Tongue Creek Ranch is beautifully situated at the base of the Adobe Buttes on the southern side of the Grand Mesa in Austin, Colorado. The 70-acre ranch has over 40 acres in hay and alfalfa with seasonal cattle grazing in the fall and winter months.
Whether you come to stay at one of the rental properties, get married or host a special event, we welcome you to enjoy the beautiful setting of Tongue Creek Ranch and the incredible sites of the Western Slope!
David and Barb Cocetti purchased the ranch in June 2019 to embark on a new life where they could cultivate the land and be more self-sustaining. By following Biblical guidelines for work and agriculture, this land has come to life! It is proving to be an oasis where people find peace while enjoying the serenity of the surroundings.
The clamping Cabin sits behind the horse arena and in front of Tongue Creek. It's the cutest little cabin and we mean little, more like an expertly finished big shed. It is 10x14 with a 3x14 covered porch but finished inside like a 5 star hotel. AC, TV, Wifi, fireplace, comfortable queen size bed. Beetle kill tongue and groove ceiling, cultured barn wood wanes coating. It's super nice.
The ranch itself may be the reason for the "glamp" booking. The yard is manicured and the 25 house, goats and chickens are fun to see. The big plus is we are only 20 minutes away from the Grand Mesa outdoorsman mecca. This is probably the cheapest base camp to the Mesa.
The ranch is a great base camp to wineries, Moab, Telluride, Black Canyon of the Gunnison, fishing, boating, hiking, trails and hundreds of open BLM land for Razor riding. Check us out.

That’s it! Tent camping is doable depending on the season. We have an enclosed fire pit that we allow during certain times of the season upon request. If we feel the surrounding area is too dry or high risk for fire/ fire bans we do not allow camp fires. Please request prior to showing up or you may find out there’s a fire ban for the area. The gate entrance to the field is roughly 15ft wide. It is located off a two way street.
There are no street lights on our street. So arriving after dark can make it difficult for a lone camper to back into the field.
We’re happy to accommodate respectful guests and easygoing travelers who just need a safe, pleasant spot to stay.
Please note: if you’re looking to bring drama or be difficult, this probably isn’t the place for you. We like to keep things stress-free for everyone. We would prefer you to stay elsewhere if you’re wanting anything more than what is in the description.

A Unique Setting (Please Read)
This is not a traditional campground—it’s a private, adult-oriented property (18+) that also operates as the home of The Gondola Shop, a specialized gondola restoration business.
Weekdays (Mon–Fri): You may notice light activity, occasional noise, and staff moving through parts of the property.
Safety & atmosphere: For this reason, the property is best suited for responsible adults seeking a quieter, more independent camping experience.
No children allowed due to the working environment and equipment on site.
Speed limit: 10 mph throughout the property.
Groups & Gatherings
We’re open to small groups (RVs, vans, roof tents, etc.) as long as you are self-contained.
From May through October, when the lake is full, the property becomes an ideal setting for relaxed gatherings, BBQs, and enjoying the outdoors in a private setting.
If you’re looking for a quiet, unique place with space, views, and unbeatable access to Fruita’s outdoor scene—this is a great fit. If you’re looking for a traditional, kid-friendly campground, this likely isn’t it.

Great shady place to be! Cool way you can see farmland. Great ideas for the games and activities provided! You can hear the roosters from the next farm. Something that we enjoyed. Will come for future visits!

I loved camping here! The hosts were friendly and welcoming! The campsite was beautiful, clean, and peaceful. The directions were clear. And they have a great view of the night sky for any star gazers like me. 10/10 recommend.

2 nights at Grand Mesa Getaways LLC
Stayed several nights in the small trailer. Paula and her mother were wonderful hosts, checking in with us several times during our visit and making sure we didn't need anything. She went out of her way to show us around and help us get settled when we got in at almost 9pm at night. While the trailer is a little small, it still managed to pack a lot in the tiny space including a bathroom with a shower, a kitchenette, a bed, and a table/bed combo. Plus lots of storage! Paula also provided plenty of amenities, such as coffee, breakfast bars, and practically any toiletry you might have forgotten, and the wifi was more than sufficient for browsing and even watching videos. As for the property itself, it was beautiful. It's about a mile down a small county road with very few neighbors, so very peaceful and relaxing. The trailer is right above the stream, so it was an easy walk down to sit on the provided tables or chairs near it and I spent several hours down there reading and just enjoying the atmosphere. Still, it's not even close to as remote as it felt like it should - we were only a few miles out of Cederedge and less than 30 minutes from Delta, so it was easy to go into town for activities or food. If I'm in the area again, I'm certainly going to see if I can stay here again

Lovely simple spot! Easy to find with easy car access (Tesla model Y)! There are a few homes around but they’re far enough away to still have privacy.

Mike was a gracious host and the site was beautiful! Our family had a great time playing in the lake and loved the peace and quiet. Mike keeps the sites very clean and we loved how the sites were generously spaced out. He also gave us great suggestions on what to see and do in Palisade! Thank you Mike for a wonderful stay, we will be back!

Group trip
The views were beautiful, and the site is close to town. We were able to walk to Bookcliff vineyards, which is a mile away. Heads up: there are scorpions at the campsite, but they are about 2 inches long, and only came out at night.

This was a great place to camp. The owners make it very easy and it is dog friendly. The only draw back was a sulphur (?) pond next to the property. Not the most pleasant smell. I noticed it in the night with the shifting of the wind. We would stay again, though. There are not many good choices. that we found and this was close to Palisade and pretty nice.

This spot felt very private in the back part of the resort with trees on either side which we liked a lot. Back in site with outdoor living area facing a fence. Dog friendly and lots of grassy areas near by (no direct grass access from this site as stated), as well as a nice walking path along the river. There was poor air quality warnings while we were there so I wish I could speak to the recreational activities they had rentals for but maybe next time. This spot is near quite a few long term renters so was very quiet, if you’re looking to connect with other vacationers I’d opt for a river adjacent spot.

Highly recommend!
Easy to locate, greater by the host and was offered a place to pitch my tent that had some better shade. While I didn't use a Yurt I was given an opportunity to go inside one. They are great as well.
All the animals had their place and we had ours.
Nice shower/bathroom in and air conditioned building. Tent camping was $20.00 plus tax, with a bath house.....

Plans changed and I did not get to stay there but they were wonderful even before I got there letting me know where to go look at the space all prepared for me and I feel bad that my plants changed but it was totally worth the money paying for it and not showing because they seem like really cool people
