Peaceful Prairie Campsites consists of 200+ acres of prairie pasture bordering the south side of Scotts Bluff National Monument. Under the care of third generation steward, Lisa Betz-Marquez, the beautiful bluffs feature a stunning backdrop to a those seeking a private and peaceful experience, birding, wildlife-spotting, or an adventure-seeking hike.
Rustic Tent sites (allowing cars, vans, rooftop tents, truck campers, and motorcycles, but not RVs or pull-behind trailers) are located directly on the prairie.
The prairie is a fragile environment. To preserve its beauty and health, trailers and RVs must book the RV sites. We appreciate your cooperation.
RV sites 50 amp electricity and a rustic experience on crushed concrete near our corral. You'll have foot access just steps from the prairie.
All sites share access to delicious potable water, a clean porta potty, and a funky outdoor camp shower (with unheated water), as well as private foot access to hiking at various levels of challenge to the south side of our nation's Scotts Bluff National Monument.
A small group of yearling cattle are at home on the prairie in summer months, and may share you the prairie tent area with campers in the months of May and June.
Prairie guests have relished the feeling of having the place to themselves to enjoy the majesty of the landscape, the magic of our starry night skies and the soulful communion with the land.
Lisa is the fourth generation of her family to live on Valley View Farm, located directly south of the prairie. Her family has been steward of these lands since 1925. Lisa is a member of a pioneer family. Ancestor, Martin Gering, came to the valley in 1887. As an early investor in the fledgling town, the town of Gering was named for him. If you're a history buff, ask Lisa to tell you more...

Weekend Trip to Beckwourth Peak High Camp
Staying in the yurt at Forest’s property just south of Portola was awesome! The yurt was super comfortable, with plenty of space to sleep, lounge, and enjoy meals, drinks, and games. There was coffee, a full fridge/freezer, plenty of pillows and blankets, a radiating space heater, and plenty of natural light.
The property was also really cool - hot showers and clean, roomy bathrooms, easily accessible potable water, and a great campfire ring with plenty of firewood. The night skies during our stay were incredible, and there was very little noise from the town/vehicles.
Portola is a short five minute drive down the hill, and there are plenty of cute restaurants, cafes, and amenities. We can highly recommend the Brewing Lair and Lost Sierra Wine Co that are 20 minutes west in Blairsden!
This cool, quaint, pseudo-remote cabin compound was an absolute gem, and the camp hosts Kayla and Austin were super kind and helpful. My wife and I wanted a quick, quiet little getaway from the city for a couple of days, and we got exactly what we wanted. We will be keeping this Beckwourth Peak High Camp location in our favorites for future stays!

Peaceful Prairie lived up to its name and Lisa was a wonderful host. My highlight was hiking over to the Bluff and meditating with the strong wind, prairie birds, and beautiful sky. Bonus that I could hike right from my campsite.
Very interesting learning that Lisa is helping to restore the native Prairie. She is showing the land lots of love.

Peaceful Prairie is a healing, magical place in a region I adore for its rough landscape. We ended up at a different campsite than originally booked, as Lisa called ahead to let us know we had the option to pick an unbooked site she thought we might enjoy more. She was right!
Lisa is warm and welcoming, and you can tell she cares a lot about her land. The decor at this site is super cute. The canyon area is spacious, and the furniture very accomodating.
It's sheltered, quiet and comfortable here, making it the ideal space for spiritual connection. You have great views of the changing sky and the South Bluff, but running up the hills on either side will afford you a spectacular vista and a phone signal if needed.
There is a little bit of shade in the morning and evening but you do need to be prepared for harsh sun and winds.
The water spigot, porta potty and shower are a short walk away, and while the shower is freezing even in midday heat, these amenities feel luxurious if you usually camp in the backcountry. The porta potty is regularly maintained and wasn't unpleasant at all to use.
This place is a hidden treasure for naturalists as well. Hiking around the campsite, close to the bluff, or just sitting and observing the plant and animal life was delightful even amidst the severe drought plaguing this area. You'll see rabbits, birds, and maybe even a camel spider! We enjoyed cataloguing drought-resistant, sometimes fragrant plants new to our growing mental herbarium.

This is a fantastic site with incredible views of the bluffs and the surrounding land. Lisa is an excellent host. Communicated proactively and made us feel taken care of. The canyon site had some shelter from the wind, which was good because of the storms that rolled through. We loved watching the storms come in and then leave.
