One of the Snowbird campsites, along the Timber Lake trail. It was very well maintained. A bull moose walked through my campsite, twice! This is the closest campground to Timber Lake (1/4 mile up the trail) and is very convenient for a dayhike up Mount Ida.

This was taken (with a 400mm lens) in the parking lot at the store below the campground. The sand dunes sit on the west edge of the Sangre de Cristo mountains and so see some pretty awesome sunsets.

Harmony Ridge Farm

10 sites · Lodging, Tents36 acres · Ramah, CO

We purchase the land in 2010 with the hopes of building our dream home. We would come out and camp on weekends and soon built a small cabin from reclaimed materials. This cabin will be available for rental May 15th, 2023. In 2012 we were given a 12x20 ft addition to a mobile home that was repossessed to form the basis of "the cottage" that we lived in "little house on the prairie" style for 2 years while we built our home from trees my husband cut down and processed on his portable sawmill located behind the little cabin. It took 2 years to build our home with the help of our 15 year old grandson and his friend who were taking a construction technology class for their homeschooling education. Other friends and family helped on occasion and we were finally able to move in just before Christmas 2014. In 2019 we started with Hipcamp providing rustic campsites and our little cottage. in 2021 our son moved into the cottage which made it unavailable for campers so this past year we got another bright idea and the "Tree House" was conceived and built! It will be available starting May 1, 2023! Come enjoy the incredible view from this little house in the trees! Queen sized bed, camp chef propane stove (outdoors) and tiny wood burning stove to take off the morning chill! A new rustic camping cabin with a small deck is coming soon that will sleep 3-4. The views of Pikes Peak are awesome! A small 10x12 2 story barn style cabin with a deck (fire pit - weather permitting) that we are offering as a community space especially if the weather is bad! (It boasts a lift up side that will provide shade from the sun!). Horse Shoe Pit will be available soon as well. Enjoy the gentle humming of the alpaca's as they greet you in the mornings or whenever. Our 9 alpaca's are friendly and are very curious. The boys enjoy showing off their bluffness whenever we have guests! Come and get acquainted. We also have two guard dogs; 3 cats (kittens coming soon); one rooster, 3 chickens with baby chicks to arrivsoon! The sounds of the birds, cows in the meadow, early morning visits from the local deer and antelope herds; a star studded night sky while the trees whisper you to sleep at night . Incredible views of Pikes Peak, Longs Peak and Mount Evans on a clear day. Beautiful Colorado Sunrises and Sunsets! We hope for green pastures and wildflowers this spring/summer! Relax and read; play a few rounds of horseshoes; take a nice long walk around the perimeter of the property and get your miles in...
