Solitude & beauty for people & dog

28 ft travel trailer · With pets

Our first Hip camp. Best private-commercial (not a state or Fed park} we have ever visited. Liked it so much we added a day. Beautiful views. Quiet. And being a 1-site HipCamp we were all alone. Zach the host was very responsive. Loved letting the dog have freedom to run his "zoomies" around the camp site. From this site we did Capitol Reef, Burr Trail Grill, Anasazi State Park, Fishlake Natl. Forest and the beautiful alpine lake, Million $ highway 12, Escalate and Torrey. Chuckwagon store and deli were great.

Tranquility with amenities.

25 ft pop-up camper

It was so peaceful, like being wholly off-grid yet having RV hookups! The night sky was epic without light pollution. There was a small amount of road noise in the late afternoon and morning, but we were in a tent trailer, and it didn't bother us. We highly recommend visiting Road to The Sun Ranch.

Nice private and quiet spot, no road noise and easy to get into. Great spot if you have a dog. Our cattle-dog loved being off leash and catching a frisbee. Plenty of flexibility on how you want to orient your RV.
