Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Our setting is cooler and greener than much of the surrounding area. If you still haven’t “gotten over the color green” (there’s a book by that title!), this is the place for you. Or, even if you do thrill in a red rock setting, a little green will refresh you in the evening and morning. A small stream nearby, with a four-foot waterfall, graces our camp with the sound of running water. Cottonwoods and historic fruit trees shade parts of each site, while dragonflies and birds often dart about among the rabbitbrush and sagebrush. Each site can accommodate one vehicle, van, small RV, or truck-bed camper up to 18 feet in length. Just north of Cortez, we are ideally located in the heart of the northern Four Corners region—only 15 minutes to Mesa Verde National Park, 20 minutes to Canyons of the Ancients, 10 minutes to Phil’s World, and 30 minutes to the mountains for hiking, biking, or fishing. Cortez markets and restaurants are just 10 minutes away. Durango is an hour away, Telluride is 1½ hours, and Moab is 2 hours. We are naturalists, so if you have questions about birds, dragonflies, butterflies, or fireflies (yes, fireflies!), such as the best places to see them besides your campsite, just ask us! We also worked in the field of archaeology and can help you choose sites to visit—like Mesa Verde National Park or Canyons of the Ancients. We encourage you to connect with the natural world as well as the ancient cultures of this region. Four Corners' Dragonfly Camp exists on the ancestral lands of the Puebloan and Ute peoples. This is a dry site—please bring your own water and toilet. Showers are available at the Cortez Recreation Center, just 10 minutes away. Please pack out what you pack in, including human waste, for now. Plans for a composting toilet are in the works for next spring!

Cottonwood Dream

Vehicle site · Sleeps 8 · Vehicles under 18 ft
Tucked under a couple of shady cottonwood trees, Cottonwood Dream has plenty of space to stretch out in. The fragrance of sagebrush occasionally wafts through the site, reminding you that you are actually on the Colorado Plateau and near the Four Corners. Nearby, historic fruit trees speak to the early European history in this area. A small waterfall not far away graces this site with the sound of running water while The Milky Way twinkles across the dark night sky. A tent site is provided if you have a vehicle/portable toilet. It is big enough for 2 tents: 8 X 24 ft total. (room to stake beyond these dimensions).
