Rating: 9 7 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Nice campground. We stayed on the B loop, where the sites were reasonably-well spaced. Each site had paved space for 2 vehicles and a tent pad, picnic table and fire ring. The bathrooms on our loop were recently renovated - still only a toilet and sink, but much nicer than the bathrooms we found at Moraine Park and Timber Creek campgrounds. There was also a dishwashing sink at the bathrooms, which is always nice. Location on the east side of the park was great. - wanderfilledlife
Typical NPS campground. Beautiful area but no electrical. Very popular. Campground is located on the east side of Rocky Mtn National Park, near Estes Park, just past the entrance station. Asphalt road and pad, even pad but slightly sloped. Most pads seemed sloped or short or both. No Verizon connection. No dump station at the campground, but we were able to use the dump station at other campgrounds (e.g., Moraine CG, which is deeper inside the park but still accessible from the west side without going over the Trail Ridge Road). - OlderGoat

Rating: 7 9 8 10 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Very crowded, terrible roads inside the campground - scoots46
Nicely situated RV Park. Our site was riverside with lots of foot traffic at times. Level, gravel site with picnic table and concrete patio. Good hookups. Escort to site and help with positioning, much needed with the longer trailers and 5th wheels as interior roads s/w narrow. Community fire pits. Ice cream social and potluck. Many seasonal residents. Good areas for dog walking. - Motorhome girl
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Manor RV Park »We were pleased with this park. It is well located for both visits to Estes Park and trip to Rocky Mountain National Park. Spaces are a bit tight, but there is a nice river. We saw elk right in the park as others have noted. Try to get right on the river even if you pay a premium- you may have a lovely private area at the back of your trailer if it is not too long. This park looks like it is the best rv park in Estes Park. We would definitely stay here again. - Grants Girl

Rating: 4 7 9 9 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: The $59 daily rate includes tax for a week's stay. We were really looking forward to this campground. The website certainly indicates a lovely place to stay along the river. First of all, the entrance off Route 66 is a steep one-lane drive, so be prepared. The campground is not very large and it is very congested, so when you get to the bottom of the drive, stop before you go any further. The people who work here are very nice. We were put in site 1, which backs up to the river. We are a 36' motorhome and our back end hung over the river when our front end was in place. Our neighboring travel trailer had to bring in his awning in order for our slide to open. We were lined up in a row with barely any space on either side. We had a cabin on the other side of us. If you enjoy space to spread out, do not come here. There were not many ratings for this park, probably because most of the sites are used by seasonal people. We did get a strong Verizon signal at this campground. Estes Park is a cute town but very congested also in the summer. We would not recommend or come back to this campground, mostly due to the incredibly tight site spacing. - dbcordello
We chose this park because of the reviews, which are accurate. It's small, crowded, and along a creek, which is only a plus is you are parked by it. The folks in the office are terrific and helpful. The place is pristine clean. Although the location, just outside the national park, is very convenient it is very difficult to get here. We came in from Loveland up 30 miles of winding steep two lane road. Traffic in Estes Park this Labor Day weekend was horrific. Finally, the directions to Paradise are difficult to follow and the street signs in town difficult to read. A tip - come all the way through Estes Park on route 36. Continue all the way out of town almost to the park entrance and go left on CO Route 66. Continue 1/4 mile and left into the driveway, where you will be met by a nice gentleman who will help you squeeze your RV into your space. - Doogiesmom
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Paradise On The River »Very well maintained campsites with deck and picnic table at each campsite. Very friendly staff and immaculately maintained bathroom, shower and the laundry room. Very reasonable to do laundry at $1.25 to wash and $1 to dry. Additional cost of $3.50 per day is charged for cable hook-up. Stream current is too fast to do any fishing but the sound is very soothing. Entry to and exit from the property was guided by the staff because of the extremely narrow road and the campsites. - gartail

Rating: 6 8 10 10 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: A great park right along the Big Thompson River in Estes Park. The sites in the park are dirt and organized with most being back in. There is a small grass area with a picnic table next to each site. There are not many trees in the park, so satellite service will work in most sites. The park had reasonable bathrooms and showers along with a fishing pond and playground area by the pond. The wifi worked fine and they had cable service that worked great. The only downside for us at the park is that they don't accept mail for their visitors. Given the size of their office staff, we were disappointed that we could not get our mail and packages while we stayed here. - Gary Gilliam
The campsites are close together but large enough for us to park our 32' motor home, our toad and a family member's truck. It was very convenient to the park location for the event we were attending and also to Estes Park itself. Parking in town for our toad was great and allowed us to walk the town streets with ease. There's an excellent small restaurant less than a mile away with well-priced sandwiches, hamburgers and gyros. - snabo

Rating: 7 8 10 7 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Pricing on space(s) appeared to be whatever . We had a space next to our friends, both spaces were the same, gravel, level, etc. Full service, we were charged as a Premium site and were never explained why the difference. Additionally, when we registered (two nights), we ask about extending another night and were told there would be not problem. There was a problem, our friends site was not available, ours was. Of course that was not acceptable. Another site was offered at a location to be determined, a distance not acceptable to us. We decided to move on, and marked this RV Camp in our records as not acceptable for the future. - 10Charlie
Although a great place for younger kids, my wife and I also had a great time staying here! In our opinion, this is the best place to camp in the Estes Park area. Although you are not in the town itself, you are only about 10 minutes away. It's been a couple of years since we last stayed here and they have improved the park nicely. They have added several new cabins and a few new rv sites. There is a wide variety in rv sites to choose from. Some sites will not fit big rigs, so ask if you need help. Our site was #061. We have tried to get this site for several years and finally got it! It is a "premium" site and well worth it. It is a back-in site on a hill with a curve, but the host who escorted us to our site spotted for me and got us in perfectly! Very level and spacious! Hookups worked well, but the water was a bit of a stretch! Staff was great and very friendly! One host was driving around in his golf cart with his yellow lab! Can't go wrong there! We will be back! - colochoclab
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park of Estes »This is an awesome place to stay if you have kids. The people who run it have put so much time and energy into making it a great place. Yes it's an older park and it is up the side of a mountain, but the service and activities are second to none. Lots of themed weekends, crafts, laser tag, jump pad......so much to do and the staff works extra hard to take care of people. Their Halloween in September weekends are a total blast. If you are looking for a really fun camping experience, this is it. - Alix1912

Rating: 9 6 5 8 6 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: KOA right on the edge of Estes Park. Tight maneuvering even for our 27' motorhome but the sites were fairly level. Friendly staff helped us get parked and level. Cable tv was available with about 30 channels. decent reception even though we were out further in our loop. Sites are very close together. We weren't able to extend our awning all the way because of our neighbor's camper. Still overall it was a good site. - Rickycardo
Paved and dirt lanes. Gravel and dirt sites. Very crowded park. Few partially shaded sites. - DavidML
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Estes Park KOA »We stayed here for a week Jul 22nd to 30th. The spots are very very tight, water pressure was almost to low to take a shower. I was promised a 50 amp site but did not get one of the 2 only on the park. Vehicles park all over the place preventing cars from getting intyto spots. They put most of their efforts in the cabins and not the rv spots. This is the first bad review I have ever given a rv park in my 7 years on the road. I complained about the radios blairing after quiet hours and nothing was done about it. I will not stay here again and advise others to avoid it unless you are getting a cabin. - Weebeerving

Rating: 5 4 7 6 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Gravel lot with full hook up. No one ventured from their rigs (except an occasional dog walker). Just an adequate place to sleep between enjoying National Park (all camping booked) and Estes Park. No wifi, but cell coverage good. - JustDust6114
If you park in the bottom row and it rains you’ll be in mud. And when it rains it pours! The 35 foot slots are just that 35’. They’ll measure you if they think you are too long. Better to stay in the upper sites (lower numbered sites). The layout of the back ins allows for any neighbors to be too close. Too close to your outdoor area at the rear and on the side of your patio. Other than that the hosts were polite and friendly, the manager not so much. It’s too bad the city doesn’t even make an attempt to improve the drainage. - TRDAWG
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Estes Park Campground at Marys Lake »You don't stay in this park to get to resort experience. This is a slightly overpriced gravel lot with FHUs at a price that's robbery anywhere but in a place like Estes Park. We were tempted to splurge for some spots that were more scenic, but most of those were almost or more than double the rate here. Besides, we didn't come to Estes Park for the CG. We came for Rocky Mountain National Park. With that mentality, this place is just fine. It has some nice amenities like a heated pool, nice playground, cornhole and horseshoes pits, etc. The kids enjoyed riding their bikes as the speeds were pretty well regulated and it was nice to come back to the rig after a long day of hiking and take a long shower instead of a dry camping navy shower. My one gripe of the layout is where your driver's side neighbor's fire ring sits. It's too close to your site so the music, chatting, smoke, etc find their way into your rig. Any time we come back to visit RMNP, this is the first place I'm looking for vacancy. - Part-Time Paradise

Rating: 8 10 8 8 2 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This is a quiet, rustic park with just water and electric hookups located six miles from the town. It is a great place to escape the crowds of Estes Park. The views from many of the sites are beautiful - the Rocky Mountain National Park adjoins the RV Park. No WiFi and infrequent and unpredictable Verizon reception. The sites are somewhat unlevel, but can be taken care of with some leveling blocks. Believe it when they say that no rigs over 22'. It is true! We felt big at 19'. The camp hosts and front desk personnel were very nice and helpful. Our space, A-1, was large, private and with a great view, but was very challenging to get our 19' trailer in place. - alm
This is truly a park that allows you to experience nature at its best. The roads are very narrow so only small trailers under 24 ft are allowed. What a wonderful place to truly enjoy the rockies at their best. Sites are very nicely placed, there is enough foliage to allow for some privacy. Camp hosts were great and were always available with answers to any questions you had. They have added some additional bathhouses which allow for complete privacy for showers. Wonderful choice and we would visit them again on another trip out their way. Loved waking up to all the Elk and deer, very quiet and peaceful. - topsyturvy4
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Estes Park Campground at East Portal Reservoir »This campground is a bit hilly, but that affords some good views of the mountains, which we did out the back bedroom window. We were in space A7, with the playground out the back. There was plenty of room between us and the playground, great people watching and the kids didn't have to go through our site to get to the playground. We were here four nights and enjoyed being in a campground that is well-cared for. The park personnel were very considerate, even when they were doing some construction on another site across the way from us. The restrooms were very clean and well kept-up, plenty of room for showering and hooks for clothing, as well as benches. We will definitely come back here again some day. - rvtraveler61

Rating: 7 7 4 3 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Sometimes location is everything. This RV park is located just outside of Rocky Mountain NP with beautiful views of the mountains, and about 2 miles from Estes Park, plus there was a small head of elk that wandered through the meadow almost everyday. The roads and sites are gravel/dirt with sparse grass in between, mostly level, both back-in and pull-through, mostly open, FHU with 30 or 50 amp, and most have adequate space in between. The bathrooms and laundry in the middle are clean and modern but have very limited hours. There is a very large fenced dog park and lots of space for walking a large dog. The campground is unattractive due to the dust and dirt and sparse grass but everything functioned well and we had a comfortable stay. I would stay here again when visiting RMNP. - JoyceM
Pros: Friendly service, clean campground, really handy to both Estes Park & Rocky Mountain NP, very good dog park. Cons: very few sites with trees or any vegetation except for sparse grass. It seems that they grade the dirt roads frequently so there is often a lot of dust. They require a 50% deposit of your entire stay which is non-refundable. Also, check-in is at 1 pm. There is a $25 early check-in fee! Most of the sites have sufficient room in between except the one we were in. We could not have used the picnic table because our tiny lawn space was on a hill. There are both back-in & pull-through sites - relatively level. Looks like a nice pool that was closed for the season. Miniature golf. Roads are easy to navigate. We would stay here again for the great convenience! - storms
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Elk Meadow Lodge & RV Resort »At first: THIS CAMPGROUND IS OVERPRICED! LOTS OF OVERPRICED!!
The restroom with shower was mouldy, the entrance to the shower I had to stoop myself, the water was running like drop by drop. Bad experience!
The site was wide, but you couldn't clearly see, where is the dirt site, where is the dirt-grass between the sites and where are the dirt-roads inside the campground. Dirt over dirt and our motorhome was as dirty after raining only one day.
NEVER AGAIN THIS CAMPGROUND! - Dietmar
