  • Campgrounds

    There are 51 full-service sites offering water, sewer, and 30/50 amp electrical service. 

    • Also included in a full-service site are a tent pad, picnic table, and fire pit. 

    There are 10 basic, walk-in tent sites that offer a tent pad, picnic table, and fire pit. 

    Limited campgrounds and facilities are available for year-round camping. Starting November 1, 2022, only the Raptor Glen and Meadows campground areas will be open. The Swift Puma and Gobbler Grove campground areas will close and will reopen for camping reservations on March 1, 2023.

    ​During winter camping months, we request that hoses and hose connections do not remain connected to the campsite water spigots. If hoses are left connected to the stem, even if the hose is disconnected from your RV, it may create a vacuum and hold water inside the spigot where it can freeze and damage the water spigot. 

    For general camping information, visit the Cheyenne Mountain camping page.
