Chief Hosa Campground
Chief Hosa Campground was the first campground in Colorado specifically created to accommodate people using camping trailers, and their slogan at the time was “America’s first motor-camping area.” Chief Hosa Campground was opened in 1918. The 58-acre campground is nestled inside Genesee Mountain Park, which covers around 2,400 acres of rolling foothills. Many sites are situated under tall pine and fir trees, which brings relief on a hot Colorado summer day.The 24-site RV campground has been modernized since its founding, and two sites have full hookups, while 22 other sites have only water and electric hookups. Primitive RV camping is available, as well. The facility also has WiFi, a dump station, and coin-op showers. The foothills are a mix of lush green woods and arid, dry climate, and often are prone to wildfires. RV campers are prohibited from creating campfires. However, propane gas grills are allowed in approved containers. Well-behaved pets are permitted.The closest large town is Golden, CO, which is about 15 miles to the northeast. Golden is in particular known for its historic district, which dates back to the 1850s, and the Colorado School of Mines. Downtown Denver, which has many attractions, including Mile High Stadium, amusement park, and a variety of shopping, is about 20 miles to the east. Book an RV rental in Clear Creek County, CO, and embark on an adventure of a lifetime.
