Nederland, CO · 3 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Welcome to Camp Wilder! We are an off-the-beaten-path camp offering peace and solitude.
The cabin is very special to my family and me. It was passed down as a mining claim from my grandmother who founded it in the '60s. The vision for the land was simply perfect.
A small 10 x 10 cabin with the whole mountain to explore and whoever they wished to bring with them.
The town of Nederland is 10 minutes down the road where you can fish at Baker Reservoir. Lots of fun little stores in town to keep the family busy.
Wildlife is everywhere up by the cabin/campsite, always remember don't leave food lying around with lots of great things to look for around the magical town of Nederland.
The cabin sleeps up to 8 with the futon downstairs being very comfortable and 3" foam upstairs in the loft for more sleeping area. Bring your sleeping bags to stay cozy at night. There are lanterns inside to light up your night with a wood stove to keep you warm at night. The ground around it is sloped so you may have a hard time setting up any tents around the cabin.
The grocery store is in Nederland where you can buy food, Coleman green propane bottles, gallon jugs of water and wood. There is a 3 burner Coleman, stove to cook on with limited pots & pans as well as silverware.
Road disclaimer, the road to the cabin is one lane dirt road. The drive up to the cabin is pretty good but the turn onto the single dirt road to the cabin has a slight dip, if you have a low-clearance car it may bottom out when you are turning so be careful.
No Trailers. They will not be able to turn around once there.
Recommend vehicles with AWD. Go 3.4 miles up Caribou road. Turn right @ yellow stakes go .4 miles. Park on the left. Hike down to the cabin between yellow stakes.
We are @ 10,000 feet and it is a slight hike to the cabin. Go 3.4 miles up Caribou road. Turn right @ yellow stakes go .4 miles
When leaving please make sure both door locks are locked, put the key in the lock box and mix the code for the next camper.

Weekend Trip to Junction West Durango
Perfect for the in-between camper that wants the rustic vibe without having to think about setting things up themselves. Booked their small cabin to myself and it was perfect for an overnight stop but I'd upgrade to a more comfortable cabin for an extended stay. Can fit 4 but it's a little cramped especially with gear. 2 pax with gear would be ideal. Beds come with mattresses but no bedding, definitely on the firm side so if you can bring some additional bedding to soften it up with a sleeping pad/sleeping bad, would be great. There's a fan and a heater to keep you comfortable. Bathrooms were very clean but the highlight was definitely being able to wake up and hear the sounds of the Durango Silverton steam train echoing faintly through the valley and walk down and have a cup of coffee on the riverbank. A little on the pricey side, for a cabin, but they do have all the amenities of civilization on site.
