Situated adjacent to Barr Lake State Park Wildlife Refuge, guests can hike, bike, or ride horses around the lake trail. You will see many kinds of birds, including bald eagles, ducks, geese, and pelicans. You will likely see cattle, horses, foxes, snakes, deer, coyotes, and skunks. The sunrises and sunsets can be spectacular. We have one acre of fenced pasture that can be used for guests traveling with horses or other large animals. This is a rural location with close access to Barr Lake State Park, full shopping, restaurants, and interstate highway. It is within a mile of a busy railroad crossing. Pets of any kind are strictly not allowed in the Wildlife Refuge section of Barr Lake State Park; this is for the protection of both the pets and the wildlife. Water access and activities are banned on this part of the park as well. Water activities, such as fishing, paddle boards, kayaking, etc., are permitted via the main entrance to the park on Picadilly Road (the other side of the lake from this location); it requires travel of about 10 minutes to reach the main entrance of the park. A day or annual pass is required to enter the park, which can be purchased at the entrance gate.

This site is a great spot with great hosts. Perfect location, very close to freeways/stores/Denver. We would stay here again and recommend it.

This is a quiet and peaceful campsite. Kathy was a wonderful hostess; she met us when we got in, and showed us the hookups, etc. She has a great site with 50amp hookup and sewer. They are currently installing a water line at the site. But we could use the outdoor faucet on her house which is about 50’ away. The site overlooks Barr Lake State Park. We woke up and fell asleep to the sounds from migrating waterfowl. We would def stay here again, esp because we have friends in Brighton and train with the COTF.

Great near downtown spot to Denver
We wanted an RV spot that was close to downtown so that we could shop and dine. Other RV sites near downtown had sketchy reviews. At Kathy’s we were the only rv site so there was no risk. We had a nice view in the distance and the spot was clean and spacious. My dogs explored the large property. There is a huge shopping center with every commercial retail store and restaurant you could desire within 1 mile. At night you can hear the sounds off the freeway and trains. However that’s the price of being so close to downtown.

Great View with Full Hook Ups
Kathy has made a nice campsite here. Easy to find, and easy to back in to. Level and clean, with a very nice view. We had a nice weekend looking out over the lake and wildlife area. Being a little bit of an aviation buff, I also enjoyed watching the steady stream of planes landing at DIA. The landing path is about 4 miles away, so there was no noise. Having full hook ups was a big plus.
