This old homestead belonged to my belated brother Steve, and after he passed unexpectedly, we decided to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere for those interested in sharing a peaceful and modest property.
The old barn is a work in progress to eventually become the base to accommodating more travelers and outdoor enthusiasts as finances permit.
My son Logan, after having worked in the service industry bartending for 14 years and hosting 100+ global travelers via CouchSurfing out in San Diego, is well-versed in creating an inviting space, enjoying the merits of hard work through the hospitality industry.
We look forward to meeting you and sharing/swapping stories around the campfire!
Learn more about this land:
Our property and profile are in constant change as we are in a stage of development, but we look to share our land with those seeking to enjoy a warm, welcome environment for those fellow wanderers, outdoor enthusiasts, vagabonds, and globetrotters. Logan is a well-traveled backpacker and together we share 5 1/2 acres here in a bustling little touristy town. We enjoy the company of those who endorse small footprint, sustainable practices and like to establish meaningful connections. All we ask is that you respect the property, our neighbors, and make an effort to add one more new friend before you depart.

What a great place to just get lost in the woods! Im new to Scamp camping and Allen was so patient with me and my son. He took time to make sure we had everything we needed and checked on us while there a couple of times. Very helpful and kind. Great wooded area. Nice solar lit portal potties, picnic bench, tons of firewood and lots of quiet! Definitely stop if going by or want to get away. Level areas and big paths to drive down to the spots. Water, and dump if you want. Perfect. Thank you Allen! 😃

Tumbleweed is now tied with Ten Sleep Brewing as my two favorite Hipcamps!!
Tumbleweed is a special place, David and Logan have gone over every detail to make their Hipcamp an incredible experience. Camping on real grass, dense shade trees, bathroom, and hospitality in spades. Communication is impeccable. Directions are super easy. This Hipcamp is perfect in everyway. Oh, and the Barn. I chilled out there and chatted with Logan past my bedtime sharing adventure stories. The barn is cozy and has games, fridge and all conveniences like the recroom I grew up with in the 80’s. One day I am sure they will have vinyl records too. Stay here if you appreciate warmth, peace and real people who care about real people. Thanks for everything Tumbleweed!!
