There is one large campground that can hold up to 5 RV's and 1 secluded tent small camper site to choose from. Guest are welcome to purchase vegetables and fresh farm eggs.
Absolutely beautiful property with perfect accommodations for a tent. There was a fire pit and firewood, and a spot to park our hatchback, so no 4x4 was needed. 100% recommend to anyone in the area or anyone trying to be near Durango or Mesa Verde National Park.
This was a great location and find for our late arrival into Durango, which is only 25-30 minutes away. Erin was very welcoming and guided us to our camp site which was perfect for our truck camper. The space was setup with a fire pit, picnic table and trash bin. The area was clean and spacious for tent, car of RV setup. Thank you Erin for your hospitality!
Tranquility indeed! Sweet little spot not far off the blacktop. Working ranch. Turkey, deer and a small docile herd of cows. Erin greeted us with a gift from her garden and the site was clean with ample firewood. You will hear some distant road noise but we didn’t see another soul. In beautiful, crowded Southern Colorado it was a great sanctuary. Nice firepit, picnic table, shovel, trash can, electric, non-potable water.
Erin’s land was so quiet and peaceful for the night that we stayed there. My pups loved being able to run around and wore themselves out and were ready for bed as soon as the sun set.
Erin was very polite. We stayed two nights. The spot is very peaceful. Would stay again.
