Shady camping along Love Gulch

Karen and Tony are such great hosts, making sure we had everything we needed for a great stay. There were 8 of us total camping on their property -- 5 adults and 3 kids, ranging from ages 2 all the way to 80. Everyone had a wonderful time. The campsite is directly behind the teepees, right next to the gulch. Our hosts gave us access to an outhouse with a composting toilet, and the campsite has solar lights to guide your way. We also had access to a communal outdoor kitchen with a 3-burner propane stove, a griddle, pots and pans and even tubs for washing dishes. Tony made sure to continually replenish our water jugs, which was a really nice touch. All in all, we would definitely stay here again, and we may try out the beautiful teepees next time! Great hosts, and Hotchkiss is truly a hidden gem.

We had a great time at Karen and Tony's place. The tipis on the land are rented out via AirBNB, so we got to use the shared kitchen with some other renters. We had a great time, and our dog Lucy did not want to leave (like really, she was serious)!

What a sweet spot! Tipi Haven is close to town on a lovely (and currently tiny) little stream. We didn't spend much time at our camp spot but our hosts were awesome, the directions were easy and the North Fork Valley is such a wonderful and dimensional place to explore. Next time I want to stay in a tipi!

Karen and Tony were great hosts and the campsite was beautiful! The view of the mountains is breathtaking and the Love Gulch was peaceful. The shared kitchen is a nice touch with pots and pans, supplies for dishes and a dining table. Will definitely be coming back.

This place was awesome. Our campsite was in a shady spot by a stream behind the tipis and it was perfect. Very clean and well kept. We didn’t stay in one of the tipis but from what we saw they looked very nice and we will be back to check them out. Campsite is located close to town and about an hour from the Black Canyon which was the purpose for our visit. Great views and facilities, including out houses and kitchen area.

Tent-camping in the shade by the stream was peaceful and the outdoor kitchen/dining area was ideal.

Great camp site. The only place to camp wasn't clearly marked and we had to move our tent and belongings but the hosts communicated that they plan to remedy that. The site is sweet and well kept. It was wonderful.
