We could not have asked for a better place to stay!
The RV spot is tucked behind Zach’s house beside a little creek, with electricity and a peaceful, private feel. It was the perfect home base for us. It is only about 20 minutes from Denver, minutes from the Colorado School of Mines and its fantastic museum, and there are dump stations and a Camping World store very close by. And if you want an amazing meal, El Tequileño Family Mexican Restaurant is just minutes away. Great food and enormous portions!
But what really makes this place special is Zach. He is a kind and genuine person. He gave us our privacy, never once made us feel like we were in his way, and went out of his way to accommodate us. You really could not ask for a better host.
And then there are the animals. Mama the dog kept her space at first, but once she realized we are dog people we made great friends. We would have gladly had more visits from her. Helen the chicken is vision impaired, but seemed perfectly content in her little world sitting under her favorite tree during the day.
We left knowing we will be back. We come to the area every year for the fossil shows, and we have found our place to stay. If you are considering booking this spot, do it. You will be very glad you did.
