Pinion Farm Homestead located in the town of Nucla, CO is a 40-acre new farm/orchard operation that currently includes pigs, rotational grazing cows and sometimes horses, organically-grown vegetable garden, hay pastures and practices regenerative agriculture within the heirloom apple orchards onsite. Originally home to the Uncompahgre Ute Native Americans, Nucla was founded by a socialist group from Denver, the Colorado Cooperative Company. Some of the members built (some sent money) a 17-mile ditch to carry water from the San Miguel River to the mesa top. Pinion Farm Homestead was homesteaded by the Lundahl family and were founding members of the cooperative. The original farm included an old farmhouse, a chicken coop, and a winter storage building that are all still standing. The Lundahl family raised pigs, chickens and cows, cultivated apple, peach, mulberry, apricot and plum trees, and grew hay, corn, oats, barley and vegetables. John Lundahl owned the creamery for a short time as well.

Easy camping in cabin

The Prospector Cabin

Nice cabin on a farm. It is next to main street, but its very quiet. like 1 car an hour quiet. Cell reception is pretty poor. Property is fenced in. But I saw a family of deer in front of me. The queen size bed is very nice. I slept well on it. There's a free Chargepoint charger walking distance from site. Its very slow. All the shops were closed when I was staying, but there is a cafe close by.

Nice lil cabin

The Prospector Cabin

Great little cabin. And location. It is located next to a road but the road noise was minimal. When I was there over the 4th of July there were two small active hornets nests and no sun shade over the porch as shown in the pictures but those things didn’t ruin our lovely stay. Someone came to the property twice and walked around but said nothing as to if they were with the property. Host was unresponsive to my two inquires while staying at the property. The views of the property from the porch are stunning. If star gazing is your thing this location will not disappoint. Deer visited the fields often and even came close to the cabin. Cabin was clean, really nice bed, and nice cross breeze if you open the windows.

Cute little cabin in small town CO

The Prospector Cabin

The site is super hard to find if you’re coming in late at night. A lit up sign or something would be hellpful since the town is so small and has poor cell service! A battery powered fan in the cabins may be a nice addition as well! Otherwise it was super cute and a great place to lay our heads for the night before we headed out the next day!

Cute & cozy

The Prospector Cabin

We stayed in the smaller cabin and it was perfect for what we needed. Clean, cute, and cozy. If you do stay here bring a flash light and water. The host is pretty quick to respond. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you 😊
