Escape the hustle and bustle of the city! Located at an elevation of 6476 feet above sea level, on an 80-acre horse ranch in the heart of Elizabeth Colorado, home to the PCRA Rodeo the Elizabeth Stampede (since 1966). This magical getaway was built by hand over 4 years, with love, sweat, and tears... and with help from some special friends. Treehouse Magic was built around PAL, a towering Ponderosa Pine Tree, that is allowed the room to grow and sway gently in the breeze. This wonderful space is magical in every way! .300 sq. feet with an 1100 sq. foot deck...

When you first arrive at Treehouse Magic you will pull underneath the deck which also serves as a carport! Enjoy the game room with a ping pong table, darts and Giant Jenga, before you make your way up to the treehouse!

Remember to "Mind Your Noodle" when walking up the stairs!.. Welcome to the outdoor deck spaces. On the East side, enjoy a propane fire pit with 4-rocking chairs, and an outdoor kitchen with a pellet grill and smoker. On the West side a table with 3 point umbrella, a hanging hammock and the Cabana Room!! The Cabana room is an outdoor/indoor space with lounge chairs, a couch, CordaRoy bean bag (that opens into a bed topper for the couch), rolling table, pop-up tent, cots, a movie screen and a smart Roku projector to stream movies! Upon entering the treehouse you will be transported to another world! Stand at the door for a moment...look at the green green grass and look up and see the treehouse within the treehouse! Magical Gnomes jump in and out of (handpainted worlds) and watch over the treehouse and its guests, spreading their magical love wherever they go!! The main section of the treehouse has the gathering room (with a smart Roku TV and PS4 game station. The couch can pull out to create another sleeping space. The kitchen has a 2-burner propane stove and small refrigerator and everything you may need for cooking a meal. Complimentary coffee is provided by Dancing Jaguar Coffee. 4-generation coffee farmers in Honduras, who package and label it right here in Elizabeth! It is truly amazing!! The bathroom is truly a place of wonder... the whole off-grid system has many scratching their head with a big smile on their face... "ah-ha", shower in the horse trough with a rain faucet and take some time to "ponder" while using the composting toilet and squatty potty! Up the steep staircase, you will land at the drawing-room, where you can write a letter or color in the many activity and drawing books. Take notice of the "mouse house" at your feet and the many worker ants that were vital to our success! Through the barn door, into the private sleeping quarters. A 14" gel foam, full mattress will ensure a wonderful rest. There is also a couch that opens to another full bed. Across the drive to the East enjoy the outdoor horseshoes and corn hole area and tire swing, as well as another eating and relaxing space. If you are bringing your 4-legged best friend/family member, there is a 3/4 acre fenced-in yard. You can allow them to run off-leash in your company. Also, 2 more hammocks and a table and chairs. If you prefer to cook with good ole charcoal, there is a grill and charcoal available. Enjoy a hot tea, coffee or hot chocolate at the Relax Shack at the top of the South 40 acres, with views of the mountains and the roaming Horses, Llamas, and Alpacas...A MUST EXPERIENCE! \*\*Running water unavailable Dec-April.

Rocky Mountain National Park embodies the Colorado spirit perfectly. If you want to get out into nature with other avid outdoors types, few parks are more suited for you. Though the altitude can be tricky, the views are worth the effort.

Currently, there are three campgrounds available during the summer season, with two on TBD status. Rocky Mountain campsites open at the end of May and close around late September. The three available campsites are all on a reservation system. Longs Peak, which is still TBD, is the only first-come, first-served camping option. You can RV camp in Rocky Mountain, though there are no RV-specific sites. If you can’t get a spot in the park during peak season, the best camping near Rocky Mountain National Park is in Estes Park, CO, or any US Forest Service land to the east.
