It's a bit dusty, mostly due to the drought going on. All gravel roads. There is no reception for my phone or TV (none) ;got this complaint from my fellow campers as well. There is cable but beware its not at all the sites I found out after I settled in. There is wildlife in the park deer seems to hang around there most of the day which is nice, also was a bear in the park not so nice but rangers where present to handle the bear. Its not a bad park its not a park for us no TV is a bummer for us and no phone you can use the office phone if needed. WiFi was pretty good. Will not go back to this park.

Very nice park in the foothills of Colorado Springs. It has a rustic feel with frequent sightings of deer in the park. The sites were spacious with enough room for our 40' motorhome and toad and plenty of room left over to use the picnic table and fire ring. Wifi worked. 50 amp power and sewer worked well. The area is under drought restrictions and they are hauling water in for the campers and they ask to please limit your water use. We camped at Mountaindale Cabins & RV Resort in a Motorhome.

This park is approximately 30 minutes from the main areas of Colorado Springs in a rural area off of Highway 1 1 5. Exceptionally large well landscaped sites with a large rock base are available. Our site was 40 by 70 and contained a large number of trees and shrubs which gave it a private feeling. Many of the sites are terraced which gives you privacy for your well placed utility hook up from the neighbors. There is a nice fenced dirt dog yard as well as a partial perimeter path along the park to walk dogs. While we did not participate they have ice cream socials and other events on a frequent basis. The major downside to the park, and the only reason we did not give it a 10, is that it sits on a road which has a quarry at the end. During the week large semis moved constantly up and down the road from 06 30 until about 5 p.m. Sites further back in the park might not have had quite the noise that was created by heavy traffic. Cable television was adequate though some of the channels were fuzzy. The provided free internet worked well. Both Verizon and AT&T had limited service until closer to Colorado Springs.. Mlm.

Large, level sites with lots of trees gave you the feeling you were camping in a state campground. We arrived after the office closed but were met at the entrance and guided to our site. The staff was great and helped us get backed in and set up quickly. 50 amp power was stable and good, water pressure was 55 psi, dump port convenient. OTA TV is non-existent. Cellular and hotspot signals are non-existent. The park WiFi was decent. Their cable TV however was pretty awful. The picture on most channels (lower ones especially) was very grainy and fluctuated from bad to worse. All things considered, it was a minor inconvenience and forced us to enjoy the beauty of the area instead. Deer wandered thru regularly and a turkey called out to us one morning. The campground was very clean and well organized. With trails available, hot-tub, playground and a small game room there's something for everyone. We really enjoyed our stay and will come back again.

This park is AMAZING! We stayed here for a short weekend getaway. When we arrived we were met and guided to our space. We didn't bring a tow vehicle, and forgot a few items, which we were thrilled to find they had in the well stocked camp store. They offer movie night and waffle breakfast. This is a family park and you can tell. The best part for us was the wildlife. We were greeted by a heard of deer. We loved our stay and will for sure be back!!

Really nice RV park. As others have said the sites in this park except sites 1-10 are the largest sites we have encountered. The park is mainly full-timers, but in this case it is an asset. All of the people are super friendly and have organized activities during the week (bingo, taco Tuesdays, breakfast waffles, Halloween party... ). Very strict on the rules but that is what keeps the park looking so nice. Cell coverage was marginal with Verizon. The only real ding is the price. The water pressure would fluctuate a lot, between 20 an 65 psi. We will definitely be back. We camped there in a MH. We camped at Mountaindale Cabins & RV Resort in a Motorhome.

The best RV Campground in Colorado Springs that we have stayed in! A very helpful, friendly owner and staff that will go out of their way to make sure your stay is a pleasant experience. A family atmosphere that's quiet and well designed for privacy with gorgeous, spacious and level sites, great WiFi, abundant wildlife and beautiful landscapes. They have clean restrooms, laundry facility, a great lounge and pavilions for family and group use. Pet friendly, rules are well observed! Great walking paths and short hiking trails with some biking possible! You won't be disappointed when staying at this wonderful campground!

Fun Gondola ride at Royal Gorge Bridge in Cañon City. Don't bother going to Broadmoor Seven Falls. You need to take a shuttle ($17 pp) and the waterfalls were not anything special. Took the trolley ($17 pp) tour in Garden of Gods which was very good. Excellent lunch in Old Colorado City at Jake and Tellys Taverna, an authentic Greek restaurant.

The Royal Gorge train is nice but doesn't match the Durango-Silverton ride but is nice. We thought El Caporal in Canyon (Canon) City an excellent restaurant tho the margaritas were not quite to our taste.
RedHorse1 • September 2017 -
Its about 26 miles from Canon City and about 24 miles from Colorado Springs..... Royal Gorge....rafting.....shopping...Pikes Peak.....etc. all without staying in the hustle and bustle.
Billbo • September 2017 -
So many things to do. We loved the train at the Royal Gorge but were unimpressed with the cog train at Pike's Peak. Manitou Springs was beautiful and our favorite place was the Garden of the Gods.

If you go into Colorado Springs, you will enter the Interstate at Academy. Camping World is just a couple of exits down. There is a great fried chicken restaurant very close to the park, but it is only open on week ends.
Seabreeze Texas • August 2016 -
This is a great location for activities in both Colorado Springs and Pueblo. If you have pets, consider bringing a sizable rug as the rock is hard on them for a long period of time.

It is 20+ minutes into Colorado Springs. "Best fried chicken in Colorado" across the street was not.

HolyMackrelAndy • July 2016 -
It's 30 minute or so drive to Colorado Springs if you doing the tourist thing, but it's a nice one.
RLM • July 2016 -
Stock up on groceries before arriving. Ask for not only the wireless password but the connection name that is best suited for your site (there are several). If you have AT&T, set up Skype before arriving. If you want satellite service, be specific about the location so they can assign the right spot. Check-in is straight ahead at the office when you pull in.
Kamnel • July 2016 -
We had a family of 4 (including a 6 & 9 year old). Local activities: * Canon city (Colorado Jeep Tour & Cowboy Chuckwagon - excellent!!!) * Canon city (whitewater rafting with River Runners on Bighorn sheep canyon - excellent) * Cripple Creek - Mollie Kathleen gold mine was good, the railroad is a complete rip off and for the drive it was so -so...not meant for kids

This park is out in the country. My husband spent some time fishing. The Arkansas River is not too far away and there are nice ponds just a few miles down the road. It is a bit of a haul into Colorado Springs, although we went into town several times. If you want a beautiful quiet place out in the country, this is it.

About 45 minutes from the Royal Gorge Railway which is a fun trip. Rapids/rafting is nearby also. Nearest Safeway grocery story is about 20 minutes away. There's a interesting one way drive near the prison in Canon City. Hard to find, but worth it, look for an archway on the far side of town on the north side. Phantom Ranch road was closed due to spring flooding, but its supposed to be a great drive if you have a jeep or similar vehicle.

We visited Garden of the Gods, Manitou Cliff Dwellings and Pikes Peak from this location

A trip to the Garden of the Gods is a must.

We have been going here for years there is so much to see and do we still haven't completed everything on our wish list. The list grows a little each year.

too many things in the area to list, but don't miss Pike's Peak and Cripple Creek.

Colorado Springs is about 15 miles from the resort. From there you can adventure out to all sorts of sightseeing locations.

You're probably about 9-10 miles out from some restaurants, etc if you want to go somewhere to eat/shop.

Colorado Springs has become SO commercialized and crowded it's no longer a great destination. The Flying W Chuck Wagon dinners are a thing of the past, the Garden of the Gods is now in a residential section of town, and traffic is miserable. Sorry!

Park is located about halfway between Pikes Peak and the Royal Gorge, so it's good location for sight seeing.

Get hiking nearby - Drive to Helen Hunt Falls and hike on to Silver Cascade Falls. Next, stop by the Mt. Cutler trail and hike to a beautiful view of the Seven Falls. These are easy to moderate hikes and are good hikes to help you adjust to the altitude. We also recommend Garden of the Gods which you can view driving or hiking. The Air Force Academy tour was very good and we also had a great time taking backroads with our four wheel drive toad.

It's about 15 miles south of Colorado Springs, Co. And about an equal distance drive in any direction to the many local attractions. Pike's peak, Royal Gorge etc.
