This was the best site I've ever camped at and can't recommend it enough! You're all to yourself but still nearby other sites. The town, as well as Scottsbluff NM and Chimney Rock, are close by. Lisa was an excellent host, wish we could've talked longer! Make sure you're well prepared for the weather...the wind swept through the canyon just right and snapped our tent. Will definitely look for this place again the next time I come out!

This land is gorgeous and we felt so lucky to camp there. We decided to camp last minute on our cross country road trip back home to Idaho and it happened to be my birthday. The sunset was incredible and the prairie was gorgeous. Be prepared for the wind!

Three Little Birds is for smaller rigs. This camper was able to unhitch a trailer and park his cart in this site.

This was a quiet and peaceful campground with stunning scenery. Lisa was very helpful, providing detailed directions to the campsite. It was a short drive into Gering and Scott’s Bluff Monument. This was a wonderful place to stay that is off the beaten path.

This is the Three Little Birds site, and is less spacious than the others. It's a back in or pull in site.

Wow, it was raining HARD when we were driving towards the Peaceful Prairie location and the road condition concerned Lisa. She contacted us right away about getting into our spot and settled. Through the hip camp site/app and LIsa's guidance, we found our spot just fine and had a nice evening in the drizzle. Woke up to some beautiful fog and singing birds. The road does get a little greasy with that kind of rain, but we did fine.

Camping at Lisa’s was perfect for the night. Super private, amazing crazy beautiful views of Scott’s Bluff NM from your tent/camper, and easy access to trash, water, bathroom :) Lisa was super friendly and responsive (and greeted me at the site), and finding the site was really easy

We spent two peaceful nights at the Cozy Cove campsite at Peaceful Prairie in July 2025. The campsite itself is true to its name - cozy. It is just several minutes to town, but feels like you are a world away with the prairie to yourself. Lisa provides a trash can, two tables, and two firepits, and firewood all immediately at the campsite itself, giving you a sense of being alone in the wilderness while still having the comforts of an established campground- truly the best of both worlds! Lisa was so friendly and kind. I would definitely recommend Peaceful Prairie and the Cozy Cove site in particular for the ultimate prairie camping experience! 🙂

Fantastic views at 3 Little Birds campsite! Very dusty drive in, but the directions sent by Lisa were clear and easy to follow. Love the cooling outdoor shower after the hot day!
