Directions to Lakeside KOA

 


From Interstate 25
Take exit 269 B and head west on Colorado Highway 14 into Fort Collins. Follow the signs to U.S. Highway 287 north (about ten minutes). Take 287 north until you get to the northern edge of Fort Collins (about ten minutes). Shortly thereafter, 287 will split off to the right to go to Laramie. Do not follow 287 at this point. Rather, continue straight into the town of Laporte. The second stoplight after this split will be Taft Hill Road (CR 19). Turn left onto Taft Hill Road (CR 19). Now get into the very first left-hand turning lane that you come to, which is about 1/2 mile down Taft Hill Road (CR 19). Turn left and follow the concrete driveway straight through the gate.

From Laramie
Take U.S. Highway 287 south approximately 58 miles to the first stop light. Just prior to that stop light, take the off ramp to the right. (As a reference: you will pass the Poudre Canyon KOA on your left six miles before the light.) Then at the very next stoplight (Taft Hill Road, also CR 19), turn left. Now get into the very first left-hand turning lane that you come to, which is about 1/2 mile down Taft Hill Road (CR 19). Turn left and follow the concrete driveway straight through the gate.
