Weekend Trip to The Views at Gateway

It was a beautiful spot, the cabin was nice. However, I was disappointed and left kind of at a disadvantage, because according to the description, there was supposed to be potable water on-site! There was not, There was also supposed to be electricity! There was not, did not see the bathroom pit either. The description indicated there would be a trundle bed, which there was, with one mattress on the upper part, no secondary mattress. The host was supposed to meet us on-site and never showed up. Luckily, we came prepared for some things. Had an air mattress to make up the difference. However, we shortered ourselves on water as we expected to have potable water on-site. Aside from the misrepresentation, it was a beautiful sight. And we did enjoy our stay.

Loved the rustic vibes of the site with quite a few farm animals to play with. Danny was super accommodating and had shared clear navigation directions to reach. It was a fun little trip for us with beautiful views very close to the Arches National Park.

Beautifully set tipis and campground. Excellent, detailed accouterments. Danny is warm and helpful and fun to be around. The distant area is serene and stunning. Local neighborhood is a bit noisy.

Jenny and Jake were so very welcoming to my two children and me. Jenny took us on a trail ride we all loved! My children enjoyed visiting with the animals and helping with some ranch chores. The cabin Jake built is magical - so very unique with all the added touches. There’s room for a couple families to sleep in it so we will be back with our friends! Thank you, Jenny and Jake.

Beautiful private camp space with super friendly and helpful host. Stayed one night on our way through to Utah and wish we could've spent another. Cabin was cozy with camp cooking amenities. There was even a telescope for stargazing. We got a great view of the full moon. Great place to stay for couples or small groups.

I loved staying at this little spot - it was close to the river which my dogs absolutely loved! The views were gorgeous and sitting by the campfire watching the cliffs change color was therapy! We stayed inside the little hut on the property but I think next time I will pitch a tent to enjoy the breeze as the hut got warm at night! The property was very easy to find and get to. Would love to go back one day to get sometime off the grid.

Such a great stay and highly recommend! As someone who travels solo, it’s so nice to find stays that make me feel safe. Danny is such a kind host and is a big contribution to why I felt so safe. Ringo & the animals were fun to be there and made the stay so unique. Teepees we’re set up great, felt cozy, and the art on them- you’ll have to ask Danny about, it’s beautiful. If youre looking for a stay that will fill your heart, experience nature, and have access to amenities- this is it!!

The warmest welcome I’ve ever gotten at a Hipcamp! My son and I were on night 9 of a 10 day trip and exhausted, and it was so great to have such a comfortable and warm place to stay. The cabin itself is so unique, and you can see how much love went into building it. It My kiddo loved playing with and meeting the animals. Only wish we could’ve stayed longer!

The host Jody was great. Made sure I had what it needed. Beautiful views, right on the river, solid walls for cold fall nights. She made sure I had a heater. Did a ton of fishing and exploring. Felt like you had the entire canyon to yourself. Loved it... so did my pup. Thanks!
