28mi from South Fork · 6 sites · Tents, RVs · Monte Vista, CO

We have 1.75 acres. The history of this property is interesting, varied and historical. During WWII the property was used as a detainment camp for German POW's. They were transferred here from Trinidad and Walsenburg CO to work with the farmers in the community, working potatoes. It was a happy, fruitful work situation and some of the farmers/POW's became good friends, even traveling to visit each other after the war. Parts of the building are still there. Serendipity. The land has served as an auto junk yard, repair shop, metal scrap yard, thrift store and more. As we have worked on the property we have found many treasures that are working their way to the surface. The location of the property we feel is perfect. You can get everywhere from here. We are in the city of Monte Vista limits, town is walking distance. It sits in the middle of what makes the valley thrive. Farming (Cows & hay) to the East. There is also a beautiful view of Mt Blanca and the Sange de Christo mountain range. When the sun sets you understand the beauty of the mountain and understand why is was named Blood of Christ. To the North is Coors - they gather the barley that is grown here in the valley to start the making of the beer. To the West is Mountain King - a potato storage unit. There is about 55,000 acres of potatoes grown with a wide variety of all different colors. With averages of 22 tons of potatoes per acre. - That's a lot of taters! The sunset over Mountain King is what you see in the pictures. Serendipity Camp is less than 1/2 mile from Monte Vista. Gas, groceries, coffee shops, restaurants, thrift & gift stores, and hardware. We have a volunteer run community movie theater that is open Friday - Sunday and for a short drive you can get to one of the few drive ins still operating. We do see/have wildlife that visits us regularly. A timid clan of Marmots (we call them whistle pigs). a fox appears occasionally, as well as many different birds (small birds, falcons, and Sand hill cranes in season) We have seen racoons in the area and sometimes a small herd of about 5 deer.

Weekend Trip to Dune Valley Distillery Campground

Nice rural spot with a smashing distillery right next door! They had a country band and dance on while we were there which was great fun. Doesn’t have all the amenities of a larger campground but would recommend for those looking for a quieter setting.

Lance is an exceptionally courteous and responsive host. His land is truly spectacular. It's a private paradise for people that want to get off the beaten path with a camper. The river is beautiful and this spot it is totally worth the price. It may not be everyone's cup of tea without the amenities of a campground/RV park, but if you don't want all that and are looking for quiet breathtaking views, with space for your fur babies to frolic through fields and swim in the river, this place is for you. I'm so grateful I was able to spend time here and will likely return next year!

This is a great spot and I highly recommend this to anyone and everyone. First… the communication was great with Lance who kept in contact and answered questions promptly. Second… the property is amazing. Just a few miles south of South Fork, Colorado on the Rio Grande River. Beautiful views, wildlife and tranquility. Third…easy access off the highway. There are three RV sites with hookups (H20/elec) but they are very close together. We opted for boondocking on the property further away and had a beautiful site in the woods. We were within walking distance to the river and small lake. Fourth…we were able to empty our tanks upon leaving in a very clean and easily assessable water/waste disposal site on the property. Fifth…we had our two dogs who were able to roam freely which is nice. Sixth… price $100/night which seemed a bit high but let me tell you it’s worth it. Lance has invested a ton of money into this project so I get it. Colorado is notorious for fees and taxes and I bet he has plenty of expenses to go with this site. Finally…you cannot go wrong here. There was a ranch hand lady who was on the property and very kind and helpful if needed. We had the place to ourselves, which was great. The RV sites would be a problem for me if others were camping at the same time l, but we always avoid RV parks for that reason and it may not be a problem for others. Please look at this site if your head g to South Fork. It gets a five star review from me!

Weekend Trip to Serendipity Base Camp

Such an interesting place to stay! It is peaceful and quiet but the scenic features are in the distance and masked by some piles of debris and metal junk in the area. It has historical significance as a WW II German POW camp. It would be so interesting if that could be developed. It would benefit from having a flush toilet available and access to water. The cost is quite reasonable and the owner is friendly and available. I so enjoyed talking with her. It has a locked gate at night and I felt very safe. It is close and convenient to everything in Monte Vista. I would stay there again.

Weekend Trip to Serendipity Base Camp

Basic safe place to stay for a night. Nothing fancy but it's exactly what I wanted. The wrong code was posted on the site. Had to try a few times first, then go get dinner and was told the new code pretty quickly. My dog doesn't like other dogs so the leashed dog policy is great, except when the caretaker comes over with his dog off leash. I just barely stopped an ugly dog fight (mine was on leash).

Weekend Trip to Serendipity Base Camp

We loved the Tardis Potty. It was surprisingly large and especially clean inside. We felt safe inside the locked gate. And the picnic table was a nice amenity. We were watching the Sandhill Crane migration at the Monte Vista National Wildlife Refuge. This is the cheapest camping within a 10 mile radius. Very convenient for us.
