Our homestead property is 15 acres with trees and open pasture raising traditional farmstead animals in sheep, chickens, and ducks, and growing produce and flower gardens! You will be surrounded by sounds of the farm while being near local attractions, dining, and shopping. Property is conveniently located near Loveland, Johnstown, Berthoud, Fort Collins, and Greeley. Less than 15 minutes from The Ranch events center which hosts the Larimer County Fair, concerts, sporting events, and more. Also near sports tournament sites such as Loveland Sports Park and Fort Collins Soccer Complex. Other attractions within driving distance such as Estes Park, Rocky Mountain National Park, Lake Loveland, and Boyd Lake State Park provide many opportunities for fishing, hiking, kayaking, and more! No pets are allowed due to the farm animal surroundings and inside maintenance of the tent and site. Feel free to reach out to us for special requests regarding pets and we will let you know!When sending a booking request, please include a few details about your trip. This greatly helps us reduce spam requests and to know that you as our guest will care about the place where you stay! This is a farm property and a small working homestead. We are glad to host you and trust that you will enjoy it respectfully! Glamping canvas tent site set up with everything you need for a relaxing getaway! Camp and glamp in a comfortable well-maintained homestead farm setting on a raised deck with beautiful views. Peaceful sunrises in the morning, sounds and surroundings of a family farm during the day, photo-worthy sunsets in the evening, stars at night. Enjoy a private outhouse, fire pit, picnic area with grill, and patio seating in peaceful surroundings. (NOTE: Some older pictures show a nearby pond, which is no longer in service. There is a low-level irrigation water creek that is in service from late Spring through Summer about 20 yards from the tent.) ******* SEASONAL NOTES: Average high/low temperatures (degrees Fahrenheit): January 44/16 February 44/17 March 57/27 April 62/34 May 68/42 June 84/53 July 88/59 August 86/56 September 79/48 October 64/35 November 52/24 December 42/16 The temperatures and weather conditions can vary greatly throughout the year. Please plan accordingly and see notes below for seasonal tips. WINTER: 1.) Drinking water is provided year-round, whether in a cooler or at the outhouse. You may bring extra water with you if you wish. 2.) The wood stove keeps the tent warm; here are some resources to help make your stay comfortable: Wood Stove Getting Started: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yYPz2xuyHc More wood stove Details: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5aWst8M_Pk Keeping Warm Overnight: https://mffire.com/wood-stove-101-how-to-build-a-fire-that-lasts-all-night/ SPRING: 1.) May/June/July are the most likely times for conditions with thunderstorms, wind, and rain/hail. Guests have stayed safe and dry, and you may see reviews for their comments. 2.) Moth season is usually May/June and lasts a few weeks. They are not harmful, but they can get nestled into crevices and surprise us at times. We try to help by providing moth traps and bug zapper lights. SUMMER: 1.) We provide a small battery-powered fan for the hotter days. 2.) The daylight is long, the sunrises and sunsets are long and beautiful. AUTUMN/FALL: 1.) Many people think this is the most captivating season for camping. As with Spring, the weather varies greatly, so prepared accordingly. 2.) Autumn tends to be calm, and snow can come as early as October or November. We have wood available for the wood stove as needed. ******* Owner/resident lives onsite in a home close to the tent area, about 40-50 yards away. Tent area has separate access and a privacy fence. Located about 45 minutes from Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park, and 10 minutes from many local shopping and dining options. We are working toward regenerative agriculture. You will see chickens, cows, ducks, sheep, pigs, and cats all doing their farm work alongside wildlife birds and other sounds of a farm. The tent is beautifully arranged for 2 guests, with a queen size bed, plates, utensils, and cookware for two. Please contact us if you have any questions about staying with children or extra guests as we may be able to accommodate special requests. There is road noise about a 1/4 mile away, mostly during the day and some at night, so if you want something really secluded, you will find better options out there. Most of our guests have said they were not bothered by that noise, but everyone is different. Feel free to browse reviews as well. Thanks for checking out a stay with us!

Stunning Sunrise!
We had a nice stay! The tent was lovely and the views were incredible - if you stay here, definitely watch the sunrise if you’re able. We were very comfortable and both the tent and outhouse were very well maintained. Wish we could’ve stayed longer but were unfortunately in a rush.
