Employees were professional and informative. One suggestion for this site, grade the interior roads! The WiFi strength was awesome!!

Glad you enjoyed your stay, Ken! Completely agree on the state of roads. We had rain every day for most of the summer so it has been difficult to keep up. On the flip side, the rain also means green grass and amazing wildflowers!

Beautiful location. The spots are a little cramped but overall I would say this is one of my favorites.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Some of our sites may feel cramped if you have a big rig next door. They are all about 30x60 and were built for rigs of the 90s. Hope to add some larger sites at some point but since we're on the side of a mountain, not feasible to extend what we have. So glad you enjoyed your stay!

Great site. Always clean, and sites are wonderful. Internet this year was great. Even TMobile/ATT work better this year. Friendly staff and towns around the area have many things to offer.

Thanks for coming for your yearly visit, Dan! I am duly amazed that you got a AT&T signal!!!

Very nice, super friendly people. I loved wandering around the store. Getting pizza delivered to my campsite was so cool! The site was not very level but it wasn't too bad. I'm glad there was a dumping station on the way out, a hand washing station there would have made that perfect.

Thank you, Loralee! Since we're terraced on the side of the mountain, we are able to provide level parking pads but the grassy part of your site is typically sloped. We try to suggest parking all the way to the left of your site so you are stepping off onto the pad rather than the sloped grass.
Sep 06, 2022
Extremely small and unleveled sites leaving no room for my truck. Due to the extreme out of level sites getting in and out of the camper was an issue not to mention how ridiculously small the site was, putting my trailer what I would consider to be dangerously close to another camps fire pit. Additionally, you have the power and water for my trailer on the neighbors site. This is all controllable.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Sites are all about 30x60 with level RV pads. You booked 4days before labor day weekend so you were in a shorter site. You could have used the vehicle parking 50' away. We will NOT be blasting out the mountain and digging up utilities any time soon. I think perhaps you should stick to city RV parks.

Beautiful view and great atmosphere.
Aug 31, 2022
The camp sites are a little close quarters between neighbors and tight length wise. A lot of people have to park in the driveways. The views are incredible though and temps were wonderful in the late summer.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Glad you enjoyed yourselves! Our sites are all about 30'x60. There is parking at the top of the RV hill and by the main building, however folks with larger rigs still often prefer to squeeze into their site, which makes things seem a bit crowded.

Too many "lifers" staying or living there with 5 kids and 4 diesel trucks each running at all hours. Too many dogs pooping in the grassy areas of each spot. People going there for vacation should be told that people are dug in there basically living there. Takes away from the experience. we were stuck in between 2 such groups.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Sorry your experience wasn't GREAT, Kevin! We don't host long-term campers, although you were next door to one of our work campers. We remain a family campground, which means kids, dogs, & vehicles. I do believe there are adults-only campgrounds out there...
Aug 30, 2022
Great place to stay, very helpful staff. Pizza delivery to your camp site and available pancake breakfast in the morning.
Aug 30, 2022
Much fun! Especially enjoyed the kiddies on go carts. Family friendly. I’m a single lady and felt safe here, with my blind guard dog. Ordered pizza & firewood that was delivered by golf cart. I offered a tip that was refused as the driver said he was just doing his job. Looked all summer long and finally found the perfect night sky more larger sparkling than ever.

Best KOA (Cripple Creek) I have stayed at. Very clean facility, great location and view, but the best of all is the owner and staff. We will definitely rebook at this place.

And you already did! :) See you in a few weeks, Edwina!
Aug 29, 2022
Stay was great. Staff was fabulous. Spaces are pretty tight though.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Glad you enjoyed your stay, Amanda! Our campground was built 30 years ago when rigs were a bit smaller. Our sites are all about 30x60 but acknowledged that navigation in and out can require some concentration.
Aug 29, 2022
First time staying at KOA, it exceeded expectations. Very nice campground.

Thank you, Michelle!

What a great experience. The staff was super helpful. The place is clean, beautiful views and many fun activities for kids . We will be back often.

Everything was very clean and organized. The site was beautiful.

Great stay. Great amenities! Love that the showers are separate from the actual restrooms. And everything is super clean. Only thing we didn’t like is how close together the campsites are. Our neighbors were up late hanging out. Because we’re so close together it’s loud.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Glad you enjoyed your stay with us in a Deluxe Tent site, Virginia! We try to enforce quiet hours after 10pm but are not able to patrol the park all night. We provide an after-hours phone number and encourage our guests to use it and give us the chance to address problems when they occur.
Aug 29, 2022
In my opinion it’s a little cramped. Not a lot of room between trailer sites in some places. The roads are narrow and trying to navigate a large trailer around parked vehicles was a little tricky. Over all it was a good stay. We just felt cramped.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

I respect your opinion, Trynton! Our site was built in the early 90s on the side of a hill, so in-and-out can be a bit tight. Sites are all about 30x60 and the advantage of the hillside location is that amazing sunset view across the valley! Glad you had a good stay regardless!
Aug 29, 2022
Pretty neat, secluded tent sites. Rude staff except for the kind man who checked me in. Guests do not respect quiet hours. A steep price for what you get - no water, electricity, and a far walk to the only shower/bathroom. Definitely do not come here if you are not white. I did not feel safe at all.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

I am sorry you did not feel safe here, Michelle! Our site is very safe, and we have several women of varied ethnic backgrounds who camp here alone regularly. We have many families from all nationalities who love it here too. Frustrated I can't hear your story; I've tried repeatedly to contact you.
Aug 28, 2022
very nice, clean. well taken care of. riding up 43 ft towing motorhome 10,000 ft pretty cool. we got in space just find #166, no room for jeep but parked near us. went sightseeing and gambling in cripple creek. very nice staff. order pizza, not bad pizza. frozen crust, but overall ingredients were fresh. use campfire, firepits looked new. didn't used the bathhouse. great 2-night stay.

It was a pleasure meeting you, Martha. Stop on by again the next time you venture up the hill from Iowa!

Beautiful campground!!!! Friendly staff!!! Love the Mountain View’s!!! Only downside was it was a rainy week but never lasted long!!!! Loved our stay everything was within 40 minutes �ϋ��ϋ��ϋ�
Aug 27, 2022
Super clean, friendly and very well maintained. We have been coming to this KOA for well over 20 years and it keeps getting better each time . The owners now really have made nice improvements.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks, Mark! We appreciate you making the trek up from Texas each year!
Aug 26, 2022
Amazing , the staff was the best, and the entire place was so very well kept. We will be back.
Aug 26, 2022
Our site was on such a steep slope, we had to keep our chairs right next to the RV to keep from sitting on really steep ground. We had to take our car off the dolly at the office because the turns were too tight for RV, dolly and car. The views were spectacular!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for the review, Denny. We are built on the side of a mountain and our terraced RV sites facilitate the spectacular views for all. I am perplexed though; many sites are sloped but yours (site 160) has a ~10x20' LEVEL gravel pad around your fire pit. I'm curious why you chose not to use it?
Aug 25, 2022
Nice campground, clean, we did not visit the restrooms or laundry rooms so I can’t comment on them. But the spaces were roomy, and easy to get in and out.
Aug 25, 2022
It was great, especially with the site selling breakfast, my cabin was just rite but I would suggest a bigger heater, The staff were very friendly and welcoming and I enjoyed the hummingbird feeder’s very relaxing to watch.
Aug 24, 2022
As always the staff and accommodation were what we always expect and get.it's one of the best campgrounds we visit several times a year

Thanks for bringing your brother along this time, Ian! See you soon!

Awesome staff. Extremely well kept facilities. Liking forward to visiting again. �

The best camp my wife and I and the grandkids have ever stayed at. Everyone was polite and professional . Amenities and views are second to none we will be back.
Aug 23, 2022
We had the couple's cabin, it was very comfortable and well decorated. A very nice way to just get away from home, and bring very little. The staff was very helpful too.
Aug 22, 2022
Great little campground. Not very many extra amenities, although the pizza was a nice touch. The sites don't seem to have sewer hookups, which wasn't a big deal for us. The cabins and public kitchen cooking area was a great idea. Great service and friendly staff.
Aug 22, 2022
Good views. Very rigid rules and locked bath houses were awkward. Since they are so far away from civilization, more food and drink options would be nice.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Sorry you weren't able to check in early, Ruth, however we do message that constraint to you in multiple documents and with a direct phone call before your arrival. You showed up 3 hrs early anyway, so you were disappointed. We do follow our documented policies for the benefit of all our guests.
Aug 22, 2022
A little to much rain but better wet than dry .overall koa is really nice and pleasant and friendly . Overall I have stayed there probably about 6 times and never had any problems. Thanks . I be coming back . LJW.

ALWAYS WONDERFUL TO STAY HERE MY KIDS WERE BUMMED ABOUT NO MORE GAME ROOM BUT OTHER THAN THAT IT'S ALWAYS GREAT STAYING HERE.
Aug 22, 2022
First time, was impressed and felt restored. Amazing staff, felt so welcomed. Booked my second stay for another date on the spot.
Aug 22, 2022
Great facilities and very friendly staff!

I have stayed at several KOAs but I believe you have the best showers! Enough room, good water pressure, clean, and no nasty smells. The only downside was parking for my motorcycle. Other cabins had relatively flat parking but cabin 4 was pretty steep for a bike and with the rain, the ground was soft enough to be a concern. During my reservation, I did note I was on a motorcycle.
Aug 22, 2022
I love this campground and the people are very nice. The one issue I had was under no circumstances are you allowed to arrive early. We noticed that there were a lot of spots empty during our visit. A whole row as a matter of fact. We were an hour early and had to drive down to the Heritage Center to park. We wanted to just park and not hook up to services. Just so we could go get lunch in CC.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks, Mark! There are implications other than site availability that have necessitated our no early arrival policy. We message that very broadly, yet folks still show up 1, 2, even 3 hours early. Check in time is no earlier than 2. There is plenty of large-space parking in Cripple Creek.
Aug 22, 2022
Enjoyed your place. But wish your WiFi covered all of tent sites (we in t3). Also wish tent area had two prepared sites, because it rained both days for us, and prepared site would have been more comfortable.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Sorry we didn't meet all your desires, but... it's camping! :)

The camp WiFi was slow but dependable...much better than some campgrounds we've been to. Our AT&T hotspot did not work well here. We ended up using the camp WiFi instead. The store and laundry were top-notch and clean. (We never used the bathrooms or showers). The employees were very friendly. This was a nice quiet RV park. The sites were close but adequate. Would stay here again.
Oct 19, 2023
We've stayed here twice and the customer service is always great. They do serve pizzas and pancakes and that's a very nice. The owner is really friendly and committed to campers enjoying their stays. Views are very nice. The only drawback is that the sites are breast to each other and unshaded. Location is awesome as a hiking basecamp.

Beautiful well taken care of campground with lots of amenities. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Loved the off-leash dog area. The only issue we encountered, which in no part is the fault of the KOA, is there is a shooting club located next to the campground and one of our pups does not do well with loud sounds like gunfire and fireworks.
