We very much enjoyed our stay here. It was very easy to park the trailer and very very minimal we had to do to level the trailer. Access to water and electricity was awesome. And a very short walk to the river to go fishing. Will definitely stay here again. Kayla and here husband were amazing hosts.

We loved staying here! It was nice and secluded. Didn’t have any interactions with anybody else. Beautiful views, sunsets, and starry skies. Loved all of the special touches that have been added…the firepit location, the swings and gazebo, the lights that came on at night. Highly recommend!

Awesome property with an amazing host! The history in this area is incredible and it’s the perfect home base to get to both sides of the national monument. Do yourself a favor and do the Harper’s Corner hike while you’re here.
The location was super easy access to everything in the area and the gated fence made us feel safe at night. Epic sunsets and incredible stargazing. Would definitely stay here again for multiple nights if we have time to check out more of the area!

We had an amazing time camping at Raspberry Ranch! My fiancé, our friends, and I spent the weekend enjoying the incredible views.
On Saturday, we visited Moon Lake, which was less than a 10-minute drive away. The water felt great, and the short distance allowed us to have more time to play in the sun!
The host was incredibly kind and provided water and electricity for our trailer. We absolutely plan on going back, and we all highly recommend this place!

The property was very nice. Backed straight up to the river with incredible views. Easy in and out. Very close to dinosaur national monument as well.

I really enjoyed my time at wild wolf. It was a nice flat area to bring my small camper. There is a small fire ring fir when there isn't fire restrictions. There is a couple hammock type swing chairs that are really nice to relax in with a great view.

Nice spot in Jensen and close to dinosaur National Monument. The site was nice and being so close to the river was great. The water was chilly but refreshing. My dog loved swimming. The river sand was super soft. All in all, we had an excellent time and would love to come back. Kayla is super helpful and responsive. There was power and water at the cottonwood site, power was 120 volt extension cord.

Kayla communicated well when we had to come late. Signs guide you to your spot. Great location by the river! Will definitely try to stay here if we’re ever in the area again!

It was lovely to be right next to the river and Kayla and Wyatt and their daughter Hayzlee were excellent hosts. The first day there was quite a bit of beach in front of our camper and our daughters loved playing in it. Then the water came up and there wasn’t as much left by the end, but that’s the nature of being on a river!
The Riverside campsite is pretty tricky to get into with a trailer… Just a heads up depending on the size rig you have and your navigating in tight spaces skills!
Kayla and Hayzlee and watched our dog for us two different days so we could go into the monument unencumbered.
Thanks so much!

We absolutely loved this property! The kids had a blast on the deck, and there was plenty of space for them and our dog to run around and play. The firepit was a great touch for cozy evenings, and we really enjoyed exploring some of the nearby trails with our ATV. Communication with the host was excellent, and everything was smooth from start to finish. Highly recommended—we’ll definitely be staying here again! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Amazing spot! Beautiful, quiet, and peaceful. The beaches and sand bars were very fun to explore in kayaks, which Rebecca rents out for a reasonable price. We came in late May, and the river water level was fine, a good challenge for upstream travel but navigable. Rebecca was good with providing answers to my questions but had some communication challenges because it's a bit off the grid, so you'd likely want questions answered up front. It's a dream spot if you appreciate unconventional camping on the gorgeous Green River.

The wilderness, the river and lake, the mountains, the wildlife and the people here are next level. You owe it to yourself to camp here. You won’t regret it.

Very easy to find nice private backyard that backs up to the green river. Heard birds singing all night long by the river and then got to photograph a beautiful California quail on my way out this morning. Kayla was very responsive and tried to anticipate everything I might need.

Peaceful camping spot! It was closer to the house than I thought, but the positioning of the spot made it completely private with our trailer and truck. Never noticed any noise from the home. The beach access was amazingly beautiful. Water was slow running so it would be great to paddle out onto. Bugs were not an issue like we expected. Kayla's communications were helpful and polite. Will stay here again on future trips to Dino!
