The property was absolutely beautiful and Brian was very polite and accommodating! I highly recommend Jug Springs for anyone visiting the Gypsum Hills who wants to experience camping in the Great Plains.

Very nice place just off the Red Hills Scenic Byway (US 160). You are a stone's throw from the highway, but it is very quiet at night! Brian also offers a lot more than just the camping and the tour -- wish I had known about farm fresh eggs and beef before I loaded up for my trip!

The site was very pretty and the host went above and beyond! It is next to a scenic byway but i was not woken up at night by traffic noise. Sunset here is particularly lovely!

This is a very primitive but beautiful site. I found it to be a nice surprise and would definitely visit again. Also there is a great place to relax in a hammock if you bring one.

Quiet puff road camp
Easy in and out location for our off road set up. Quiet at night even though you are close to the road. Found a shaded area to camp which helped with the 105 degree heat.
