Just back from a wonderful weekend at Spot 70! Great park, dog friendly, trails are amazing, and so many different birds; no issues with staff or neighbors - 100% recommend.

This is a great park for viewing fowl with its expansive ponds. We chose a site away from the traffic and I-25. Lovely, level , paved sites and views to long for. Nice walking paths and covered picnic tables. Conveniently located to everything in nearby Firestone, Colorado. Our site had electric only. They do have some full hookups, but they are located on dirt roads. We hope to return and would recommend..

I have been to State parks all over the country in the last 17 years as camping is one of my favorite things to do. I have to say, this is by far the worst park experience I’ve ever had. The female park ranger was incredibly rude. She made it her mission to make the experience memorable and NOT in a good way. All I was doing was picking up my daughter from friends of ours that were camping and she pulled in directly behind me, right away, to tell me I couldn’t park by their site. When I mentioned I was just picking up my daughter, she said okay. Then she made my friend’s daughter move her car back 2 inches from the road again, I’m told. When I was there (apparently) longer than 5 minutes she came back and told me she was going to site me for not just picking up my daughter and leaving because I was talking too long. She was walking fast, had very confrontational body language and her tone was indicating she wanted the situation to escalate. Surprised by the whole thing I told her, “wow, okay, I didn’t know it would be such a big deal to have a conversation with the people that have had my daughter all day. We’ll leave.” I waived bye and as I walked back to my car she proceeded to follow me and continue to antagonize me about taking too long talking and being in violation. Mind you I couldn’t have been there longer than 10-12 minutes. I said, “sorry I didn’t realize the rules of the park were like this, I’ve never been here before. We were just having a conversation. We’re leaving.” She got more agitated as she followed behind me to my car and said in a smart tone, “you’ve never been to a state park before?” I turned back around and faced her and said in a calm tone, “no, I’ve never been to THIS park before.” My daughter stepped in and told her we were leaving once again, but she didn’t even look or respond to her. I told the Ranger to calm down and put my palm up. We got in the car and left. The interaction was completely uncalled for and out of line. I will NEVER come back to this park ever again. Park Rangers are usually helpful and courteous. This park has clearly lost the mark and just wants to harass people. She had many other encounters with my friends on there trip to make their stay memorable as well, but that is not my place to speak to. As someone that lives close to this park it is now my mission to tell everyone to stay away, unless they want to be confronted with Park Rangers that have a chip on their shoulder and are in no way there to serve and keep the peace.

Our most recent stay was just as great. as previous stays. This is one of my very favorite parks. It's got everything you could want at a park, except water (full hookups available in their unpaved dust bowl), which you get from a hydrant. Beautiful!

This is a state park with full hook ups unless you want an electric only site. The park is quiet at night-some amount of highway noise. There is a bike path that runs through the park-while a nice In-and Out ride it really doesn't tie in to the Green Belt bike path which is a great ride. There are fishing lakes/ponds. Walmart and Costco are close by.No T.V. reception with your roof mounted antenna, but cellphone reception (with T-Mobile-at least)is great.
