As the Scenic Passenger Train is heard in the distance you'll look up towards Mount Blanca and imagine your next adventure living among the wildflowers of this High Desert Mountain Hipcamp. After recovering from a wildfire, the ancient sage brushes that had previously made the land harsh and unwelcoming are nearly gone, replaced with an abundance of grasses and wildflowers if blessed with rains. Open Land as far as you can go to the East you'll follow the Coyote canyon to high mountain lookouts. There are old logging maintenance roads you could take advantage of, so Hike, Bike or Motor around the local area. Fort Garland and Blanca have a community center (pool), septic dump and water fill and can provide groceries. The Great Sand dunes are about 45 minutes away. The Sand Dunes swimming pool, fed by a very hot artisan well is about an hour away. Mountain Home Lake is also within 1/2 an hour or so for fishing/water sports with a nice boat ramp. Escape from light pollution like never before, a clear night sky will make the whole trip worthwhile! Lots of wild life and you will most likely see some deer, hear the coyotes, and count the different colors of the humming birds. You can book a train ride out of Alamosa, and visit the local historic towns. The views will make it hard to leave the campsite, but there are tons of experiences and things to do in the area so make sure to do some research before you arrive. The weather and wind can be unpredictable in the mountains, so be prepared. There are two entrances onto the property, one at the bottom and one at the top. You can avoid some wind by camping near Lewis-Smith Rd at the lowest part of the land. Also, the site can accommodate large trailers/RV's but just make sure to plan your entrance/exit carefully and don't go to far down the hills. Just choose a wise spot to park if in a big rig. There are some small tires around that you can use to sit on or if you dig a hole that you fill in before leaving you can make a temporary toilet. Make sure to haul out all your trash and leave the site cleaner than it was when you arrived and respect the land. If you do come across a mess from the previous camper and clean it up, just let us know and we will give you a refund for the night. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

Great spot for a pit stop affordable but if you choose the site that is higher up the hill it is very windy.

Austin was the most incredible host and a truly fantastic human. I have never had such a cozy camping/glamping experience! The stars are gorgeous and the hot tub was a huge bonus. I am already planning to go back ASAP. Thank you so much!

Beautiful views! Easy to find (directions were spot on). We came for the weekend to get away from the city noise and it was the perfect peaceful spot. We saw wildlife, heard the coyotes and were in awe of the stars. We would absolutely recommend it.

Celebrated my 40th birthday with a night in this super glam and very unique stay. Austin was super communicative on directions and hosted us so generously upon arrival. I loved the mix of camp/wilderness/nature with the glam of the dome/lighting/art. Super fun one!

Really secluded, quiet spot with great view of the mountains. Really enjoyed our stay there. It's easy enough to access in our 32 foot rig but you do need to go pretty slow on the washboard gravel road leading up to the dirt road to the property. Just take it slow and you'll be fine.

Absolutely loved it!! About 40minutes from the dunes. Very quiet. Incredibly beautiful and private. Stunning views. It was a bit windy and no shade, but by evening, the wind calmed down. It was cool enough that we didn’t mind not having shade. Barry was incredibly quick at responding to our questions. Would stay here again.

We were the very first people to camp here, and booked the day before, so we really caught the hosts off guard. Getting there was many miles of dirt roads. With our minivan and teardrop camper, we did fine, though I wouldn't want to even attempt it after heavy rain. When the way in got confusing, the hosts came out to get us and lead us the rest of the way to our site. They were very responsive despite the spotty cell service. They even helped us push our camper into position for the best view, and oh, what a view! We were at site #1, which was recently cleared with a skidsteer and quite lumpy, but close enough to level for us, and a short walk away from a port-a-potty. (Not a good tent camping site until and unless it gets flattened and tamped down.) It overlooks a miles-wide valley with a 180 view of nearly uninhabited land. Absolutely beautiful- one of the prettiest places I've ever camped. Great sunsets. Great stargazing. Very quiet, though the host did run their generator for a bit right at bedtime. Our 6yr old was enamored with the outdoor kitties, and the hosts were very friendly. While there are some kinks to be worked out, I wouldn't hesitate to camp here again someday.
