Fishing, hiking, and wildlife watching draw campers to The Rusty Fox, a drive-in campground in Como, Colorado that sits near both a creek and a lake in open terrain. Rates run $25 to $50 per night. Access is rough, so low-clearance vehicles may have trouble reaching the site. Campers planning a broader Colorado high-country trip can browse campgrounds near Como for additional staging options in the area.
Description
Unplug, unwind, and breathe deep in the high country. Nestled at 9,200 feet in the heart of Colorado’s South Park Valley, The Rusty Fox offers 2.42 acres of flat, open land perfect for dry camping, RV boondocking, or tent escapes. With panoramic views of snow-capped peaks and star-filled skies, this secluded site is ideal for anyone seeking peace, privacy, and a break from the noise of everyday life.
The land sits in a quiet, off-grid neighborhood outside the historic railroad town of Como, surrounded by aspen groves, sagebrush, and big western sky. It's remote — no utilities, no crowds, just you and the wild — yet still accessible year-round via well-maintained gravel roads. Bring your camper, your solar setup, and your sense of adventure.
What You’ll Find Here:
