Things to do at Cherry Creek State Park
- Cherry Creek Reservoir Boating and Paddling EasyRV parking available
The 880-acre Cherry Creek Reservoir is the centerpiece of the park and supports motorboating, sailing, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding. Two boat ramps serve trailered craft, and a marina offers rentals and fuel. All motorized boats must pass an aquatic nuisance species inspection before launch.
- Swim Beach EasyRV parking available
The designated swim beach on the reservoir's northwest shore is a popular summer destination with sand, shade shelters, and a separate parking area. Lifeguards are not on duty, so swimming is at your own risk. RV-friendly paved parking is available near the entrance.
- Cherry Creek Regional Trail EasyRV parking available
A paved multi-use trail runs along Cherry Creek and connects the park to downtown Denver roughly 15 miles to the northwest. The route is flat to gently rolling and popular with cyclists, runners, and inline skaters. Cyclists can start directly from the campground loop.
- Fishing on Cherry Creek Reservoir EasyRV parking available
The reservoir is stocked and managed by Colorado Parks and Wildlife for walleye, rainbow trout, wiper, largemouth bass, and panfish. Shore fishing is accessible from multiple points, and a fishing pier is located near the marina. A valid Colorado fishing license is required.
- Twelve Mile Stables Horseback Riding EasyRV parking available
A concessionaire-run stable inside the park offers guided trail rides across the prairie and along shared-use trails. Rides range from one hour to half-day options and are suitable for beginners. Trailer parking is available at the stable area.
- Off-Leash Dog Park EasyRV parking available
The park's 107-acre off-leash area is one of the largest in the Denver region and includes mown paths, shaded cottonwood groves, and water access on Cherry Creek. It is a favorite stop for RV travelers with dogs. A dedicated parking lot accommodates trucks with trailers.
- Wildlife Viewing and Wetlands Loop EasyRV parking available
The park protects extensive wetlands, prairie, and riparian habitat along Cherry Creek that support deer, coyotes, foxes, and over 300 bird species. Boardwalks and short interpretive loops make it easy to spot waterfowl and raptors. The nature center near the campground offers seasonal programs.
- Mountain Biking and Multi-Use Trails ModerateRV parking available
Dirt and crushed-gravel trails loop through the park's prairie and along the reservoir, with mild grades suitable for beginner to intermediate riders. Trails are shared with hikers and equestrians, so yield rules apply. Trailhead parking near the campground fits most RVs.

We had a wonderful time. Elissa was very informative, responsive to any questions and very helpful with suggestions. We were first time van renters and we now have a desire to continue.

Just book it already! It’s the van you want! The van itself has everything you need! Spacious! Easy to drive and an amazing turning radius! And not bad in gas. The Host is even better! Super sweet, helpful and knowledgeable about Colorado! I had the most random questions and she’d answer them and get back to me promptly. I can’t wait to go back and explore more with EJ’s vans!
