2.5 miles from Red Rocks Amphitheater nestled in the Colorado foothills . We are conveniently located at the trail head at Mathews Winters Park, across the road you can also hike or bike dinosaur ridge. Close to city things, but in the country. Close to activities like hiking , breweries, biking, golf , lakes, restaurants, drag strip, motorcycle track and more. We have 2 yurts, each with queen beds. Drinking water is provided. We have a natural water solar shower, a Porto-potty and a fire pit. We do not have cleaning charges as these are to be self sufficient . Please pick up and dispose of your trash to prevent additional cleaning charges. These Yurts are very popular for folks going to concerts at Red Rocks Amphitheater and need an inexpensive place for a day or two. You can Uber, Lyft or hike to the amphitheater and some folks will hike back, but be aware its in the dark on the way back. Ride shares will pick up by our gate and they have lot to pick you up and and bring you back. Lots of guest come without cars. NOTE: Leave it tidy for the next guest. If you need clean linens , we have sheet and 2 towels packages for $40.00us. Or bring your own. We are close to I-70, and that great access comes with some noise, we do supply ear plugs or you can bring your own headsets, some folks don't even notice it. Please be aware your are staying in Colorado wilderness. We have seen deer ,elk , racoons, owls, eagles, koalas, rattlesnakes, bear, lizards, bobcats, mockingbirds, mountain lions, magpies, doves, coyotes, bull snakes, spiders, moths, . Watch your steps and be aware. Each yurt has an air horn to scare off unwanted guest. Please lock up any foods in your car. Glamping tents set up 2.5 miles from Red Rocks Amphitheater in the Colorado foothills. Close to the city but still in the country. Also close to hiking trails, Bandimere Speedway, Coors Brewery, Thunder Valley motorcycle track, golf course ,lakes, restaurants and more. We have showers and Porto potties ,a fire pit.

I absolutely loved staying here! Sleeping on a super comfortable bed (rather than on a camping mat) while still feeling like I was outdoors was the best! Some people might have a hard time with the freeway noises, but coming from a home near a busy intersection with lots of very loud revving engines, I found it soothing. The proximity to Red Rocks was remarkable; I wouldn’t stay anywhere else next time I’m there for a show!

This was a good place to stay close to Red Rocks. It was close to the highway, but we did not notice the noise at all. We were planning on doing the hike to the amphitheater but chickened out when we saw that the trails were labeled as "difficult." Since we're from sea level and not used to Colorado trails, we decided to Uber. Getting there was quick and easy, getting home was longer and more expensive, but still worth it. I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable staying here as a single female, but it was perfectly safe with someone else. When I booked, it said there was a shower but that changed before I arrived. I recommend bringing water to wash up with, there is still a stall to use for showering that worked just fine.

Great overnight stay for a Red Rocks show! Portapotty was very clean. Easy in and out!

Nice location, poor communication
The location was great! The camp was nice enough - very basic, as advertised, and the port-a-potty was very clean. But, there was no water for drinking, the shower not usable/connected, and the owner did not answer any communications (attempted twice, once before arrival and once after arrival). Based on that alone, I wouldn’t recommend.

Great for a Red Rocks show
A good place to sleep for a Red Rocks show - easy in and out. Brought our own linens, clean port a john. We biked to the show and then walked home. I would probably drive next time but it made for a fun adventure and either way it was great to be so close to the venue.

We went to a red rocks show and it was the perfect place close by to crash. I loved the beauty of the area. Dennis was super nice and a gracious host.
