The Lazy Horse Ranch is easy to get to off of the main road. I had a great night at Lazy Horse Ranch. It was quite and comfortably. The hook ups were in working order. I even got some much needed rain. I checked out the horses, the library, there was a place to make coffee, do laundry. They had information about trails in the area. Maybe I will bring my horses out for a horsey vacation in the future. Thanks for the nice stay.

It just depends on what your needs are. There's are community of people here and it's good for that. We found it far too windy and ended up leaving to head to picture rocks instead.

Damon was a kind and caring camp host. His setup is rustic so don't expect a glamping experience but for those looking for an interesting place to camp away from the world it's well worth it. There are several different small hand built buildings on the property, one of which has a shared kitchen and bathroom, it's rough but is good enough for cooking and showers. The property also has several trees and shrubs planted by Damon and paths that one can take walks on. Oh, and there's also goats to check out! I also need to mention that Damon is a uniquely talented musical soul so if you're into playing or composing he might give you a mini tour of of his musical creations - they're very interesting- and show you his setup where he works on his music and offer to play some music together - my husband was surprised to find a musical mind to connect with in the middle of nowhere. He's also very knowledgeable of the surrounding area and was more than happy to share his tips with my husband and I on the best spots to visit and scenic drives to take. Damon made our camp stay very interesting.

Good pull through spot with lots of birds and farm animals around. The proprietors were kind. Note that you access the property by turning west at 31.9273, -109.7541. We missed the turn the first loop around since we didn't see any other rigs (it was empty). There are some tight cattle guards at the turns off of Kansas Settlement Rd.

We were fortunate to have Lazy House Ranch all to ourselves during our trailer camping stay, and it couldn’t have been more relaxing. From the moment we arrived, the hosts made us feel completely welcome and at home, which set the tone for an incredible experience. The property is absolutely stunning, with wide-open spaces and breathtaking scenery that made every moment feel magical. Whether it was sipping coffee with panoramic views or enjoying the peace and quiet under the stars, this place is the definition of tranquility. Though we didn’t utilize any facilities, the setup was perfect for trailer camping. It offered the space and serenity we were looking for, with nature as our ultimate amenity. If you’re looking for a trailer camping spot that’s equal parts peaceful and picturesque, Lazy House Ranch is a must. We’re already looking forward to returning!
