RV Life: The ONE campground in Estes Park we happened to stay in!

[@brogan56]

We've stayed at Elk Park and completely agree with your review. It's simply the best part in the area.

[@LizAmazing]

It sure is! Glad you know it. I can't wait to be back. And thanks for watching!

[@mcotton71]

We stayed in Grand Lake for week across New Years. It’s packed snow everywhere with snowmobiles allowed on the streets. There is over 300 miles of groomed snowmobile trails. We toured RMNP on motorcycles several years later.

[@LizAmazing]

Wow, lucky you. I would love to see that area in the snow. Glad you know RMNP! Thanks for watching.

[@jr.6199]

Once again, just the right info and details thar RVers need on cmpground research. The extra care & time you take to adding video of detailed footage that relates to your wording or descriptions in each sentence of your content...top tier YT producers. I hope others watching realize how valuable that is when researching the topics that you cover. You are wonderful professionals and we are lucky to have you here. 🙂

[@LizAmazing]

Wow, thanks so much for you kind words. See you in the next video.

[@ROHDESONTHEROAD]

Love that area. Youngest graduated from Fort Collins. Colorado has a lot of connection for me and my family. Stationed in Fort Carson, youngest is still there.

[@LizAmazing]

Glad you know the area, S & C! Thanks for watching!

[@jeanettesjourney9147]

It's a beautiful place for sure. I lived in Loveland for 20 years so I know it well. Just a few weeks ago we traveled 8 states and stopped at the end of August to spend a week at the Riverview Campground on the 34. Our site backed to the Big Thompson and my granddaughter had a blast there. We have stayed there twice and really love the park and the staff. Of course my husband had not seen Estes so we drove up there one day and he was amazed. We weren't there at the right time to hear the elk bugling but we did have a lot of deer visit just across form our campsite across the river. Have fun and be safe.

[@LizAmazing]

Oh, so many wonderful memories. So glad you know the area! Thanks for watching and see you in the next video.

[@datasmybag6050]

Elk Meadow is wonderful. I have stayed there twice and the key pluses are being so close to both RMNP and Estes Park. They are also very pet friendly. If you are tired and just want to sit at the campsite and chill, your views will be amazing - mountains in the daylight and stars at night.

[@LizAmazing]

Thanks for backing me up on this. I absolutely love this campground and I hope that I am going to find my way back there someday. And thanks for watching.

[@sheldonduffy9442]

We got to stay there several times times when we lived in Colorado and we had our Class C. During the summer we used to love taking the shuttle into town because we did not have a tow. We also enjoyed taking tours of the Stanley and taking the shuttles into the park itself. My wife and youngest son did the Tram, I couldn’t because my autistic son was NOT going to get in the thing. They also told you to lock your car because there was a bear that would open your car door!!! I also got to see a paw print where the bear had tried to open their truck!!!

[@halhearon7422]

We stayed at Elk Meadow in late August and agree with your assessment. We did not explore all of the private campgrounds but, from what we saw, it was as good as any and better than most. We also agreed the scenery from town was as pretty as we've seen and we've vacationed in CO a lot.

[@LizAmazing]

Yay, so glad you know Elk Meadow. I plan to go back! Thanks for watching.

[@RamblingRodeo]

What great views in this video, i love it.... the little town feel is truly amazing what little you showed us all and the camp ground looks really nice and rather spacious. Enjoy yourselves!

[@LizAmazing]

Aww, thanks so much for your kind words! See you in the next video.

[@davechristinemccullough7230]

Love Estes Park!!! Was there 40 years ago when it was a small quaint little town. Still beautiful today even with its developing town.

Yes! so glad you know it. I hope you two are doing well and enjoying your Class A. Hope to see you out here!

That is a pretty campground. We love to hear about campgrounds outside of the National Parks and the things to do around the area. We will have to put this on our list. You got some great pictures of the Elk. Thank you for sharing. Mary💕Fred

Hi Mary and Fred, thanks so much for watching. Elk Meadows truly is a sweet place, hope you get to visit sometime. And thanks for watching.

[@anon-w9l]

The elk makes this a place I'd love to visit. (As well as the other critters.) So many amazing videos.

[@lynbenoist3682]

Awesome review of the campground. Can't wait to go there. Love your videos! You are really good people. So glad you stuck it out. Relationships are difficult. I've found after 37 years to always have open communication (we write things down to look back on progress), what I like and appreciate and am thankful for and in a loving way what improvements can be made on my side and his. Never take constructive criticism negatively. I love that Paul admits when he made a mistake and learned from it. That is a real man. Hard to find men without those big egos. We have a monthly meeting to discuss our progress and our failures. It helps!

[@LizAmazing]

Yes, relationships are super hard. Glad you two are making it work. Congrats on 37 years!!! Thanks for watching Lyn and for your kind words.

[@MarkSDCA]

Hola. Thanks for the review of the campground. I was at the hotel in 2019 with a friend on a 6 week CO trip. Great place. Take care.

[@LizAmazing]

That's awesome! Glad you know this great area! Thanks for watching.

[@edensfamilyadventures2714]

Our son worked at the YMCA of the Rockies there in Estes Park one summer in college and we went for a visit and loved it! Went on a horseback trail ride there that was phenomenal ! The horses were literally steping up 18" high bolders and we galloped across meadows, ect! Very quaint and beautiful little town. Go over to the Grand Lake side of the mountain to see the Moose as well as the elk you see there in Estes Park. I did see an elk go through the McDonalds drive through also! 🤣🤣

[@LizAmazing]

Yes! So glad you know this magical area! It sure is a wonderful place to be. Thanks for watching and see you in the latest video right here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHTNYqaDhbFniMU

[@stygertravel]

We were just in the same rv park in Estes as well. I wonder if we were there the same days. The Elk rut is in full swing up there and they are fun to watch. Keep an eye out for the wolves up there!

[@LizAmazing]

Hi, we did not get to see any wolves but plenty of Elk. We were there the last two weeks of September. Glad you know the area, it truly is wonderful!

[@kradwonders]

We were in Este Park several years ago on Tuesday after Labor Day and had bright sunny weather about 65 degrees did a little fishing and woke up on Wednesday with snow up to the door handles on our car. We had to be pulled out. We finally drove out of the snow in Nebraska. The snow was wet and heavy not a light fluffy dry mountain snow.

[@LizAmazing]

Oh my goodness, that sounds like quite the adventure, Iggy! But what a great story to tell around the campfire!

[@rollingeezer]

Stayed there mid-Sept 2019. Rocky Mountain National Park is gorgeous. We liked the Elk Meadow RV park but the only dislike was all the dust because none of the roads in the RV park are paved or have gravel. We had the same weather conditions and really enjoyed all the area had to offer.

[@LizAmazing]

Yay! So glad you know Elk Meadow, John, I bet you have loads of happy memories from RMNP! Thanks for watching.

[@darrellwilson9184]

Great information, thanks for sharing.

[@SarahVanRiper]

We booked Elk Meadow RV Resort in June 2022 and absolutely loved the place. I felt like a winner watching your show today.

[@LizAmazing]

Yes! So glad to hear this Sarah! Thanks for backing up what we said about the place. We dearly loved our time there. So happy that you know it as well.

[@amyjones5584]

We are going to put this one on our list . Right now we are at Mammoth Cave NP , it is so beautiful here and the leaves are starting to change . Stay well and travel safe .

[@LizAmazing]

Yes! I did hear that KY got some cold temps recently so maybe it's crisping things up and helping the leaves turn. You can probably ride your bike to the park if you are in Diamond Caverns. So much to see and do in the area. Have fun-- and keep warm!

[@AStentintheWoods]

Estes Park is one of my favorite places in America.

[@LizAmazing]

It's certainly very special. So glad you know it. Thanks for watching.

[@scottsalisbury3267]

Spruce Lake Campground is owned by the same company. It is a half mile closer to Estes and IMO a nicer park. Also big rig friendly.

[@LizAmazing]

I will have to check it out, thank you.

[@lisamcgrath3132]

Hi Liz & Paul! Looks like a beautiful campground!! The weather has been amazing here in Ky, fall is here🤗

Recently stayed there staff was friendly and accommodating. Bathroom and a hot shower are a bonus. Would recommend to someone traveling in a teardrop like myself.

[@LizAmazing]

Yes! So glad to hear this. It really is a lovely place, glad you know it. Thanks for commenting.

[@daveharter6469]

This maybe cleared up by now. we were in Estes Park end of July. had checked out Timed Entry Permits for THE PARK. on the Goverment web site, It stated If you are staying in the park, you do not need a Timed Entry Permit. According to the information Center . 10,000 people including us, interpreted that Estes Park is in Rocky National Park. NOT. they were having a tough time with people. Great video.

[@LizAmazing]

Whew, I had not heard that but I can understand the confusion. Many people aren't even aware that you can't just drive into RMNP anytime either. BUT the main park is open before 9am and after 3pm to all, so that's very doable. Glad you know the area, it really is special.

[@kathyjoslin1361]

We stayed at the Jellystone park in Estes Park. No Wi-Fi and no cell service. Nice park but wouldn’t do it again. We loved our stay on both sides of the Rocky Mountain National Park. We stayed in Granby also at Resort vet Run and it was awesome!

[@LizAmazing]

Thanks for the tip about Granby, Kathy! Happy travels!

[@markpillori]

Yes, I drive down into Riverside in my Navion diesel and almost needed to be towed out. We were ready to get out and push. Then we went to Elk and loved it! A lot of ground hogs though and we were worried we would get a stowaway!

[@LizAmazing]

Oh my gosh, Mark! I feel so bad for you to have had that experience at that campground, Paradise by the River. While visiting folks there, someone made that hairpin turn in their travel trailer and ripped some security lights off a post. It's unbelievably tight- as you well know! So glad you stayed at Elk Meadow. Yes, lots of those little critters around. Happy travels and thanks for your comment.

[@prayandgo]

Go into RMNP around 4pm and drive to Moraine park, is amazing…we pulled off to the side, put lawn chairs in the back of our pickup and watched the show. The elk are most active rutting at sun up and sun down. I just love listening to the elk bugle. You also didn’t mention the bear. It’s common to see bear in or around Estes. We camp at Mary’s Lake and have always enjoyed our stay.

[@LizAmazing]

Yes! That's the way to do it, the perfect time to elk watch, thanks for this! We did not see any bear but I bet they are around. Glad you know the area!

[@debyarger3084]

We haven't found our way out west,some day I hope to. But here in the state that's known as the mitten state there a small town called Manistee, just outside of town there's a state park called Orchard Beach. There's no beach there now due to erosion. The campground is small but filled with mature trees and sits on a bluff. The view of Lake Michigan is priceless. The sunsets are amazing. The town welcomes a slow stroll as you peek through the shop windows. Mom & pop restaurants and bars to fill your belly at. If need be you can take a very short drive to two area Beaches to soak up the sun and to cool off with a dip in the lake. That was our gem find this season. What was a two night stay became six nights. I'll be returning for sure!

[@LizAmazing]

Hi Deb, well this sounds like quite the gem! We LOVED Michigan, wow, talk about an often overlooked state. There is SO much to see and do. We loved staying in the UP as well. Thanks for your comment, sounds like another place to add to our list!

[@nancyfuller4901]

I stayed at Estes Park Campground at East Portal last year. Very nice, quiet, etc. but I’d say not for large rigs like you have. I personally hate the parking lot type of campgrounds like where you stayed so I would have definitely passed on that one although it looks great for large rigs. My trailer is 17’ so I’m happy with the smaller, quieter campgrounds. Sometimes there are benefits for being small!

Yes, indeed Nancy! I started out in a camper van so I know what you mean. And SO glad you've been to Estes Park, it truly is a wonderful place.

Fun fact, Stephen Kings, The Shining, was actually filmed at the Stanly Hotel. Estes Park is great and my husband proposed on one of our trips through the Rocky Mount National Park! We live in CO.

So cool, glad you know it. And lucky you to live in Co!

YEs. Thank you so much for watching.

I hope you were using a zoom lens when you took your pics of the bull elks! Best to stay very far from wild animals and especially animals with a huge rack of antlers during the rut!

[@LizAmazing]

Good point, Judy, and absolutely! Gotta stay far from them. Thanks for this!

"...and these are exciting times to push back fear, build confidence, and live amazing!"

[@LizAmazing]

Exactly this! I miss saying that. I learned that if people will watch for at least 30 seconds, they will likely continue watching for the rest of the video. KZbin analytics showed our regular viewers stick around, but new viewers clicked off in the beginning. Since we stopped saying that our retention is much better. But maybe I will start saying it at the end of the video. Stay tuned...and thanks for watching!

I think that the hotel used for The Shining.

[@LizAmazing]

I think you're right. Thanks for watching, Edna!

Hey, you’re north of my neck of he woods, I’m down in Colorado Springs. I looked up that campground on google earth, there are NO trees. Well, a few. Is that dog park fenced? My female Dane will not go potty on the leash. The struggle is real. Have fun.

[@LizAmazing]

Yes, the dog park is fenced. And there are not that many trees. Great place, though. Lucky you to be in Colorado Springs. Thanks for watching.
