Located down a gravel driveway a half mile off a paved road gives you the peace and quit country setting you have been looking for. Horses, piggy’s, chickens, and dogs are just some of the animals you might meet. Located 20 to 30 min from durango, 30 min to Mesa Verde and 50 min to purgatory ski resort.

Beautiful Country Hilltop
My family loved the baby goats and the pigs. There was lots of space to roam around. The stars were absolutely beautiful at night! This spot is at the top of a hill and it gets pretty windy, but it helped keep the heat down. Great location and lots of things to do around. We did Mesa Verde, Farmington Lake, and Durango/Silverton train ride. Loved every minute and cannot wait to go back!

Beautiful ranch & great experience
Cody went out of his way to make this a fabulous Hipcamp experience. My dogs and i had a blast! I got to pick cherries, gooseberries, and vegetables from the garden and he gave me a dozen eggs from his hens. We loved the pigs , horse, and their adorable dogs Maggie and MJ and Ammo. Full hookups and gorgeous 360 views. We even got a rainbow at sunset!

Great experience!
This place was awesome. Cody and Jen were great hosts and the property was beautiful. Great views from my campsite. Cody was easy to work with and was always responsive to our needs. If you want a safe place to camp look no further. Their two Great Pyrenees, Maggie and MJ, guarded out camp every night. Not that we needed guarding but they did. Lol. They were sweeties. They got along great with my dog as well. Enjoyed this place and the entire area so much we decided to stay two extra nights. Cody was great at giving me the lowdown on all the great places to visit and things I really needed to do. His advice to make sure and go to the notch of La Plata was the highlight of my trip. Thanks for a great experience and I’m looking forward to staying there again. Actually hated to leave because it began to feel a little like home.

Ranch Paradise
We loved our stay at the ranch. The property is beautiful and peaceful. Cody was prompt and clear in pre-check in communication, met us when we pulled in and helped us get settled in our spot. The spot was super easy in and out, hook ups were easily accessible and set up went smoothly. Cody is a great host and we loved having Maggie and MJ the ranch dogs around. They are the greatest.❤️ We only stayed a night but could’ve easily stayed a week. We highly recommend the ranch for short or long stays, and feel so lucky to have found this property. Hope to stay again!!

Gateway to the Southwest
What a great spot! We came down from the mountains on our way to Grand Canyon NP and found this to be the perfect half way point. Situated outside Durango this working farm has multiple points that make this an awesome stay. Parking is clean, level and has plenty of room to set up and be comfortable. Fifty amp electric, sewer and water (non potable) are a welcome luxury after spending a week boondocking in the backcountry. T-mobile and Sprint worked well at 5G speeds which is good for folks working remote. Upon arrival, Cody greeted us and made us feel welcome. He put a lot of work into providing a tier 1 camping spot and it shows. This is located on high ground and gives a spectacular view of the surrounding area. An outdoor target range is located on the property for those interested in trigger therapy, just ask Cody about that. The working dogs of the ranch are great ambassadors and made us feel secure, being as they guard the property from any wild animals. They became tolerant friends to our raucous puppy after a short introduction. Everything about this place was perfect. Our only regret was not being able to stay another day or two. Next time.
