If you want to stay on the west side of Rocky Mountain National Park, this is where you want to be.

Well, it’s actually the only place you can be. Timber Creek is the lone campground in the area, but there’s plenty of room for all to stay. It has a primo location right by the Colorado River, where you can see fly fishermen teasing the water with their lines, hoping to snag a Rainbow Trout for dinner. And since you’ll be in the heart of one of the greatest national parks in America, you’ll never be at a loss for something epic to do.

Boulder Chicken Ranch

15 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents2 acres · Boulder, CO

Welcome to our charming 2-acre farm nestled in East Boulder with a view of Long’s Peak. Just minutes from town - near walking trails, shopping, & restaurants. A great pitstop on your way to or from the mountains. We offer Tintypes services here at the ranch, original 1850's photography - portraits made of pure silver on metal plates. We have a 4 meter Glamping tent complete with a queen sized bed, rocking chairs, and a wood burning stove - as well as spots in the meadow for RVs, vans and tents. We can handle RVs around 40 feet in TOTAL LENGTH - truck and trailer. It’s a big field, but a narrow, winding and steep ramp to get in and out. If you are a nervous driver, perhaps choose another place to rest your head. If you are a great driver, you can go even bigger. Prior to your exit, open the gate!! Don't hesitate while going up the driveway - if you stop on your way up, you may not get going again. We have a community fire ring with a big pile of free burn wood, though the big logs are getting few and far between; having your own firewood is recommended. Bring an ax or saw. If it's windy, please skip the fire. We have well water to offer up by the house, but I wouldn’t drink it without purification… makes for a great outdoor shower. We have fresh eggs! The chickens free range during the day, so please keep an eye on your dogs… leash if necessary. Our gals won’t run away. Venmo code at the coop for your convenience. THE GOOD: *Easy in and out location *Most affordable rates in all of Boulder. *Beautiful view of the Longs Peak. *Lots of sun *Fresh eggs!!! *5 day maximum stay THE BAD: *Daytime road noise (pretend ocean waves??). *Limited shade. *Total RV length 40 feet - Truck AND Trailer - due to a steep and winding entrance and exit. *Good Morning Roosters *Midsummer Mosquitoes * 5 day max stay Please reach out with any questions you may have. I’ll do my level best to help in any way I can. Safe travels! Sincerely, Patrick

Mr. Bill W. – August 2024 Just what we needed. Very cool place with awesome hosts. The hot soak was amazing! Birds, squirrels, and a chipmunk were our camping buddies. Incredibly quiet at night. We will definitely be back for camping AND more of the amazing spring water. Eleah M. – July 2024 My son and I have camped here three times now. We love it and always have the most awesome neighbors. The hosts Gwen and Matt are so kind and helpful! Stacy H. – June 2024 This experience by far exceeded my expectations. The hosts were so kind and gracious, doing all they could to ensure that I felt comfortable and taken care of. Really down to the earth sweet humans. The property was gorgeous! I chose to do the natural spring water soak and that was an incredible experience. I would highly recommend it. Don’t hesitate to book this property, everything about it was perfect! Kerry B. – May 2024 Great stay! We booked last minute and Matthew was quick to respond. Showed us to our site and even chopped us some wood!
