Idaho Springs RV Campground in Idaho Springs, CO, offers 39 full-hookup RV sites and 3 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 55 feet. Sites come in three categories — short back-in, long back-in, and pull-through — all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table, and ADA-accessible sites are available. Choosing between the short and long back-ins at booking takes the guesswork out of fitting your rig. Coin-operated laundry is on site. Pets are welcome, and the campground asks that they stay leashed and cleaned up after. There's no recreation program on the grounds, which suits the setting — this is a basecamp, and guests spend their days in the canyon and the mountains above it. Idaho Springs sits in the Clear Creek Canyon corridor 40 minutes west of Denver on Interstate 70 — a historic mining town that's the closest RV camping to both the town itself and the ski resort corridor beyond. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Summer and ski season both run busy on this stretch of I-70, so reserve ahead.
