Billy The Kid Tent – Glamp Like an Outlaw on 15 Private Acres
Saddle up for a one-of-a-kind desert getaway! The Billy The Kid Tent is a fully outfitted canvas retreat set on ten fenced acres of wide-open high desert—no other campers, just you, the mountains, and the silence of the wild.
The tent is spacious enough to stand, stretch, and truly unwind. Inside, you'll find a real queen-size bed with fresh linens, extra pillows, a cowhide blanket for chilly nights, propane heater, solar-powered lighting for cozy evenings. There's even a private indoor loo, so no wandering out into the night.
Need to stay connected? We’ve got a solar power system so you can charge your phone, laptop, or camera right from the tent.
Outside, relax at your private picnic table, pizza oven and grill onsite or fire up the included firewood at the fire pit (season permitting), or warm up inside with the wood-burning stove with a cooking top. And when night falls, enjoy some of the clearest stargazing skies around.
🪵 Fire-friendly (when permitted)
🐾 Pets welcome
🐴 Horse boarding available – just give us a heads-up
☕ Extras include: fresh ranch coffee, egg sandwiches made with ranch eggs, and a bit of good ol’ outlaw West reading material to enjoy by the fire.
And that view? It'll set you back a few paces—it still does that to us.
Free parking is available just steps from the tent. When you arrive, give a friendly honk at the front gate and we’ll come greet you with a smile.
Come experience the spirit of the Old West—right here where it actually happened. Did we tell ya Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid actually robbed a bank here in town :)

We arrived after dark with our trailer and got a bit lost- Warren rescued us!! So grateful he answered his phone. Wonderful to wake up to a herd of cattle who escaped from a neighboring ranch. Our 9# chihuahua mix thought she was a ranch dog; she was off leash exploring and was in heaven with all the smells. A fun first stop on our 3 week road trip.

We enjoyed our one-night stay at Mountain View Hipcamp. We were the only ones staying for the night which made for a nice quiet evening. This is a wedding venue also so there are clean restrooms, a water spigot, fire pit with wood. Nice stop away from loud traffic noise. Really enjoyed it.

What a fabulous respite! Gracious host, beautiful country. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Loved the sound of coyotes, star-gazing, stunning silence, all in a well-appointed canvas tent. The bed was so comfortable and I was charmed to boil water for cowboy coffee on the wood stove in the morning. Road-tripping so a short one night stay, but I hope I get a chance to return!

We only spent one night at Star Gaze Ranch, but it was well worth it! It was a lovely setup with beautiful scenery. The stars were beautiful at night, and the sunrise was wonderful as well. The hosts thought of everything to make us comfortable for our stay and we're very responsive. We brought our dog and 2 year old who both also had a great time looking for bugs and playing in the dirt! The cowboy coffee was superb as well. Thank you so much for making our stay one of a kind!
