    Barr Camp front porch

    I've been there just one time, but I'm already planning a return visit. The trail up to Barr Camp is absolutely beautiful. It's well marked and easy to follow. Along the way, you'll be treated to some of the most amazing views in the area. You will also be tested. It's definitely doable, but also a challenge. When you get to Barr Camp, you'll be amazed at the wonderful setup and welcoming atmosphere. It's no 5-star resort. It's pretty rustic. But I feel like most everyone you meet at the Camp will have an interesting story. And at the end of the long hike up (or down from the summit), you'll certainly be ready for a comfortable place to get some food and a place to relax. If you're planning to stay overnight, make sure you have a reservation. They'll take good care of you, but you have to let em know you're coming.

    An absolute must-do experience! We reserved the main cabin so we needn't have carried our sleeping bags (would've saved us some weight). Lots of people that you meet and hang out with...the cabin has a little seating area with books, board games, a guitar, hot chocolate/coffee/tea and they serve the most delicious spaghetti ever! Sleep was pretty comfortable on the mattresses. It is hostel style so there will be other parties sleeping with you. We only had 9 people and the cabin can host up to 17 I think. So we had lots of room. The "necessary rooms" are very clean and stocked with toilet paper. Get torches or headlights for the night. Water source needs a filtration system. 100% recommend this!!

    We did the Manitou Incline at Sunrise then decide to continue to Barr Camp since we had plenty of time left in the morning. This was our first time doing a hike this long at such a high altitude. The path was clear and the weather was perfect. Around 60 degrees but would change periodically. The view's were amazing and the terrain changed from dry to wet and then we also saw snow. Rocky to soft ground to gravel. You experience everything. Some spots were tough because of the altitude but we did it. The Camp area is pretty clean and the cabin is pretty. The couple there were awesome. They offered us pancakes that were delicious. We bought a few shirts and talked for a minute. We also meet the big Chipmunk. FYI he loves unsalted almonds. We plan on doing this trip again and staying the night with hopes of continuing to the summit. I definitely recommend hiking to Barr Camp. If you.think you have it then add the Incline as an added bonus. It's tough but worth it.

    Really run down and sketchy. Stay at Fort Walmart before stopping here (and we have never stayed…read morein a Walmart parking lot). As others have noted, sites are on top of each other and the park seems to cater to families with little camping experience. Seriously, if nothing else is available, stay in a motel.

    Two stars! One for very friendly staff, and the second for convenient location. I for sure would…read morenot choose to pay to stay here ever again. The tent campsites are right on top of each other. Our picnic table was right next to our neighbor site's picnic table; you can share a meal with your stranger neighbor if you wish. The stall doors in the bathroom are comically short; they were cut to about knee height when sitting on the toilet so that your junk is at risk of exposure while you're sitting on the toilet. The campground is also RIGHT off the highway so you go to sleep to loud traffic noise and wake up to it, too. It also backs right up to a residential area, so you can look at the back of folks' houses and hear their dogs bark through night. There were roosters to wake you up in the morning, too (ngl I kinda liked that part). My husband and I are avid hikers and campers, so we've seen a lot of campgrounds. This is my least favorite, right after one of the KAOs in Virginia. During our stay, I playfully dubbed this place "the trailer park of campgrounds," and before you come after me, I grew up in a trailer park (so I would know!). If you need a convenient place to stay, it will do. It's a place to sleep. But if you're wanting privacy, space, and quiet (you know, the things people go tent camping for), then you'll want to go elsewhere.

    Lone Duck Campground - The bathroom stall door doesn't afford as much privacy as you might like! That's just at knee height.

    This RV park is all about the location and service. We went in the winter, so while the amenities…read moremay be great, we didn't use any of them. My only reason for one less star that "great" is that it would have been awesome to have a lil fire pit or grill at the "Deluxe" sites. Aside from that, we had a great stay. Location-wise, we rode our bikes to the Garden of the Gods paths, as well as to downtown Colorado City, where there are ample restaurants, little shops, etc. It's also biking distance to downtown Manitou Springs, which was very charming as well. Service-wise, we requested an early check-in so that we could get set up and have time to ride our bikes to an appointment nearby, and they us to check in a few hours early with no additional fee. They also have a chalkboard in the office with cool things going on in the surrounding area. Another cool feature of this RV Park - it's proximity to the Buffalo Lodge Bicycle Resort. Within less than 5 minutes of walking, this place has live music and cute lil bar that really made our quick getaway weekend.

    An older resort we were kind of surprised we got a "deluxe site" and we're not sure what deluxe…read moremeans. The spaces are so close together and you get a picnic table setting on a slab of cement, the RV's on top of rocks. No trees in the deluxe sites. For the price you pay for RV parks anymore this one does not meet the Mark. If you pay for it in full when you book it, and if you cancel for any reason, there are no refunds. Lots of full-time RVs here. We came in first thing to do laundry, but they failed to tell us that you don't take quarters. You have to download an app that is so cumbersome. We had to call the staff twice to help us with it and we're pretty soggy when it comes to the Internet. Too much work for a Guest staying a couple of nights. We would not recommend this park. The only and I mean only Positive is that it's a good location, very close to garden of the gods and eating places.

    I loved my time spent at Goldfield, I was a long term resident and stayed for a little over a year…read more The front desk is manned by super Nice, caring and helpful people. The laundry and bathrooms are cleaned daily I believe and I never felt like anything was not up to par. It was a very nice and homey community!

    I've lived here full time for about 5 years. During that time I've seen multiple vehicle break-ins…read moreand even had one of my vehicles stolen while living here. I've also had to run homeless people off who were snooping around my RV and belongings. When I first moved in, the park was really nice and well kept. Unfortunately, that's no longer the case. There are several run-down campers in the park even though management supposedly has a "2010 or newer" rule. It seems like that rule is only enforced depending on how the manager feels. If you want to feel like you're back in high school, this is the place for you. The manager clearly has favorite residents who can pretty much do whatever they want and disturb the peace without consequences. Just today one of the residents was screaming and cussing at someone in the shared parking lot with O'Reilly Auto Parts over a parking spot, even though the lot was basically empty. The situation escalated when the resident kicked the door into the person who was walking into O'Reilly's. Police were called and multiple police cruisers showed up to deal with the situation. If that's the kind of environment you want to live around, then this is the place for you.
