Base Camp Family Campground is owned and operated by the Baker Family. Josh Baker first lived in Southern Colorado in the early 90's as a child, but his family moved away after a short time. His desire to move back here as an adult prompted him to start bringing his own family to Colorado for vacations. They purchased land in the valley in 2014 and moved to Colorado in 2020. They are using all they've learned from years of RV adventures, to continue the park's mission of providing a clean, affordable, spacious, well-run camping facility, and to be a centrally located "base camp" and hub of information for everything this unique area has to offer.
You'll be camping in the shadows of 14,000 ft. mountain peaks, in the largest high-desert alpine valley in the world, that is sprinkled with free-flowing artesian wells, hot springs and wet lands. Daily summer temperatures average 65 degrees, and it will get down into the 50's at night. That's perfect camping weather!
For native American tribes, including the Utes, Apache, Navajos, and others, this valley is considered the source of life, a place where humans and spirit enter and leave this world. The valley was considered so sacred, that no war would be waged here.
The ET Connection
As if all of the mountains, deserts, hot springs, and sacred ground weren't enough, The San Luis Valley is also known as a UFO hot spot! UFO sightings have been reported as far back as the 1600's.

He's my 30-pound terrier mix who has appointed himself protector of this land!Wally's Woods is 20 minutes (10 miles) from the town of San Luis where groceries, gas, and restaurants can be found. It's 2.5 hours from Colorado Springs, 2.5 hours from Pagosa Springs, and 1.25 hours from Taos, making it a great hub for exploring Southern CO and Northern NM.

The Rabbit Hole Ranch offers beautiful night skies with little to no light pollution and unobstructed views of the majestic Blanca Massif. The Great Sand Dunes and Zapata Falls is just a (gorgeous) 35 minute drive.
Camping here at the Rabbit Hole Ranch is primitive and dispersed (no numbered sites) and there 30 acres available for you to use. Just follow the signs to the designated area and pick out a spot you like.
Some spots have fire rings, some don’t. We are working on getting more, but in the meantime you’re welcome to bring your own. Or feel free to dig out a little hole. It works great and is easy to extinguish when you fill it back in and bury it. Please do not bury any trash.
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 only dog, Boudicca, is a working dog and she is more than happy to help keep you and your pets safe. Please help make her job easier by not leaving any food or trash in or around tents. Her name is Boudicca (BOO duh kuh) and she lost her two besties last year, so she needs extra love and treats!
Please keep your pets on leash or under control until you’re comfortably certain they get along with our dog. And please report any issues promptly.
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 typically do not strictly enforce quiet time during holidays.

While here one can see history come to life by way of our living history ranch and historic home, one of the first homesteads in Des Montes owned by the same family for over 150 years. See firsthand how the unique Acequia system of New Mexico has given life to the surrounding pastoral fields and the agricultural practices of the past still relevant in today’s Taos Valley.

Close enough to town for groceries and conveniences along with other sought after tourist attractions such as the Taos Pueblo, Taos Plaza and surrounding galleries/shops. In addition, Arroyo Seco and Arroyo Hondo are quaint little villages less than 10 minutes away for for addt'l groceries/market/restaurant options.

Lush high desert river oasis on three acres, nestled in a fertile valley in Carson National Forest, right between the fiery expanse of Taos and the rolling colorful formations of Abiquiu. Peaceful, private and serene land right by the river at the edge of a little quaint town called La Madera (145 people)- just 6 miles to the healing mineral Hot Springs of Ojo Caliente, a place of emergence or rebirth as known to the local Natives.
At the moment we have three options 1) Cosy & nestled Vintage Camper that can be heated, with kitchen, electricity and plenty of outdoor furniture with a fire pit and serene mountain views. 2) As well as a Gazebo Tree shaded campsite for tents only, with fire pit, outdoor seating and the tranquil sounds of the gently flowing river in the background. 3) If you would like to bring your own camper/or tent we have a willow brush enclosed meadow with stunning views. Some campsites have access to a guest bathroom inside the main house, others have private outhouses. We offer dog sitting so you can relax at the Hot Springs- check out the Extras.
*** Right by the river, held by a BLM ridge (makes for amazing sunset hikes), we have a tent campsite for several people that will be available once our bridge is finished- est. end of April '26. As well as a Gypsy Wagon with electric, water and kitchen.
My partner (senior therapist at Ojo Hot Springs) offers private massages that you'll find in the Extras.
+++ 6 miles to Ojo Caliente Hot Springs. There you will find the best restaurant in the area, with locally/organically farmed produce. The land is naturally and beautifully wild with lots of bird sounds. It is not a manicured campsite. The dirt rd down to the property is best suited for higher clearance vehicles, but is manageable for city cars.
With land by the river comes the mosquitos- June to August only. They are predominantly active during sunrise and sunset; long loose fitting clothes and a repellent work great.
Waterhole, Waterfall and climbing sites near by, as well as Plaza Blanca, Abiquiu, Ghost Ranch and the Taos Gorge are 30 mins drive away.

Cool spot! Close to great hiking in the gorge, lots of space for the dogs to run around, hot springs nearby too! We had too much wind for a fire but that's definitely not Don's fault :).
Note that Google Maps really doesn't want to route you across the John Dunn bridge, but that's definitely the easiest way in (I'm guessing it's closed only after a lot of rain?).

Kelly + her partner saved my 🍑 with a last minute reservation bc my other campsite fell thru. I texted Kelly about the late arrival after dark and she responded immediately and also had her husband come out and direct me onto the site. He was incredibly welcoming and showed me where the electric hookup was.
The property was difficult to find in the dark, but that's just due to the pitch black of the area. Doesn't help cell service is spotty. But again, Kelly + hubby for the win helping me arrive!
The only thing I wasn't expecting was how close to the road I was on the property, so you can hear vehicles (and some chickens) in the AM. The nighttime sky and stars were worth it though!

While the site, right on the highway, was not spacious or “park-like”, it was great for our needs for an a short overnight stop. It has electric and WiFi, was level for our 23’ RV, and there was very little road noise. Kelly responded immediately and offered all kinds of advice for activities and food. Eduardo came right out to welcome us and help us settle. He was great to chat with and also gave us good tips for our time in the area. Great hosts! I would not hesitate to stop here again.

Close to TSV and the sweet little village of Arroyo Seco but far enough away from neighbors and roads to feel secluded. Panoramic views par excellence! Don was great with communique and super helpful. Would not hesitate to stay again. Could use one more Hipcamp sign when reaching the field to reassure bleary eyed travelers :)

I love the view from spot one…especially at sunset…the rose light glowing onto the mountain peaks is really delicious. Kelly is so joyful about this property and about hosting, so that makes one feel at ease and welcome. It is near the road, so it’s not a middle-of-nowhere vibe, but it’s really beautiful and conveniently close to so much that one would want to see while in enchanted New Mexico. Highly recommend.

Jim’s place was great location for our ski weekend. Easy van camping and his extra room and hot tub were great amenities. Highly recommend.

What an awesome place to camp. Shera is the most wonderful host!
The hot tub is the most amazing thing to swim around in when looking at the stars.
