Best Rv Park / Resort near Denver Airport
Need to find safe, clean friendly place for DW and Pups so I can travel for a couple of days. Need to be within one hour of Denver airport. Any previous experience appreciated. TIA

We recently stayed with our local RV camping group at the Strasburg KOA. It was clean and fairly quiet (you hear I-70 and an occasional train). It is a long way from Denver and eating and activities are very limited. Another idea would be Cherry Creek State Park. Never personally stayed overnight, but the park is nice. I would avoid the RV park at Barr Lake. Good luck with your search

Check out Dakota Ridge RV Resort in Golden CO. Golden is just west of Denver and this is the best park and safest anywhere around Denver. Close to I 70 for easy drive to airport. Golden is like a suburb of Denver and a very cool old town.

We stayed at Cherry Creek State Park a couple years ago. It was very nice and very roomy, we'd stay there again.

You might wish to check out St. Vrain State Park. They have water/elec/sewer hookups. The toll road would get you to DIA pretty quick but I don't know about non-toll routing.

Cherry Creek State Park would be my 1st choice. We get there once or twice a year. Second choice would be Chatfield State Park. Weekends can be tough. Farther north in Loveland is Boyd Lake state park. Loveland is a nice little town. About an hour to DIA. I use Boyd Lake when I want to do Rocky Mountain National Park.

Just to add to the list you have;
Golden Clear Creek RV park in Golden, CO
Boulder County Fairgrounds in Longmont, Co
JeffcoFairgrounds in Jefferson County, CO
Between these and the ones suggested you should be able to find a place - My choice would be Golden Clear Creek https://rec.cityofgolden.net/wbwsc/w...ash.html?wbp=3 - it's in town - just off the creek and next to the Library - comunity center - and the Town of Golden, so you can walk to everything.
Hope this is of some help,

Cherry Creek State Park. Then go on E470 toll road to Pena Blvd to airport. Probably take you more time once you get on Pena Blvd to the airport than from Cherry Creek to Pena Blvd. Maybe try Google Earth and take a look at it. As suggested you will definitely want to get your reservations at Cherry Creek, the sooner the better. I have stayed at Cherry Creek a couple of times and really enjoy it. Going there again this Sept. for another family outing.

My wife and I stayed at Dakota Ridge this last weekend. It was very nice and clean. It is just under an hour from DIA at non-rush hour, much longer than an hour at rush hours (you just don't want to try at that time of day).

We stayed at the Strasburg KOA last year to be close enough to the Denver airport to pick up friends there. It worked out fine, took about 30 to 45 minutes to get to the airport. Getting around the airport - now that is another issue.
