Site 5 - Cumberland High Alpine Campsites!
Best camping spot to date
Camping on top of the pass was an unforgettable experience. When Anthony told us it had the "best view in Colorado," I was a bit skeptical, thinking he might be overselling it. But after spending a night there, I can confidently say he wasn’t. My husband and I traveled through Rocky Mountain National Park, Aspen, and Gunnison, and while all of those places were stunning, camping at the pass was the highlight of our trip.
The sunset & sunrise from the top were breathtaking. At night, the stars were the most brilliant I’ve ever experienced, and the stillness up there made it feel like we were the only people on the planet. The views from the top were our favorite of the entire trip, and I can't imagine a better spot to camp. Highly recommend!🌄

Site 2 - Cumberland High Alpine Campsites!
Beautiful spot!!
What a beautiful campsite ! We had most of the whole site to ourselves. Beautiful views and lots of space. Takes some time to get to the top of the pass but it was worth it. Would love to go again

Site 3 - Cumberland High Alpine Campsites!
Epic place! Thankful for this place after our other plans fell through. Amazing star gazing and incredible views.
We were scheduled for spot three however after only finding 1,2,4, and 5 we settled in at 1 with nobody else around.
Only thing better would have been to stay longer.

Site 4 - Cumberland High Alpine Campsites!
We couldn't make it because of the road to get there and also it started snowing on the way up. We camped for free on the base somewhere closer to tincup. Our truck wasn't made for that intense off roading apparently . However the location is great for side by side and jeeps!

The view left us absolutely speechless. All of the sites were well maintained and spread out enough to allow for privacy. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend Anthony’s property to others without hesitation.

Camping here is truly an experience. Getting up Cumberland Pass needs to be taken with a lot of patience. Can you get up there with a normal car? Probably. Should you? Depends how confident you are in off roading. I got up fine in an all stock 2020 Kia Sportage AWD with all season tires. But it took a while to make sure I didn’t blow my tires or bottom out.
Now for the site: If you want views, especially a starry night sky, I’m not sure you can do better than this. It was truly an amazing experience being able to see the Milky Way with my naked eye.
For the mixed feelings, the listing is incorrect in listing a toilet. I messaged Anthony before booking asking about it so I was prepared. But keep that in mind. All the sites are also incredibly rocky and some not so level. If you’re car camping you’ll be fine with the rocks. Tent camping might be hard to find a smooth spot, or make one yourself. Site 2 was incredibly hard to get our cars level. I was able to make do okay being slanted but also keep that in mind.
I love this location and plan to be back sometime this summer. The cost to stay is pretty expensive for a primitive camp site. Being able to camp with these views is an experience. I would do it again and would recommend anyone to camp here at least once, but some might be put off by the high cost for a location with 0 amenities.
