Located along the beautiful Animas River just minutes from Durango, Colorado you will find River Rim Lavender Farm. Glamping in an Airstream in the Lavender Field with optional farm experiences are available. Enjoy spending time with the farm animals, lavender and herbs or at the river while here. It’s a short but beautiful drive to town. Find peace in the countryside just 15 minutes to the edge of town and 30 minutes to downtown. Your glamping stay is in a 2003 Airstream Safari with solar power, deluxe bedding, full kitchen (oven/microwave, refrigerator/freezer), sound system, heat & a/c. Bathroom is not hooked up, but Bob’s Johns porta potty and a heated outdoor shower are nearby. In front of your entrance are chairs and a fire table, perfect for evening relaxation. This lavender farm is a working farm. Farmstay experiences available and will be tailored to you. There may be volunteers, pulling weeds, putting up fencing, planting, etc during your stay, but rest assured they will not disturb you or make loud noises during quiet times. The goats will likely make more noise than anything else. Izzy will be the loudest. She’s a young Nigerian Dwarf. When I brought her home at 2 weeks old, she went to work with me. I carried her in a baby sling. I didn’t spoil her at all! Hiking down the trail to the river it’s easy to get distracted by the beauty. It’s like another world. I like to watch the hillside as we pass through time going up/down the trail. At the bottom of the trail we an 150+ year old apple tree. And looking across the valley, you can see where the train used to run. Ask Melissa to tell you about the story of apples in this region. Certain times of the year you could pick lavender, cook or make crafts with it, learn about milking goats, making cheese, make salves or lip balm, crafts and more. We love the bees! We do not use chemicals in the field and we don’t have a store on site so you should bring sunscreen, bug repellent and anything else you might need. Of course, should a need arise that we can help with, we are more than happy to do so. It is common to see wildlife, especially near the river. Please remember to watch for wildlife and share the land. We have deer, wild turkeys, mountain lions, bobcats, bears, elk, and many, many birds. Blue herons nest in the trees in the bosque. If you like the night sky, you’ll love the views on a clear night. It can be nothing short of spectacular!A comfortable Airstream in a lavender field with partial view of the mountains and short walk down to the river.
