Secluded and natural

Loved staying here late summer! Watch out as you are basically camping alone besides the camp host who is usually gone morning to night. We enjoyed our little spot by the meadow and the abundance of trees made it feel so natural and peaceful. The road leading to the actual campground can be tricky and requires at least an all-wheel or 4WD car as it’s bumpy. Be mindful that there is no cell service until you reach Como so bring some playing cards! The drive over Boreas Pass is a MUST and spending a day in Breck was perfect. Hiking wasn’t really available but a short drive would lead you to nearby trailheads. Overall, great weekend trip!
