Creature comforts

Enjoy the comforts of home at some sites—including flush toilets, showers, and a kitchen.

We are a Full Grass, 6-acre campground at the base of Rabbit Mountain. The Little Thompson River runs through the property and is wonderful to take a dip in. Carter Lake is only a 5-minute drive away. 20 Minutes away from Longmont Colorado is far enough away that you can escape from the city but close enough to be able to run into town if you need anything. As long as you are by your post, we don't care how you park, pull in, back in, pull through, we are easy going. Be aware this is a Rustic experience.

Site 8 - Parrish Ranch Campground

We stayed at site 8, 9 & 12. Absolutely beautiful area covered with trees and a perfect campfire in the center for all of us to enjoy. Kimberly was an amazing host and very easy to get in contact with! We will definitely be back!

GREAT OUTING

EVERYTHING HERE WAS GREAT. KIM WAS A GOOD HOST. NO ONE ELSE EXCEPT 2 OTHER CAMPERS. WATER AND ELECTRICAL HOOKUPS. NOTHING FANCY JUST A NICE SETTING MAINTAINED BY A SINGLE LADY.

Site 8 - Parrish Ranch Campground

Highly disappointing

Not worth the price. Only stayed one night out of my two booked. There’s one small shared fire pit which is awkward, especially for introverts. The bathrooms are really gross. There’s actually not any real “WiFi”, you’ll maybe get some internet access for a minute or so before it dies and you have to reconnect. The wind whips around like crazy through that valley and made for rough tent camping for our kids. The only redeeming part of this place is the little creek that has the crawdads, the kids did at least enjoy that. Otherwise I very much do not recommend.

Site 10 - Parrish Ranch Campground

I highly recommend this campground, but with some gentle "know what you're getting into" caveats. It's a lovely location that feels far from civilization (no cell reception, no city lights, etc), down a long dirt road and through some cattle gates barely wide enough to fit my RV through (and I was glad to have not tried to pass anyone going the other way on those roads!) The campground amenities are functional but old. There does not appear to be a dump station. Check with the camp host about which specific site you choose if you have a longer RV or multiple slideouts, as sites vary in length and width and aren't entirely level. It's a great place to meet fellow campers who are also looking for that kind of far-from-civilization experience, particularly around the communal fire pit.

Amazing area! Even when people are there still really quiet and relaxing! Great spot for families. Thanks to the host for being amazing and understanding.

This is a a fantastic camping experience if you’re looking for quiet in a unique and beautiful setting! Loved the history and nostalgia of this place! So fun to explore and just relax and enjoy natures!
