Thyme Tent Site
Scott & Laurie’s property / campsite has so many amazing amenities. Stayed in the Thyme campsite and it was the perfect campsite, its diagonal from other campsites which I thought was great.
King Tipi at Sage View Ranch
We stayed at the Tipi which was comfortably appointed. Overall, it is a good place, but there's a few things future visitors may need to know:
1. You are fairly close to two roads and will be hearing traffic off and on throughout the night.
2. The trains leaving the nearby coal mine run all night and work their horns all night long, so expect to be awakened by that every few hours.
3. The outdoor "kitchen" is basically a grill plus grill utensils, a sink, and some table space. You need to bring your own pots, pans, etc.
4. The outhouses, at least during our stay, definitely needed some service, but they are what you should reasonably expect.
5. There is not a lot of shade at the camp sites, so for our Labor Day weekend weather, we couldn't really hang out at the camp site comfortably.
6. The Tipi's tarp around the poles flaps a lot in the wind, which basically means it was flapping all night long, rather noisily for those inside.
I'm a heavy sleeper, and I slept ok because I can handle being awoken multiple times a night, but my partner was up the entire time.
Honestly, it's a good place, but those are just things that we wish we knew beforehand. My partner and I ended up relocating to spend the rest of our weekend elsewhere so that she could sleep a little better. We're excellent car/tent campers, and the Tipi was chosen as a novelty, which we were glad to do.
We wish the owners very well and hope this review helps others.

Bus with a View at Sage View Ranch
Sage View Ranch is Magical
This was our second time staying in The Bus with a View and it did not disappoint! Such a fun and unique experience. Staying in the bus made it an easy camp night away since they have comfortable beds and all the linens you need making the packing list a lot smaller. Laurie and Scott are the best! We added on the goat milking experience and it was totally worth it! The whole milking process is fascinating and we got to get up close and personal with all the goats. Laurie and Scott clearly love the goats and take the best care of them! Don’t hesitate to book a night at sage view ranch! We will be back!

Thyme Tent Site
Thankful
We loved our stay at Laurie and Scott's place last time we stayed. We wanted to stay again but it didn't work out this weekend. They allowed us to cancel and get a refund. We will definitely be back another time!

King Tipi at Sage View Ranch
Great Hospitality
What amazing hosts!! Our Tipi ended up wet from a heavy rain and they graciously put us up in a cabin instead. Fun for the family and a great camping experience!
