Big parking lot with plenty of spaces. Felt very safe and it's right off the interstate.

Report Check-In

Arrived and selected a good spot, went inside to check out the store. Returned to find two campers had portable gas generators sitting in the parking lot and running near us, the fumes from the exhaust was terrible.

After relocating away from the fumes we were able to open our windows, a couple of sprinters parked near us and all was well…

Report Check-In

I parked here after seeing one of the review. I decided to ask a staff inside the store to make sure it’s okay to park for the evening and she was super nice and told me “absolutely” Picked up a couple of items while I was there. Left by 6:30 AM. It was quiet and there’s a handful of other vans and RV. Let’s keep this store happy and welcoming to this community . Leave no trace and remain respectful.

We stayed here for one night. Arrive late on a Saturday et leave before opening on the Sunday.
Stay close to the boat service.
Keep clean the place.
Thank to let us stay for the night. It’s quiet difficult in this area to find a place.

this is the best place to park overnight in co springs. it’s monitored by security but they don’t bother you at all

Report Check-In

Called and asked if it was ok for one night stay. The women who answered was very pleasant and stated that we could stay near the boat area. Several other vans and rv. Watched a lightening storm. Dark but security on site so it was perfect.

I stayed here overnight several times during my visit to Colorado Springs. I try not to stay overnight consecutive nights. I had no issue staying here. It was a quiet parking lot. There were several other camper vans and fifth wheels in the parking area. I’d stay again.

Report Check-In

As others described! Great stopover, about 10 other vans, RVs, car campers. When we called they said park near those boats however everyone else was parked towards the side in the front so we joined them there. One thing I didn't see other reviews note is that the Air Force Academy across the highway started flying jets around 7am.

Report Check-In

I stayed here two nights (not in a row). There were multiple other people both nights (around 6 or so), ranging from RVs to vans to cars. Everyone was quiet and it's distanced from any major roads so I didn't hear much road noise. Bless this Bass Pro Shops! Seems to be the best place in Colorado Springs.

Report Check-In

Spent one night against the wall in the back by the boat area. Many others spending the night. Security around but didn’t bother at all. I was in late out early so I didn’t check in at all inside. Nice grass behind the building for the dogs as well.

Report Check-In

We pulled in around 6:00pm and there were already 4 campers in the parking lot. We went in to check if it’s ok to spend the night in the parking lot. The answer was yes. The store and parking lot are very well maintained. There are a lot stores/restaurants around the area and we feel safe here.

Report Check-In

Great place without any problems. Big, quiet and well lit parking lot.

Report Check-In

Spent a couple of nights here. The employees leave around 11-11:30, and it's really quiet after that. Large parking lot, so I had nobody anywhere near me.

Report Check-In

Really nice place to stay for the night. Lots of good restaurants and shops around plus great views. Staff was very friendly.

Report Check-In

Super large parking lot and RVs everywhere! Nice quiet night! Glad I stopped here.

Report Check-In

While all the Walmarts and Cracker Barrel’s In the area don’t allow overnight parking Bass Pro Shop does. Large open lot can accommodate large trailers/rigs.

Report Check-In

Huge parking lot. Called ahead of time and asked if we could stay overnight. Staff on phone said we can stay for only one night and to park on the south end (near the Tracker Boat Center).

Report Check-In

BEWARE - Mall security came after dark and asked us to move immediately, stating there's no overnight parking permitted in the Bass Pro parking lot. They said that Bass Pro had already been warned about the situation.

Report Check-In

Got kicked out by pavillion security at 12:50 am. Had just got there 20 min earlier and hadn't fully settled in, so moving wasn't too bad. Will backtrack to the Valero off i25 to the north as I saw some RVs parked there as I drove to this location.

Report Check-In

Bass pro for the win! Stay quiet and don’t leave any trash. Feels very safe, there were a few other vans and a bus.

Report Check-In

Called to ask. They said yes, but only 1 night per year. instructions were to park on the south side of the parking lot. Greatful for a nice and safe spot.

Report Check-In

Thank god for this spot! I needed it last night after the spots I tried didn’t pan out. A lot of vans and RVs, felt super safe. @thislifeunraveled

entered about midnight, beautiful sunrise in AM. No issues in sedan, parked near other vans/trucks/RVs. bathrooms and water fountain inside BPS. thankful for this spot.

Report Check-In

Good spot for a night. Fairly quiet, and a few other rigs spending the night. One thing to note, they are enforcing a 1 night per year restriction. See photo. Please don't abuse this to keep it open for all.

Report Check-In

Great spot for the night! They left a note on our door the next morning saying they only allow for one night.

Report Check-In

Great location, about 6 other RVs/vans back by the boat section of the parking lot. Safe, well lit, small grass area for walking the dogs. Walking distance to great food, bars and amenities.

Report Check-In

good spot. 10 or so other vehicles already here when I arrived after dark but parking lot is big. quiet. good Verizon signal. did not park in the back corner where the gps takes you, just settled in with the rest of the folk on the north east side

Report Check-In

This is absolutely great of them to allow RV parking. So many places in this area don't allow it including the Pilot truck stop. There are lots of other R v's here, they seem to trickle in around dark. There are shops and restaurants within walking distance which makes this really perfect. I plan to stay here for a few days. I went inside the store and it is fantastic. Probably one of the best stores I've ever been in because it is so ornate.

Report Check-In

Lots of Rv, Campers , Vans. Safe quiet
Thanks BassPro !!!

The Bass Pro shop is a great quick place to stay. there were other travelers in their campers. we did call ahead of time and they said that it was fine. it is right off I-25.

Great overnight. If you park on the far north/west side you have a nice view of the mountains and the spots are fairly level. Quiet night.

Report Check-In

Huge parking lot. About ten other Vans, RVs and trailers for an overnight stay

Stayed two days at this huge lot. Restrooms are at the back of the store so use your own in your rig. Lots of restaurants.

Report Check-In

Quite spot mostly in a great area plenty of shops, food, and fuel around. Right off the highways so an easy on off

Report Check-In

Huge parking lot, 5 other big RVs here when we parked overnight. Lucky enough to come on a “loyalty night” and they had a free dinner out and a huge raffle for prizes

Report Check-In

I was sooo happy to find this place after realizing all the Walmart’s in CO Springs are owned by the city with “enforced towing” I didn’t want to find out even though I’m in a vehicle and nonchalant. I never thought I’d miss the sound of an RV running in the middle of the night. Basspro shop feels fancy, restaurant attached. Closing time 9pm for the shop. I didn’t check in at the restaurant for serving hours. Walmart heading north is 10mins away 24hr
