Immerse yourself in nature's embrace as you find nothing but forest, endless and serene. If you're fond of scenic vistas, this site awaits you at the edge of the tree line, offering an expansive view that stretches beyond. Venture along game trails or hiking paths that crisscross the property, and with a little exploration, discover a hidden meadow nestled within the woods. The location is also a prime spot for observing hawks gracefully ride the winds. Set on a wooded mountainside, the site gazes out over Durango valley, promising breathtaking views. Over 95 acres of undisturbed forest and game trails beckon you to explore. Begin your journey with an easy-to-moderate trailhead found at the base of the driveway. For those seeking water adventures, Lemon and Vallecito reservoirs are a mere 30 minutes away, while the heart of downtown Durango is a convenient 10-15 minute drive down the road.Set on a wooded mountainside, the site gazes out over Durango valley, promising breathtaking views.

Wonderful views. A quiet place convenient to Durango and the area. It is indeed up on a hill in the pines. When arriving pull into the second driveway entrance go past the house and back into the spot. All services were available. Hosts were very helpful. We have a 38’ 5th wheel, a bit challenging with some tight turns but we were able to get it in place and loved our time there.

Great place to stay in Durango.
Host Benjamin meet us on our arrival. He made sure we knew where everything was and helped with some sightseeing advice. The sight itself is basically a driveway on the side of a beautiful mountain home. You will need at least a 20ft sewer hose if you intend to hook up. The location is ideal for seeing the sights in and around Durango. The location feels private and secure. A great choice for smaller rv’s and travel trailers.

Great spot, excellent host. We arrived late but Benjamin still met us and was very helpful. Great place for more primitive camping than developed campgrounds while still providing hookups for RVs.

We enjoyed camping on Ben's land! He met us when we arrived, he was very nice and showed us where to set up. There was a nice flat area which was large enough for our long sprinter van plus another car. We camped in the van and also set up a tent. It was great to have electricity and water. Even though Ben's house was up the hill, it was separated from the campsite by a long driveway and hidden by bushes so it felt private and it was quiet, surrounded by trees. There was a great view of Durango in the distance and it was close to town, while it felt secluded.
