Silverton Lakes RV Resort

We first stayed in the deluxe site that had a porch with a couch and propane heater coffee table. What I did not like about this site and many of the sites on the road is they were not level. Before putting blocks under the wheels, it had the front wheels completely off the ground and still needed another inch. We decided to stay a few more days and moved to the South side. Great level pad, clean bathrooms and laundry, and moose walking through the campsite each morning. Loved running the jeep around the trails and good food in town. Really enjoyed the museum and worth every penny of the $12 entry fee. Was able to easily work remote with T-Mobile and stream movies at night. Starlink is pretty fast here as well. Really appreciated the weather as it was 95 in Denver and 110 in Texas and 68 here.

This resort is best suited for OHV users since the mountains and dirt roads are off-road heaven. Ninety percent of RV were toy-haulers. We stayed over 4th July weekend and had a blast. The hosts are very helpful and eager to please. Their office area is also stocked with food, ice cream, and RV accessories (should you leave something at home). One downer - wifi access is limited to sitting in their store area (one table and one counter area) and is still slow. Lots of dust around here so be prepared for that. Back-in RV sites are close together, limiting privacy, and uneven should you want to pitch a tent (which costs extra). We felt a little crowded with our neighbors, but people are mostly inside their RVs. Pull-through sites had a little more room. All-in-all, a good experience and a good value.

The people are very friendly. The campground is very close to town and it is a lovely little town to visit. Check out the miner's museum.

The campground is small with nice views of the mountains. The sites are very close to each other. Too close. The WiFi was weak at our campsite but they did offer to use their wifi at the office. Cellular was good (Visible on Verizon). I used my HotSpot for wifi.

I thought it was overpriced. I would stay there again in a pinch. We also stayed at Kendal Campground just outside Silverton. Free and great spots.

We were in the south section of the campground very close to town, we could walk anywhere in Silverton, it was so nice! The campground itself was well maintained, as were the laundry and shower facilities. Our site was level and the utilities were all easy to access for setup. Access to Jeep/ATV/UTV trails were right out of our site, you don't even have to get on the main road and there are some amazing trails here if you are Jeepers like we are. We liked it so much here we are going to stay for a month next time. Highly recommended!

On our way to Silverton, we were in an accident in our RV. The RV was done for. I called to explain the situation and the lady said they would only give me a partial refund. I asked why and she said it was their policy. I asked if it was the same even though we had to cancel due to an accident. She said,”well we didn’t cause the accident.”

I told her that was bad business practice and bid her a good day.
