RV Park / RV Campground – Garden of the Gods RV Resort – Colorado Springs, Colorado
Photographed and Written by Randy and Caly Behymer
Situated at the foothills of the Garden of the Gods Nature Center lies one of RVC Outdoor Destinations’ first properties. “Conveniently located” is an understatement for this park as it boasts easy access to the Garden of the Gods, the historic town of Old Colorado City, Manitou Springs, Colorado Springs, ample hiking (including the famous Manitou Incline), the Arkansas River, Royal Gorge and stunning views of Pike’s Peak. You won’t find much in the way of Garden of the Gods RV Resort hosted activities for guests at this RVC location. With its convenient location to all that the area has to offer, most guests spend their days exploring the area outside of the resort and use the park as a home base versus using the park as a vacation. That didn’t stop RVC from providing ample amenities and park features you have grown to expect.
RVC Outdoor Destinations loves to go above and beyond to ensure all types of travelers, campers and RVers have the ultimate destination experience at their parks, and Garden of the Gods RV Resort (GOGRV) is no exception. The park offers around 185 full hook-up sites, 20 tent sites, 17 bunkhouses (primitive but linens are provided), 4 tiny homes, 5 studio hotel rooms and three 1-bedroom suites, so finding accommodations that best meet your needs will be an easy process. GOGRV is big-rig friendly with 38 pull-through sites that average 70 feet long! While not all the pads in this park are concrete (most are gravel), the park does offer Executive Sites with concrete pads, and the park has plans to add concrete pads to additional sites in the near future. The list of amenities at this park is extensive, and the main building is home to a rec room with pool table, comfortable seating and massage chairs. It is also home to the main office and a very well-stocked store offering souvenirs, clothing and camping supplies. The two laundromats have machines that can be used via an app on your phone, so you can avoid the need to lug around rolls of quarters. For those wanting to ride the wave of nostalgia, a stop off at the classic-games filled arcade is a must. Try your hand at one of your favorite childhood games and see if you still have it in you to be a great gamer. Also located on site is a food truck offering up eats 5-days a week (seasonally). In true RVC Outdoor form, the list doesn’t stop there. The property has two pools, a nice sized dog run area, doggie “relief” areas throughout the park and resident bees found at all of the RVC Resorts can be found here as well. Their delicious, sweet byproducts can be purchased in the front store and make a great gift.
RVC Outdoor Destinations has once again delivered another great RV resort and destination. Though this park doesn’t offer a splash pad, ziplining and golf cart rentals like some of their other locations, this park will still check off plenty of boxes for your next destination. Surrounded by some of the most breathtaking mountain views and geological wonders, GOGRV is the ideal location to plan your next great destination get-away.
