North Fork Tipi Haven SUN

Great campsite and the nearby town was adorable too!

The host, Karen, was so communicative and helpful before my visit. Unfortunately we had to leave earlier than expected, but the tipis and the location are absolutely beautiful. Hotchkiss is also a very cool little town, and only about a 5-10 minute drive away. Overall an awesome property in a really gorgeous area. Looking forward to coming back.

We had a fantastic time camping in the tipis and would definitely come back. Karen & Tony are friendly and welcoming hosts. The community kitchen is well stocked with cooking supplies, the tipis are clean, and the property is great for exploration.

This is a lovely opportunity to spend the night in one of the most scenic places in the lower US. The teepee's are lovely and the hosts are pleasant. I highly recommend

This is a stunning spot overlooking the North Gunnison River. Karen and Tony's four tipis face the rising sun to the east while a small creek behind them provides an intimate escape from the sun and heat. Whether you're relaxing with your morning coffee watching the sunrise behind Landsend Peak and Saddle Mountain or grilling dinner by the stream in the little kitchen area peaceful thoughts and peace of mind come easy here.

Tony and Karen are friendly and helpful without being overbearing as some hosts tend to be. They help out with friendly suggestions on which wineries to see and what's the best place to view the Black Canyon of the Gunnison from.

I stayed in the Sun Tipi and in the morning the interior of the tipi had more in common with stained glass than it did a tent. The painted sides came alive with the sun. Then when you step outside and get to experience the entire valley before you springing with green and life as vibrant as the colors on the side of the tipi.

This place is AMAZING. We ended up not making it in until late at night, but were greeted with a lit path to our beautiful tipi and a lantern on the porch (which was perfect for stargazing). It rained overnight, but the tipi was completely waterproof! The inside was pristine and there were even little candles that you could light - I wish we had brought matches! I loved that our site was right next to the well-maintained compostable toilet too. In the morning, the view was incredible!! We had the best day + I wish we had been able to spend more time making a fire or doing yoga on our tipi deck. We will be back for sure!

We arrived to Tony tending to his cute garden and warm greetings, then showing us around and giving a tour of the tipis/grounds shortly thereafter. The tipis themselves are well made and surprisingly spacious and a bed is supplied so don’t forget to bring sheets and pillow. We know there is a bathroom but didn’t realize it’s a compost toilet so that was quite a first experience - and there’s a mini instruction on the door that’ll guide you. Such a unique experience in a private space and well made tipis and you may also expect some guest animals around your tipi at night. We may have had an elk loitering around the front of ours but no harm done!

Great place, we enjoyed our stay! We would definitely go back. Would recommend packing your own dish towels as those provided in the camp cook area were soiled. The camp kitchen itself was clean and well appointed.

A perfect two night getaway- peaceful and beautiful and so much fun! The tipi was perfect, the view was amazing and the box of brochures and pamphlets about the are was great. The campsite was clean, the directions were easy to follow and there were kitchen supplies, a great propane stove available for camp coffee and the composting toilet was not intimidating. We had a marvelous time with a gorgeous view and will definitely come back! Thanks for creating such a fun place to escape!
