What Guests Are Saying
Aspenglen Campground is praised for its beautiful setting, great location, and well-maintained facilities, including clean restrooms and private, tree-lined sites. Many visitors appreciated the peaceful atmosphere and helpful rangers, making it a favorable spot for camping. However, some noted a lack of sufficient food storage boxes and limited access to trails and water nearby, but overall, the experience remains highly positive.

Beautiful, clean, treed campground with well maintained restrooms (with flush toilets!), lots of space between many of the sites, and easy access to both town and the rest of the Park. This was our second time here and we will return again!

Aspenglen is my favorite campground in RMNP. It is a small campground for smaller RV's and tents. It is just inside the Fall's River entrance. A nice path along the river leads to the visitor center or to Estes Park. There are no hookups for water or electricity, so you need to be self-sufficient. There are flush toilets and water hydrants are available. If you plan to hike, most trails are closer to Morraine or Glacier Basin campgrounds which are also served by the shuttle service. There is one trail that leaves from the campground, but it is heavily trafficked by the nearby stables.

It's a big spot it gets warm due to no trees for shade but over all a great spot.

Wonderful experience! We did have a SNAFU when the online reservation system allowed us to reserve a tent only campsite after indicating that we were towing a 16-ft camper, but the host made accommodations for us and it all worked out well.
