Our small ranch is located at the crest of a hilly cliff off of a peaceful dirt road with beautiful 180 degree views of Pikes Peak and the Rocky Mountains. We see hawks taking advantage of the upslope winds just about every day. This is a wonderful place to put up your feet and watch the sunset over the mountains and later take in the stars.

Our small ranch is located at the crest of a hilly cliff off of a peaceful dirt road with beautiful 180 degree views of Pikes Peak and the Rocky Mountains. We see hawks taking advantage of the upslope winds just about every day. This is a wonderful place to put up your feet and watch the sunset over the mountains and later take in the stars.
Our large campsite is located in a spacious flat area that was originally built fifty years ago as a horse ring. It has beautiful views and is just off of our driveway about 50 yards away from our log home, the barn and a small rancher's home. Parking is easy. Campers are welcome to camp in the pasture if you prefer more privacy, but your vehicle will need "off road" clearance. I've listed this as an RV site, rather than a tent site, because no matter where you camp, you'll need to "pack out" all waste materials. (Please come prepared for B.Y.O.B...or "Bring your own bucket".)
We are located just two miles off of Route 83 between Colorado Springs and Parker, Colorado. Castlewood Canyon State Park, with it's beautiful nature and hiking trails, is a ten minute drive and there are several other hiking and biking trails within a 20 minute drive. Castle Rock's antique and outlet shops are 30 minutes away as is Parker's weekend Farmer's Market. Colorado Springs and Garden of the Gods is within a 45 minute drive.
Please contact me if you would like me to consider pets. I allow dogs under 30 lbs if they are leashed and, of course, you clean up after them.
If you are a family traveling with many children, please contact me regarding special pricing for children. (I once was part of such a family and I have a soft spot you.) That said, this is our home and we hope everyone will respect the peacefulness here.

This was an amazing place to stay for the night! We are tent campers, and the stay on Jenn's ranch did not disappoint! Jenn came out to greet us and was very friendly and hospitable. The site was exactly as described. We will definitely remember this ranch for the future!
My husband and I and our five children stopped here just for a quick overnight. Jenn came out to meet us as we pulled in. She was very accommodating and understanding with our five kids running around after being cooped up all day. Beautiful views and she even brought out a few more chairs for the table that was set up for our bigger family. Would definitely recommend staying here.
It was lovely having children running around here! And you were all so gracious. Hope your visit to Colorado was smooth and fun and come back any time.
Peaceful and serene with a great view of Pikes Peak. Jenn was a great host!
Thanks Jason! You are welcome back any time your travels bring you this way.
Jenn’s land was a picturesque meadow with views of sprawling hills mountains and sunset. Perfect for relaxing after a long day of rock climbing at the nearby Castlewood canyon SP. Jenn herself was very friendly and made sure we were completely comfortable. Can’t wait to be back.
Glad you had a good visit Jake and you are welcome back any time:)
Beautiful spot, quiet location, great views and exceptional host.
Jenn was very much accommodating and available to answer any questions. We had a wonderful stay.
Jenn is an amazing host and human being. She welcomed me from the start and is a very gracious and amazing host.
Her land has amazing views and is super quiet at night. I will definitely be booking with her in the future when I am back out that way. An overall wonderful 3 day stay on an amazing property with an equally amazing host!!
5 stars all the way!
We really enjoyed our evening here. It was a quiet setting with a beautiful view of the Colorado landscape. We didn’t get a chance to see a sunset because of storms moving through but the sky and clouds were amazing. Jenn was a very considerate hostess and we would without a doubt stay again!
If you want a peaceful place to spend an evening, this is a wonderful choice.
Amazing. This was my first hipcamp experience and everything was perfect. Jen is an amazing hostess. Very welcoming to our family of 7. We had plenty of space for ourselves and the location is beautiful in early June. Green as far you can see with great views of the rockies and Pikes peak. Very level spot to park my rv with amazing views out the windows. Water easily available. Not much in the way of shade trees, but that means there's not much blocking the views. We took a day trip to Castlewood canyon state park only about 10 minutes away. That was amazing as well.
