Ben’s land is absolutely stunning and is 100% worth the stay. We managed to make the 1/4 mile trek to the site in a 2WD Ford Fusion, but I would recommend a vehicle with more clearance. It was private, clean, and safe. Make sure to pack in whatever you need as you’ll probably want to stay put once you get there. A++ Host and site!

Beautiful remote spot! A bit challenging to drive out from after a big overnight storm. We almost got stuck in the mud coming out in our AWD. I let the host know and he said he’ll take care of it so it shouldn’t be a future issue. Super responsive communication. Not his fault with the surprise monsoon!

A beautiful spot to camp. Lovely views very quiet, although on occasion there was a hum from the electric station. About 13-15 min from downtown Durango. Easy drive. Great location!

No grizzlies at Grizzly Peak.
We totally enjoyed our stay at grizzly peak. It was kind of like dispersed camping because there are no amenities like water, toilet, or electricity. The short right in on a dirt trail is kind of sketchy. But the campsite is in a beautiful place. It is quiet, clean and there is a picnic table. It is fairly close to Durango.

Perfect spot pretty close to town for a quiet night in a tent. Great view and all basic site gear.

Nice & quiet
Nice site that felt far-away from the maddening Durango crowds. Simple setup but all we needed to have a good rest. Could use a little weed-whacking on the “driveway” but clean and well tended otherwise.
