We stayed here in June 2020, and had a wonderful time. This small family owned RV park is a real gem in the high altitude (10,000 feet) South Park area of Colorado.
Sharing a shorter review here, but have a more thorough review at our website RVLove.com (link below)
It is unassuming from the road, and you might think it has a lot of road noise being so close to highway 285. But, our site was further toward the back, and the sounds of the river overpowered the road noise. And our site was right at the back so it almost felt like we were boondocking sometimes with all the space around us.
The town of Fairplay has a great little museum, restaurants and other attractions, especially for outdoor enthusiasts. But it is also a short drive to the ski town Breckenridge, which is why many people like staying here summer and winter. Winter time is very cold in this area, but some like having their base in this RV resort for snow skiing in the Breckenridge area. The high elevation makes for beautifully moderate weather in the peak of summer (which is when we stayed).
It is cool that this RV park is so close to downtown Fairplay that you can walk or ride a bike to the local brewery, the grocery store, hardware store, or tourist attractions.
This RV park also offers a dump station for travelers coming in and out of the mountains, which is a great service so that RVers don't need to carry the extra weight up and down the mountain passes. Dump depends on the size of the RV and ranges from $5-$20.
We loved our stay and plan to stay here again in the future.

Middlefork Rv Resort is conveniently located off the main road in Fairplay, Colorado. There is easy access to the local grocery store, hardware store and a gas station.
We are usually boondockers and stayed one night to use the laundry facilities for our sheets.
The campground is a typical RV Park with a gravel drive and decently spaced sites. There was plenty of room for our tow vehicle to park next to our trailer and I noted that those with slides out were not encroaching on their neighbors.
Our site was pull through and easy to access. The owner quickly provided us with a map to our site and we were at it within a few minutes. Hookups were easy to locate, however for site 6, the sewer was a bit far forward for our trailer, not allowing us to park the truck in front.
Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. Unfortunately the area had extremely high wind which prevented a fire, but was nice to cool the trailer.
The laundry room had 2 washers and 2 dryers and each load was about $2 depending on the options chosen. The shower rooms were clean.
Everyone we met was friendly and the area was peaceful. The only detractors were the road noise and lack of shade. The owner has planted many young trees so eventually the area will be lightly shaded.
There is a small walking trail next to a pond. There are seats placed along the waters edge and the area is peaceful. The area is planted with flowers.
The dog walk is gravel and is in the back of the resort. The path from the dog walk continues to the river and is a nice stoll for a small dog. There is little grass which posed a problem for my dog (we are from the eastern US).
We had between 3 and 4 bars of Verizon 4G here. There was free WiFi, however it was only 5 megabit download and 5 megabit upload at our site. It was 20 megabit download and 20 megabit upload at the bathhouse so I suggest a site nearer to the back for a better connection.

We just called to make a reservation but the guy on the phone said no water hookups and he strongly doesn't recommend filling up tanks... So how are we suppose to wash dishes, etc?! We've stayed in 6 rv resorts in Colorado this winter with temperatures dipping to -30°F... Every Colorado rv park has easily accommodated these conditions but apparently this RV Park can't. No sewer, no water.
Plus, he wants full price just for electric hookup.
We've stayed at places twice as nice with full hookups and for 2/3rds the price.

We here because it was the closest place open if you wanted to go to Breckenridge for skiing.
1st - it is very hard to find. Either have to go through a parking lot of (Ace Hardware, Grocery Store) or go around and figure out which way to go. Hint, go down to the right.
2nd - the water froze at the faucet even though it was covered with a trash can and some stuffing. The Owner or Manager should have probably come and made sure we had it covered right.
3rd - they did plow but no salt or sand so it is very slippery
Manager or Owner was nice but was not able to give too much help when asking questions. When asking for best directions out he kept naming passes that we had no idea about. We are not from CO so that didn't help.
Like I said it is not really bad but I wouldn't go back.

We were next to a running stream, space 26 very back space that was easy to back in. The sound of running water was very peaceful and nice. Any space from 26 and higher will put you next to the stream which we recommend. Spaces are average size and flat with room to park a vehicle. We got full hookup and price for September was good compared to others. Manager was a great host. Helped us with uhaul truck rental that we used to tow our sxs to the ohv riding area to see the color change. Location was great. Next to a local market, brewery and restaurants. Bathrooms were clean. There is one dryer for $1.00 and one washer for $1.25 per load. Wifi is fastest I seen at a park. Access to the park is through the front parking lot of the market, Ace hardware and restaurant. No biggy even for a 36ft RV with a 16ft enclosed trailer. All in all I would recommend this park.

Very confusing to find. Very bumpy access road. Sites so tight you can pass notes between units. Great views of your neighbor's slide, tho. So sad to come to Colorado and have to keep all your shades down. Other guests parked in road so have to run an obstacle course to the site.

The park is nestled neatly beneath the South park brewery and Prathers Market on the perimeter of Fairplay. It was a little tricky to get into coming from La Vita (Southeast) as you have to take a right into the parking lot and another hard right to get down the hill. Its easy if the parking lot is empty, if not, it can be a little tricky.
Since we booked late we secured an electric-only site. We were able to fill up our tanks with water but we had to wait in line. The fill station doubles as the dump station and there was a line more often than not. Our space (43) was in the front across from the station.
The space was level but super narrow. I had to step into the neighbors spot to get out every time. Also when it rained our tongue stabilizer sunk about an inch or 2. It caused our stabilizers to 'pop' in the middle of the night. They didnt break, but did take some stress.
The Wifi is smoking fast and we were able to stream at will.
The host was great and very accommodating. He even helped us retrieve some mail from the post office. NOTE - Don't get USPS delivered to the camp sight. UPS/FedEx/DHL only. The county doesn't deliver mail apparently. but again, the host hooked us up.
The dog area, fishing hole, proximity to Breckenridge, downtown Fairlplay were all great and made the stay worthwhile. I would stay here again, but would reserve ahead to get a full hookup sight.

Staff friendly and concerned. Maybe the only time in 5 years of RV parks that a staff member came by afterwards to ask me if I like the site. The sites are something like decomposed granite, fine rock, smooth and level. Road is paved asphalt, great condition. Hookups are in good condition as well as landscaping. Nice to shave grocery and restaurant so near. Quiet and dark at night except I think I could hear the water in the nearby creek, nice sound. 30 minute easy ride to Breck (in early June). Fortunately Wifi worked well because my AT&T didn't, even with 5 bars 4G (not LTE). I recommend Middlefork RV Park if you are staying in the area. GPS note. Enter the RV park through the shopping center parking lot. My GPS tried to take me another way.
