Site 4 - Cumberland High Alpine Campsites!

The view left us absolutely speechless. All of the sites were well maintained and spread out enough to allow for privacy. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend Anthony’s property to others without hesitation.

Site 2 - Cumberland High Alpine Campsites!

Camping here is truly an experience. Getting up Cumberland Pass needs to be taken with a lot of patience. Can you get up there with a normal car? Probably. Should you? Depends how confident you are in off roading. I got up fine in an all stock 2020 Kia Sportage AWD with all season tires. But it took a while to make sure I didn’t blow my tires or bottom out. Now for the site: If you want views, especially a starry night sky, I’m not sure you can do better than this. It was truly an amazing experience being able to see the Milky Way with my naked eye. For the mixed feelings, the listing is incorrect in listing a toilet. I messaged Anthony before booking asking about it so I was prepared. But keep that in mind. All the sites are also incredibly rocky and some not so level. If you’re car camping you’ll be fine with the rocks. Tent camping might be hard to find a smooth spot, or make one yourself. Site 2 was incredibly hard to get our cars level. I was able to make do okay being slanted but also keep that in mind. I love this location and plan to be back sometime this summer. The cost to stay is pretty expensive for a primitive camp site. Being able to camp with these views is an experience. I would do it again and would recommend anyone to camp here at least once, but some might be put off by the high cost for a location with 0 amenities.

Site 2 - Cumberland High Alpine Campsites!

Really awesome spot, especially for the views but it is very windy, at least before dark. I would recommend site 3 or 2 to hide from the wind. Easy to get to, the road is just a little rough but you could make it in a camry.

Amazing views, solitude, awesome spot. This was my second stay here and loved it. Great spot to check out the stars. The road is a little bumpy/rocky, but went slow without issues.

Site 5 - Cumberland High Alpine Campsites!

Definitely a bit of a trip to get up here, but once you do, you really feel like you're out of the way. Stars were gorgeous and I cowboy camped just for that!
