We had this beautiful campsite all to ourselves. Melanie was great to communicate with and had the wagon, chairs and firepit all set up for us. We were able to angle our camper to give us some shade and privacy from the nearby road. The stars were spectacular, great hiking trails nearby, beautiful views, convenient to Denver area.

Private, clean, relaxing

Tent · With pets

This was my second time camping on Melanie’s land and once again, it was fantastic! In this age of crowded Colorado camping, it’s so nice to know that I’m going to show up and have a private spot away from other campers to enjoy nature! The pond is so nice, home to turtles, fish and bull frogs serenading you at night! We were even lucky enough to see a bat feeding at dusk! The wagon is so helpful to haul your supplies to the other side of the pond and Melanie keeps the port-o-potty pristine! Thanks for another great stay!

Loved this little gem!

Group trip

This spot is such a little gem! It’s a lovely, shaded pond with beautiful views and several cozy hangout areas (benches around the campfire, rocking chairs and a table by one edge of the pond and bar chairs on another edge, a round table for 4, and a little kids picnic table!). Melanie was a wonderful host and made our stay so very enjoyable! We can’t wait to come back!
