We stayed at the Estes Park KOA, Estes Park, CO this weekend for 2 nights:

1) The campground has good proximity to Estes Park and has little to no traffic noise.
2) It is very cramped for maneuvering and the sites are very small.
3) There was only about 4 feet between us and the camper beside us. Not enough room to put out our canopy or enjoy the space outside our door. There wasn't really enough room to enjoy the rear area either, where the picnic table is, because the KOA person that helped us park had us back all the way up. He did this because there is so little room for rigs to drive through. Some of the spots had the RV door right on the paved road.
4) The bathrooms are very good.
5) None of the RV sites have fire pits. I called and was told that we could bring our own if it was manufactured and "off the ground". We did and it worked out well.
6) There's a cool mini-golf place within a mile and some great hiking as well.
7) It had some nice shade trees but it was all gravel otherwise. Very, very dusty.

Will we go back? Not sure. It was expensive ($60ish per night) and we were packed in like sardines.
