Stellar Mountain Escape

Beats the busy campgrounds we had a nice quiet stay in my 15 ft campernvan. Very beautiful view of moon and the stars at night. Over all we would recommend staying here if your looking for a nice quiet spot. The camp spots are close to each other though so not completely alone. Beautiful spot though.

Our stay at Stellar Mountain Escape was serene (as the campsite is named). The directions to get to the camp were provided by the host and were precise. The weather dampened outdoor activities, it was wet and dreary the whole time beginning our first night there. It was a little more secluded than we anticipated but easy enough to zip in town to get a warm drink and buy a game to play. The campsite was set up nicely with chairs, a firepit with a slide out grill and a picnic table. We were greeted by a lovely German shepherd sitting majestically as drove past the host’s driveway!

Nice option for last minute camping near the poudre/mishawaka given that the established campgrounds book up way in advance but overpriced considering the only amenities are a portapotty, table, and fire pit.

Nice relatively secluded campsite with free firewood. The host was great at communicating directions and everything else regarding the reservation.

Whispering Pines Site #2

This site served its purpose for my overnight stay, providing a place to park my vehicle, have dinner, and get some rest. The beautiful land and trees were a highlight, but I found the overall surroundings didn’t quite match my expectations. One aspect I wish had been communicated better was the lack of a bathroom, as I expected one to be available. Thankfully, I came somewhat prepared for that. Overall, while there were some drawbacks, I appreciate the opportunity to experience the site.

Very friendly hosts. Once checked in, we were pretty much left alone on their beautiful and private property. They gave us free firewood and some recommendations for local events.

PEACEFUL

12 ft travel trailer ·

If your soul desires a peaceful time in the mountains amongst lovely smelling pine trees look no further. We pulled our camper into campsite #1 which in my opinion is the best spot. We took several walks around the property with our two pups and they were stimulated and engaged by all the scents provided by nature. One of them enjoyed eating deer jelly beans🤣. To our observation we saw no signs of predator animals. The neighbor’s dog did not bother us. All in all we enjoyed our stay. I would definitely recommend 4wheel drive for the climb on the dirt road during rainy or snowy weather.

Kimberly's property is beautiful and we're grateful whenever someone chooses to host and share their views and land with us when we're literal strangers, but so appreciative. To the stay: we had an amazing time, we were booking super last minute so it was nice to get something that met all our criteria: pets allowed, a toilet on-site, able to bring two cars and two tents. Spots 1 and 5 are down to the right when you pull in but still far enough away from each other. On night two, the campers in site 5 arrived and we could hear them talking but we were both respectful of sound traveling and tried to not disturb each other. One thing, we were actually going to book site 5 but Hipcamp would only let us select up to one car for that site, so we went with site 1, which Hipcamp allowed us to select two cars for. But our neighbors on site 5 ended up having like three or more cars over there at one point. Spots 2-4 are much closer together at the top of the hill but still nice. Our site had a picnic table, fire pit, and a fairly level surface for at least one tent. Our second tent was on a little more of a decline but manageable. Site 1 was probably the closest to the porta potty (which was tight for tall people but clean minus expected bugs in the wilderness). Overall, beautiful view and property, site was semi close to the house, roosters in the morning, and dogs at night but nothing ear plugs can't fix. And we saw many deer and turkeys!

Site was relatively private, in view of barn/house but view towards the woods was gorgeous. Had some very cute deer relatives. Directions were very clear.

Site #5 is down the hill and more remote. I got our Casita RV trailer down the hill, turned around and leveled - but you'd better bring your A-game for trailer backing! We loved the secluded site and quiet atmosphere. It was perfect for a last-minute weekend getaway from the city. The fire pan was a nice touch. Recommended.

Great secluded location.

5 ft travel trailer ·

On a Thursday night in July, we were the only campers across the five sites here. It was so quiet and peaceful, and an unexpected experience. With Kimberly‘s directions, the location was super easy to find. While we were told many times that we would lose Service going up the canyon, we actually ended up having service on the site itself, which was nice. Site 5, where we stayed was super level for our travel trailer and pop up. It’s a fairly tight drive down into the sites, so be prepared to , engage in some minimal off-road driving. Plenty of room to turn around a small trailer but would not recommend a very large trailer on site 5. We would definitely recommend the location and stay here again when we are in the area.

Overall, I enjoyed my stay here - I would recommend site 1 or 5 if you’re looking for privacy. The location is quiet and wooded, with a great view of the sky - on a clear night the sky here is breathtaking! The provided porta potty is in pretty rough shape, but overall it was a beautiful view in a peaceful setting.

Kimberly's land was so beautiful and peaceful. Her instructions for finding the property and the campsite were perfect. Found it without issue. The site was nice and shaded and private. It was clean and level and perfect for tent or car camping. I will definitely be back!

There was not too much close to the site (as in other campers). Not sure if that was how the set up was or what but it made the stay nice. Very understanding of time you check in, we showed up around 9 pm and there was not an issue. If you plan on being out and about all day and just need a place to crash for the night this is perfect.

We had a lovely time at Kimberly’s RV camp spot. My dad and grandpa were visiting and the trailer had all the amenities needed for the perfect weekend getaway. We even brought our pup.

Not very private but a decent site

We were at site 1. It wasn’t as private as I expected and hoped from reading other reviews. You can definitely see and hear the other campsites. It also wasn’t as level ground as I would have hoped but it wasn’t terrible. There were 1000s of moths everywhere at the time we were there but it wasn’t too bothersome. Other than that we had a nice stay and would mostly recommend it. Everyone nearby that night was respectful of not being noisy. Price was good.

Amazing spot! Will be returning. Some friends and I stayed here so that we would be close to Horsetooth Reservoir and it was perfect. The site is secluded enough from the neighbors and the views are very beautiful. Hope to stay here again soon!

West Oaks Site #4

This is a beautiful, wooded area with great scenery. We even had a doe with her two little fawns walk right by us while we were eating dinner inside (not venison 😉). We came here to get away from the heat (elevation is about 7,000 feet), and while it was still quite warm at times, it was at least 8 degrees cooler than the lower elevations. We also had plenty of shade all day and some nice breezes. For this space (site #4), if you go past the tree line where it is more private, there’s not much room to turn around. Check it out before you go in! We had to back our 20-foot trailer out, carefully so it wouldn’t be scratched by dead tree limbs. Also, once others arrived at site #3, we didn’t have the privacy and space between sites that we prefer. Everyone was courteous of the close proximity during our stay, but more space between sites would be nice. It would be great for groups using multiple sites!

Great spot if you’re looking for something more private than the reserved spots along 14. 17 miles from the Mish, not 7. Great view and she’s a very helpful and friendly host
