The landowners were super nice. Got me in late. And helped me get parked in the dark. They offered some delicious beef for me and 3 my dogs to buy which helped keep the doggies happy. Nice and private. Great communication. I recommend this spot !

Was grateful for the clear instructions on arriving at Tads land. The views were phenomenal, 350 degrees of mountains and ranch land. Was close to town but not in town. Tad put out comfortable chairs and a clean picnic table for us. Would recommend to friends.

Easy access just outside of Cody, Wyoming. Flat spot with good water and electric just outside Tad and Janie’s home. Nice lane with no traffic for a dog walk. Cows in the field were very interested in our dog. Quiet with a beautiful view.

Rock Creek frontage is a rarity. Undeveloped property with smooth access and good proximity to Red Lodge that is made available for camping -even more rare. View is beautiful.

Today we left another awesome hipcamp. It is situated 5 minutes from Cody WY just down the road from the Cheif Joseph Scenic Highway and Yellowstone. Tad was very kind and answered all our questions. The site was everything that was advertised.

Beautiful spot with an outlook down the valley. Easy access to Yellowstone National Park, and only ~40mins drive from the Cody Rodeo. Camped with a 1-man tent and basic air mattress, would probably suit someone a bit more equipped. Sunrise was beautiful, and I’m sure sunset would have been too if I’d been at the site as it went dark. Steep and rubbly driveway so maybe not best for low clearance 2WD vehicles.

Was an absolutely beautiful place to stay! Was so quiet, peaceful, and the views were amazing! You’re so close to downtown Cody, to mountain biking trails, and we even made the drive to Yellowstone. Would absolutely recommend. Thank you again for a wonderful stay!

Easy enough to find with a little help from Google. Lots of space with lots of big trees. Big time quite only interrupted by bird calls and songs. Friendly host Dan who’ll even set you up with a campfire. Short walk to restroom/showers. Water is hot and facilities are clean. All for a nice price. Thanks Dan. Definitely recommend.

It was a gorgeous property with gorgeous views. The views are definitely unbelievable, and the sunset was gorgeous. However, we brought our two dogs, and I want to mention that the whole area is filled with Foxtails and little burs that love to get stuck in their fur. It was a little cumbersome, getting stuck all over my gear too, but worth it for the gorgeous view. We would hands-down stay here again. It was a little difficult to get to, I would make sure you ask the house for an official address before going! We got lost a little bit and were able to find the location using the information on the stay.

Beautiful and peaceful site under the trees, surrounded by green pasture. We were the only guests, so it felt very private. Nice and clean bathroom with shower. 30 minute ride to Red Lodge, feels like you are away from everything.
