Red Daisy Farm

Originally an 80 acre cattle ranch built by a gentleman from Iowa named Thomas Jefferson Rutherford. 
Now a charming, peaceful and beautiful 4 acre flower farm. 
On site, we also host a unique place to stay in our converted grain silos!  We offer guests access to use of the hot tub and all natural, European swimming pond!

Peace of the Plains

Placed directly in front of Meeker and Longs peaks this property was established in 1905 in a truly magical location. The vast open view can feel isolating and peaceful while still being very close to civilization.  A healing center is located on the property with services available at extra cost.

Learn more about this land:

Amazing view of the entire front range. Plains grasses, landscape plants. Bird watching can be fascinating here. I live on the property, the restroom is inside my business that is also on the property.
Located 3 miles outside of small towns it is within 1 hours drive to the mountains, Denver, Pawnee grasslands and multiple reservoirs for fishing and watersports.

Boulder CO restful RV site

We are RVers and would far rather stay on private land than an impacted RV park; we thought others might as well so we decided to share our property.

Learn more about this land:

Private, semi rural property of 1 plus acre to house your RV while traveling or availing local activities; there is a home on the property. Close to Boulder CO and other towns, easy access and quiet place to stay that is not an RV park.  RV must be self contained with a toilet.  We do NOT provide one.  

 Generators may not be used, however we can supply 30 amp for a small fee during hot summer months.  We ask that the AC is off when the RV is unoccupied.  Water as needed but there is NO sewer for dumping.  This is, ideally, a short term space  for seeing the area and visiting people that you know.  The camp spot is on 1 acre behind the house.  You can enter and exit going forward.  Tow car allowed but one vehicle per unit.

Terry Bison Ranch Resort

Terry Bison Ranch has a history all the way back to the 1800's.

 The ranch was once owned by F. E. Warren (The first governor of the state of Wyoming).

 President Teddy Roosevelt was also a guest at the ranch and a picture of him in the main house, hangs on the wall in the Senators Steakhouse.

 For more in depth history

of this amazing ranch, come visit and ride the bison train tour, let your kids take a pony ride, or enjoy a family fun trail ride! 

Learn more about this land:

Terry Bison Ranch Resort is a functioning bison ranch with adventures to explore.  We have a bison train tour that takes you out to feed the bison, a steak house, horseback trail rides,  and plenty of animals to look at.  The dry camping is in the fields surrounding the park.

Bliss Pond reflect the glory of Fall colors.

Rocky Mountain Glamping

A Rocky Mountain Glamping Experience!

*** Bliss Camp awarded Runner-Up for 

Best Glamping in Colorado for 2023 and 2024 ***
2024 provided exceptional weather which enhanced all of our many Glampers' experiences. Temperatures were delightful all the way until October 30. Wildflowers were abundant most of the season, and autumn colors were spectacular for nearly two months.

Bliss Camp is now accepting reservations for our 2025 Glamping season. We will be reopening April 25, weather permitting. 

Due to our popularity reservations often fill up quickly. 

We suggest you make your reservations as much as six months in advance if you are that organized and especially if you have a group to rent the entire camp. At times there are last minute cancelations which allows for last minute openings.

Big news flash: 

Bliss Camp is adding a 12' x 14' Glamping Wall Tent in 2025. We have it in our possession now! This is larger than our Frontier Tent. It will have an early settler / gold miner theme which is fitting since Bliss Canyon may have been the northern most gold mines in Colorado.

The tent will be placed uphill in a private location in the vicinity of the Frontier Tent. It will be situated about 300' from the Frontier Tent so privacy will be maintained for all accommodations. The view of rock formations is spectacular. It will have it's own well-stocked kitchen, private hot shower and propane fire pit for those romantic moments! Oh, did we mention there is flat parking within 30' !

Dot and Byron look forward to greeting our many returning guests and are eager to meet new Glamping adventurers.

Happy Trails and towards the fun!

Dot and Byron

Welcome to Bliss Canyon!

Relax stream side in your private camp overlooking lush nature and towering rock outcroppings. Stroll along a rushing stream or head up challenging Moose Track trail to Balancing Rock. After your day of adventure or kicking back enjoy a hot shower. Share your revelations of the day around the campfire, roast marshmallows, or relish your favorite beverage or special treat as you unwind.

The open air, covered Kitchens have sinks, fresh, potable hot water, kitchenware, gas stove —pots, pans, dishes, utensils, etc, BBQ with side burner, critter-resistant food safe, bear-proof trash can, and picnic table outside. We provide a convenient propane campfire for safety since our climate is dry and often windy. No candles or open flames please.

There are easy trails on property along the lush stream (the original riverbed of the Middle Saint Vrain Stream), fishing or swimming in the pond (no lifeguard on duty), or challenging trails into Roosevelt National Forest from the property. (Ask Hiker Dot for guidance.) Several National Forest access points, where you can enjoy peaceful walks away from crowds, are a short drive.

Bliss Canyon is a spur off of breathtaking, picturesque South Saint Vrain Canyon. Stroll on over to the South or Middle for renowned fly fishing. For climbers, there are over 50 climbs in South Saint Vrain Canyon!

Dark Skies:  If you like to watch the stars and meteor showers, Bliss Canyon is blessed with dark skies with little light from the plains. Bring your telescopes and explore the Universe.

Rocky Mountain National Park, one of the five Crown Jewels of the National Park Service, is nearby. The closest trailhead in RMNP is 10 miles, the next trailhead at Wild Basin entrance to the park is 13 miles, and the Beaver Meadows entrance (main entrance) is 36 miles. Rocky Mountain National Park has breathtaking drives, easy strolls with interpretive signs, and 360 miles of trails. (Advance reservation required for entry 9:00 am to 3:00 pm for main park, or 5:00 am to 6:00 pm for Bear Lake corridor.)

Indian Peaks Wilderness also has several nearby access points and trailheads. Ask Dot for details.

Fall Colors are forecasted to be over the top this year starting in September to late October. Bliss Canyon explodes with color and is a great base camp for Aspen viewing along Peak to Peak Highway, Rocky Mountain National Park and all the surrounding areas.

The famous Fall Elk Rut starts the beginning of September. According to Byron, the Elk Rut is one of the best National Geographic Moments on the Planet! This is a must experience event! We are located near Rocky Mountain National Park which typically provides the best opportunities to view the Rut, as well as other areas near the Park.

During the Fall we provide "Little Buddy" propane heaters for the Gypsy Wagons and the Frontier Tent to help you warm up during cold evenings.

Additionally, with a new Starlink booster we now have internet at all camps.

The charming town of Lyons is 20 minutes away with coffee shops, restaurants, bars, lots of great live music, library with free wifi, and quaint shops*. Also, Spirit Hound Distillery received the award for the #1, Best Whiskey in the World in 2022, hmmm, it might be worth a tasting!

Dot and Byron look forward to hosting you in our spectacular Rocky Mountain Paradise.
