Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2024.

Our family has resided on this magnificent property for over 20 years. In the 1950s, before the home was built, our land was known as "the point." Lovers used to drive onto the property, park at the end of the lot which overlooks the eastern plains, and... you know... We live on 6.5 acres of stunning forested land located 1000 feet above downtown Boulder. Our property rests on a peninsula with views of the white-capped peaks to the west and the city lights to the east. The property feels far away from the bustle of city life, yet it is only an eight-minute drive to the heart of downtown Boulder's historic shopping district and ten minutes from the University of Colorado, Boulder. Vista Tranquila, the name given to our property by its previous owners, has trails to meander, picnic tables, horseshoes, swings hanging from the trees, a competitive-level trampoline, benches with views, and hammocks. The communal food prep area has a gas grill, a table for food prep, and a seating area. We request that guests pack out all trash. Since we do not provide stoves, pans, utensils, or cleanup facilities, please bring paper towels to wipe off your stoves, pans, dishes, and utensils. A well-maintained portable flush toilet is provided in a tall tent near the main residence. A spigot can be found with fresh well water on the back side of the main residence. We do not offer showers. However, the Boulder Recreation Center (a 10-minute drive) offers showers and other facilities for a small fee. You can enjoy a historic mining town experience with fine dining and live bluegrass/ folk music at the town of Gold Hill which is less than 20 minutes up our canyon. Kayakers, climbers, hikers, and cyclists (mountain, road, and gravel) will have an outdoor playground within a very short drive or right outside our door. World-class climbing located at Eldorado Canyon State Park is only a 25-minute drive. If you seek bigger peaks beyond Boulder Mountain Parks, the Indian Peaks Wilderness and Rocky Mountain National Park are a gorgeous 45-minute drive.

Loved the view and ease of the location. Although we didn’t use any of the available amenities they had tons to keep your attention. Jennifer was super welcoming and so nice, we could have talked for hours! Would definitely recommend staying here, just wish we could have stayed longer.

Just a few minutes from Peal Street

Jennifer & David were lovely. Would definitely stay here again. Just a few minutes from Peal Street in downtown Bolder, with great views and a professional trampoline.

Got in late and left early in the morning so I did not spend a lot of time there but the host Jennifer was amazing! We chatted for a while and she gave us some spots to check out while we were in town. The bathroom was very clean and I felt safe. Highly recommend!

Willow's Roost

Our stay while at Willow’s Roost was lovely! The pictures do justice to the real deal, the hosts are very friendly, the toilet is very practical. No showers or anywhere to brush your teeth… but it’s part of the camping experience. Overall I would definitely recommend for you to disconnect from society and reconnect with nature at this place!

Mountain Vista!

What a great spot just outside of Boulder. Our camper van fit perfectly and everything was just as described. There was a great bench for drinking coffee in the AM. Jennifer and David were very accommodating to us out of towners!!
