Aurora holds Cherry Creek State Park inside its own limits, so a reservoir campsite sits twenty minutes from downtown Denver.


Cherry Creek State Park: Inside Aurora on South Parker Road, about 20 minutes from Denver. Full hookup and tent sites, 135 in all, open year round, though winter camping from November to March is restricted to the Abilene Loop.
Denver Meadows RV Park: About 15 minutes from Denver on Potomac Street in Aurora, with full hookups on 30 and 50 amp and pull-through sites.
Chatfield State Park: About 35 minutes southwest at Littleton, where 146 full hookup sites run mid-April to mid-October and the Deer Creek entrance carries a 13 foot height limit.
Denver East / Strasburg KOA Holiday: About 35 miles east at Strasburg, open all year with 50 amp full-service pull-throughs taking rigs to 75 feet.
Check current fire restrictions and site availability with each park before you travel.

Aurora spreads east from Denver onto open prairie, and the visiting reflects that: a large reservoir with a loop trail, a prairie conservation site with tipis and a homestead village, a nature centre on a former ranch, and a city history museum. A converted aircraft factory now holds a food hall and shops. Reservoir water activities are seasonal, so check before planning a day around them.


Denver Camper Rentals offers Class A, Class B and Class C motorhomes, and a Class B camper van is the easiest starting point for an Aurora trip. Cherry Creek State Park is close enough that many renters collect a rig and are set up the same afternoon, and a van fits its loops without fuss. The city street rule is what to plan around: Aurora allows a recreational vehicle on a public right-of-way for only 24 hours in any seven day period, and moving it along the same street does not reset that clock. The vehicle has to leave the right-of-way for 72 consecutive hours first. Book the campsite before the rig. Availability depends on the individual RV and your travel dates. Tell the team which loop you have booked at Cherry Creek and it will size the rig to it. View Available RVs or Contact the Denver Camper Rentals team.
