We had a wonderful stay at Spruce Lake. The park itself is located just a few miles from the Beaver Meadows entrance to RMNP.

We had a wonderful stay at Spruce Lake. The park itself is located just a few miles from the Beaver Meadows entrance to RMNP. There is a river (the Big Thompson, I believe) that edges part of the park. We weren’t close enough to be able to hear the river from our site, but we did go sit by the river some. There were benches and picnic tables provided for this purpose.
We encountered a lot of wildlife within the park. There is a small lake near the office. While we were there a pair of Canadian geese hatched a clutch of fuzzy little goslings on a little island in the lake. We also had lots of deer and elk visit. Our dog enjoyed using the dog yard, but there was a big bull elk who liked it also. He would come jump into the pen to graze and nap, which rendered to dog yard unusable for a few hours, but what are you going to do? 🤣
The bathrooms and laundry facilities were very clean and in good working order. We didn’t use any of the other amenities because we were too busy enjoying Estes Park and RMNP.
The staff were very pleasant and kind and we would definitely return here.

Got a last minute spot at this park and got there 5 mintes after the phone call. Dealt with several staff members who were all very friendly. Stayed right next to the river that goes around the camp ground. Great spot.

We were in a group of 13 coaches for a 4 night stay. Unfortunately the night before we were to leave we discovered our RV wouldn’t start. Although the tow truck was supposed to arrive at 9am, they were delayed until after 4. Even though the park was half full, they charged us an extra day. I felt they definitely took advantage of our situation when it was unnecessary. Our group(s) won’t be returning.

There’s also a nice grassy path next to the river for dog walks and dog poo stations. Can you tell we have dogs? We could walk to the grocery store in 5 minutes and to a nice restaurant called Wayfinder next to the grocery store. I highly recommend breakfast at this restaurant! You’re in luck if you have tmobile. High speeds (300+ mbps) here.

This campground was great for us. It was close to downtown plus close to Rocky Mountain National Park. There was a pool but we didn’t use it because the weather was cool. The laundry facility was clean. There are some shops and a market right up the road. We saw two elk right in our campground which was cool.

We stayed a couple of night here. Fishing on the Big Thompson was great, if you can find the "holes". Campground facilities are well kept, but it is a bit crowded - but it is close to RMNP and Estes Park. We would stay again for sure!

This park is within minutes of Rocky Mountain National Park and downtown Estes Park, so if that's what you're looking for, that's what you'll get here. They have a cute fishing pond, and a pool that was closed due to COVID restrictions. The Big Thompson River does flow right by the campground, it's a fast flowing stream about 20 feet across that you can dip your feet into.
All of the campsites here are VERY close together. The photos on their website don't really show the campsites, and that's probably why. Our campsite was dirt, hookups, and a wooden log that demarcated our designated site boundaries. We barely had room for our 28' trailer, truck, and provided camp table. Larger rigs were using two back-to-back campsites to accommodate their length. Most other reviews I've read for other area campsites are similar, you'll be uncomfortably close to your neighbors and this was no different.

We have been to a lot of cramped RV parks, but this one took the cake. This park is a chaotic dust field that nickle and dimes you for everything. The other campers were some of the worst we have been around (probably bc they were all annoyed too).
Maybe I could have looked the other way if we had liked Estes Park, but honestly, we have no interest in going back. The downtown is a fake tourist trap with no real charm, CO prices are ridiculous, and while the park is pretty it is packed and just not worth it.
We were able to work via cell signal though.

We reserved 2 nights and was told they charge for 3 but refund the 3rd. We get there and it’s a whole other policy and it’s our fault. It’s was unbelievable and the worst rv experience in Colorado. The owner is from out of state. Please do not give your money to this company. Look elsewhere.

“Warning, Terrible Business practices!!! They do NOT do refunds for ANY reason”
noted 1/25/2023
Warning!!!! Read the fine print in the reservation form or you’ll be out HUNDREDS of dollars. The parent company of this RV park KEEPS all deposits if you cancel your reservation. Awful business practice. If you have to stay here, make sure there is 0% chance of a cancellation.
I had to cancel for a death in the family and they just didn’t care. Sad! Selfish! Awful!
