Welcome to 5 Branches Camper Park, a peaceful, family-owned wilderness campground nestled along the tranquil shores of Vallecito Lake and the Pine River just 15 miles north of Bayfield and 23 miles Northeast of Durango. For over 30 years, this hidden gem has offered guests a chance to reconnect with nature, unwind, and enjoy the simple pleasures of the outdoors with family and friends. Owners Jan and Bob Davis purchased the property in 1995 with a vision of creating a place where families, friends, and nature-lovers could feel right at home—and that legacy continues to this day. 

Whether you're casting a line into the Pine River, paddling across the calm waters of Vallecito Lake, hiking or biking scenic trails, or simply relaxing by the fire with a good book, 5 Branches is your home base for adventure—or for doing absolutely nothing at all. With cozy cabins, comfortable cottages, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere, we invite you to slow down, breathe deep, and enjoy Colorado's Best Kept Secret.
