Loved our time at Aspenglen. Great location, close enough to Estes Park but still felt remote enough. Bathroom facilities are well maintained. Campsites have a fire ring, tent pad, driveway for the car. Great trails close to campsite. Beautiful, breathtaking scenery. Just make sure to look if there is a burn ban in place before you go. Will absolutely be back.

Nice clean campground with bear locks. Bathrooms were very nice, being actual toilets, running water, and being inside. Camp host was very nice and accommodating with our car tag when the ranger was absent.

We spent 3 nights at site B-11, camping in a 19' van. After making the reservation months in advance and finding the information about tent-only vs. camper sites confusing, a friend living in Estes Park visited the site and measured it for us. I was a little concerned about not having enough room to park, but it worked out OK. The other sites in the B loop had slightly larger vehicle pads - I would choose one of them next time. Our experience was very positive - other guests were quiet and the bathrooms and grounds were clean and nice. We enjoyed Endovalley, and being able to access Sprague Lake and Bear Lake without a timed entry reservation!

This campsite was the best ever! Yes, you have to walk in a bit, but the view is spectacular! Well worth it!!!
The facilities are the cleanest I have ever found in any camp. A small cart was available to help haul items down to the site. The person at registration was warm and helpful.

Great campground. Good facilities and location. The reservation comes with a free all day, all regions, reservation to the park itself for the length of stay, which makes it the easiest way to get a park reservation far in advance. The campground is in active bear territory, so anything with.a scent must be handled accordingly.

The campground was nice but at around 5 pm on Wednesday a band just on the other side of the park boundary started playing very loud music. I realize Aspenglen is located right next to Estes Park but you would think the business owners in town would have more respect for the campers. The music was so loud I hiked 2 mi west into RMNP and could still hear it. I came to RMNP to hear the birds sing and elk bugle and NOT to hear a cheesy announcer and a third rate band. I could have been more understanding if it were Friday or Saturday night but this was a Wednesday so during the week it was unacceptable. There should be some noise ordinance restricting noise pollution entering the park. And while I'm ranting; what's the deal with all the jets flying over the park? Once I got into the backcountry away from the car and other noise pollution a jet would fly over every 15 minutes. It's getting harder and harder to find any real peace and quiet in Colorado. Sad.
