In by 2PM, out be 1:30OM.
I widened the gate and moved my mailbox for easier access. Butane fire rings allowed on private property during a fire ban .
Camp anywhere on 60 acres. In one direction there are rolling meadow. Another rocky outcropping. Look to the south and you’ll see the BLM land that shares my fence line. If you want access to town you’re there. You choose how you want to feel. In the woods, in the forest, on huge rocks, flat land or turn around and see CR 1 ( 1/4 mile driveway). Forty five minutes west of Colorado Springs, ten miles to Divide for grocers. One half mile to ice, gas, pizza etc. It is first come first serve with the sites. Two that are near trees for large RVs. One up higher works for pull thru trailers. Plenty of room in the pasture. I just got my first negative review referring to it being dry prairie land. Some pictures are from late last summer.. We haven’t had enough rain yet for it to green up. Also it can be windy.

Beautiful land in the country, wide open hillside with some nice trees as well. There wasn't anyone else to disturb us, and the sky was wide open to watch the stars at night. Wonderful host, definitely recommend.

We took a van to Lisa's farm and camped at site 2. Nice and flat. Peaceful and isolated with great views. Lisa was very accommodating with an unexpected late arrival and gave great directions to the site. Thanks!

Beautiful views, tucked up in the trees with no one else around. We enjoyed a nice night laughing and telling stories with friends. Bonus, about 5 min away from a great coffee shop!

Twisted Sister’s Farm is the perfect blend of peaceful seclusion and easy access to all the fun. I originally picked this spot for its location—it’s close to great dirt biking trails, fishing spots, and a place to do some target shooting.
As a Colorado native, one of my favorite things about camping has always been letting the dogs off-leash in your own little slice of wilderness. That freedom has become harder to find with traditional campsites getting more crowded and cramped. That’s exactly why we went with Hipcamp, and Twisted Sister’s did not disappoint.
The property gave us the space to breathe, play, and relax. Our dogs roamed freely (respectfully, of course), and we had enough distance from others to feel like we had the place to ourselves. The campsite was wonderfully level—even pulling in after dark, we had no trouble getting the camper set up.
The hosts were incredibly kind and quick to respond to messages. And their llamas? Total sweethearts—absolutely had to come over and say hello, which was a fun little bonus.
If you’re looking for a peaceful place to post up that’s just far enough from the crowds but still close to all the action, I highly recommend Twisted Sister’s Farm. Plus, the sunsets? Next level. Some of the best I’ve seen.
