Looking for close proximity to any particular activities? Like mountain biking, 14ers, or fishing?

I like the red feather lakes area, not far from lots of lakes and good hikeing.

Yeah hiking, maybe fishing and hopefully no bears or mountain lions.

I like Estes Park campground west of Estes past the YMCA camp. Its at the East Portal to RMNP. We walk less than 50 yards into the national park and hike for hours in the backcountry. There are also trails closeby. I dont fish so I dont know about that.

The sand dunes are pretty sweet. Bit of a drive though.

Gotta love the dunes! Red feather feels like a world away and not very far.

Anywhere in the Pourde Canyon is awesome. Lots of car camping sites and if you like backpacking there are plenty of great trails in there too. My favorite is Emmaline lake and Cirque Meadows.

I like Walden colorado for riding on sand dunes. Out side of Lake George, between the town and 11 mile reservoir is one of my favorite places to go. Good stuff up Barbour forks trail in Idaho springs. Few places off fall river road outside of Idaho springs. I also don't do pre fabbed spots I go dispursed camping.

Leadville/Twin Lakes area - not too far away. Tons of hiking and fishing! A few places to bust out the ATV's, too.
