This campground is closed for the season from November 16, 2024 through March 31, 2025.
Fourth Sister Farm is located near the San Juan Mountains in Colorado, offering a landscape of rolling hills and open fields. The area experiences temperatures ranging from 20°F in winter to 85°F in summer. Nearby, visitors can explore the scenic beauty of the San Juan National Forest and the historic town of Durango.
Description
These campsites are tucked up to the edge of a pinyon juniper forest overlooking the La Plata Mountains, and farmlands stretching to Durango. Terrific sunsets, wildlife, and privacy await. The original barn is still standing in the camp area. The Ignacio grocery store is a short 8-minute drive and Durango is 25 minutes away. Fishing, hiking, mountain biking, and shopping are all available in under 30 minutes.
Tent pads are leveled and include tie-down bolts. A porta-potti and hand wash station are nearby, and a recycling bin is available (no trash service). Make dinner easily on the 3-burner gas grill with a side stovetop burner and grilling utensils. 10 gallons of water are in the parking area for drinking/dishes and a hose is available at the house on request. Camper vans and pop ups are welcome! No RVs, please, due to a culvert crossing. The drive up to the camp sites is a bumpy field, but a compact SUV or higher is sufficient.
This is a working farm with a hay field below the campsites, a large fenced market garden, an orchard, and chickens (leashes dogs only, please!!). The irrigation ditch runs through the camp area, providing ambient sounds and fun for pups! Again, leashed dogs only to protect my chickens and the resident raccoons, skunks, foxes, coyotes, and deer.
I’m open to longer-term camping options also, including discounted rates.

Directions
