About This Location

Experience remote mountain serenity at the Off Cow Camp Cabin, a rustic USFS retreat located in a high-elevation meadow near Burro Creek.

Nestled in a high-elevation meadow at 10,500 feet, the Off Cow Camp Cabin offers a truly unique backcountry escape within the Rocky Mountains. This rustic retreat is situated near Burro Creek and provides a rare opportunity to disconnect in a tranquil, alpine setting. Please note that the cabin is accessible only by non-motorized travel or vehicles under 50 inches in width, as standard passenger vehicles cannot reach this remote site.

The site features a renovated cabin and barn, alongside a vault toilet for basic convenience. Visitors can enjoy the surrounding wilderness by utilizing the nearby hiking and biking trails or taking advantage of the local fishing access. Campers are encouraged to bring their own firewood to enjoy the outdoor fire rings under the vast mountain sky.

This destination is best suited for experienced adventurers, hikers, and those seeking a rugged backcountry experience rather than traditional RV camping. Because the cabin is located in a remote mountain environment, it is perfect for individuals or small groups looking to immerse themselves in nature while enjoying the charm of a historic, renovated forest service structure.
