Mule Hill is a small campground with only 13 campsites, whose main entrance is on the left hand side of Glendo Park Road, ¼ mile southeast of the Main Fee Booth. All campsites in Mule Hill are developed, with gravel road access and established parking pads. Site 7 has a large, ADA compliant, cement pad. Sites 4 and 7 are pull-through sites, while the others – up to site 12 – are back-in sites. Site 13 is a groupsite, which accommodates up to 3 camping units. Sites 1 through 6, 8-10, and 12 are all located underneath or along a stand of cottonwood trees, with at least partial shade. Sites 7, 11, and 13 are more exposed with little to no shade. The toilet is located on the eastern side of the campground, closest to sites 1-6. Normally, from early May to Mid-July, campers at Mule Hill will find easy access to the water, which comes up into the trees. After July, the bay drains out, and the closest water access is through the south side of Whiskey Gulch Campground.

Red Hills is a moderately sized, unique campground situated on a series of hills which slope towards the reservoir. The area takes its name from the deep red rock which surrounds the campground, and forms the steep cliff faces which border much of it. Red Hills has 22 campsites, spread out over a large, generally wooded area. Site one is a back-in with a steep, narrow access road, and as such is ideal for smaller camping units. Sites 2 -5 are large pull through sites, and all have at least partial shade except 2, which has none. All of these sites are a fair distance from the water’s edge, and have no direct water access. Sites 6 through 9 are small sites, suitable for small camping units and/or tent camping. Site 6 has no shade, while the rest in this group have partial shade. This group of sites is on a hill which slopes towards the water, but there is a steep drop off before the shoreline, and as such, these sites don’t have direct water access. The next group of sites includes sites 10 – 15. 10 and 11 are pull-through sites, but 10 is an individual site with no shade, while 11 is a group site with partial shade, which will accommodate 3 camping units. Both 10 and 11 are land-locked, with no direct water access. Sites 12 through 15 are undeveloped sites, and are accessed through a steep, undeveloped access road; four wheel or all-wheel drive is recommended. Site 12 does not have any direct water access, while sites 13-15 are closer. However, as the water drops later in the summer, the access from these sites becomes steeper. The last group of sites includes sites 16 -22, along with the campground’s only toilet. These sites provide the campground’s closest access to the water. Sites 16 and 17 are small back-ins with partial shade and a steep overlook onto the reservoir. Sites 18 through 22 are larger, and are down much closer to the water’s edge, with partial shade. These last four sites are potentially impacted by high water.

To access Reno Cove from the I-25 exit, make your way through town to Glendo Park Road, and turn south towards the main fee booth. Just after the Main Fee Booth, turn left onto Lakeshore Drive, and follow Lakeshore Drive for about 3 miles; the campground will be on your right. Reno Cove follows a hillside which slopes towards the lake, and culminates in a long, low water boat ramp at the end. It is largely situated in a stand of small ponderosa pine trees, and is a campground with 22 campsites, spread over three separate areas, each of which has a nearby vault toilet. Sites 1 through 11 are all large sites with well-established camping pads, and electrical hookups. These sites will accommodate large rigs, and for the most part have little to no shade. Sites 9, 10, and 11 are partially shaded. All but one of the other campsites in Reno are undeveloped, with varying degrees of rougher terrain. Sites 2 and 18 have large, cement ADA compliant parking pad, although the access road to 18 is undeveloped. The other sites are better suited to smaller camping rigs and/or tent camping. Reno Cove has one water hydrant, which is located on the western side of the high water boat ramp parking lot. The campground also has two boat ramps: one for high water, and one for low water. This makes Reno one of two boat ramps which are reliably available year round.

If you're looking for something a little different from your average RV camping experience, then our yurts might just be for you! Our yurts are large, round, circular tents which surround a permanent frame and are set on a permanent base. We have three total that are all availble for reservation. Yurts 2 and 3 both have a cement sidewalk access from an ADA accessible parking pad along with a cement pad which has a picnic table and fire pit. Yurt 1 has a wooden porch, and its table and firepit are situated on the gravel behind the structure. Each yurt is equipped with a full-sized bunk bed, one twin bed, and another twin rollaway bed. The park does not provide bedding, so please bring your own to suit the season. You will also find a dining table with seating for six, a skylight with a ceiling fan, two windows which help for summer ventilation, and a combination electrical heater/AC unit. Please be advised that the heater is designed to provide 20-25 degrees of temperature difference.

Our yurts provide an excellent opportunity for you to bring your family to Glendo, at almost any time of year! Situated in the woods on the back side of Two Moon Campground, they are mere steps from the scenic Two Moon trailhead, and are nicely sheltered from wind and the elements. During the summer, a yurt will provide you with a well-venitlated and air-conditioned space to beat the summer heat. During the spring and fall, you will find an insulated shelter which will help take the bite out of chilly days and nights.
