Quite area for most the time. Very close to Manitou Lake, about a 10 minute walk. There were more than a few children on bikes. Super great hosts, keeps an eye on whats going on but not in an obtrusive way! Accessible if you need or have question. Spotless toilets. One down side is the sites are pretty close together and from about any site you will see other sites (3-4)and tables.

Quiet and very easily accessible campsite. Lots of pull through sites. Many bathrooms. The only downfall was that the whole site was sloped (which was tricky for us tent users).

Really nice campground in the trees. Nice walk to the lake. Very quiet.

Chris and Kathy, the campground hosts are outstanding, wonderful people! They really care about their guests and take such good care of the campground. Love going there!

The campground is a little tight so finding that piece and quite won't happen at Colorado CG, at least on the inner loops. The positives are the campground is close to many adventures and hikes, a nice lake within a 1/4 mile and the campground hosts were wonderful.

Nice campground , nice host
@TROYB6297396 · Camped on Jul 3, 2025 at Campsite #18
Excellent campground with great spacing between spots. Nice access to the lake which is about a 5-min easy walk. Hosts are incredible and very accommodating! Only 2 spots have electric, so no camper amenities for most spots, but worth it. One of our favorites!

This is one of our favorite campgrounds. Even though it was a busy Fourth of July weekend, it didnt feel crowded since the sites are spacious. Its a nice short hike to Manitou Lake and we always enjoy that as well. We also love camping in all of the wonderful Ponderosa Pines:) Truly a haven up in the mountains.

campground host very friendly and always out and about the campground. Very busy there but they kept up with restrooms. Lovely experience
@YajairaMCB2BE4 · Camped on Jun 27, 2025 at Campsite #68
Great sure site! Very spacious with a lot of trees on fire ring area. No shade in the morning for breakfast time though. Very close to the restroom and water.

The staff on-site were great. Very accomodating.

@MarshallHE4AC1 · Camped on Jun 25, 2025 at Campsite #33
Great location with access to the lake, nice picnic tables in each campground, nice fire pit in each space, toilets were clean, super friendly hosts.
@StevenS1501716 · Camped on Jun 23, 2025 at Campsite #68
Camp host was very friendly. Campsite was clean. Only drawback was a campers use of his/her generator that seemed to be louder than most used in a campground.
@COLLEENA931057 · Camped on Jun 22, 2025 at Campsite #37
The hosts are fantastic! Perfect stay.
@KristinaS69417 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #57
We had a wonderful time at Colorado Camp ground. The camp ground was well taken care of. The host was amazing and super friendly. All the bathrooms were well kept up and clean. We will definitely be back next year!
@MarkA9878568 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #47
We had a great time escaping the front range heat. With Manitou Lake next door (lots of pelicans were resting there) and easy access to trails at Mueller State Park, it is a great place for a weekend getaway. The camp host was very friendly and attentive, too!
@DouglasL894716 · Camped on Jun 12, 2025 at Campsite #37
The hosts were fabulous!
@JanellUC6079A7 · Camped on Jun 9, 2025 at Campsite #56
We were in #56. The spot is not level. You will need extra height on the one side. We had to dig the wheels down just to get our camper leveled. The electrical box is on the opposite end of the camper. You will need at least 50 feet of electrical cord to reach the electrical box. The camp host was great and loaned us the extra length that we needed. Very nice camp hosts and very helpful. It is a nice walk down to the lake.
@JAMESS8693241 · Camped on Jun 8, 2025 at Campsite #40
Nice clean toilets, campsites very well spaced - shade if you want it. Fire pits well attended to - no big left over logs that will never burn. Hosts very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. I would highly recommend this campground and will probably camp here again! Thanks!!!!!!!!!!
@MargaretTCA4F5 · Camped on Jun 8, 2025 at Campsite #78
Beautiful hike around the lake. Must does: Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak.
@KatlynTD712516 · Camped on Jun 6, 2025 at Campsite #29
Wonderful campground close to town but you still feel far away! The camp host was friendly at check in and we loved being able to enjoy live music from our campsite. Clean bathrooms and easily accessible water and trash throughout the campground. The short walk to Manitou lake was wonderful as well. Overall a great weekend, would definitely come back .
@RuthB9803959 · Camped on May 30, 2025 at Campsite #28
Tons of shade, great space between sites, and clean amenities. Manitou Park Lake is a must-see with beautiful views of Pikes Peak. Love the Saturday night summer educational series for kids!
@ErinS5754026 · Camped on May 29, 2025 at Campsite #34
The camp host was very friendly and helpful with suggestions on places to explore. Campground and bathrooms were clean. Biking and hiking around the campground was superb.

We have a longbed truck and a 31' 5th wheel. There are only 3 places there that can handle this length, all straight. Most of the sites are half circles bordered by trees. We were able to get into one of them, but an overhead branch bent the awning bracket and the ground was so uneven that we torqued the hitch and had a devil of a time getting hitched back up. We had to be very clever with ramps on both trailer and truck wheels. The host helped us in getting our previous site refunded, and a better site that was straight and more level. It's a beautiful campground, perfect for small units and tents! There aren't hookups at this campground; only 2 sites have electrical. So reserve early if you need one of those. Once we finally got settled, it was lovely. There's a lake next to it that's about a 3 mile easy walk to, around, and back. Lots of fish there. This is within a 10 minute drive to Woodland Park but feels more secluded than that. Enjoy!

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
