Amazing views
Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.
This land was originally a gold mine in the late 1800s that was then abandoned and later subdivided and sold off. This 10 acres was known as Gold Dollar #1, #2, and #3. There is currently an agricultural grazing lease on the property. The main minerals that can be found are quartz, pyrite and garnet.Pitch a tent and enjoy the beautiful views! This is the smallest and most secluded camp spot, on the back of the 10-acre property. This beautiful spot overlooks the valley and you can enjoy watching the sunrise. It is not suitable for a camper or pop up. A quick 7 minute drive to Cripple Creek where many tourist attractions await- mining tours, gold panning, gambling, restaurants, railroad tours and more; 10-15 min from several popular hikes, Mueller State and Dome Rock parks; 40 minutes from the Fossil Beds in Florissant and Wolf Sanctuary. Water can be hauled from a natural spring 2.5 miles away. Area wildlife includes bear, deer, elk, mountain lions and big horn sheep. Sorry, no campers/trailers or RVs. Expect to go down a steep graded hill that's inaccessible by car during snow season. Site is pot/420 friendly. Need more space? Check out Sweet Ass Meadow, our other site.

The Lookout is gorgeous, and so quiet. Will definitely be back when I get a chance!

I loved Erica’s incredible mountain space!! The land was well maintained, her instructions were clear, and it was incredibly peaceful. Definitely a one of a kind spot to recharge in nature, and I hope to return in the near future!

Beautiful spot, very easy to get to. Pretty well secluded with tons of acres to explore and hike. Going to head back here next summer.

Didn't go, will try again next year
We have actually not been to the lookout yet and cancelled our trip at the last minute due to illness (sunk cost, they have a strict cancellation policy). We hope to go another time. Host was very helpful and recommended a fun activity nearby that was a big hit with the kids.

Great view, but a bit disappointed
Beautiful view is accurate, but the site felt small and a little cramped. Doing anything other than camping requires a drive. Owner supplied a propane grill, chairs, and tables which was nice. Neighborhood was quiet but consists of a bunch of depressing, run-down dwellings. Still can hear a little traffic in the distance. Also, the site-owner told us no campfires two days before arrival even though she advertised campfires, then capitulated after I wrote an email at 5 A.M. researching the lack of burn bans in the city and county. Felt a little bait-and-switchy. Not bad, but wouldn't recommend for the price point. 3/5 stars.
