Quiet, cozy, and beautiful campsite
Tent · With pets
This was such a dreamy campsite. My husband and I are driving from Utah to Texas with our two dogs and decided to stop in Hesperus since it was just as the aspens were changing from green to gold, which made for an incredible drive.
The area was breathtaking and the campsite itself was so cozy. We are used to true primitive camping, so having a small sink, outhouse, table, chairs, stove, water, wood, and a few extra supplies was amazing. Our dog had the absolute best time running around on the property, and we took advantage of the wifi to check work notifications (had to walk just a bit up the hill to get solid connection which wasn't an issue). If you have a tent that's 4p or bigger, you won't be able to set up on the wooden platform, but there is plenty of other spots to choose from.
Everything was private, and it felt so magical sitting in that space. I hope we get the chance to swing through again in the future.
