Location: Woodland Park, Colorado
Site Quality: Gravel roads throughout the park with gravel pull thru and back in spots. Each site had a picnic table and fire ring.
Type: Commercial
Access: Off highway 67 with good access for big rigs.
Staff: Friendly and helpful.
Amenities: Laundry facilities along with showers and restrooms.
Cellular/WIFI: AT&T and Verizon 3 bars and decent speeds (>25Mb on both). WIFI was available but we did not use it.
What we liked: Quiet, peaceful atmosphere. Felt safe and secure. Site was plenty big for a 41′ RV and the truck. Woodland Park while touristy is still less so than many of the towns going down the mountain towards Colorado Springs. We love the area.
What we didn’t like: While we had a great site, I could see that some of the others might have been a bit too close together for our preferences. Others backed up to a commercial facility while ours backed up to a neighborhood. Although not really a problem, backing up to woods would be better. We were also under pine trees which were beautiful but pine sap dropped on the truck and trailer. Pine sap can be difficult to remove!
2021 Update: We stayed for 3 weeks in June to July 2021 in the same site as our original stay, site 175. We still really like this park and consider it one of our favorite places but after looking at the rest of the sites in the park, site 175 is really the best for us. Many of the other 50A sites were either very crowded or difficult to get into with a big rig. Site 175 is slightly larger than even the ones beside it and is pie shaped giving more outside room and there are no sites behind it just a dirt pathway and then some buffer before houses. While here this time, we also looked at several parks just south of Woodland Park and decided those just weren’t up to our standards. They were very crowded and difficult to navigate with a big rig. Rocky Top Motel and Campground might be OK if site 175 is not available. We also looked at Mueller State Park which has a few sites that might accommodate us. The park itself has a few areas that would be difficult with a big rig but probably doable but the biggest issue is that it is at least 1000′ higher than Woodland Park. We had many nights where we didn’t sleep well at 8500′ because of the thin air and even day time exertion could be difficult at times. Even after 3 weeks at that altitude we still hadn’t acclimated fully. It’s probably best to work our way up to this elevation gradually like we did in 2018 rather than going from Texas to Colorado in 2 days.
