Beautiful weekend at Linda’s ranch. Linda was an incredible host and made us feel so welcome with lots of amenities and kindness. She welcomes you warmly and gave us some wonderful recommendations for our stay in town & even helped us out with directions to nearby places & with some technical difficulties we had with our camping gear. Oh, and the farm animals around are so friendly and fun to pet! Thank you Linda for the best stay!

Linda’s place is a 20 minute easy drive from Durango and a nice quiet place to stay for the night.

Quiet, Sunny Spot
I overall had a lovely time. The host Linda is just the sweetest. She provided a welcome packet with things to do around Durango and walked me to the different spots I could camp. I'm working from the road and had excellent signal for my phone and hotspot and had no issues with my connection. The one important thing to consider is that she does have horses and donkeys that are free roaming on the property, so it's important that you're comfortable with that.

Really enjoyed camping in our van at Linda’s place. We got a chance to hang out with and pet the horses and donkeys, as well as play with her very friendly dog. We enjoyed the elk bulls making there distinctive sound at night and the many birds singing in the morning.
