This little campground was originally developed in the 1970s but the Weber Ranchers.  It was built with small sites and big views in mind. We're giving this old campground a facelift little by little and adding unique lodging options for our guests. Hope you enjoy!

  • Conrad Q.

    Camped at BASECAMP 550 Gravel Campsites with friends, Jul 2020.

    Great views and very close to Ouray and Telluride, convenient location and the campsite news very well maintained. Extremely clean with lots of amenities.

  • It was okay

    We were surprised to find our ‘tent camping’ site to be on the gravel between RVs. There were not grassy camping sites, but the host allowed us to camp on a spot of grass that wasn’t actually a camp site. Despite the bit of surprise with the gravel campsite, once we relocated to the grass, we had a great view. The bathrooms and showers were spotless and Heather was extremely helpful. The only note to future tent campers, is the sites are gravel, but you might be able to snag a grassy location if you arrive early.

    Great place! Convenient to hiking spots in the area. The only problem was the tent sites were gravel, so there was no way to stake down the tents. When the winds and rains came, we had to hold everything down!
