We would come out and camp on weekends and soon built a small cabin from reclaimed materials. This barn style cabin is available to our tent camper when the weather is inclement so you can relax outside your tent...The west side opens up onto a deck with picnic table to provide sun/rain shad
In 2012 we were given a 12x20 ft addition to a mobile home that formed the basis of "the cottage" that we lived in "little house on the prairie" style for 2 years while we built our home from trees my husband cut down and processed on his portable sawmill. It took 2 years to build our home with the help of our 15 year old grandson and his friend who were taking a construction technology class for their homeschooling education. Other friends and family helped on occasion and we were finally able to move in just before Christmas 2014.
In 2019 we started with Hipcamp providing rustic campsites and our little cottage. in 2021 our son moved into the cottage which made it unavailable for campers so this past year we got another bright idea and the "Tree House" was conceived and built! Come enjoy the incredible view from this little house in the trees! Queen sized bed, (you provide the bedding), camp chef propane stove (outdoors) and tiny wood burning stove inside to take off the morning chill!
We sold the sawmill to our architect who is building his own home in Wyoming. What do we do with the large awning we put over the sawmill? How about another small cabin? This is a very rustic cabin with no real amenities other than two bed platforms where you must provide your mattress and sleeping bags. The bunk has a unique ladder and the views of Pikes Peak are awesome!
Enjoy the gentle humming of the alpaca's as they greet you in the mornings or whenever. Our 9 alpaca's are friendly and very curious. The boys enjoy showing their stuff whenever we have guests! Come and get acquainted. We also have two guard dogs; 3 cats and 4 kitties--soon to be leaving; one rooster, 13 chickens. The sounds of the birds, cows in the meadow, early morning visits from the local deer and antelope herds; a star studded night sky while the trees whisper you to sleep at night . Incredible views of Pikes Peak, Longs Peak and Mount Evans on a clear day. Beautiful Colorado Sunrises and Sunsets! We hope for green pastures and wildflowers this spring/summer! Relax and read; play a few rounds of horse shoes; take a nice long walk around the perimeter of the property and get your miles in...
The treehouse was amazing! Beautiful area with a window overlooking such a beautiful landscape. The alpacas and dogs were so friendly. Overall just an amazing experience. Would highly recommend staying here!
Roann and Jim were so sweet!! I brought my family out to the farm for my wife’s birthday and they couldn’t be more welcoming. Both cabins were great and the alpacas were the icing on the cake!! We’ll definitely be back!!
We loved our time at the farm! The alpacas were very friendly - we all got some alpaca kisses and they were such a big hit with my son.
Jim and Roann were wonderful hosts - it rained quite heavily and they were always checking on us to make sure we were safe and dry. We also got to visit their farm store and bought some handmade goodies, including a book by Jim! This was our first camping trip since we moved to CO about couple months ago and it couldn’t have been better. Our son already said that we need to come back and I am very sure we will!
Thank you Jim and Roann for sharing your farm with us! We will be back 😊
We had an amazing time here, enjoying the peace and quiet, shooting stars, and the sweet alpacas company! Roann was very communicative and welcoming! We got farm fresh eggs, soaked up the sun, and had no complaints!
Our stay here was excellent and Roann & Jim were incredibly gracious hosts! They gave us a helpful welcome bag of water and snacks and even offered us a piece of fruit from their garden! Delicious! The air in the campsite was great, water hose was close by, the road driving into the property was well maintained and the alpacas were a funny bunch! The views were awesome too
