Courage Creek Camp and Trails

1 site · Tent5 acres · Utuado, PR
The campsite comes with 8'x10' Coleman tent and 6' table included. If you would rather use your own tent, that can be arranged. Please message me if needed. Nestled in the mountains of Utuado, Puerto Rico, tucked into our valley, you will find the camp. Be awakened by the sunrise over the mountain tops, near and far. The creek and trails will be waiting, after you enjoy your morning Puerto Rican coffee and fresh bread. Puerto Rican meals and Evening Campfire available. 420med👍 We have many additional options to add to your campsite and experience here. Please see all the extras we have to offer. Reserve them with you date. Utuado has so many great recreational outdoor activities ( See Photos). Rivers, waterfalls, beaches, flowers, culture and much more. We can give you ideas and directions for the things you might be interested in experiencing. With only one campsite on the property, and the comfortably secluded surroundings, you will indulge in peace and beauty. Campers leave feeling refreshed and healthier than they arrived. The fresh air, the perfect sunshine and good quality mountain food feel great to consume. You can enjoy the plentitude of animals here and surrounding the property. Both wild and domestic. If you're a bird watcher, this is like a natural sanctuary. Song birds sing all through the day, and the doves snore beautifully at night. Cranes, owls, hawks, humming birds, parrots, and many more I'm not familiar with visit all the time. We got farm ducks, and chickens too. My neighbor has a flock of Peacocks that are usually out to be seen (it's a hike to see them, but we can take you there if you'd like). Coqui's singing romantic songs all through the night. Crabs in the creek for the kids to catch. NO large iguanas have been seen here. Small tree lizards is all we've ever seen here. We have a lot of fruit trees on the property. If you see anything ready for the taking let us know and you can partake in the experience of harvesting and eating it. Bananas, avocados, soursop, guava, fig, calabaza, coffee, name, coconuts, pana pen, and more. Clean filtered mountain water is available for purchase. As well we keep a regular supply of Caribbean snacks available. Sweet and savory available for purchase. Hope to see you.
