Weekend Trip to Yeti Sanctuary

Absolutely loved this spot! The small cabin is very comfortable & has everything you need in regard to chairs, cookware, etc. My only advice would be to be sure to know your way out because Google maps got me there easily but there’s no cell service so be sure to remember your way back. Beautiful lake & Tim was so helpful!

The cabin is loaded with games, tools, condiments, extra blankets, sporting equipment, etc

We were extremely thrilled to revisit Will and Jake and their campsite. As always the campsite was clean, inviting, and well maintained. Jake cooked for us again and the gourmet burgers did not disappoint. As the last campers of the season, we were pleased to relax in a pine tree haven. So glad to make new friends and we will be back next year! Highly recommended-10/10! Thank you!

Camp Kan-Ne-Ga was absolutely wonderful. My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better site than this one for our anniversary. Will was incredibly kind and made sure we found our way to the site after dark.

Weekend Trip to Camp Kan-Ne-Ga (Ute for "home")

Doggie and I loved camping with the Jansmas. They were there to greet us coming in, and the tent and equipment were perfection. Extra bedding, lotion, candles, a solar shower and privvy, all were luxury. The dog so enjoyed being off leash all weekend. The highlight of our stay was the birthday dinner that Jake cooked on the final night, with a special creme brulee for dessert complete with candle. The coyotes (and the highway traffic) were a bit closer than I had realized they would be at times, but the rest of the time was quiet and beautiful. If you come, make sure to stop at Costello's Coffee House. We will be back!

We had a great time at this cozy spot! A great place for our baby’s fist camping trip, and having his son Jake cook dinner was even better. Tent was so clean and everything provided was just as clean and useful. Thanks for providing such an easy way for us city folk to escape to nature for a night! Can’t wait to return

1 night at Camp Kan-Ne-Ga (Ute for "home")

What a wonderful experience. We spent my partner’s birthday out in nature after an exhausting summer and Will went above and beyond with this site. It comes with all your camping basics (chairs, kitchen supplies, towels, extra blankets etc) so you don’t have to worry about packing too much. Will was there to greet us with Carrie, and we’re both so kind. Will made us feel welcome at the campsite, showing us our amenities and a few walking paths. He was always within reach to answer any of our questions. We decided since it was a special occasion, to have Jake cook for us- and I am GLAD we did! The best burger I’ve had in a long time, and it’s at our campsite. He even went and made a special dessert for us, and brought out a birthday candle and everything. The stars are abundant, the views are amazing (even from the outhouse), and the energy of Camp Ka-Ne-Ga is everything we could have wanted for a peaceful mountain getaway. We’re all excited to return soon.

We loved our stay. Will was a gracious host and the campsite had everything we needed. We stayed with our 2 kids (6 and 4) and there was plenty of room for 2 cots. Even with some rain, we had a blast hiking and visiting the wolf sanctuary. We will definitely be back.

We really enjoyed staying in Will’s beautiful tent. So many cute and special details were present, not to mention every need as a camper. All you need to bring is food and drinks. Everything else is perfectly arranged. And if you do not want to cool his son will cook for you! Even in the rain we had a lovely time. The spot is well positioned for local trails, fly fishing, and the newly reopened coffee shop less than a mile away.

3 nights at Lone Duck Campground and Cabins

Staff was friendly and helpful, cabin was basic and comfortable. Good value for the money. The bathrooms were.. fine. Kids loved the pool which was an unexpected amenity. The arcade was filled with of classic arcade games but unfortunately many were out of service because, well, they were 30-40 years old. Lone Duck was comfortable, people were quiet and respectful, and overall completely adequate.

Weekend Trip to Camp Kan-Ne-Ga (Ute for "home")

We decided to spend our 16th anniversary on Will’s glamping spot and it didn’t disappoint. Surrounded by pine trees in a remote location we couldn’t ask for better and privacy. Will was a gracious host and most accommodating with the amenities. The site was built and designed with care for anyone looking to relax in a tranquil setting. We saw tons of birds, squirrels, and even deer. Also, we were delighted to have Jake cook for us on our anniversary day-he even accommodated us with surprise dessert. The food and service was spectacular! Overall, this was a great and relaxing experience and a highly recommended glamping spot. We will be back! Thank you!

Definitely recommend this place. Tim is very welcoming. Missed him at check-in, but he came by later and we chatted for a good hour or so. Location is also a good spot, there is no signal, but town is about 20 minutes away and Woodland Park is about 30 minutes away. Right next to Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, which is one of Colorado's International Dark Sky Places. The hut itself is simple and rustic. Communal fire pit as well as canoes and kayak to use on the pond.
