Camp Stoney Meadows

What an absolute incredible place to stay!! We wish we could have stayed longer but will be sure to come back. From the farm where you can pick your own corn, tomatillos, grapes and other great fruits and veggies, to the wide open farm, and amazing shallow river to be able to cool off in, this place is an all time favorite place to stay. Scott was very nice and helpful, checking in to make sure everything was going well. The kitchen had everything needed along with working toilet that flushed. Again, I can’t express what an amazing and magical place this is. Huge thanks to Scott for letting us stay here. We will be back!!

Beautiful valley. Disconnect from cell phone. Gracious hosts. Adorable and friendly ranch dogs. One of the best off the grid places. $15 per person to visit the hot spring next door for a day pass. Book that thru Kish Creek hip camp. A gem! Thanks Scott

Scott was very welcoming. Camp is very well set up with kitchen, restrooms & shower. All very rustic & charming. Beautiful area. The drive in is long & bumpy but well worth it.

Site 3 - Tent Camp Stoney Meadows

Very peaceful with the convenience of a communal kitchen, showers and a flush toilet. The creek is beautiful and due to its remote location there was only one other couple so we were able to spread out between two other sites. We were awestruck by the stars and were lulled to sleep by the night sounds of crickets and the creek. The raspberries growing both wild and in the garden and were delicious. We also enjoyed plums and grapes. Our host Scott was our hero when we had trouble with our hitch and he brought out tools and grease until we succeeded in hooking it up for our departure. We greatly enjoyed iron canyon reservoir which is stuffed with trout and again there were no other people. We had a lovely time kayaking there. We highly recommend!

Our camping home away from home!

Tent ·

This was our 6th visit to Stoney meadows after the past 3 summers of visiting and as usual, it was absolutely perfect. The hospitality, helpfulness (thank you again for the tire assistance Alex!) the magical and peaceful setting, new friends made, the usual Saturday pizza night, and of course the dogs and the best swimming holes…it’s just our favorite place to continue returning to year after year. See you all next summer!

Absolutely loved our time at Scotts campsite. He was very welcoming and the property was so unique and had was perfect for a family camp trip. He had water jugs throughout the campsite, the bathroom was super clean, and well maintained, and the kitchen had all the utensils and the items you need for a basic cooking. We had the pleasure to joined him on his pizza night and had pizza from his home made pizza oven with other campers and was a great time! We enjoyed the swimming role, which is 5-10 min walk from the campsite and eating grapes from his garden. It was a perfect weekend and we would love to come back sometime soon.

Cozy spot on a river!

20 ft campervan ·

Nora and Scott are incredibly friendly. Camp spots are fairly close together, so keep that in mind. The facilities, including a bathroom, shower, and covered outdoor kitchen were a very nice perk. They also have a nice swimming hole on the river attached to their property. We happened to be there on pizza night and Scott and Nore make the dough and sauce from scratch, so good! They have a number of dogs that roam the ranch to protect their animals, so make sure you're dogs are friendly if you plan to travel with one. Also, not advised if you have a vehicle that's low as the roads are a bit bumpy.

Beautiful and peaceful. Campsite #7 was very spacious and private and they added an extra toilet and spout right by the site which was very handy. Would recommend. Had no problem using Google Maps to find the location.

TRULY A MAGICAL PLACE 💕

With pets ·

Room 2

Scott and Nora have created a magical landscape to explore like you’re a child again. Every part of it consists of beauty and thoughtful intention so you can fully enjoy nature. The Bunkhouse had AC, windows for ventilation and comfy cots! They give you keys to lock your rooms. A mini fridge and microwave are available to you as well. It truly felt like magic being there. We enjoyed the stream directly in front of our bunkhouse. A walk and a few steps down a hill away, is a DARLING swimming hole that we enjoyed - complete with inner tubes and a chair provided by the host. It was absolutely stunning. The shared bathroom, shower and outdoor kitchen was so clean and well kept. This was my first experience using this app and I think I got extremely lucky with finding this place. There were children running around unplugged from technology, playing in the stream, riding ATV’s and they were just as welcoming as the hosts themselves! This may be a no brainer as well, but seeing the sky at night in their open field was probably my favorite part of the stay. I had never seen so many stars in my life. I hope that when I have kids, this little place is still running so I can bring them here to experience the magic I did.

This was such a wonderful place to camp! The property had amazing trails and refreshing watering holes. We tent camped and it was so nice to wake up and fall asleep to the sound of the rushing water. Nora and Scott are also incredibly generous with the garden they have on site. Our breakfast was complimented by the fresh fruit we picked to snack on! We are already planning a longer trip back!

AMAZING!

Tent · Group trip ·

This place is amazing! We stayed in campsite 7 and it was a nice secluded spot next to the water. Other than one other couple we basically had the place to ourselves. Scott was amazing! Gave us a good lay out of what was available to us day one but did check in to make sure we had everything and enjoying his beautiful property on the following days. If you are debating campsites to stay at I would highly recommend this place! If you are debating what campsites to stay at here our top sites would be 1,5,and 7. We have only stayed at site 7 however site 5 has a mini waterfall next to it and site 1 is right next to a nice little swimming spot. Definitely returning, maybe our new yearly tradition!

Site 1 - Tent Camp Stoney Meadows

Wonderful welcoming host, welcomed us immediately and was very informative about their property, a joy to speak to, it's a beautiful property with mountain views. Local animals are friendly dogs, pony, cows, bulls, calves & donkey and some canadian goose on the swimming pond. Host Scott showed us around the property which was an extra bonus and explained the hydro electric power supply used from the river to power everything which makes this camp green energy that sells back to the grid! The veggie garden was open for the seasonal veg and fruit picking and was a treat to walk through and look for good grilling corn. Liked the semi remote location, full amenities, peaceful and relaxing to be at the end of the road next to the national forrest and river. We didnt see deer, bear or cougars but did see bear poop on the trail leading to the larger water hole at the backend of the property leading into tthe national forrest. Beautiful stars at night as well! Very clean campsite with again all the amenities! Thank you so much Nora and Scott!!!

We absolutely loved it and can’t wait to go back! If you love being off grid with a super friendly host, then you’ll love it too. Scott was the sweetest and checked in with us every morning. We unfortunately didn’t get to meet Nora but I heard she’s just as kind. We felt safe with the dogs watching over the property day and night, and they even tolerated our high energy puppy in training. The kids enjoyed swimming in the watering holes and creek to cool off as did the rest of us! The only downside was coming back to all the emails and texts that I truly didn’t miss!

This was an excellent place to camp! We loved the creek right next to the site — it was wider than I expected and so peaceful. The swimming hole was absolutely amazing, and the bathrooms were very clean. The shared kitchen with a microwave and fridge was a huge plus, and pizza night was a lot of fun — a great chance to meet and chat with other campers. The little pond with the pedal boat was a big hit with the kids, and all the campsites were nicely shaded, which made our stay even more comfortable. The picnic tables looked newer and were very convenient, and the wild blackberries around the sites were delicious!

Better the second time.

Room 2

It felt like coming home. The room is just as cozy and welcoming as I remembered—clean, peaceful, and thoughtfully set up with everything you need to relax. There’s something about waking up here that makes you feel grounded and refreshed. The whole site has that rare kind of magic—wide skies, quiet mornings, and the kind of stillness that invites you to slow down and breathe. Whether you’re here to hike, write, pray, or just unplug, this place wraps around you like a warm blanket. Returning here reminded me why I came the first time: it’s not just a place to stay—it’s a place to be. Can’t wait for visit number three!

Just as great as expected!

This property was a great retreat, and exactly as described on platform and by reviewers. Very clean, beautifully maintained property with a creek that had some nearby swimming holes. As a solo female traveler, I felt safe.

Site 1 - Tent Camp Stoney Meadows

Stoney Meadows is truly a small slice of heaven tucked away in Big Bend. I spent 3 nights at Site 7. The site: - At the far end of the campground area, so very private, just 1 neighboring site but they are a good distance away - Private creek access right at the site - Perfect trees to set up a hammock - Firepit and picnic table available - 30 second walk to a very clean, flushable toilet - 4 free-roaming dogs, all very sweet and friendly. The two Pyrenees, Polo and Lobo even took turns keeping me company until I put out my fire and went to bed lol! Amenities: - In the general campground area, there is the cabins, shower, additional toilet, and kitchen. - There is potable water, a fridge, propane grills, dishes, and other cooking essentials available in the kitchen - Firewood bundles available for $10, cash only. - Starlink wifi is available at the house, very fast! The host, Scott, is also just a gem. He’s such a kind, older man who clearly pours his heart into his ranch. You can feel and see how much he loves it. He also has some great stories and recommendations around the area. He’s warm, funny, and genuinely a joy to talk to. He also checked in on me a few times, which I appreciated as a female solo camper. Even so, I felt completely safe both at my site and throughout the entire property! This was hands down the best hipcamp I’ve stayed at. I am already planning another trip back very soon. I highly recommend Stoney Meadows, don’t hesitate, you wont regret it!!

This is the kind of place you don't want to ruin by encouraging more people to come! Wonderful place for those who are willing to slow down and enjoy a chill vibe. Scott and Nora are so amazingly kind and welcoming. Bunk room was a blessing in a crazy storm. Good for very well behaved dogs. bring your favorite pizza toppings for Saturday nights. Tasty water, super well stocked shared kitchen. So grateful for this experience.
