A 1950 gas station and surrounding open space converted into a community and performance venue, free bookstore, food bank, and garden called Counterpath (please Google for full info). We're right next to downtown Denver in an urban environment, a neighborhood with many single-family homes and apartments, classic old Colfax Ave. just a block away. The building is a garage but the large outdoor area (flat gravel) is where Hipcampers stay and hosts sculptural work and community events of all kinds. Open year-round, great launch pad for exploring Denver and Colorado's Front Range!

This was our 2nd stay, and I would definitely return again. Tim is a great host, warm and welcoming! We have 3 dogs and it was nice to have a fenced in area, which also provides a little more privacy as 14th is a busier street. There's a small table and a few chairs to enjoy when the weather is nice. There's a community garden, a little library, and they host a food bank on Fridays from 5-6pm here.
It was my second time at Counterpath. Just like the first time, Tim was a wonderful host and my stay was fantastic!
First time I stayed a couple of days , this time was a week…perfect spot to “city camp” 😀



Great spot with power and water close to DT Denver, convenient safe and secure. The host was willing to go above and beyond as well.

Nice and quiet property in close proximity to restaurants, shopping, and downtown. There was a water spigot for a hose and
30 amp electrical hookup. Tim, was a fantastic host and made check in and check out a breeze! This is a food bank on certain days and you can even get fresh produce when available. Also, there was a free book stand to grab a book to read if you have the time!! All in all, it was a wonderful place to make a base camp and I will definitely give Tim a shout if I ever need a place again in the area!!
(I was in a sprinter van..there’s plenty of room if you’re in a RV, camper, van, or car)
So much love!
If you are needing to be in Denver and not tent camping or don't care about noise, this place is great! I was greeted with fresh veggies on arrival, and didn't have to wait for the hosts to let me in. Tim checked up on us several times throughout our month stay and was very understanding about the chaos that is three dogs. We'll be back!
Such a great spot if you want to be in the city and close to anything you may need. Tim was such a great host. He provided 30amps, water fill up, and a dump station was only 10 mins away.
So many great places to eat and shop less than 15mins in any direction. It was a perfect urban camp.
Will stay again!
Nice accommodating space and great communication!
