Glen Isle Resort

20 sites ¡ RVs, Tents101 acres ¡ Bailey, CO
(If you book with us, please don’t follow your GPS if it tries to make you turn at the Coney Island hot dog stand. Glen Isle is .5 miles past the hot dog stand.) Due to the ongoing issues with forest fires in our area and insurance issues at this time, we will no longer have open wood-burning fires. Propane fires are permitted if you have a portable campfire ring, please feel free to bring your own. We do have a couple available for rent onsite. For your safety and ours: absolutely no check in/arrival after dark sets in; Around 5:15pm during winter months. 7:30pm summer There are many reasons why you would want to camp at Glen Isle Resort! Glen Isle is located in Bailey, Colorado which is the perfect vacation spot for friends, family, reunions, or a private get away. Glen Isle was originally built for an escape from hectic Denver. Once you cross the bridge into the resort, you’ll understand why it has served as a peaceful getaway for over a century. The Platte River welcomes you and divides the property from Highway 285. If you love to fish, you have a mile of the river to use at your disposal. If hiking is your forte and you desire to explore nature, Glen Isle is surrounded by the National Forest, Lost Creek Wilderness, Payne Gulch Trailhead, the Colorado Trail and many private acres for you to explore. You will find history narrates the Native American’s story where Glen Isle was once used as an Indian encampment, and numerous trees still stand today that were culturally modified to mark sacred treasures. If you seek tranquility, you will find hummingbirds and chipmunks always seeking an audience to entertain. Starting June 1st, we will offer evening activities, and campers are welcome to come to the lodge, shop in our gift shop. We also have snacks for purchase, and popcorn for our guests to enjoy. (Glorious Glen Isle was unoccupied for six years. We are in the process of renovating hundred year old cabins, and the 8,000 square foot lodge. Our camping areas have a river setting, glorious valley views, and a private setting surrounded by the National Forest. However, there is renovation and construction going on around some areas of the property. Additionally, as you can see from the map and read in a few reviews, we are just on the other side of the beautiful Platte River from Highway 285. About 75% of our guests are not bothered by the busyness of the this highway but others can be more sensitive to the noise. We want Glen-Isle campers to enjoy their experience as much as possible, so if you would like more information, please do not hesitate to ask. Our goal is to share the property with others, and to have the "happiest" campers in Colorado!) Glen Isle Resort was opened in 1901, by five original investors. In 1923, the property was bought by the Baldwin's and in the 1940's it was given to the Baldwin's granddaughter, Barbara and her husband Gordon Tripp. The Tripp family owned and operated the resort until Barbara's death in November 2012. Mary Ruth grew up coming to Glen Isle Resort as a child in the 1970's. Her favorite memories are the chuckwagon dinners, horseback riding, evening dances, movie nights, and the endless activities that never grew old. Mary Ruth grew up, married Greg, and they started bringing their five boys to Glen Isle Resort. Mary Ruth and Greg were both professionals in education, and visited Glen Isle in the summer of 2016 after an Adele concert. They found their beloved Glen Isle was being sold. After much consideration, they found the idea of not pursuing a dream to be more terrifying than looking back and wondering "why" they didn't...so they began the magical journey to purchase, restore, and bring historical Glen Isle back to life.

105 West Ranch

4 sites ¡ Lodging101 acres ¡ Goldfield, CO
A mountaintop ranch in Colorado that sits below the famous Colorado “14er”, Pikes Peak. This property sits on top of a mountain at an elevation of nearly 10,000ft and features 3 unique Glamping sites! The ranch features a tiny cabin, geodesic dome tent and platform canvas tent. The sites sit on 100 acres of private, pristine Colorado mountain land that offers over 3 miles of private hiking trails and unrivaled views in all directions. A large, mature aspen grove covers most of the property and views to the south stretch over 100 miles! Despite being on a mountain, over 70% of the property sits on level or gently sloping ground making it perfect for camping spots and events. The Eastern edge borders public land, infinitely expanding access and hiking opportunities. It’s only 1,500 feet from a large reservoir and river- both are accessible by hiking or an easy 5 minute drive. 105 West Ranch also has some deep and unique history. Our area was originally surveyed in 1881. After that, miners came through in the late 1800s and dug prospector pits looking for gold. Many of these pits and even some old tin cans from miner's camps are still visible on the property today. In 1931, the area was re-surveyed with more accuracy. In 1936, the President of the United States, FDR, granted a land patent (homestead) of 632 acres to homesteader. Part of this 632 acre homestead granted by the President was what is now 105 West Ranch. Fast forward nearly 100 years. My wife, Rachel, and I bought this property in 2019, fulfilling a life-long dream of owning our own land. Rachel and I live for the outdoors, we work in the outdoor industry and spend every chance we get exploring our beautiful state with our two dogs. As a 4th generation Coloradan, it's been a lifelong dream to own a (relatively) small part of the state my family has called home since the late 1800s. Now that we own our own piece of Colorado heaven we want to share the unforgettable experience, memories and beauty of our property with others looking for an escape from the city.

The best camping near Mueller State Park guide

Overview

About

Set among 5,100 acres of forest and meadows, this state park offers tons of recreation opportunities throughout the year. Activities include hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding on the 44-mile long tail system in the summer and cross-country skiing and snowshoeing in the winter. There are also a number of stocked ponds in the park as well as a visitor center offering interpretive exhibits. Camping options abound at the park, with a variety of loops offering everything from quiet walk-in sites for tent campers to RV sites with electric hook-ups. The park also has three cabins for those who would prefer a few more creature comforts.

Notable campgrounds

  • Best for hikers: the northernmost loop at the park, Grouse Mountain offers direct access to the Grouse Mountain Trailhead.
  • Best for RV camping: Revenuers Ridge offers electrical hook-up sites and easy access to the seasonal comfort station.
  • Best for quiet time: Turkey Meadows offers quiet walk-in sites among the trees

Tips for snagging a campsite

  1. You can reserve cabins and campsites through the Colorado Parks and Wildlife online reservation system or over the phone.
  2. Reservations can be made up to six months in advance. Same-day reservations are also available, online or over the phone.
  3. Only a handful of campsites are available during the winter season, which normally starts in October and runs through April.
  4. If you are having trouble securing a site for your preferred dates, your best bet is to look into RV parks, Hipcamps, and private campgrounds.

When to go

Camping season at Mueller State Park is between May and September, although there are generally a few sites available for winter camping during the off season. The park is at its most busy during July and August (though these months also get the most rainfall). Special educational programs also take place in the summer months at the park’s amphitheater. Temperatures start to dip in late September and sub-freezing temperatures are the norm from December through February.

Know before you go

  • The nearest town to pick up supplies is Midland, about a 10-minute drive south of the park.
  • Campsites 12 and 22 are ADA accessible, as is the Ponderosa Cabin.
  • There are a lot of opportunistic black bears in the park, and it's not unusual to spot the creatures in spring through fall. Food must be secured in hard-sided vehicles and campers are advised not to sleep in the same clothes that they cook in.
  • Camper service buildings are closed during the winter season, which usually starts in early October and runs through April.
