Our campground is at 10,000 feet elevation; please do not underestimate the effects of altitude! Altitude sickness can be a serious health concern and at a minimum one can expect shortness of breath and to be easily tired if not acclimated. To minimize the effects, drink plenty of water, limit alcoholic beverage intake, and limit strenuous physical activity until acclimated.  If possible, camp at gradually increasing elevations on your way to our KOA (i.e. spend a night in Colorado Springs, spend a night in Woodland Park before coming up).  We do sell small oxygen bottles and herbal remedies in the store for those that need help adjusting.

We are in Black Bear territory and there are several bears known to live in our general vicinity. All food and trash must be locked inside your camper or car at night. Trash should never be left outside (dumpsters are across from the main lodge building to the South). If tent camping, we suggest you also keep any perfumed or scented personal items locked in your car and refrain from using them while camping. Please see our posted flyer regarding what to do if you encounter a bear in the wilderness.

WiFi is available at no cost, however service is very limited due to our remote location. Media streaming is prohibited. When campground is full, service will be slower. Outlying campsites and cabins will experience slower service. If you have problems connecting please ask staff for assistance.

AT&T subscribers will have NO cell service on our campground.  We have no influence over where providers locate their towers, and have no control over this gap.  Service for other providers ranges from excellent (Verizon) to adequate.

All sites have a maximum occupant limit and only one unit (tent, RV, cabin) is permitted per site. Please check with office for second tent options on tent sites. Tents are not permitted on RV or Cabin sites.
Please do not park on the grass. Vehicles that do not fit entirely on your gravel site pad without blocking the road must be parked in designated parking areas.

No aggressive animals allowed.  Even-tempered pets are welcome but must be kept on a leash whenever outdoors.  Campers are responsible for their pet's behavior, any damage caused by their pets to our property, and for cleaning up after their pets (we provide poop bags throughout the campground).  There is a small one-time fee for pets camping with us.

Teller County burn restrictions are enforced.  When the county allows wood fires, they must remain contained in campsite fire rings.  Firewood is available for sale in the store and propane fire bowls are also available for rent.  Cutting down of trees and burning large fallen tree trunks is prohibited.
