Rabbit Hole Ranch

102 sites · RVs, Tents40 acres · Alamosa East, CO

The Rabbit Hole Ranch offers beautiful unobstructed views of the majestic Blanca Massif and the Great Sand Dunes and is just a (gorgeous) 35 minute drive from both to include Zapata Falls. The Great Sand Dunes National Park is a must-see, and I am grateful for the opportunity to offer you a place nearby to set up camp and go exploring. Alamosa, the largest town in the SLV, is just 20 minutes away. With a population of around 9,800 Alamosa has that small town feel and has the goods and services you will need. Camping here at the Rabbit Hole Ranch is primitive and dispersed (no numbered sites) and there 30 acres available for you to use. Typically, you will experience a rare kind of solitude and silence that feels…. other-worldly, with incredible sunrises and sunsets filling the enormous skies. On holidays, however, expect it to be busy. Our two Great Pyrenees are here to help keep you and your pets (and our chickens) safe. Please help make their jobs easier by not leaving any food or trash in or around tents. Please keep your pets on leash or under control until you’re comfortably certain they get along with all four of our dogs. This year we have a new Great Pyrenees to greet you, his name is TheoVon and he is huge! Returning this season is KayLee also a GP and and Finn, who is a little Benji lookin rescue from Alaska who just LOVES everybody. And then we have our latest addition, Kya, Shes a rescue as well and spent way too much time in an apartment before coming to stay with us, This will be her first season with us and she is 1 1/2 years old. A more energetic dog than what were used to around here but so far so good! Hopefully you happy campers can help us socialize the new dogs! Quiet time begins at 10:00 pm. Note: Holidays still offer the excellent location and spectacular views, but are likely to be less quiet and far more busy. We do not strictly enforce quiet time during holidays.

Silverwest Estates @ Butler Airport

1 site · RV5 acres · Silver Cliff, CO

THAT MOUNTAIN VIEW THO... Use the Butler Airport main entrance (off County Rd 69) and follow the road (Airport Rd) for approximately 1.5 miles. Turn right onto Beech Boulevard and follow road for approximately .5 miles to the intersection of Beech Blvd and W Falcon Cir E. Take a left turn on W Falcon Cir E and follow to the end of the cull de sac. As you approach the end of the cull de sac (facing a distant castle-style home and away from the mountains) the 5 acre plot to your RIGHT is land you can occupy. I always stay on the cull de sac when I camp. The 5.5-acre lot (#41) sits on the south end of the Butler Airport located off the intersection of Beech Blvd and W Falcon Cir E. The road consists of compacted gravel and dirt, it is maintained (leveled and trimmed) by the HOA but the lot itself remains a little more primitive and unkempt. The taller grass in the area is an ideal feeding/resting spot for heard of Pronghorn deer. Coyotes can also be heard from a distance at night. RV’s and pop-up campers should have no problem driving on the roads or cull de sac at the end of W Falcon Cir, and should even be able to drive around the lot with little to no-problem as it relatively flat. There are dumpsters located along Beech Boulevard to throw away trash. The views and stargazing are amazing and you will find it difficult for the mountain range to leave your eye, but keep in mind this is an open grass lot with no shade or sun cover so I also recommend bringing equipment for shade/cover. Also, noteworthy, each of the neighbors are a minimum of 5 acres apart from lot #41, one of them is the President of the HOA, the other is a Dorito shaped Airb&b property.
