A small, private campground. Dan, our host, was awesome! My wife and I truly enjoyed our stay, there. It was extremely peaceful and rejuvinating. several deer stopped by our rv, hoping for snacks. Yes, yes, I know.. "Don't feed the wild animals." Mrs. doe did receive a handful of grapes, whilst Mr. Buck stood there, supervising. We were also visited by a fox. A mother bear w/cubs performed a late nigh,, on-camera cameo at the back of the campground. 2 or 3 rv sites, a couple of tent areas, and 2 cabins, snuggled up, at the bottom of the mountain. Sweet.

Weekend Trip to Peaceville (Lodging & Tent/RV Site)

BEAUTIFUL property with two campsites nestled in a large aspen grove in a "dark sky" area of Colorado. Amy and John were so welcoming and kind and communication was great! The campsites feel very private and remote, while still being accessible to activities and a few businesses. The Aspen site feels more shaded and woodsy, while Boyscout is more open with nice views. It was great to have the whole camping space to ourselves along with the safe house option a short hike away for food storage, indoor plumbing, WiFi, and escape from the rain :) Wish we could have stayed longer!

He went above and beyond to ensure all his guests felt welcome and have a relaxing visit. From the fire pits at each site to the vintage RV “museum” to poolside karaoke, we lived everything about Starlite. We can’t recommend a visit enough.

We really enjoyed Starlite! The owners put a lot of care and love into their campground. The grounds were very clean, lots of activities for families (pool, yard games etc), and the fixed up old campers fascinated my kids. The pull through full hook up spots were each to get in and out of with plenty of maneuvering room. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place to anyone. The effort the owners put in makes such a huge difference in making this a great campground.

Where to go

San Isabel National Forest

West of Monument sits San Isabel National Forest. Encompassing over 1,750 square miles and containing 19 of the state’s fourteeners, it’s a dream for hikers and mountain climbers. The forest features nearly 800 miles of hiking trails through meadows, forest passes, and six designated wilderness areas. Turquoise Lake Recreation Area is the most popular developed camping area, with seven campgrounds that feature flush toilets and a centrally located dump station. Twin Lakes Recreation Area is also popular among anglers and boaters, thanks to a convenient boat ramp and campsites right along the shoreline.

Pike National Forest

Just west of Monument, Pike National Forest covers about 1,730-square-miles and contains natural gems like Pikes Peak, Kenosha Pass, and the Continental Divide. Devil’s Head Lookout is also a must-see spot that includes a 2.8-mile trail through a forest of pine and aspen trees. It culminates in 143 steps up to a U.S. Forest Service fire lookout tower for a 360-degree view. Hipcampers can choose from dozens of serviced campgrounds for tent and RV camping in the forest as well as rustic log and modern two-story cabins.

Lake Pueblo State Park

About an hour south of Monument sits Lake Pueblo State Park, which encompasses about 10,000 acres of land, including 60 miles of shoreline around Lake Pueblo. Lake Pueblo is a hot spot for fishing, bringing anglers from all over to catch bass, catfish, rainbow trout, carp, and a dozen other fish species. The lake is also perfect for swimming, kayaking, and tubing. On land, find miles of hiking trails that wind through 200-year-old juniper trees to the Arkansas River. The park also has 393 campsites with picnic tables, paved parking, and fire pits. Arkansas Point and Northern Plains Campgrounds have electricity, along with showers, flush toilets, playgrounds, and dump stations. These sites fill up on weekends between Labor Day and Memorial Day, so reserve spots early.

When to go

Monument is most popular during warmer months, particularly from Labor Day to Memorial Day. July is the warmest month with average highs around 86°F. However, anglers should head to Lake Pueblo during spawning season in March and April for prime fishing. Snowsporters should check out the area in winter, when parks open designated snowmobile routes and cross-country skiing trails along with downhill skiing and snowboarding slopes. December can get frigid, with an average high of 40°F, but cold-weather campsites are available.
