Purgatory Riverbottoms

8 sites ¡ Tents5 acres ¡ Trinidad, CO
If camsites are full, contact me. There is tons of space. Upon arrival, come straight down Cottonwood Avenue past the private signs where the asphalt ends and straight to the Teepee. We are on a Peninsula with the river on one side and an irrigation creek down the other. We own 1/4 stretch along the river across from the riverwalk and downtown. The "Trinidad" lights shine down from atop Simpsons Rest which is a public area. It has an incredible view of Trinidad ans hidden caves and areas to explore as well. The area we own is Picketwire Valley. It was renamed Picketwire because the French couldn't pronounce Purgatory. The French retreated to Simpsons Rest are were surrounded by Indians and were starved etc. The large caves they hid in, have since covered over.

Whispering Winds Retreat

3 sites ¡ Tents5 acres ¡ Fort Garland, CO
Welcome to our camping spot nestled in the Sangre de Cristo mountains near Fort Garland, CO. Please note that this location is currently in development, and each year it will become more magical and inviting. At present, the camp remains rugged and basic, featuring two wooden pads for camping with simple tents. Additionally, there's a cooking area with a fold-out tabletop and a basic stone fire pit. Please exercise caution as fire bans may be in effect. Despite its simplicity, this site offers plenty to explore downhill and around the area, boasting spectacular views down the valley. You can listen to the wind sing and may even be visited by birds and other wildlife. Be mindful of your surroundings, as we've heard big cats and have seen bears in the area. Also, watch out for prickly plants underfoot, as there are cactus patches scattered around off the main path.
