Serenity uniquely situated in the middle of hundreds of acres of County Open Space farmland, our micro-tiny house is seated at the edge of our heart-shaped pond in the back corner of our five acre farm. Unobstructed views of the Front Range and Longs Peak, songs of prairie birds and the occasional Blue Heron or Osprey fishing for dinner in the pond, endlessly brilliant sunsets, and the glimmer of a night sky full of stars await you in this peaceful retreat.

Welcome to our charming 2-acre meadow nestled in East Boulder. Just minutes from town - near bike trails, shops and restaurants. A great pitstop on your way to or from the mountains - or base camp for the adventures in Front Range. We aren't fancy, but we are convenient, cozy and safe. Gate code will be provided 48 hours before arrival.
We have spots in the wide open meadow for Tents, Motorhomes, Vans, Trailers, and Rooftop setups. The grounds are a bit sloped but we've got leveling boards (please leave them behind).
We've got Boulder's best eggs, a few walking paths through tall wild grasses, a campfire ring, solar shower, small sink, gas grill, and a lovely porta-jon that’s cleaned weekly.
We can handle RVs up to 45 feet - truck and trailer. It’s a big field, but a narrow, winding and steep gravel ramp to get in and out.
We have a community fire pit with free burn wood, though the big logs are few and far between; your own firewood is recommended - as well as an ax or saw. If it's windy, please skip the fire... the BFD is very strict about this!!
We have well water feeding a solar shower (only hot when the sun shines) and sink (non potable unless you have a filter).
We have a wading / dog pool continually refreshed from the creek. It’s a saving grace in the summertime. 8/9/26- creek is currently dried up.
Please help yourself to eggs up at the coop - look for the Venmo QR. The chickens free range during the day, so please MIND YOUR DOG.
THE GOOD:
*Easy in and out location close to town
*Lots of sun
*Outdoor solar shower
*Cold creek water plunge pool
*Fresh eggs
*Good view of small airplanes
*Community fire pit
*Gas grill
THE BAD:
*Daytime road noise
*Small airport nearby
*No Generators - no exceptions
*Almost zero shade
*Shower only hot when the sun shines
*Pool is fed from a creek
*Good Morning Rooster
Please reach out with any questions you may have.
Safe travels!

A-Lodge Boulder is a 30 room lodge just 2 miles above downtown Boulder, Colorado. We are located in a wilderness area of Boulder Canyon, right at the junction with Fourmile Canyon. We have three #vanlife sites and four tentsites for offer on Hipcamp.
We have a BRAND NEW barrel sauna, hot tub, grills, seasonal pool (Memorial Day to Labor Day), meeting space, outdoor beer garden, bathrooms and showers for campers and a wonderful trail to Betasso Preserve right from your campsite. The Fourmile Creek runs through our property along our large lawn area. Great views and you might see bear, deer, elk, moose, foxes, or even a mountain lion!
Walk-in sites are just a short hike, about 100 feet, on an unmanicured trail to our platforms. We provide the platform for your tent as well as access to all of our lodge's amenities; front desk, lobby, bar & beer garden, fire pits, grills, bathrooms, shower, outdoor common areas, free wifi, etc.
A-Lodge has a 7-day non-refundable cancellation policy. If you cancel within 7 days of your arrival, 50% of the total is non-refundable.
Our guests love us too! Check out what a fellow camper had to say:
"First time Hipcamper and A-Lodge visitor here, I’d definitely recommend checking this place out if you’re traveling to the Boulder area. The tent platforms were easy to get to and spaced far enough apart for privacy and generally a nice break from setting up a tent on a gravel pad. WiFi was stable throughout my visit and I was able to get some work done before heading home."

The hosts, the camp site, the backstory and the homey feel of this property has been the standout of my camping trip. Very blessed to have met these folks. The campsite is next to a pasture where horses and cattle roam and graze, a large shaded commons area for gathering or cooking kept things comfortable even in the summer heat. Absolutely beautiful land surrounding you with a view overlooking the flatirons and 14ers rising westward. Would definitely stay here again and support these hardworking farmers. Thanks Bonnie :)

This place was gorgeous. There is so much to explore right on site, both Dot and Byron make sure you understand how to safely stay there while ensuring a great time is had by all. It's fairly close to Lyons and a very pretty drive there if you need any supplies or a night out. We slept so well in our tent both nights with the stream and rain lulling us to sleep. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware, dishes and utensils with an easy to use grill and burner system. We also had access to a gas fire pit. The stream was a nice cool dip after a long hike, and the small hike up to Balancing Rock was doable for our 6 and 8 year old with some beautiful views. This is definitely a step up from regular tent camping, but still provides a sense of adventure and resourcefulness found in the outdoors. We hope to return soon!!

We had a wonderful time here! Dot and Byron could not have been nicer or more accommodating. They’re wonderful people.
There was a group of 8 of us so we had the RV site, both wagons, one of the glamping tents, and the add-on teardrop trailer. It was late July, and we were very comfortable sleeping at night with nighttime temperatures dipping down to 60-62°F, and daytime temperatures were also quite comfortable, despite the nearly 100°F temperatures down in Lyons.
We slept in our RV, but the others in our party said that the beds were extremely comfortable in the wagons and tent, and that they slept very well.
For those of you with solar on your RV, the campsite gets pretty good sun from about 10-6 every day, so we had no trouble keeping our batteries topped off. We never needed to use our air conditioner, thanks to the elevation, so even in the height of summer, comfortable dry camping here for several days is quite doable.
This kind of camping is so much better than staying hubcap-to-hubcap in an RV park! We will definitely be back.

Peaceful and quiet stay on such nice property! Though near their lovely home and one neighboring house, it felt very private. We appreciated having water and electrical hookups, as well as bringing our dogs — they loved sniffing around and we enjoyed walking them along the forest trail right out their back gate. Also it’s only ~20 mins to Brainard Lake Rec Area. For those with travel trailers or RVs, do be mindful of the driveway entry as well as backing into the campsite.
