Cheyenne Mountain State Park

We had a great spot overlooking the south of Colorado Springs. This made for good views, but a windy location. So windy in fact a tent we had on the site blew away. It was entirely our fault and we thought it was lost, until the rangers brought it back in the morning!

Facilities were great and the visitor's center is worth stopping at. They have a great trail system so make sure to spend time at the park and not just use it as a basecamp for exploring the area (although you should do that too).

There is some noise from the nearby military base, but our family thought the bugle calls were fun.

This park was fabulous! I’m not sure if there is a bad site in the whole park but we stayed at 16. Site 1 also looked great .
We loved having full hook ups. Site was level, clean and well maintained.

The park was close to a grocery store and gas. Anything you need was nearby.

When we arrived the camper services building was still open and was really clean and new. We took showers there the first day but on 12-1 they closed them for the season. We were bummed we didn’t get to do a load of laundry before leaving.

So many quick beautiful hiking trails to explore. We saw so much wildlife!

The wind is a little brutal at night, I wasn’t prepared for that!

We would absolutely stay here again. Wonderful place.

Absolutely fantastic park & campground! It was beautiful. Perfectly maintained sites with area for camper and tent if you like. My husband said the site was incredibly level for connections - best he’d ever seen. There were stairs behind the campsite that led to a really cool area with 3 picnic tables for a group or family get together. Then behind that were trails leading up to a great area where you can play games or let the dog run wild! In the evening the campground was very peaceful and amazingly at 5pm we heard Taps played from, I’m assuming, the Air Force establishment nearby. Definitely want to go again and stay longer!

Spacious, clean, quiet, and relaxing. We spent 14 days here in August and it was wonderful. All the sites are well spaced. Water pressure was a bit low for us, but all other utilities worked well. Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint internet were all 3 below 5mb/s which was odd considering the proximity to the military base and city. Highly recommended state park. One of the best. Come and enjoy!

Hard to get a reservation, but worth the wait.
The sites are large, and easy to get in. Very little leveling required. The hookups and picnic tables are well maintained. OTA television works great, cell signal (AT&T) is strong... all this while you watch deer, turkey, and the occasional bear out your camper window. If you are an early riser you can hear reveille in the morning, retreat in the afternoon.. and taps at 10:00 PM from Fort Carson as well as Cheyenne Mountain AFS. This was rated as the best state park in Colorado... and although I love Mueller: I must agree.

We have never camped in a place so clean & well organized. Both sites we stayed in were extremely easy to get in & out - even for all the big rigs near us. Two water taps & well designed sewer connections. Level sites. Beautiful park with plenty of wildlife. Colorado State Parks hit a home run with this well designed state park, & the well trained staff!

This was a very beautiful,full hookups campground. Well spaced out paved lots on the side of the mountain that gave us a perfect view of Colorado springs and the high plains. Nice hiking right from the campground and easy access to Colorado Springs for sight seeing and shopping. Overall quiet except for the amazing sound of trumpet playing at sunrise and dinner from the nearby base.
