I have a friend ask me to look on the internet for places to ride in Colorado, South of Denver, Colorado Springs or not far from there.  After looking it's like OMG so many options.

They have full living quarters, generator and can haul water if need to.  They're out for some great riding and would prefer water and electricity but not a must. 

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!

Just across the Colorado Border an Northern New Mexico, you have Valle Vidal with two campgrounds, Cimarron and Mcrystal.  It is pretty isolated and one of our favorite places to ride.  Neither place will be overrun with other campers. Cimarron is the nicer campground and we had gravity fed water for the animals and showers. However it wasn't potable. Mcrystal had potable water but I think they hauled it in.  We just take our drinking water and use the other water for showers etc.

I know NATRC holds a competitive trail ride on the Air Force Accademy land near Colorado Springs.  But it would be primative camping.   I've done a lot of NATRC competitive trail rides in colorado, mostly on the western slope. since they were held on public land ( BLM or Forest Service) they were all primative camping, But plenty of trails.

Some suggestions would be the Grand Mesa near Grand Junction,  Purgutory Ski area near Durango,
