Welcome to Clear Creek Getaway! NOTE: Absolutely no smoking in the A-frames Please note these Mountains are home to a lot of people therefore I do not allow any open burning wood burning no one want start a forest fire even though the county will say it’s OK for open burn. Please respect The neighbors they request that we do not have open flame. I’m sure you can understand. Bedding: you will need to bring your own For the glam dome: file:///var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments/cd/13/3781DC46-F036-428E-BFC5-447B16E14D54/Image-1.jpeg Roads : This is a mountain getaway so the roads are dirt. If you have Awd and keep your speed up you will make it fine. The road is a loop the backside can have rocks so please drive up in high clearance vehicles no need for crazy lifted just SUV-Trucks type We are available all year round. No power in units. All A-Frames come with a grill and propane (see photos), and there is also a solar motion light on the deck.. Located 10 minutes by car from historic gold town Idaho Springs.

The campground was great! Unit and porta potties were clean and well maintained. Directions and communication with host was great!

We had such an amazing time camping here! Rick has his property set up so well, it's fully stocked with any amenities you could think of. There's toilets, card games, a grill with propane, heaters, lights, and the a frames are so cute and cozy. This was probably the best time I've ever experienced camping, and our dog loved it too. Rick is super responsive, kind, and helpful. My only tip is to be prepared with an AWD vehicle, we have a RAV4 and we were fine, but a sedan would seriously struggle to make it up and down these roads.

Gold prospectors Camp

This was a great spot, good views and quick and accessible location from Denver. This spot would be best for campervans, built out vehicles or roof top tents. I had a tent and it was rocky and a bit unlevel.

Great solid structure to call it a night during a cross country drive. Close to interstate, but didn't hear any of the traffic overnight. Portapotty was clean. Beautiful view. Weather was nice enough I didn't need to use heater. Would Definitely stay again!

A-frame is A-must!

This little spot sure is a gem. I loved the hand painted sign leading to the a-frames. Beautiful views all around, and we had a lovely evening playing scrabble when we saw there was a little box of games inside. I’ll definitely save this listing for when I’m in the area again!
