Cheyenne Mountain State Park Campground

A great - small - State Park. We have stayed her multiple times and we will come again. Very clean, modern and the camp spots are large. No shade to speak of, so prepare accordingly. You can spy on NORAD while you are there as it is litteraly a stones throw away. 20 miles of well laid out and marked hiking/biking trails. Not in the heart of COS, but very close to everything you need to make your stay comfortable.

Absolutely fantastic park & campground! It was beautiful. Perfectly maintained sites with area for camper and tent if you like. My husband said the site was incredibly level for connections - best he’d ever seen. There were stairs behind the campsite that led to a really cool area with 3 picnic tables for a group or family get together. Then behind that were trails leading up to a great area where you can play games or let the dog run wild! In the evening the campground was very peaceful and amazingly at 5pm we heard Taps played from, I’m assuming, the Air Force establishment nearby. Definitely want to go again and stay longer!

This was one of the best State Parks we have stayed at. Bathrooms and showers were very clean. Didn’t like having to pay $1.00 for a 4 minute shower. Nice trails, however, they seemed more for mountain biking than hiking.

So the wife and I we have a conversion man and we were camping on Mount Hermon she had a bad feeling so we decided to leave and go to Cheyenne mountain campground got there got the last site with the most beautiful view you pull up with your van you plug everything in there's a couple steps down to the seating area with a fireplace in the benches and then it has a 15x15 site with automatic anchors already there so you don't have to struggle to put your post in your spikes the view at night was gorgeous I The view during the daytime was pretty but night time the whole springs is lit up you can see everything great place to go specially if you're going to go hang out the Cheyenne zoo

We made a 11 State tour of some 3000 miles.
Cheyenne was one of the best campsides we had !
Great experience.

Beautiful campgrounds that are dog friendly. Sites are paved for RVs, #55 was nearly perfectly level, but I needed 1” on the driver side. Sites also have a gravel tent pad with tie downs. The sites in the loop I was in all had full hookups. The sites weee also fairly private, spaced far apart and some had the landscape of the mountain between them. The view of the mountain is gorgeous as well plus a perfect view of the summertime sunrise. There was a little road noise from the nearby highway but hardly an issue overnight.

We were lucky to score a back view of Norad! It has leveled site and enough space for our rig and truck. One of the best state parks with full hookups. Depending on the loop, you can the views of the city which is very close by.
If you want a place nearby the Springs, easy to Manitou and Pikes Peak - this is your place.
The disadvantage is that there are no trees so not a lot of coverage from the sun. Your aircon will be on all the time. The wind! OMG! It's ruthless! Be careful with your awning and gazebos because they will break it.

Loved just about everything about this campground. It is well situated to all that Colorado Springs has to offer. The facilities are spotless, showers clean and great water pressure with plenty of hot water. The sites are raked gravel with concrete parking pad. There isn't much shade so it can get hot. Also, many sites have little privacy between neighbors, but they are well-placed apart. Our site, #26 in the Swift Puma loop was a full hook up and nice with scrub pines providing privacy between us and our neighbor, and with the RV backed in, we had our RV providing privacy on the opposite side.

Loved this campground.

Nice state park on a mountain with great views. No wifi, but we were able to connect to our hotspot. Spaces were clean, level and well spaced out.
