There is a fully stocked kitchen area with 3 burner stove, Weber BBQ, pots and dishes, potable water, table and chairs alongside the Love Gulch stream that runs all summer. There are also two large solar showers and two composting toilets. Solar lights and no electricity keeps the vibe mellow and relaxing. Tipis rent from May through October, and you can read the business’ reviews on Airbnb and Hipcamp. This has developed into a destination camping experience and we’ve hosted people just travelling through as well as multi-generational families on vacation, with lots of repeat visitors. There’s enough space to hold larger events such as concerts, yoga retreats or Dark Sky viewing parties, and sufficient demand to expand the business with additional tipis or the two yurts currently stored in the barn. Tipis are booked solid every weekend in the summer with people from the Front Range, Utah and world travelers looking for a unique experience. Note: an experienced cleaner has been trained on operation of the tipi and interior rentals. This is a unique lifestyle property with significant current income production as well as the potential for a variety of new businesses.
