Josh is amazing and the property is beautiful! Highly recommend stopping here, especially for the stars at night! And all the animals are adorable.

I enjoy the sunny mornings and shady afternoons, and the chickens, geese, friendly livestock guardian dogs, and friendly burro wandering through camp make for a fun experience.

Morning sun, afternoon shade! A friendly burro as concierge, and livestock guardian dogs checking in too.

After you check in, one of their concierges will drop by and make sure all is well. The chickens pecking around your campsite aren’t much help, but either guardian dog Sascha or burro Bailey will drop by to be sure you are doing OK!
Bailey does the best she can helping you set up camp, just be sure to give her an ear scratch. And those some BIG ears!

A picture is worth 1000 words, I’m posting one right now. An awesome, peaceful sunset from Farmcamp under the big Mulberry trees.

Tent
This spot is really great for naturalists. The essence of the wild plains is here. In order to navigate around the property to find a good spot to set your tent, you will be driving on un-maintained two-track in sand -- if you don't know how to drive in sand do not try it. Rainy conditions would make these tracks too difficult and even if you could make it through you'd be making the ruts worse for others. Sometimes, the ruts are deep and occasionally the track goes over a water diversion berm -- if you have a high-clearance 4x4 but it has a long wheelbase, passing here may be impossible. The property is within ten or twenty miles of the Mountain Route of the Santa Fe Trail -- you can see the Spanish peaks to the west and you can see a prominent table mesa to the east, which is right next to Bent's Old Fort. I've heard you can see Raton Mesa from Bent's on a clear pressure-inversion day! Many burrowing owls, fox, coyotes, jackrabbits, bugs, and zero mosquitoes. We set tent on a lucky find high-ground sand patch next to the two-track, as, the bunchgrass prairie is too lumpy.

On hot days, the combination of sunny right on the tent on cool mornings and shade under the big trees on hot afternoons is awesome!

So nice and shady camping under the big trees! The dawn chorus of birds is awesome, I ran my Merlin bird app at both 5 and 6 AM, and it picked up over a dozen different species by their songs, and different species at different times. Very relaxing place to camp!

A very peaceful and quiet campsite. No road noise! And birds singing in the big trees above your tent. Very nice and accommodating hosts. I’ve already booked another stay.

1 night at Prairie Oasis
We made it to the site. Wonderful, private and peaceful place. The last quarter mile is a dirt road (no gravel) with deep ruts. Made it in fine with our Sprinter, but unfortunately decided to bail on the site as 2" of rain was expected overnight. It would have made the exit sketchy with the slick clay. Will try again if in the area.

With kids
We were the very first people to camp here, and booked the day before, so we really caught the hosts off guard. Getting there was many miles of dirt roads. With our minivan and teardrop camper, we did fine, though I wouldn't want to even attempt it after heavy rain. When the way in got confusing, the hosts came out to get us and lead us the rest of the way to our site. They were very responsive despite the spotty cell service. They even helped us push our camper into position for the best view, and oh, what a view! We were at site #1, which was recently cleared with a skidsteer and quite lumpy, but close enough to level for us, and a short walk away from a port-a-potty. (Not a good tent camping site until and unless it gets flattened and tamped down.) It overlooks a miles-wide valley with a 180 view of nearly uninhabited land. Absolutely beautiful- one of the prettiest places I've ever camped. Great sunsets. Great stargazing. Very quiet, though the host did run their generator for a bit right at bedtime. Our 6yr old was enamored with the outdoor kitties, and the hosts were very friendly. While there are some kinks to be worked out, I wouldn't hesitate to camp here again someday.
