RE: Alpine Lakes Resort CG in Colo Spgs not opening this year

[texacokat]

 
We are making reservations for our 2 week Colorado trip and had booked 4 nights at Alpine Lakes Resort (http://www.alpinelakesresort.com/)  just outside Colorado Springs.  The owner called us last night to tell us that he is not opening this season due to water restrictions.  He said he couldn t make it this year with what water would cost him; their snowpack is not what it should be.
 
 Now, I haven t checked his story, but he said likely the larger franchises wouldn t have the same problem he is encountering (cost).  We ll be looking for other CGs in the Colo Spgs area.  We got scared away from Mueller SP (http://parks.state.co.us/mueller/) when they attached a pdf file on camping in bear country!

By all means, don t let this scare you away from a nice park! I seriously doubt you would even see a sign of a bear. All of the campgrounds in CO have a statement on the check in board about bears, and Mountains Lions. And that s all it is. Book your site at Mueller and have a good time.
