Weekend Trip to Crystal Ranch
The Stargazer A frame cabin we stayed in was incredible. The sites are relatively close together but are extremely well placed so you still get privacy and good views. We made a fire in the firepit and lounged in the hammock before going to bed. The weather got gloomy but it was so cozy inside that it wasn't a problem, even without heat/electricity. After the storm had passed we went outside in the dark and the sky was absolutely gorgeous and starry. Very peaceful and much needed.

The camping spot was great! Beautiful views and a well equipped site. William was a good communicator and his directions were spot on. Only downside is the camper may be a little cramped if you're over 6 feet tall.

I had a nice stay with my dog at the end of September. The view is as nice as everyone says. The site is big with an outdoor fire pit, but i didn't use. You are at 11k feet and will feel it hiking and chopping wood for kindling. That was fun with a heavy axe. The portable toilet is interesting. still not sure how I feel about it. Temps were down to 35 night but was fine inside with the wood stove. The road up is pretty rough, but I made it fine in a Tesla 3. Just go slow.

3 nights at Meadow Hot Springs Glamping Cabin
Loved the set up of this well built cabin. Wood stove was a nice feature and kept it nice and toasty inside even with freezing temps.
Seclusive and convenient to hiking Mount Bross and even Mounts Lincoln, Cameron and Democrat. Saw a moose and several deer in the open area in front of the cabin which was a highlight.

Beautiful land, breathtaking views day and night. Easy to get to. Only a 40 minute gorgeous drive from Red Rocks where we saw the last ever Tipper show. Super romantic and just lovely. Would definitely stay here again.

A perfect getaway, comfy, cozy, and quiet. We woke up to mule deer and birds and took an incredible nap during a light rainstorm. David was kind and communicated with us with no issues at all.

2 nights at Mountain Meadow Glamp Camp
The best part is that it is off the beaten path. Beautiful, private spot to hang out with the family and the dogs. Great fishing and hiking nearby. We would definitely book this spot again. Road to the property is a bit bumpy but easy for our Pathfinder and Outback.

Incredible views! We loved getting to see the stars from the skylights. The cabin was nice and cozy with the fire going. It was well stocked with the essentials. The host had great communication and there were very detailed instructions for everything.

2 nights at Meadow Hot Springs Glamping Cabin
Loved staying at the a-frame. Clear directions to locate it and to stay and didn’t encounter anyone else during our two day stay. Saw lots of different animals and enjoyed star gazing from the bed.

Absolutely stunning location. The cabin is great and fitting of the host’s description. Bed was quite comfortable. Grill is solid and will enable you to cook most anything—works perfectly as an oven. The cabin is small but well designed. There are some tight corners with low ceiling clearance (like the sink area) making it a bit tough for tall people. Couple more things to note that may be helpful. there are functional USB ports but the typical outlets did not work for us. Don’t expect to plug anything in. Solar panels provide the electricity— it’s probably by design that the outlets are deactivated reserving power for other things. Solar panels also provide the heat for the “hot springs.” The system was working—warm water was entering the pool, but not at a sufficient rate to heat the cold (and beautifully clear) spring water. There is evidence that they are still working on it. I’m hopeful that one day they’ll be able to deliver on the “hot” part. We still took exhilarating dips a couple of times. Take the altitude seriously, If you’re coming from sea level, you may feel sick for your entire stay. We live at 5600 feet and still spent a full day adjusting. It’s a special place—We had a wonderful time. William was very helpful.

We loved staying at the basecamp A-frame for a night! The little cabin was beautiful, cozy, and quiet, and the views were excellent. The porta potty was super clean and the outdoor shower was really lovely and warm. Would definitely recommend for a getaway!

Our family of 4 and 2 pups had an excellent experience at Zella Hut! So beautiful with so many different terrains and PRIVACY!! The shelter is everything you could ask for and more. Two king beds with decent mattresses and room for dog beds, couch, table and stove. Tons of blankets, firewood and the little kitchen has everything! Favorite part was the “hot spring” dipping pool next to the creek with a little waterfall! Close second was the view from the expansive cement decking! We had some fun adventures further up the road and next time we will definitely do one of the three 14ers we were so close to. But honestly, that deck was just stunning…our happy place for sure!
Thanks for hosting us William- we appreciate your quick and clear communication 🤙🏽

This is honestly the best glamping experience ever! We stayed in Basecamp, although the sun can be a bit tough in the morning opening up the A frame helps a lot! There's a porta potty, a sink to wash your hands, and the property is very beautiful. We will definitely be coming back!

Group trip
We really enjoyed the cabin. Location was very private. We enjoyed hiking in the area, including to the bristlecones at windy ridge, which you could hike to from the cabin. William was great at communicating and answering questions. The shower is outside. The portable toilet was inside - we did bring a sheet so there was more privacy given the glass door to the toilet area. We opted to clean ourselves rather than pay the cleaning fee. We really enjoyed our weekend here.

Absolutely gorgeous secluded location. Quiet, dark skies, and far enough away from it all to really feel it. Host was very communicative and helpful, I hope I can visit again one day :)

Where to go
Dillon Reservoir Recreation Area
On the eastern end of Main Street, the Frisco Bay Marina provides easy access to the Dillon Reservoir and its 27 miles of shoreline. The marina offers kayak, paddleboard, and pontoon boat rentals, boat tours, and guided fishing trips. Three national forest campgrounds sit just minutes from downtown Frisco in the Dillon Reservoir Recreation Area.
Breckenridge
Just 10 miles south of Frisco, Breckenridge is a top Colorado summer destination and home to one of America’s favorite ski resorts. From mountain biking and hiking to fly fishing, rafting, and horseback riding, the town has it all, including live music and festivals in summer. The closest campgrounds are around the Dillon Reservoir, while free dispersed camping is available on Boreas Pass Road.
Green Mountain Reservoir
Campers will find more options at Green Mountain Reservoir, a 40-minute drive from Frisco. There are seven campgrounds around the lake, and most are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Fishing and boating are the most popular activities at the lake, but there’s also hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and a designated swimming area.
When to go
June through early September is the best time for hiking, biking, and water sports in Frisco. Summer is the busiest time to visit, but it’s also the most pleasant time to visit weather-wise.

Ski season typically runs from early November and through early April.
