We had a great time at this campsite! It had 360 Mountain View’s and was well appointed with a quality canvas tent and propane campfire. The tent kept us warm at night too!
The tent was very nice. There were string lights for the evening in the tent and the view from the deck was very beautiful! The property was pretty much an open field with views of the mountains. We had a wonderful time. No river or creek access.
A super beautiful rest stop for anyone who's taking Independence Pass. The view of the mountains is great to wake up to.
Great views! We hosted an engagement party here and the camp vibe was fantastic
I liked camping here, it was nice to have a mattress and enough room in the tent for our dog’s crate (he prefers it to our bed/sleeping bag). Only 20 minutes away from Salida (and Buena Vista), with excellent Mountain Views. The site description accurately matches in-person. Recommend!
Beautiful setting, the tent was simple and clean. A little tricking getting out there in the dark so recommend arriving during daylight
