About

We are open for Summer 2023! Camp and adventure in the Gunnison-Crested Butte valley at Campfire Ranch. We're stoked, you're here. We feature walk-in tent campsites, convenient amenities, demo camping equipment and an Adventure Concierge service!

Located alongside the famed Taylor River in Gunnison County, CO is the home of our first campground, Campfire Ranch on the Taylor. Our location is outstanding, positioned on County Road 742, down the road from the newly paved Cottonwood Pass, which is just 18 minutes to Crested Butte and 18 minutes to Gunnison. Taylor Canyon is home to some of the most iconic views in the Central Rockies, abundant recreational pursuits and outstanding access to nearby communities. We can’t wait to have you camp with us!

Get ready to camp in rustic comfort at Campfire Ranch on the Taylor. All of our campsites are walk-in and tent-only, which means no RV’s allowed. This saves you from sleeping beside noisy generators, idling vehicles and slamming car doors each night. Each campsite is just a short walk from your vehicle, water and bathroom, a backcountry feel without the hassle.

Great site but limited privacy

This is a tent only site but it was great.  There is a host on-site who is very helpful.  The restrooms are very clean.  The tent sites are great and there is unlimited firewood.  We went into Crested Butte to eat one night and we drove over to the Black Canyon of the Gunnison as well.  Both were suggestions from our host.  We also went boating on Taylor lake.

Perhaps the best campground

I hate to spoil this place with a great review, knowing it will make it more difficult to book here in the future. However, this may be the most thoughtful, scenic, and clean campground I’ve ever visited. With fresh, cold and clean mountain water for drinking!

Amazing location and sites

Great time for a first time camper or an experienced camper. Host will help you with any gear you need, give directions to any activities you want to do, and there’s no RVs. Climbing routes all around and Doctor Park is right there! Can’t beat it!
