The website of Paradise in Estes Park has this statement: "We do not allow wood burning fires in Paradise, however we do have propane fire-rings available for rent." That would work for me as I do not have an allergic reaction to burning propane as I do to burning wood.
This is also the same statement on the map/rules hand out from Elk Meadows, with the added notation of an exception for the fire pit located by the entrance for guest events. I've stayed there and never saw an event with a campfire there at the entrance. When I checked in, I was told that they were not permitted by the Town of Estes Park, to allow fire rings at the individual sites only at an organized event site. This may or may not be true, I've not looked it up in the Estes Park Municipal Code ;) but it's what I was told.
IIRC, Spruce Lake has the same information on their map/rules hand out, since they are owned by the same company. It's been a while since I've stayed there, but I don't recall seeing fire pits at the sites.
Manor RV Park states that their sites include a patio and picnic table, and that there is a fire pit at the clubhouse.
These are the ones in Estes that I've experienced first hand. Haven't stayed at Paradise on the River, but have been through the park checking it out. It's nice, though a bit tight.
Hope you find something that will fit your needs!
