Camping at EarthSky Site #4
We had a great time camping at Earth Sky. We were fortunate to have been the only campers there, which was nice. If you are looking for seclusion though, be mindful that the 4 sites here are very close together.

We had an absolute (albeit cold) weekend at Emily's land. The campsites are beautiful and Dustin and Emily coube more welcoming. We will definitely returning next year with slightly warmer nights. So much great stuff to do and explore around the campground and it's also a perfect place to just unwind and relax.

Great space right on the river. Beautiful view of the mountains. Four sites separated by fence barriers, would be great for groups!!

I had the best time at EarthSky! The location is stunning and off the beaten path. Hosts are friendly and responsive. Ask for hiking recommendations! :)
Some notes for fellow women solo campers: as others pointed out, the campsites are spaced out well, but all in full view of each other. The camp is off right off of a road, but it’s mostly local use—to find the camp you have to know it’s there, so no random people are just wandering in off the street. There’s a strong enough cell signal at the site for calls and text messages. Overall, I felt very safe and at peace!

Awesome piece of heaven in earth
Dear Emely and Dusty,
I wanted to take a moment to thank you both for providing such an amazing experience at Earth Sky! Our stay at your campsite was truly unforgettable. The entire site was incredibly clean and well-maintained, which made us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout our time there.
We also appreciated how friendly and respectful the other campers were during our 2 day stay. It was clear that you’ve cultivated an environment where everyone can enjoy nature peacefully and respectfully.
Thank you again for creating such a special space! We’ll definitely be returning in the future and will be recommending Earth Sky to our friends and family.
Warm regards,
Edgardo and Gigi Garcia

Great location, great hosts!
Loved camping here! The hosts were great. We needed firewood and bought some from them, and he even helped us start a fire since we forgot our lighter. Told us a little bit about the road and things to do in the area. At night, if the sky is clear (which was for us) you can see all the stars, it’s pretty incredible. Fog rolling in at night was also pretty cool. We would have stayed two nights, but we have a senior dog who wasn’t feeling great, so we had to leave. But we’ll definitely be back if we’re in the area.
