Crab Creek at Rocky Ford

I had such a peaceful stay at Crab Creek at Rocky Ford Campground. This is dispersed camping at its best: flat, open land with plenty of space to spread out and breathe. The picnic tables were a nice touch, making it easy to settle in comfortably for the evening.

The area may have some trails to explore (I saw gates but did not explore further), and there are stock barrels with water available for horses, which gives it that authentic, open-range feel. The sunrises and sunsets here are absolutely beautiful, wide open skies that light up with color in every direction.

I had the whole place to myself, which made it feel even more special. There is some highway noise during the day, but at night it’s really quiet since there’s hardly any traffic. It turned out to be such a comfortable, restful spot for a night. I’d definitely stay here again.

The space was flat, wide open, nobody was there, the only odd thing was the deer pelt randomly laying on the ground.

Primitive campsite with loads of space. Stopped for a night here. Good spot.

Please update this review! When looking at other apps it mentions this has become a homeless camp… target shooting and flies. We did not go but I’m posting this so you’ll do your own research.
