Mountain Outfitter Tent/Platform

We had an amazing time! Host were very polite and quick to respond to messages. Turn on Old Honey farm I believe it says it’s a walking trail but we drove our suburban and did fine. The tent was large, cozy and very warm with the wood stove burning. Definitely would return the property has beautiful views and the creek was so cold and clear just breath taking! The tent does have a foam padding to sleep on and our sleeping bags are thick so it was comfortable for us and the solar power bank was a god send for our phones! We have already recommended this campsite to our friends!

This is by far one of my favorite campgrounds of all time. Shera and her people have put so much work into this place and you can tell. I was on a fishing trip when I booked Shera's place and I was only eating what I catch, unfortunately it was not a good fishing day and I was starving but when I was setting up camp, Shera offered me a bowl of delicious stew that got me thru the nite. Shera was also very nice to my dog. Honestly I cant say enough good things about this remarkable campsite. 10/10

A great place for tent camping. Secluded, very quiet, great night sky, close to some good hiking, and a nice (cold!) stream for soaking the feet. Shera is a very welcoming and friendly host. Stayed 5 nights and will likely return.

the hosts greeted us on arrival and let us know everything about the space. the campsite we chose was right near the peaceful cold creek. lots of shade from the surrounding trees. the outhouse and bathroom worked well for us. the road to their place is very bumpy but very private, right near the beautiful mountains. a nice little campsite with a great view of the sunset and stars!

We had a wonderful couple of nights at Shera’s campsite. It’s a great set up, perfect for star gazing sitting around a fire. The creak nearby was so peaceful, and the hot tub and bbq area were such an added treat! Huge thanks to Shera and Richard for hosting us. And for the coffee!

Peaceful forest retreat

With pets ·

Mountain Outfitter Tent/Platform

I had a truly relaxing and enjoyable stay at Little River Mountain Camp. The property is nestled in a quiet forest, offering beautiful views, fresh mountain air, and the soothing sound of a stream running through the property. It felt private, peaceful, and very rejuvenating. The cedarwood hot tub was a highlight—perfect temperature, tucked among the trees, and with peek-a-boo views of the surrounding mountains. After a dip in the cold stream (yes, cold plunge!), it felt amazing. The tent is rustic yet comfortable, featuring a wood stove that provides a pleasant warmth and a solar outlet for charging devices. There’s a private shared solar shower and outhouse on site, both of which are very clean and well-maintained. My campsite had a picnic table, a fire ring, and everything I needed for a comfortable stay. While there is some light construction on the land, it didn’t interfere with the peaceful atmosphere at all. Shera, the host, was incredibly kind, helpful, and quick to respond. You can tell she cares about the land and wants her guests to have a good experience. This is an excellent spot if you’re looking to disconnect, enjoy nature, and feel refreshed. I’d recommend it and hope to return soon.

This place was beyond exceptional. From Shera being an amazing host and friendly face to all the amenities (shower, hot tub, views, a swimming hole, coffee in the morning, etc.) this place really has it all and more. We came in from a long day of mountain biking at Angel Fire and were able to fully recover because of this space. I HIGHLY recommend this Hipcamp and will be back as soon as I can to Sheras. This is a must camp if you are seeking comfort and relaxation within distance of Taos and more.

I think it’ll be a really beautiful and special place when she’s finished with it but right now it’s not quite what I was expecting. The host was incredibly nice and helpful and welcoming. It was a very quiet place to camp.

We enjoyed our stay in Shera’s land! The camper was a perfect alternative to setting up a full tent site, and it was so peaceful. Our hosts were great, and offered some local hiking options. Would definitely recommend, and if you stay have your morning coffee under the Aspen trees by the stream.

Great campsite - quiet and comfortable! Loved listening to the creek every night as I fell asleep. The outhouse was honestly the nicest I've ever seen and actually smelled great due to the cedar! Shera was lovely, and I'd camp here again.

Shera’s camping locations are easy to access and clearly marked. She communicates as much as needed and provided ample firewood for campfires during our stay. Restroom was clean and well maintained. Her property has a beautiful stream which is a great opportunity to relax after a long drive.

I had a peaceful and healing time on Shera's land. The hosts were great to talk to about local hikes and healing practices. The camp is nicely shaded and cool. Bring bug spray!
