You can hear Alder Creek flowing through the canyon from the comfort of your campsite. Many nearby options for bicycling, hiking, kayaking and skiing in the area. Once you pull out the driveway you are a few minutes from Last Dollar Ranch Road (hike, bike, or 4x4) and about a 25 minute drive to Telluride, 30 minutes to Ridgway, and 30 minutes to Norwood. Just outside of Ridgway is Orvis Hot Springs, and more hot springs can be found in Ouray. The property offers access to Alder Creek and our beaver ponds down in the canyon. The fields are blanketed with Iris and clematis flowers in May and June and other wild flowers throughout the summer including pentstemon, larkspur, and wild roses. There are patches of scrub oak and fields with cinquefoil bushes in the camping areas, and as you go down in the canyon there’s aspen groves, blue spruce, and ponderosa pines.

The scenery was beautiful and the host was very communicative. But, these sites are not meant for 20' campers. Very tight lots of half buried pointy rocks and if the weather isn't perfect the road in and out is sketchy at best. It would be fine for tear drop, pop up or even tent camping however.

This campsite was an absolute slice of heaven and, without a doubt, the most magical Hipcamp site where we have ever stayed. Tucked away high in the mountains, the site is perfectly situated adjacent a serene aspen grove with a picnic table where we ate our meals. The air is crisp and clean, and the sound of the quaking leaves rustling in the breeze created a peaceful soundtrack. Staying at The Aspens was about half the price of the local RV parks, but it had all the ammenities as advertised, and we topped off power and water during our stay. This spot is the perfect escape for anyone looking to disconnect from the chaos of everyday life and reconnect with nature. I can't recommend this campsite enough. We're already planning my return trip!

I was in CO for a festival in Telluride and this spot was the perfect antidote to the busyness of town. It was heaven to wake up every morning and look out at the view and see deer and butterflies. When I arrived Mary gifted me duck eggs and they were delicious fried up for breakfast! She was a great host and easy to communicate with. I felt safe camping alone as a woman. The roads in, especially the last little bit, are steep and rough. I was grateful for my truck. I would definitely camp here again if I’m ever in the area.
