Colorado Springs, Colo.’s nearest state park is adding a new camping option, according to The Gazette.
Or is “glamping” the term?
The two buildings under construction at Cheyenne Mountain State Park are indeed quite glamorous. “Beautiful, deluxe cabins,” a ranger calls them in a sneak peek video posted to the park’s Facebook page, showing the pine ceiling, hardwood floors and room for two bunkbeds, queen- and twin-sized.
The heated and air-conditioned cabins with bathrooms and showers will sleep up to six. Kitchenettes will include sinks, fridges and microwaves alongside a family-sized table. Outside there will be grills and Adirondack chairs overseeing views of the craggy mountain and Fort Carson on the plains. The cabins are separated by trees.
Local Colorado Parks and Wildlife spokesman Bill Vogrin called the cabins “90% or 95% done.” The hope is to open this winter or early spring, he said.
