Do you want a large, private, uniquely situated, pet friendly CampSpot™ to yourselves or family with a BATHHOUSE where it can be so quiet and some days there are stars for as deep as you can see? We have about 300 of those days and nights. Usually can stay longer on Sundays! We are 72 acres of piñon trees, some small animal life and crickets tucked against a mesa just a few minutes from town. Bring your shoe prints! We have sandboards! $15 per day! We are approximately a 35 minute beautiful drive from the National Sand Dunes around Mt. Blanca. (14'r). 2 minutes from the Mountain Home State Wildlife Park and reservoir where you can fish swim chill cookout etc. You can bike, hike, Swim, jet ski or fish at the newly stocked reservoir. Firewood must be purchased at the campsite. Pet friendly!

The views were so beautiful & the directions were super clear! Farther away from the Sand Dunes than I thought, but the drive was still worth it! It was a great campsite to come back to afterwards. There were a variety of campsites, each with such good views of the mountains and stars at night. The small town nearby (Fort Garland) had a few cute antique stores with lovely owners. HIGHLY recommend All-Gon Restaurant and Pizzeria. The noodles and nachos were fantastic!!!

Not too far from Sand Dunes
Very secluded with great view! And close enough to Sand Dunes.

Trinity again!
This is our second trip to this location! We loved the added the outdoor composting toilets that we found near our campsite. We stayed at the Trinity campsite, which always has gorgeous sunrises and sunsets.

Peaceful and private!
It was a very peaceful and private stay, even when there were other campers there, they weren't visible and we never crossed paths. Bring your own water and tp. Pack in, pack out as there is no trash receptacle on the campgrounds. The outdoor shower and toilet were suuuch a nice amenity to have nearby, thank you Mr. Cody for all your hard work in supplying these, as well as the firewood! There was a nice little reservoir nearby where we caught some sun rays, and it was maybe 35/40 minutes from Great Sand Dunes, 10 or so minutes from town. All in all we had a great experience at Campe Diem and would certainly recommend to any friend.
