    Stayed for 2 nights and although the weather sucked we enjoyed this KOA. LOTS of activities for the family! Nice pool and water park, go carts to rent for $10/hour, mini golf, large playground, sports field, fishing and paddle boats. Definitely not a boring time. There were little frogs hopping around everywhere too, made for a fun time catching them. Bathrooms were clean and well kept and they even had a food truck on site with the best pizza and wings! Only downfall was the amount of mosquitoes around the park. Absolutely horrendous! I would definitely recommend for future travelers

    Great place to get away & enjoy some nature. You can relax in your rig, walk around the lake, exercise, fish, gather with friends or whatever your preference. Friendly staff keep the grounds looking nice, answer any questions and be of service when needed. The camp offers many amenities from store stocked with groceries, keepsakes & souvenirs to DVD rentals to paddle boats & more. Family friendly, senior friendly, in-between friendly. Our stay here was most enjoyable.

    I stayed here at the KOA for five days, and I had a great relaxing time. I had no problems and the staff here were very helpful. I was able to regroup and get things set for my next adventure. I highly recommend this place.

    We stayed here three years ago and wow what a downturn. Grass is now a dead weed patch. Dirty park with uneven sites. We had to change sites and still couldn't get level. Even the concrete sites are a shitshow. Pain in the ass park to get to boot. Now charging for everything that used to be an amenity. This goes into the category of never again. By the way the cost here $119 a night.

    What a pleasant little restaurant place! It has a lot of free activities. A lot of parks will charge you for everything. But not here. They have a bounce house, bumper boats, paddle boats, shuffle board, and mini golf, all free!!!! It's mostly run by older people. Which makes the feel of the place calm. It's also well maintained. Except for the pillow jump which was pretty dirty. Everything else was great. And the staff was extremely nice. This will be our go to park when we are in Fort Collins, it surrounding areas!

    We drove here from out of state because my kids saw the bumper boats and the paddle boats in neat flamingo, swan, duck, and dragon designs. We arrived Sunday evening on September 12th and learned Monday morning when we went to the office that the bumper boats were seasonal and had been taken out. We also learned the most disappointing news: that the paddle boats that were all right there at the dock were only available on the weekends starting Friday morning at 10:00 when the rec department opens. Those were the reasons we drove here from out of state and now we have disappointed kids. There was nothing on their website that said the paddle boats were not available Monday through Thursday. What a big disappointment. Now we need to find a plan B ASAP. We were planning to use the bumper boats and paddle boat a couple times a day every day this week. I do not recommend this KOA.

    More horses.... cows were in field adjacent.

Don't worry, it's worth it. Kelly Flats Campground is located 35 miles west of Fort Collins in the Poudre Canyon. Of the 29 available sites, most are either right on the river or a mere few steps away. It's low enough to wade and tube in the late-fall, but it is COLD. Bring your fishing pole... you might just catch yourself a delicious trout! The campground host keeps the bathrooms IMMACULATE, which is a huge bonus. No spiders! Most of the bathrooms are wheelchair ready. Almost all the sites are car/RV/trailer accessible, but there are six that are walk-in tent-only. Not surprisingly, these six boast the best spots on the river. They're also a bit more secluded. Even so, the other sites are spaced well enough apart so the slightly rowdy won't step on the toes of the family campers (or vice versa!). It's a great set-up. Dogs are welcome, but need to be tied up at your campground. They're free to frolic down by the river, though! Site 10 (walk-in) has a cool little "swimming pool" of river rocks built up... and it's probably really nice during the early summer months when the river's a bit higher. All sites have picnic tables and fire grates. You can buy wood from the camp host for $7 a bundle, but I recommend getting it at the Conoco in town for half the price. There isn't much to gather at the campground. One thing to note: there are TONS of yellowjackets. I don't know if it's because we camped late in the season, but those buggers were aggressive and mean. And EVERYWHERE. You'd be smart to pack one or two of those yellow wasp traps. As camping goes, Kelly Flats is far enough out there to be really gorgeous and secluded, but developed enough to feel safe and fun for even the littlest campers. We took our one-year-old and he had a blast! We'll be back next summer for sure...!

The water had been up to the rocks near the parking area at the South Bay swim area. In the late summer, it had more of the expected high desert vibe. It's nice that they have a no-wake area for paddle boarders and swimmers. Although it is a reservoir, the ugly wall is not a prominent visual feature like ie: Cherry Creek reservoir. I enjoy how this one is situated in a valley surrounded by mountains. Next time, I am absolutely bringing a paddle board. This time however, I was amused and inspired by one man who was not immediately deterred by the fact that he fell off his again and again. When he finally gave up, he had the same problem with his inner tube. The bathrooms/showers were not disgusting but I wasn't so sure how sanitary those children's diapers were in the water. .

Trails around the reservoir were fun and varied from rocky beaches, to steep grades, to rocks you could boulder or climb. The trails were well kept and they were not crowded. I'll have to check it out on a warmer day. There were a few people doing photo shoots while we were there also.

Without all the running, screaming, trampling, and death required by those that wish to pet or touch bison in other locations. You Tube Bison Attacks Yellowstone to understand this reference. Now, Terry's allows feeding, petting and close up photography of their bison. The resort is a ranch and not the Four Seasons, so let's dial down our expectations and recognize the workings of the ranch. There will be dirt, poop, feathers, hair, urine, and unkempt struck and other things gentle folk may find unsavory. We found the ranch charming. We have experienced many close encounters with wild bison and most were less than rewarding, but exciting. Terry removes this. The train creaks, and groans into the herd. Windows open, and your bison friend pop up for food. You can touch them and enjoy close photos/videos. Kids will love this and animal lovers also. Your trip back the platform will provide some ranch insights and views of horse stables. That was our visit. You may also trail ride on horseback and even participate in dude ranching.
