Beautiful mountain views, trails and only 10 minutes to downtown Durango! 35 acre gated community property with miles of private trails to explore. Friendly pets welcome. Complementary firewood fire restrictions permitting. Owners live on property and are available to help or answer questions. Great setup and location.Get settled and enjoy miles of trails starting from your RV site, stay in the woods and enjoy the relaxing evening and beautiful views or head into downtown Durango only 10 minutes away., about 5 miles to main street downtown. This 35 acre lot is joined by another 70 acres that all has trails winding throughout to be explored, there are also other nearby trails that will take you far into national forest and blm land. The spot is 20’x40’ so there is plenty of room on the road base pad to hang out. I wouldn’t recommend a full size RV up here just because it would be hard to get in and out.

Bear springs

We stayed at Michael’s for 3 nights and it was fabulous. Easy to get to Durango and local hikes and the camp spot was very peaceful with hikes right on your doorstep, so if you wanted to chill at camp for the day, it was the perfect location. The views were fabulous as were the stars at night.

Bear springs

We enjoyed our 2 night stay at Bear Springs. The location was great for exploring Durango and nearby trails. Michael was a great host and the property had us feeling like we were on our own land. It was beautiful, spacious, and much more private than a campground. We pulled our 23 foot, 5500 pound camper with a ram 1500 and had no issues. While camping pad is near the house, we still felt as though we had our own private site. We will be back if we are in the area and whole heartedly recommend Bear Springs!

Nice place

Nice view. Nice firepit. Friendly people. House is fairly close to the site…but that wasn’t a big deal imo…

Awesome site and host!

You won’t find a better spot or a nicer host! We loved Bear Springs. You can hike right from the campsite, and the views are unbeatable. It’s super quiet out there even though you’re not too far from the heart of Durango. In addition, Mike was truly awesome. Our van had a hard time pulling our camper up the dirt road to the site, and Mike came and hitched the camper to his truck, pulling it up and backing it into the site. And he hooked it up on our way out, too, just to make sure we didn’t have any more trouble. He went above and beyond—super nice guy. Don’t think twice about booking this place. You won’t regret it! Our favorite hipcamp to date.

Nice Place to Set Up !

This is a really great spot for a center of operations for recreational and other activities in Durango. It’s about 10 miles from Downtown, but the spot is peaceful and remote. It’s a single site, which is situated below the host’s home, and about 75 yds or so from the house, on a large tract of wooded property. We did a little hiking around the trails which are accessible from the site, and feels very remote. Good star gazing on Monday night. The hosts are extremely accommodating, but not at all invasive. No RV Park neighbors! No noise (other than maybe my family), firewood is supplied. Nice, flat pad with plenty of room to set up tables and chairs just outside of the camper. The weather was perfect, nights were really cool - low 50s, maybe high 40’s - with no need to run the RV AC, which is too loud anyway. Michael was really easy to work with in that we tried twice to come up in the early spring, but weather put a damper on both trips, and we had no problem canceling the reservations. This time we made it ! We will definitely look at returning to this site in the near future.

Great time!

We had an awesome time at Bear Springs. Mike was a great host. Very knowledgeable about the area and willing to help. While the spot is close to his (very beautiful) home, once set up our view was to his many acres of forest and felt secluded. Great views, close to everything and a bit cooler up there! Would definitely recommend.
