Stayed a few nights on this property and it never disappoints. Close enough to town so it isn’t inconvenient but secluded to make you feel in touch with nature.

Anson's place was AMAZING! It had plenty of space for our camper and loved having a nice big firepit with tons of firefood and feeling secluded without many other people around. The lake and views are breathtaking and we loved the farm tour and hearing the story about the property. We enjoyed the eggs and sprouts as well and thought that was such a great touch. Highly recommend for a quick getaway from the city.

Our evening at Vermillion Hill was absolute magic. I had hosted a brand dinner on the property to showcase gear made by a client I represent at an Outdoor PR agency. Anson let us tour the property the week of our event before our rental day to ensure that we had everything we needed before the dinner took place later that week. I can't wait to visit again!

Loved the space and the exclusivity! Kids had a blast exploring and nibbling on apples from the orchard. The fire pit was large and inviting! Very peaceful and easy to get to. Would love to come again!!

What a lovely little spot on a working orchard / farm. Great shade with plenty of picnic tables and a port o john. We loved the fire pit with plenty of wood for burning.
The lake is super nice but we couldn’t find an easy way to access it for paddling or fishing which was a bit of a bummer for the price. But, plenty of room for my dogs to play, and overall just a lovely little spot.

Lakeside Apple Orchard
We had a fantastic weekend here. It’s a beautiful property with great views! This is definitely a campsite I’d recommend, especially for a group looking to get together. There were plenty of picnic tables and a big, beautiful fire pit with lots of seating. There were twinkle lights hanging from the trees which really added to the beauty of the place in the evenings.
For our first camping trip in a long time, it was perfect, especially since we were just 5-10 minutes from various stores. The fishing was also great—my husband caught a bunch of bass!
I did expect the grass to be a bit more maintained. There was a lot of tall grass, and a tick got on my husband. Being right next to the lake, we had to deal with a bunch of bugs and mosquitoes. Those things are inevitable in nature of course, but we hadn’t thought about how much worse it would be, being so close to a lake.
The only other issue we had was that the porta potties were pretty gross. Since it’s a private campsite, I thought they’d be better maintained, but they are porta potties after all.
Overall, it was a great weekend. The hosts were wonderful and gave us plenty of privacy! I would definitely recommend this spot!

Awesome spot! The site has a vibe at night with plenty of space for dining and sharing good stories by the fire. Spectacular views at sunrise. Pups loved all the birds and sounds of nature. Highly recommend!

The views were beautiful with lots of birdsong, big cottonwood trees and very peaceful . … as we happened to be the only ones there!
It had rained the night before so some areas were muddy but no problem finding a flat area to park our camper van. Mosquitoes at dusk close to the reservoir.
The area was easy to find and we recommend.

We stopped for the night on our cross country trip. It was excellent, Anson was quick to respond to any questions, place was well kept and stunning. We left wishing we could have stayed longer!

Except the restroom and water supply the rest was good.
Restroom was terrible we went twice to the Walmart
Restrooms.
There was no water supply at the camping area.

We had a wonderful stay and would recommend it to anyone looking for a lower-altitude
Campground that's away from the city, but close enough of a drive for emergencies. For example our tent broke and our air mattress got hole so bad we couldn't fix them. Thankfully Walmart was only 7 minutes away and we were able to get replacements. The owners were nice enough to let us throw our old tent and mattress in their dumpster. The grounds were breath taking. They had string lights that were hanging in the tent area which gave it a nice
ambiance. The view of the mountains and lake were incredible! 10/10

This was our first time using hipcamp and to be fair, I think the service itself is just not for us. We are big fans of secluded camping and off the reservation type vibes and this unfortunately wasn't that. There was an older couple walking their dogs who wandered into our site twice (not sure who they were) and then later, three more people walked by with their dogs, one who wandered into our site. We had leashed our dog per the listing instructions and were just sort of waiting there for the dog to leave when they told us we should just let ours off leash because it would be easier. I said I didn't know that was allowed and asked if they were the hosts and they said yes (I wasn't sure who they were because no one introduced themselves & there has been another couple by earlier) so we let the dogs meet and they left. Later that day and all the next day we experienced a farm worker driving through the site or right by the site on a tractor or 4x4 doing work.
The site itself was beautiful. We loved the fire pit, benches and lights and the trash cans were a nice touch. It took a long time to hear back from the hosts that we could use our SUP board on the lake but once we got approval we decided against it. If you don't mind being in the back yard of a home (directly in site) and having people walking and driving the path next to you, then it's the perfect spot. We just prefer a more secluded, private experience.

Beautiful property, with a great view of the mountains! It was nice to have plenty of tables/seating, great fire pit, fun solar lighting and plenty of beautiful birds for the interested eye. Thanks for sharing Anson!

Beautiful site. Good amenities with beautiful view! Fairy lights automatically come on at night which was one of our favorite parts! Host was generous and accessible when needed. Huge fire pit! Only unexpected thing was I thought photos slightly deceiving because it’s basically in a farm backyard.

Beautiful property! You can pay extra for fire wood and pay extra to go out on the lake. Very nice place to camp.

Anson was a terrific and welcoming host! The view of the mountains was great, beautiful spot and plenty of privacy. It was dark enough to enjoy the stars and fishing was a blast! It’s also close to Estes Park and Ft. Collins.

We loved camping on this beautiful camp site: the host was really friendly and communicated everything well. It was by far one of the prettiest places I’ve ever stayed.

This is a gorgeous property with views of Long’s Peak in the distance. We camped in the back of my F150, but the camp area is flat and would easily provide space for 1 or 2 tents in the shade of a massive Cottonwood tree. A large fire pit is setup with several log seats around it. A break in the cloud cover offered beautiful star gazing last night. The lake next to the campsite had cattails and lots of aquatic life. We could hear the fish jumping. Anson was extremely responsive to our needs and a gracious host. We will be telling friends to visit and be heading back in the near future.

Anson and his fiancé, Shannon, hosted an amazing experience. Both were so kind and sociable we got to learn a lot about the future of this site and what they have planned for it. The campfire was set up beautifully with plenty of room for a group of friends, bathrooms were brand new and super clean, there is a little general store being built where you’ll be able to purchase fresh produce from local farmers and other things you’d need while camping and I cannot wait to come back and see that finished. The site is rich next to (if not practically in) the apple orchard and Anson showed us how to get the best ones to snack on. The property is gated and felt incredibly safe, close to a town with groceries and more if you do need anything on your trip. T-Mobile gets 5G here, unsure for other service providers. Would definitely recommend staying here to friends and we will be back to see the general store finished!
