Rocky Mountain National Park Moraine Park Campground

No Electricity and a Short Hike: Know that this site, like many others in Moraine, requires a hike up a hill from your parking spot, for this site, C 202, I'd estimate about 30 yards (maybe? could be more) which was fine for us bc then you're on top of the hill away from the road. The C loop is also the only electric loop so you're with the campers, so being on the hill helps with the noise. AND the pictures show an electrical outlet - that is NOT the case at this particular site, so be warned. All the other surrounding sites have boxes but not this one, which was fine for us, my kids charged their phones at area unoccupied sites. The views are gorgeous. You're a short walk (5 minutes) from the Moraine campground ampitheater, which was handy for attending a program. The site was clean, the tent pad was nice and even. Bear box clean. No showers. They are still working on the campground but for the location and views, honestly, can you camp somewhere more incredible?
Just know about the hike up the hill and that there is NO ELECTRICITY, as shown in the picture. Enjoy the beauty!

Moraine Park camping was delightful this year. Had a view across the valley and a couple of deer visited each morning. There was an undisturbed bird's nest on a stump in our campsite. We live about an hour away from RMNP, so we visit often, but from the campground in one day we walked around Sprague Lake, then walked around Bear Lake, and then drove up the Fall River Road. A glorious two day respite from the madding crowd.
The map on Reservation.gov was not updated for the test opening, so our spot was awkward for our pop-up camper. We didn't see any Hosts, but friendly uniformed Park Service people came through pretty often. A lovely return visit. Thanks!

It was such a great surprise to learn that Moraine was open! We have missed that. When we made our reservation, we were using an old campground site map. When we arrived, the site we reserved was not the one on the map. During the renovation they had eliminated some of the sites (and some were ones we loved), but because of that, others were renumbered. We understand that it needed to be done for various reasons. Instead of the level site with beautiful views, we had a much less level site than we expected and no views. We now have a new map with favorite sites marked with the new system, so the next visit will be better! We are truly thankful and grateful for all of the work that has been done to make Moraine better and for people to enjoy their time in the campground. New bathrooms, fire grates, are so helpful. The work was long, but the improvements were wonderful. Thank you for all you and the whole park system do to keep this available.

Exceptional campsite. Although the closest bathroom was closed, the next closest was still very close and exceptionally clean. Having potable water, an area to wash dishes, and a designated area for the tent was all excellent. The site was also a slight walk up from the road which meant we were never disturbed by noise or headlights of cars driving by, and we were able to see a beautiful starry sky.

Beautiful campground with outstanding views. Hiked the Cub Lake loop directly from our campsite. Only issue is that you have to go through the Bear slake permit stop if you go into town and want to get back to the campground. The line can be slow since some people clearly don’t have a permit and have to turn around

The map in recreation. gov does not match with the actual sites, or at least not when I made the reservation. The printed map I got at the entrance is correct, so hope it gets updated online. For the campsite, we loved it. Beautiful views and not too crowded. Just wish they would trim around and under the table.

Early morning and afternoon sun can be intense at space B249. Recommend an easy up for the picnic table area.
