My partner and I have camped here twice now and we love it, hospitable staff, open area for camping with a table and bonfire area as well. Beautiful sunsets and sunrises and lighting around the area. They just added glamping areas to rent with other amenities like shower, pool table and more! We will definitely be returning in the near future!

Weekend Trip to Bowen Ranch Deep Creek Hot Springs

High desert camping is always a little rough and dusty, but that’s part of the charm. The real highlight, without a doubt, was the hot springs. Truly nature’s perfect creation—exactly what comes to mind when you imagine a hot spring. It had everything: deep and clean water, hot and cool pockets, shallow areas to relax. Just incredible. Getting there (and back) wasn’t easy, but absolutely worth it. Bring plenty of water, sunscreen, and an open mind—yes, there are naked people.

Great experience that I will return soon. At night the road was a little rocky but the host came out friendly to great and check in. Hot springs were amazing as well as the campsite with the great outdoor amenities. Bathrooms are a bit far but are clean and well kept. Campground offer many great activities that you should find out on your own curiosity.

It was a last minute find, the instructions to Bowen Ranch were helpful as it’s a winding drive from town. Got to meet Big B and the sweetest horses. Jess and the team were great hosts as well. Good camp sites, restrooms and water sources.

Weekend Trip to Bowen Ranch Deep Creek Hot Springs

We went in mid June and it was gorgeous! Still got pretty cold at night as you are practically in the desert so bring a good quilt or blankets. The hike to the hot springs is amazing with some cool views. I would say its a pretty easy hike for experienced hikers but medium to hard for beginners. Make sure to bring plenty of water, snacks, and extra bags - I saw trash along the hike and down at the hot springs which is so sad to see and ruins it for others - Overall, it was a beautiful spot and much cleaner than other hot springs I've been to. Leave it better!! Leave No Trace!!

The site was one of the coolest sites I’ve camped at in a long time. Lots of privacy and space between campers. We got all sorts of visitors from horses to pigs. Clean bathrooms and showers. The host were super friendly. I will definitely come back. The only drawback was the drive up was a little confusing. But the directions the host gave on point.

Bowen Ranch was a great place to camp at. HOT SHOWERS restrooms were clean. The staff running the sites very helpful.The glamping tents look pretty cool might have to check them out next time..Nice hike down to the hot springs it is a bit difficult on the way back up. Pack plenty of water. Just a reminder it is clothing optional certain areas at the Ranch and at the hot springs.

I had a great time at Deep Creek Camp. The directions to the camp are exactly as described, so follow them closely. The host I met, Bob, was friendly and helpful. The camp sites had almost no litter. Plenty of picnic tables and no crowds, though it was a weeknight. It’s no more than 5 minute drive to the DC trailhead. Great place to see the stars at night. Lots of squirrels and other rodents around to steal your food. Keep an eye on it.
