Camping Reservation in Colorado Campground Expected to Increase
The reports are 37% of Memorial Day travelers planned to bike or hike, 29% planned to visit a national or the state park, and 14% planned to visit beaches or other water body during weekend schedule.
Visitors can chose the options or found all of those options at Chatfield State Park to spend their holiday at park instead of spending money to travel somewhere farther away.
Dave Tretteen, residing in Arvada said “We’ come here quite a bit, but this year things are a bit tighter, so I just want to stay a bit closer.”
Colorado State Parks reports that camping reservation will increase 1.9% this year but more people seem to be deciding to stay closer to home during vacations or holiday to save money.
Many campgrounds around the state are seeing an increase in demand during weekend or holiday season and were fully booked for Memorial Day Weekend.
Gas prices may also be encouraging people to travel in their vehicles. Some campground operators said that people were going trips to places like California and Mexico to travel around Colorado.
