RV or trailer over 20 feet? Use Oversized Vehicle Parking.
Oversized Vehicle Parking at Colorado Springs Municipal Airport (COS) is a marked surface lot set aside for vehicles that don’t fit standard stalls, including longer RVs, trailers, and large trucks. The lot serves Terminal 1 and feeds into the same access road system as the main parking areas by the terminal. If your vehicle is too long or tall for the regular garage or surface lots, this is the airport’s designated option.
This is an uncovered surface lot, so your rig sits in the open Colorado sun, wind, and winter weather; there’s no height restriction bar like the terminal garage. Pricing for Oversized Vehicle Parking generally follows the airport’s daily-rate structure, so budget as if you’re paying a regular on-airport daily rate rather than off-airport discount pricing. Payment runs through the same ticket and exit gate system as the other COS lots, using credit card at exit.
The oversized lot sits within the main airport loop along Milton E. Proby Parkway, a short drive from the single terminal at 7770 Milton E. Proby Parkway. Walking time depends on where you park your RV or trailer, but plan on at least 5–10 minutes from the far end of the lot to the terminal doors, especially if you’re unloading gear or kids. There is no dedicated shuttle reported for this specific lot, so assume you’re on foot.
Because enthusiast forums and review sites have almost no first‑hand reports on Oversized Vehicle Parking at COS, regulars likely just treat it as standard on-airport parking with extra length space. You won’t find published perks like hookups, dump stations, or overnight camping amenities; this is parking only, not an RV park. Plan to arrive at least 30 minutes earlier than usual to sort out any questions with the parking attendant if your setup is unusually long or involves multiple trailers.
