Standley Lake Campground in the United States

The fact is; If you a looking for RV Parks in Denver and the surrounding metro area, offerings are scant and most of what is available, is a disappointment. Standley Lake is a great option, especially if you don't require a lot of amenities. Reservations are required. Fresh water is available, along with a single restroom facility w/ an outdoor shower and dumpster. The area is maintained and overseen by a great group of kids and rangers. They are VERY helpful and friendly. What makes this property great is, the NO ALCOHOL regulation. It deters the partiers, riff-raff and belligerents from showing up, so, no drama here. You can, however, consume alcohol discretely in your own space. Gates close at night and there is a guard on duty. They run a tight ship. Activities include Fishing, SUP'ing, kayaking etc; along with rentals for all of these. No Swimming or dogs in or near the water, as this is a watershed. If you need to dump tanks, and are staying in the area for a while, an annual access pass-card to Westminster City wastewater treatment plant is available to purchase at city hall. This dump facility is part of Big Dry Creek complex and it's modern and very well managed. It's about 20 minutes from the park and is probably the best option if you plan on being in the area for a while. Generators are allowed as long as quiet hours, and decibel restrictions are abided. This is enforced. Excellent Location Secure Open Space Quiet Potable Water Access Restrooms Close to everything

Despite limited amenities, no hookups, dump, or showers, this is a great park with spacious sites that are pretty level. There is an outdoor shower and nice clean bathrooms. The lake is beautiful and rentals are available. Shopping, banks, and groceries close by. The perfect place to catch up on errands. Be prepared to hear generators.

No hookups but a Central Park to restock on supplies and make minor repairs. Spacious sites mostly level. Beautiful lake with rental items available. King Soopers just down the street. Shade is limited and it was hot but solar worked great. Quiet and walking trails near.

We showed up hoping to camp in mid-October only to find the gates locked. Turns out they don't allow overnight camping during their winter season which is October to April.
