Fireside Rv Park & Cabins

First, I was quoted a price of 375/​mo plus 100/​mo fixed rate for electricity, so I made a reservation for a specific campsite on April 1, 2014. I arrived on May 1 and was charged $ 425/​mo rent and $ 50/​mo electric for the most hated site in the entire campground. I was forced to park my 32 footer in a spot made for a pop-​up trailer! And it was under 8 sap dripping/​limb dropping cottonwood trees. My roof is so filthy and messy now. When the spot I wanted was vacant, I asked for it; the manager, Barbara, lied to me and said that someone was coming in 2 days and staying long term. Campers have been in and out of that spot the last 60 days; she lied to me. She has lied to me several times about various things. I know this because I already know the facts and the answers before I asked her questions about certain things. Then my neighbor in site #1 banged on my door and screamed at me in a drunken rage at 3 in the morning one night because he felt that I was using part of HIS site that HE was paying EXTRA for to park his third vehicle in, his giant diesel Ford truck. Then one quiet afternoon, Tim, the maintenance manager came banging on my door and called me an eyesore! He didn’t like the materials I had been collecting and storing under my trailer to use to landscape my site, like my neighbors, and building a shabby-​chic but temporary and easily removable wooden skirt (basically just free standing fence pieces around my trailer). I got it on video; it’s absolutely full-​on raging at me! Then he served me with a 5 day quit or get-​out notice; so I had to immediately forfeit and give away about $ 1,000 in lumber, paint and materials!
Then came the lies about not being able to move to the spot I wanted from Barbara, the office manager. Instead, I was forced to move to another site between to grumpy old men in ancient fifth wheel units. Well, surprise, Rick in space 27 started screaming at me in a drunken, belligerent rampage yesterday because I tossed some fruit pits and spoiled nectarines into the wild, open field across the fence behind me. Deer come and eat out of the field. I was fun to watch. Birds frequent the wild field and entertain my cat. But I had to call 911! No managers and no owners would answer phones or respond to voice mail messages. And with the riff-​raff the new managers are letting camp her now, this place is becoming a dangerous mobile home park!
I could go on and on with examples that I have been documenting along with pictures and video.
I’m screwed because I don’t own a truck to tow my fifth wheel. I am disabled and live on a fixed income. I cannot afford to pack-​up and get the hell out of this dump. Now I know why this place was so cheap. NO ONE WORKS HERE!
If you stay here, you are expected to mow your grass, trim your weeds, etc. You are not allowed to have ANYTHING outside except a grill, a rug, OUTDOOR furniture and bicycles. YOU ARE NOT allowed to store anything outside in containers, etc unless you put it under your trailer with a management approved skirt.
OMG… PLEASE FOLKS… stay away… worn others… I had been parked next door to Dave, so I can tell you he is 100% spot on in his review, too! It’s horrible here. I’m miserable now. I feel trapped inside my trailer.
And on top of that, after all the gay slurs yesterday, apparently only straight, white folks are welcome here… especially if they smoke and like to get drunk.
Most of the long-​term are oil/​fracking workers and a few tenants are senior, retired people.
This place has gone directly into the toilet since the new owner took over on May 1^st. The owner bought this park with insurance settlement from Riverside RV Park down the road that was hit by the October 2013 flood. Same issues at Riverside, I’m afraid.
The laundry machines are ancient but cheap.
The cable, LOL, may or may not work, if you want to call it cable. You do get HBO and HBO2 but that’s it for entertainment.
WiFi. What a joke. Imagine using your smart devices on dial-​up from 1998 and that’s exactly how miserable and frustrating it is to use the WiFi here.
Good luck finding a manager. They are always busy doing stuff for themselves versus working for the park. The office manager spent an entire day out in the front lawn picking up dog poop with a pooper scooper. As if anyone gives 2 cents about the front lawn. Everything you can’t see from the road is over-​grown and run-​down.
Don’t ask for anything extra or any special permissions, that’ll cost you extra… unless you are one of their personal buddies, then you can do whatever you want to do from moving your living room outside to skirting your RV with duct tape and blue tarps!
I just cannot say enough horrible things about the new managers here. TEENAGERS from a fast-​food restaurant could manager this park better!

This is a small park, just outside of Loveland, but not too far. The wifi is *awesome*! The bathrooms are small, but are rarely used. they are kept very clean, as is the small laundry room.
This is a park of mostly long-​termers, but they have a few spots for people passing through as well. We found this to be the best park close to Estes, without the Estes prices… and with good WiFi.
At the back of the park is an irrigation channel with a nice walking path along it. Good for taking the dogs out. There is a large hill behind the park, so it’s pretty quiet. Just across the street, about a mile or so up the road (towards Loveland) is Devil’s Backbone. It’s has a nice parking area with a lot of great walking/​biking/​equestrian trials. Easy hiking with great scenery.
We camped here in a motorhome, and our inverter died, so we had no hot water for the week we had to wait on the arrival for a new one. Thank goodness for nice bathrooms!
