Walk-in sites are just a short hike, about 100 feet, on an unmanicured trail to our platforms. We provide the platform for your tent as well as access to all of our lodge's amenities; front desk, lobby, bar & beer garden, fire pits, grills, bathrooms, shower, outdoor common areas, free wifi, etc. A-Lodge has a 7-day non-refundable cancellation policy.

Check out what a fellow camper had to say: "First time Hipcamper and A-Lodge visitor here, I’d definitely recommend checking this place out if you’re traveling to the Boulder area. The tent platforms were easy to get to and spaced far enough apart for privacy and generally a nice break from setting up a tent on a gravel pad. WiFi was stable throughout my visit and I was able to get some work done before heading home."

The best luxury RV camping near Boulder guide

Where to go

Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park

Leave the foothills and head into the peaks with a visit to Estes Park, one of the eastern gateways to Rocky Mountain National Park. Inside the park, camping spots are available for tents and RVs. While hookups are not available, many sites have access to fire pits, picnic tables, and vault toilets or full-service comfort stations. The landscape provides a dramatic backdrop for rock climbing, horseback riding, and mountain biking—or whatever menu of outdoor activities you enjoy.

Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests

From Boulder, you have easy access to 1.5 million acres of national forests, thanks to the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests, which offers all of the beauty of the national and state parks with fewer crowds. In addition to dispersed camping areas, the national forests have over 50 public campgrounds, with various offerings and amenities. Some allow RVs, while others are limited to tent camping. Camp Dick, Pawnee Campground, Olive Ridge Campground, and Rainbow Lakes Campground are four popular options in

Denver

If you’ve had your fill of Mother Nature’s playground, urban delights await in Denver. Camping options include both private and public RV parks and campgrounds. Chatfield State Park’s focal point is a 1400-acre lake, with views of the surrounding mountain ridges. Tent and RV camping are available, and onsite activities include fishing, boating, and paddling. Cherry Creek State Park is another option nearby. 

When to go

While the Rocky Mountains offer four seasons of delights, winter camping is not for the faint of heart, as campers must prepare for freezing temperatures and deep snows, especially at higher elevations. As the snow melts at lower elevations, spring is a generally pleasant time to camp, though overnight temperatures and mountain passes are still daunting. Summer brings the warmest temperatures. A highlight of fall is the turning of the aspen leaves, which fills the forests with a golden hue.
