Riverside walk-in site #3
Great site depending on your priorities and requirements for your trip. This spot was super easy, convenient, with lots of amenities in a beautiful setting. Kids and I were there for just a night and had a great time down at the beach and an absolute blast in the bike park. If your priorities are quiet, having some space, or looking for true camping in the outdoors this is not a good fit.

Riverside walk-in site #5
It was lovely being by the river, however the steps are steep and uneven, as well as the area around the fire pit. It was hard to use the fire pit at all and both my kiddos fell multiple times. It is also not private with the rope course looking down on your site. The port-a-potties were in need of cleaning for the first two days and finally got it the day before we left. My guess is with the large troop next to us they needed an extra cleaning. Overall, I found nothing about this site that would entice me back. It wasn’t what I was hoping my kid’s first Colorado camping experience would be and was too expensive for the difficulty of the site with lack of privacy.

Great place to share the outdoors
First off, the directions from Hipcamp's "get directions" feature are wrong. If you stay here make sure to manually input the directions in the GPS. The good: the site is beautiful. The Arkansas River is stunning, the river keeps the site cool, produces an endless supply of driftwood, and bugs aren't bad because the water moves fast. It's shady and much more comfortable than the drive in sites look. The bad: this is not a private site. They seem to send 4 rafts down the river every hour and they can see your whole camp site. There's a giant light on the campground that obscures the stars. People hike down from the drive up sites to fish on the shore by your campsite. The meh: playground was so uninspired we didn't bother showing it to our 4 and 6 year old. Parking across the campground prevents packing out at night. My T-mobile phone had a roaming signal. Lots of structured outdoor adventure activities around which I'm not in to but maybe you are.
