Site 1 - South Pasture

Incredibly special place. I could have spent two weeks here easily. Kevin's spot was an unexpected highlight of our one month trip across Colorado. Epic stargazing at night. Note: I'd arrive a during daylight if you're not used to driving dirt roads after dark. Google maps led us a bit astray.

Host of the year

Ok so we aren’t the type of campers that need a host- literally we could get to a place and not see a single person and be completely fine. BUT we did have an exceptionally great experience with Kevin- he should get the host of the year award! He responded well to our questions about the area and while we were there he brought us water for our showers and campfire wood. The land is captivating- peaceful and beautiful!

Site 2 - South Pasture

Beautiful, private and remote.

Beautiful property and beautiful ride to the campsite. Very remote and peaceful. Since it's so remote with out cell service I would recommend downloading the directions and screen shooting the written instructions from the host before hand because you will not be able to access them about 20 to 30 outside the camp and inside the camp. But well worth the drive in the Gunnison national Forest.

Great spot!

The sites have a good amount of spacing so you didn’t feel like you were on top of your camp neighbors. Kevin was incredibly helpful and generous with his time. Would recommend this spot, easy to enjoy the hikes and water nearby or drive only about an hour to bigger towns.

Loved Site 2

We stayed at campsite 2- it was a great location tucked back. You could see site 1 from there but you could not hear anyone so it was just far enough away. There were trees and bushes nearby but did not provide much shade so would definitely recommend bringing a canopy for shade. The views were beautiful, stars were stunning, and it backed up to Gunnison National Forest and was a mile walk to the reservoir which was fun for our dog. Would definitely stay here again!
