7 sites · RVs, Tents2 acres · Valmont, COWelcome to our charming 2-acre farm nestled in East Boulder with a view of Long’s Peak. Just minutes from town - near walking trails, a bike park, shopping, and restaurants. A great pitstop on your way to or from the mountains.
We have a 4 meter Glamping tent complete with a queen sized bed and rocking chairs, as well as spots in the meadow for RVs and camping tents.
We limit the meadow to 5 small groups so there always remains plenty of open space for everyone. Our goal is to offer you a peaceful and affordable place to rest. The most affordable in all of Boulder!
We have a community fire ring, big stacks of free burn wood and kitchen tables.
We have well water to offer up by the house, but I wouldn’t drink it without purification… makes for a great cold outdoor shower.
We have a HoneyBucket (toilet) tucked away in the bushes. It is pumped weekly and cleaned daily.
We have fresh eggs! The chickens free range during the day, so please keep an eye on your dogs… leash if necessary. Our gals won’t run away.
THE GOOD:
*Easy in and out location
*Most affordable rates in all of Boulder.
*Beautiful view of the Longs Peak.
*Lots of sun
*Summertime creek on the property.
*Fresh eggs!!!
*Tintypes!
*Community campfire with free firewood
THE BAD:
*Daytime road noise (pretend ocean waves??).
*Limited shade.
*Total RV length 40 feet - Truck AND Trailer - due to a steep and winding entrance and exit.
*Good Morning Rooster
We can handle RVs around 40 feet in TOTAL LENGTH - truck and trailer. It’s a big field, but a narrow, winding and steep ramp to get in and out. If you are a nervous driver, perhaps choose another place to rest your head. If you are a confident driver with towing experience, you can probably even go bigger.
No designated spots. Please feel free to park anywhere you’d like while leaving enough room for other campers. It is flattest along the fence by the pond - leveling boards are stacked up in the field to borrow. Please note there is no access to the pond itself. It’s our neighbor’s property.
We've got Tintype Portraits! I am a Wet Plate Photographer specializing in 1800’s antique metal portraits made of silver. Half off a one night stay is included in the price of every portrait. Check out: TheTintypeCompany.com if you get the chance.
We are indeed the cheapest Hipcamp in Boulder, and our goal is to remain as affordable as we possible can. Alternatively, there is a $22 place up near Loveland, a $36 farm in Longmont, and a van-only spot in Evergreen for $33…
The local homeless shelter is also an option if you are car camping. No joke, it is wonderful. More like an hostel than a homeless shelter. And they have facilities!! Folks do it all the time if the shelter has the space that night. Showers, WiFi, even food. Their contact info is:

If you are in a van and just looking for a place to park for a night, 33rd north of Arapahoe is your best bet. It’s right next to the Police station, so fairly safe. The streets aren’t level, but neither is our field! Great for vans, not so great for larger RVs or trailers.
All that said, we would love to be your host. Our place is clean, safe, and quiet at night. It’s super convenient to town.
Please reach out with any questions you may have. I’ll do my level best to help in any way I can.
Safe travels!
Sincerely,
Patrick
