Loved seeing all the animals on the farm! As you might expect, there’s no/little cell phone service here, so just good to know. This was an easy place to stay one night and then get quickly to Mesa Verde!

Our 32 ft Class C fit perfectly within the mature pines at Paula's land. The river and views were top notch. You really dont find places like this with full hook ups. Will definitely be back. Thanks for putting your land up on hipcamp Paula. Beautiful!

I loved my stay at Marianne ranch. The spot is level and the ground was firm. The view towards the sunrise is incredible and it was really nice to have the animals around. Marianne is a gracious host, she came out to meet me and we had a lovely chat.
