After traveling the US in our motorhome for almost 5 years my husband Scott and I know the value of a smiling face and a helping hand after a day (or week) of travel. Exploring and experiencing this amazing country, its diversity and incredible people enhanced our lives in so many ways. In mid 2017 we found out our first grandchild was on the way. Long story short we parked the RV and parked ourselves here in Paonia, CO. In December of that year, we moved onto this amazing property full time and started the long list of fix ups (the list is still long). lol We are blessed to have our two adult sons and (aforementioned) grandson living on this property with us. Our philosophy is to live in the moment as the present is the gift. Whether enjoying a sunrise or a sunset or anytime in between you’ll likely find us outside most days. In that, we love all that nature has to offer including fresh fruits and veggies, animals, beauty and fragrances. Sage View Ranch is being created with the desire to have people experience the natural rustic beauty and magic of Paonia. Scott and I look forward to meeting you :)

Our stay at old moon acres was awesome! We all had a blast and especially our kids. Stacy was very accommodating to our needs and helping us out from the very beginning. She is very nice and takes good care of her guests. It was a nice get away from the city. It is very kid friendly and a nice place to take the family. The place is very clean and it was a nice experience sleeping in a Tipi. Has a nice view of the mountains, a nice little spot to cook with everything provided and a nice fire pit to have a camp fire at night. Also not too far away are some fishing spots and a small town Crawford for whatever you might need. I would definitely recommend this place it was a nice stay 10/10 for us.

Weekend Trip to Old Moon Acres Tipi Haven

The property was perfect! My husband and sons had one Tipi, and my friend and her son had another and they were spacious and cute! The mattresses were comfy and the kids had so much fun! The porta-potties were clean, and the shower was perfect. Would much rather this bathroom set up than any facility at a camp ground. The little kitchen area by the creek was accommodating and relaxing, and the creek was a blast for the kids to get muddy and play in, without the concern of drowning. There was plenty of area in the pretty grass for the kids and puppies to run! Can’t wait to go back!

Weekend Trip to Old Moon Acres Tipi Haven

The Tipi Haven is a little slice of heaven in the North Fork! My son and I spent a really magical night in Raven in the secret little field just a mile from Big B’s. Cooking area in the shaded grove was a nice touch and it was amazing to have a fan in the tipi, especially during the Paonia summer. Hosts came and checked on us in the morning and the little creek and knotty climbing trees were a wonder. We’ll stay here again soon!

Super easy! Bed was comfortable and the tipi was clean. Yes, there were some bugs but it’s a tipi. Don’t forget your sheets and you’ll have a wonderful stay.

It was an amazing experience. The host was friendly and informative. The animals are beautiful and love people. It was great feeding them. Definitely will return for the view off the water and the much needed break. Thanks for being amazing and sharing your space. See ya soon.

Weekend Trip to Old Moon Acres Tipi Haven

Everything was nice and clean, which I have come to release expectation around, when camping. I took my daughter and her three friends for her birthday and we played and sang and ate and it was great. The original listing said there was a lake, but the owners were really wonderful in explaining that the previous owners perhaps thought they were supposed to list what was near by, rather than what was on the property. They offered to bring out the irrigation cannon for the girls to play in the water and they absolutely loved it! Hot cranky teens are no fun, so I was extra grateful for this. The portapotty's were super clean and didn't smell like chemicals, someone helped us find fire wood and it was peaceful and lovely through and through. I would recommend this to anyone , especially if you're tired of the desert and want to lay in the hammocks among the trees by a little creek.

First off Stacy did a great job at communicating back with any questions I had! We stayed around July 4th and had a great time! Plenty of space away from the other campers but good community feeling as well. The tipis had a cool ambiance and were a fun way to experience a new part of CO.

2 nights at Old Moon Acres Tipi Haven

We loved the Tipi we stayed at! It was large enough for the five of us. I will say though, the porta potties seemed like it was forever away because we were the last Tipi. The Tipi’s were somewhat spaced out and you have to park a good ways away from the Tipi’s. Personally, I would have loved to be able to park next the Tipi I was staying in. So, make sure not to show up after dark or you will be packing things in the dark like we did. There is no light to help either. It kind of ruined the experience for us.
