We are closed for the season. PLEASE READ IN ITS ENTIRETY 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 dogs are working dogs and they are more than happy to help keep you and your pets safe. Please help make their jobs easier by not leaving any food or trash in or around tents. Please keep your pets on leash or under control until you’re comfortably certain they get along with our dogs. And please report any issues promptly. This year we have a new Great Pyrenees to greet you, her name is Boudicca and she’s excited to meet everyone! Returning this season is 12 year old KayLee, also a GP and and Finn, our little dude from Alaska. 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.

1 night at Sand Dunes Base Camp

Tremendously gorgeous views! Very quiet area with pretty clear directions to site. A fire pit is available, we made s'mores and had a great time. Once we went to bed we did hear (likely) coyotes howling in the distance and with small critters rustling near the tent, nothing dangerous or unusual for the type of area. Definitely would recommend especially for the quick access to the Great Sand Dunes Nat’l Park!!

The stars were amazing and the working doggos came to hang out with us frequently throughout the day and keep us safe from coyotes.

Perfect desert style camping! Bring your own shade! ☀️ Thank you for providing water with large tank for the unbeatable camping bathroom experience! A flush toilet and a HOT shower under the incredible starry skies are unmatched! The lake is a 3 min drive or a small hike away. You cannot swim in this lake but there's plenty of beach and you can still fish and be on-water! The small town aboit 12 mins away is perfect for any last minute or forgotten quick grabs.

We had a great time staying on Meghan’s land. We rolled in late for our stay, but had no trouble with the clear instructions she provided. The yurt is truly a treat, coming stocked with camping stove supplies so we were able to cook some light meals. I also really enjoyed the wood-burning stove to keep warm. We also treated ourselves to some camel milk fudge and camel yarn. We stopped here for our trip to Great Sand Dunes, and Meghan recommended we stopped at Sand Dunes Recreation hot springs in Hooper nearby. It was just what we needed! Incredible place for a desert getaway.

Weekend Trip to Rabbit Hole Ranch

Jen’s campsite exceeded our expectations! It was true camping with ease! I’m glad we drove in our truck, as we literally off roaded to the spot we wanted. It could get a little tricky out there if we didn’t have a lifted vehicle, I presume. The views are incredible and every morning and evening we couldn’t believe that we were lucky enough to experience it! We walked around the flats, I’m guessing it was once a lake, but there is lots of room to roam. The night sky was absolutely incredible- I have never seen so many stars and milky way! It was primitive camping, so don’t expect the toilet to be close by- we didn’t care. It was very quiet out there- lots of coyotes in the distance, but we felt safe with Jen’s dogs on patrol! Bring lots of stakes as the wind was vicious at points. Short drive to sand dunes and zapata falls, both equal distance in either direction. We grabbed a spot with a fire ring- first come, first serve. Lots of space between sites. We didn’t see the host, so we didn’t feel like we were being micro managed or anything. A couple campers came and went, but everyone was very respectful of lights out/quiet time at 10p! The site was exceptionally clean. We would absolutely come back again.

2 nights at Rabbit Hole Ranch

We loved camping here! We arrived in the middle of the week and didn’t see anyone else out there, other than the two pups that guarded our campsite, until late Friday night. I was in a 2WD car and had no trouble getting there, despite a little bit of rain during our trip (don’t think it would’ve made it as far with a heavy storm though), and it was a quick drive to the national park. Only trouble we had was trying to set up camp at the first site we attempted, where it was really windy (fine for an RV but not great for an ultralight tent). We had no trouble at the second site though, that had a nice hill as a wind block. The sky was indescribable at night - 10/10 recommend!

Weekend Trip to Rabbit Hole Ranch

Such a cool place. Quite far from the sand dunes (maybe a 30-45 minute drive) but still worth it. You truly feel out in the middle of nowhere but there’s still a tiny bit of civilization near you and there’s service! The dogs are so sweet too. Thanks :)
