Visit us and discover why Hipcamp named our property the best Hipcamp to Visit in Nebraska in 2024, and the two years before that. Located within 2 miles from Hwy 71, we're easy to find, easy to love, and easy to leave, according to hundreds of guests who have left positive recommendations... Peaceful Prairie Campsites consists of 200+ acres of prairie pasture bordering the south side of Scotts Bluff National Monument. Under the care of husband and wife team Frank Marquez and Lisa Betz-Marquez, the beautiful bluffs feature a rosy hue that glows on the hills at dawn and dusk. Tent sites (including pop up campers, car and camper vans but not RVs or pull-behind trailers) are located directly on the prairie. RV sites (all offering 50 amp electricity) are in a designated area on crushed concrete near our corral. All sites offer immediate foot access to hiking at various levels of challenge, including the south side of our nation's Scotts Bluff National Monument. Our 33-year-old sweetheart horse Tigger, is free roaming the area, and enjoys meeting campers. Tigger can be placed in another area if you would rather she didn't wander by for conversation. Prairie guests have relished the feeling of having the place to themselves to enjoy the majesty of the landscape, the magic of our starry night skies, and the delicious drinking water that comes from an aquifer deep underground. Lisa is the fourth generation of her family to live on Valley View Farm, located directly south of the prairie. Her family has been steward of these lands since 1925. Lisa is a member of a pioneer family. Ancestor, Martin Gering, came to the valley in 1887. As an early investor in the fledgling town, the town of Gering was named for him.

Lisa was very welcoming and the views are beautiful. Unfortunately it was very windy when we came so we didn't get to enjoy the full experience, we didn't meet the horse and couldn't spend time outside. Nonetheless we had a pleasant night.

The campsite was so lovely! The day I was arriving the winds were blowing very strongly and Lisa called me to suggest a different site that had more protection from the winds. It was very peaceful and quiet. A great experience!

Lisa was great - very nice and accommodating, she even gave us some delicious farm fresh eggs! We loved meeting the resident horse and everything we wanted to see was close by. It is the plains, so it was definitely windy, which explains why the outhouse isn't at the campsite, but it is an easy walk. We appreciated having a picnic table and a fire pit at the site and the views if the bluff are beautiful, especially for sunset.

Super host, awesome site
Excellent host and super accommodating. Highly recommend staying here and it's just around the corner from Scott's Bluff National Monument. Lisa was even nice enough to give us fresh eggs for breakfast. Be prepared for some wind, it is Nebraska. Would definitely stay here again.
