Diamond Campgrounds

There are probably better places, especially if you are looking for something «quiet,» but it isn’t bad and if you are in a big rig like I am (65 feet long) then you can find a place to park.
Campsites are really close to one another. but they do have full hookups for your RV if you need it. The sites are not very level, so make sure you bring some blocks for your jacks (I used them in front). It looks like the sites are decomposed granite and the area isn’t that well drained. I had to fill in several small «gullies» right in front of our door so it’s a good thing I had a shovel. I might also mention that each site has a fire pit and a picnic table. but since our area was sloped we cancelled our picnic with friends and family until we get to our next campground.
They have free Wi-​Fi and electric is included, but they don’t want you turning on your A/​C or streaming movies so keep that in mind. I could only pick up one local station where I was, and even that was in and out. So, bring some sat antennas along if you want some TV and not every site has a clear view of the southern sky either…
There are a lot of full time residents, and a fair amount of dogs. They were working on the Shower area and using a skill saw so it was a bit noisy at times.
If you want to be close to a lot of places to go and things to do, then this is the place if there is room.
I might also mention that you can use Passport America membership here for 5 days which will cut the rate to $ 18 so that makes it a 4 star deal in a 3 star camp.
There are a lot of places close to here like Garden of the Gods, Manitou Springs, Cave of the Winds, Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Resource Center, Shining Mountain Golf Club, Rainbow Falls, Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center, Mueller State Park, the Air Force Academy, and Pike’s Peak. And Colorado Springs is about ½ hour drive from here.
So, all in all not a bad place to stay.

Not my favorite campground in our lovely state, but my reasons for a three-​star rating are purely based on one family’s opinion (mine, duh), so check them out and form your own! Here are my unbiased notes:
It’s right on the road. Granted, it’s Hwy 67, so it’s not like it’s an interstate or anything… but, depending on where you’re situated within the quite-​large compound, you may hear cars all night.
It’s very close to Woodland park, so you don’t have that «I’m out in nature!» vibe. There’s a lube n’ tune shop right across the street, in fact. You’re not really Getting Away From It All, here. That said, if you want to be able to walk into town to restock your provisions without tearing down your whole camp, this is a plus!
It’s definitely one of those «RV Lifestyle» type places. Like, there are a LOT of people who are obviously here for weeks, if not months, on end. They’ve set up porches, landscaped their campgrounds, installed patio lights, etc. It’s way more RV-​heavy than tent-​heavy. There’s a small enclave of tents toward the back, but this is by far and away an RV place. In fact, they should probably call themselves an RV park instead of a Campground… just to make things clear for the casual campsite-​searcher.
Dog-​friendly! Definitely a plus if you own one (or several!) A minus if you dislike them (but really, who dislikes dogs?).
No hiking or biking trails leading off-​site. Also no lakes, creeks, or water features. That’s a bummer. On their map, it looks like there’s a trail that leads off site to a corral of some sort… but that’s misleading. The «corral» is just a small stage where they hold little on-​site events like jamborees and things. Once you’re in the campground, you’re in the campground to stay (unless you want to walk along the highway and into town).
Noticeably Christian. If that’s your thing, you’ll be happy to know that they offer bible study here, and have a list of nearby churches for your all your worshipping needs. If it’s not your thing, well, maybe you shouldn’t be here. The staff was friendly enough, but most of the guests were quite liberal with their judgey looks. We didn’t feel that neighborly vibe you get at a lot of campgrounds, where people come up and chat with you about your rig, your dogs, your summer plans… in fact, I got a vicious staredown from a teenager in a «Leave Room For Jesus» tee… maybe she wasn’t a fan of the Motley Crue emblem on mine.
Campsites are small and really, really, REALLY close to one another. That said, they do have full hookups for your RV, including on-​site sewage, if you need it.
Rates are reasonable ($ 34 for a full hookup, two adults).
A good «home base» location if you’re a Big Rig RV-​er and want to put down roots for several weeks while you explore this area of Colorado in the little vehicle you were towing. A short drive from Garden of the Gods, Manitou Springs, Cave of the Winds, the Air Force Academy, Pike’s Peak, and many other super-​touristy-​type spots.
So… there you go! One woman’s pass may be another woman’s preference… and if this is your type of place, enjoy! I highly recommend making reservations at their website, because this part of the state fills up fast when it comes to camping. Have fun!
