Welcome to Sunset Ridge — your basecamp for adventure, sunsets, and Colorado mountain magic! Tucked away on the ruggedly beautiful Western Slope, our rustic mountain campsite offers panoramic sunset views, crackling campfires*, and easy access to the wild outdoors.
Whether you're chasing adrenaline or soaking in the scenery, we've got you covered:
🛻 Four-wheel across scenic trails and roadways,
🥾 Hike to jaw-dropping overlooks on nearby popular trails,
🎣 Cast a line in peaceful fishing spots,
🎶 Enjoy live music, drinks and food under the stars at the local lodge.
...and that’s just the start.
We’re a scenic drive from two classic Western Slope mountain towns—both offering hot springs, local eateries, charming shops, and even a nostalgic drive-in theater for the perfect nightcap.
At Sunset Ridge, you can rise with the sun and the sound of birdsong, bugling elk, or grazing sheep, explore untamed Colorado by day, and unwind beside the fire* while the sky erupts in color followed by a nightlight of stars from above. Whether you're pitching a tent or pulling up in your rig, this is your place to unplug, unwind, and explore.
*Availability is based on local fire restrictions, which are often in place during peak summer months.

With Mt Garfield looming in close proximity and views to take in from every direction, Erman Zoo Hip-Camp is located on the farm property of the Erman family, which have been part of the Palisade community for 50 years. This family has adopted 22.....yes 22 children and fostered many more. The site has almost no light pollution and the stars are yours to stare at when they visit at night.
The site is in walking distance of all festivals, events, wineries, distillery, parks, fruit stands, the Colorado River, and downtown Palisade, so parking at events should prove no issue for occupants. Leave your vehicle and take a short walk to take in the scenery and air. Before you realize, you're at your preferred destination and now, more Palisade than you ever were.
The Erman property has farm animals that can be visited and feel free to introduce yourself to them. Gail Erman is the Erman matriarch and resides on the farm. Chad Erman is her adopted son, who resides on the property as well, and will be your camp host, as well as his 7 year old son. Come stay, relax, and if you find the time or want to, familiarize yourself with this family and the stories they may have waiting, as they have many.

Camping at Peachfork property was a magical experience! The grounds are gorgeous and the owners were so welcoming and wonderful! The wine was delicious as well. We were lucky to have been staying when a musician friend of theirs was passing through and were treated to a beautiful and intimate live concert. While wine tasting in Palisades, we would ask other vineyards where they recommend and Peachfork was always included! Shout out to Dave, Levi, and Phil. They were great. If your trailer is on the larger side, Levi was great with helping back it in. It is an active farm, so be prepared to hear tractors and the bird deterrent in the morning.

This was a lovely little spot conveniently located just up the street from downtown Palisade. Our hosts were so lovely and kind, the goats are adorable, having the wood ready at the campground was super convenient (and a great deal, they left alot of wood!), and we were even given delicious peaches on our way out! The site is a little loud right on the road but that's what you get when you're in the middle of town, and its nice to have a cute and affordable place to stay in Palisade!

This place has amazing views! There was even a rainbow over the mountains when we arrived. It's a little less remote than expected, but it still felt private enough. The road to the campsite is a bit steep, but we've been on way rougher roads. I would definitely stay here again.

The overlook was a beautiful spot we stayed for a night while traveling through Ouray. We stayed in a truck camper and had no problem backing down the switchback to the spot. I think it would be even easier in an SUV or van.
We liked that the spot was not totally visible from the road and offered privacy and felt safe and was pretty quiet. The views (especially at sunset) and the stargazing was amazing!
Michael was quick to respond and it was really easy to book last minute.

We loved our stay at Peachfork. The winery and property is gorgeous. The campsite was quiet with a nice relaxing atmosphere. Levi and the rest of the staff were so friendly and welcoming. I will definitely be coming back to stay again someday.

Just as pictured! As a woman traveling/camping solo, I’m careful about where I choose to camp. I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect but this spot felt very safe - hard to see from the roads coming up and a friendly but very respectful neighbor checked in to see if I needed anything. I know that can sometimes be alarming but he was truly so kind and did it in such a respectful way! I recommend getting here in daylight as the grade down would be tricky for me in the dark. My CRV did just fine. Otherwise, it’s very convenient to Ridgway and Ouray and was nice and quiet at night.

Beautiful views and Chad is very accommodating. He's working on getting some shade for the campsites but in the summer it can get pretty hot if you don't have your own shade canopy. It's about a mile walk to the beginning of town where there is a great pizza place and some fruit stands. About another mile into the heart of town for a lot of shops and stores. Very convenient location if you're doing things in Palisade or the outlying areas.

This spot was perfect for a place to crash after exploring the wineries in Palisade! Chad was easy to communicate with. The site is on the side of the road, but we didn’t have issues with it being noisy at night. Would definitely camp here again.

Such a beautiful and well-kept vineyard. Wish we could have spent more time here. Definitely would recommend staying the night. I brought my parents and my fiance we slept in tents under the trees. We used the hot shower and drank some of their juice from the apples from the orchard. It was a bit pricey but that was because I'm assuming memorial weekend. I would recommend bringing a bicycle and biking to other vineyards. Thank you Levi for hosting us and answering all of our questions.
