Site 4 - In-Ko-Pah Spirit Retreat

Lovely Stay

It was magical spending a night amongst the mountains. The sunset was glorious. Would recommend a night here for peace and quiet in nature.

Site 4 - In-Ko-Pah Spirit Retreat

Windy but fun!

Greg was a great host and made us feel very welcome. He gave us fair warning that it would be windy that day and he wasn't kidding! It was so windy at site #4 that we ended up having to pitch our smaller tent as our larger one wasn't very aerodynamic. But the view was lovely and the 2nd night wasn't nearly as windy. We would definitely stay again and be more prepared for the weather!

Site 3 - In-Ko-Pah Spirit Retreat

First Hipcamp Experience, 10/10!!

In Ko Pah Spirit was absolutely stunning- my group stayed in site #3 - Earth Shrine. Beautiful works of art, quartz cairns, memorials, and a near 360° view surrounded this site. We came here for stargazing, and boy did we get it. The sky was crystal clear and the stars were so bright, we were lucky enough to be camping for a mostly moonless sky. The weather was immaculate, and the hike up to Earth Shrine was gorgeous. The stay itself at was so pleasant - we had very little wind and near perfect temperatures during the day. Night got cold, but as long as you're prepared to layer, it was quite comfortable. It was a pleasure meeting Greg and his pup, Bosco. Greg has such a good vibe and immediately made us feel welcomed and at home. We loved getting to know him and his story, as well as the amazing facts and lore he shared about this site. It's obvious from the moment you meet him that Greg cares so deeply for this place, and you'll just can't help but feel the same way too. We will definitely be coming back - thank you again, Greg! 😄

I had a wonderful stay at casa agave! The cabin is charming and thoughtfully stocked with anything you might need and the nature all around is incredibly beautiful. Greg - the host was very helpful and kind and the dog, cats and chickens were delightful to have around! Thank you !

Site 1 - In-Ko-Pah Spirit Retreat

Beautiful!

Wow, what an incredible property to camp on! We had site number 4 that we were able to drive a Subaru and Tacoma up to and it was stunning. Greg thank you for being a great host! We felt alone up there with amazing views. Would return!

Casa Agave

Mountain living

This was a great place to escape to! I loved that there was a hot water to shower with on the cold nights. I also loved the morning when the sun would rise as well as when it would set. Great place to see the clouds above move and the stars shine bright in the night sky. The only thing I suggest is to bring some extra board games with you for the rainy nights. I will be going back with the kids next time!
