Little Scraggy Camp is located on 95 acres of an historic 160-acre ranch that was homesteaded by our family in the 1890’s, and is on the National Register of Historic Places. This totally off-grid ranch is surrounded by Pike National Forest, yet has easy access from a paved road. We offer several accommodations and glamping sites, as well as sites for moderate sized RVs, travel trailers, truck campers, vans, tents, and hammocks. Additionally, we have sites for small groups (up to 14 people) and large groups (35-200 people). NEW FOR 2024: All campers can take advantage of our Hipcamper golf discounts at Little Scraggy Disc Golf Course. Across the road from Camp is our newly constructed 18 hole course with PDGA regulation baskets, a pro shop with LSDG discs available for purchase and loaner discs available for those wanting to try out disc golf. Potable drinking water is available from onsite 270-gallon water tanks. Portable toilets are only a short walk away from sites. Friendly dogs are welcome to enjoy YOUR campsite off leash, but please clean up after your dog. If your pet has any aggressive tendencies, it must be leashed. The camp has a 4 basket disc golf putting course with loaner discs provided. We also have a cornhole toss game at both the glamping/rv camp area and tent/rv area. We are an ideal basecamp for the casual or dedicated trail enthusiast. The ranch itself has several trails and easy trail loops to explore within and just outside of the ranch’s fence lines, with direct access to the 9.5-mile Little Scraggy Trail and Segment #3 of the Colorado Trail. Just 3.5 miles away is the Little Scraggy Trailhead, where you will find easy access for biking, hiking, or horseback riding on the many other trails of the Buffalo Creek area. Additionally, we have an extensive network of hiking and horse trails that avoid conflicts with mountain bikers. You might prefer rock climbing Little Scraggy or fishing the gold-medal waters of the South Platte River canyon below Cheesman Dam and the waters near Deckers. For a day trip, Wellington Lake is only 30 minutes away for no-wake water sports. Many people enjoy kayaking on the North Fork of the South Platte downstream from nearby Buffalo Creek. This is a working ranch where we raise and train horses and ponies. Our particular interest is in carriage driving, and we offer driving experiences upon request. Our site called Mountain Horse Camp, provides 3 individual porta-panel horse corrals. There is limited cell service.

Cavalry Camp

We had a great time. Campsites were well spaced and it was a beautiful place to spend the weekend.

Pony Roundup

Denver Bob

There are plenty of reviews that describe the site, so all I’m gonna say is it worked well for me as I was in a 20 foot sprinter van boondocking. I needed to use levelers on one side of the van, which was not a big deal. I recommend the spot.

Colonel's Tent

The tent was spacious and nicer than a traditional tent. I wouldn't consider it "glamping" but would definitely stay again. The host was super helpful, and drove out to lend us some duct tape on our first night!

Scraggy Gate

Great for easy camping!

We loved tent camping at Scraggy Gate! It is a perfect spot for non-intense campers (like myself) who want to be outdoors but not feel overly secluded. The site was clean and we enjoyed using the fire pit for hot dogs and s'mores. I would recommend bringing some firewood - there was a little at the site and you can scavenge for more, but the dead wood/branches burn pretty quick. Overall, a great spot for a quick camping trip away from Denver!

Great place to camp & hike

Great place to tent camp with my furry buddies. Close to Little Scraggy trail for an awesome hiking experience. Clean, stocked bathroom & water available. Beautiful views!
