Seeking recommendations - site at Moraine - Rocky Mtn NP

[linnemj]

I will be making reservations for August at Moraine Campground in Rocky Mountain National Park.

We have a 32' toy hauler travel trailer and prefer a back in site.

Anyone have any site recommendations?

Thanks!

Yes very true, reservations open at 10 am. Just made ours for july at Moraine. We got site 232. All sites that we felt we could fit in was gone by 10:10am! Be on there at 10am to get a site. Good Luck! Tara

Just the information I was looking for! Thanks so much!

I think the reservation window doesn't open until 10 AM, 6 months in advance. I will be at a hunting camp so I am relying on DW to remember to get on line.

Up there frequently. Will be heading up in April. In August, try for "B" loop, outside sites. Specifically 211/212/214/215 - all have a pretty good view of the meadow in Moraine Park. 190-204 outside in "B" loop, most of them should work. My trailer is 25 feet w/5 foot slider in the rear and I've been in more than a few of those sites without any problems, specifically 191/195/196/198.

In "C" loop outside sites, look at the sites by the amphitheatre - 227/230/232/234/236 are all very popular. 241/243/244/246 should also work for you. C and B loops are the ones I recommend, as they are the ones that more easily accommodate larger rigs. D loop is tents and A loop is a mixture of types. Some of the inside sites are mostly tents or smaller rigs in B and C loops. An exception is 182 and 184 inside B loop.

Moraine Park is a great place to stay. Make sure you are like really really early on the day the window opens for reservations on the dates you want. Sites go really fast. If you're up at midnight, make your reservation at one minute past! Seriously.

Only possible drawback is if you need to access the toy hauler part of your trailer from the rear. Some of the sites have a wall at the end of the parking site, which could inhibit your access. 211/212/214/215 should not be a problem, as they don't have the wall and are open ended.

ETA: All of these sites at Moraine Park are back in sites; can't recall seeing pull thru sites there. If you're unable to get a site that might suit you in Moraine Park, consider Glacier Basin, particularly D loop. while most of the sites are in fact pull thru here, they are nice sites and are good for larger rigs. There's also some sites in C loop in Glacier Basin that would work as well.
