Mountain view

Soak up the view during your stay.
If you have mobility issues, don't stay here. When you reach down to enter by pulling back the cow hide flaps and step in (over a board, keeps animals out), we hope you say, "Oh, nice!" In the winter, we have electric heat (*NOTE, when it is 30 degrees at night, the fireplace heater maintains the room at 52 degrees). Your feet are firm on a stained cement floor. The log bed sits higher and the flat screen was raised to view perfectly from the bed. The frig is two steps from the bed.

The space
We are a farm. This is NOT a real tent (actually is a metal building with 3 inch rigid foam in the walls), but it does have 3 front flaps (2 are cow hides), hanging over your front door. This cannot be locked. We are 25 mins. from Boise for a weekend. YES, you get to use our outhouse 30 ft. away. We are an eclectic glamping option for travelers to save money and Idaho residents who need a mini staycation. We have 11 rentals. You can meet our 3 goats, pet bunnies, feed chickens, quail, a horse, or a donkey. Sit by your campfire. Actually, unwind and read a book or watch a movie.

Guest access
You will have private quarters, make sure to lower your head when you enter. There is no bathroom or running water. You will have to walk 30 feet to the outhouse. You can use our heated shower 20 ft. away to your right, or 4 outdoor showers to your left. The outdoor showers are convenient for brushing your teeth, washing your hands and face before bed. (towels are provided)

The outhouse is shared by all guests who stay in a camper, tent, or wagon. It has a metal flip sign "Open and Closed". We provide Lysol spray, hand sanitizer, femine hygiene items, and of course, toilet paper. The light is always on with country music on the radio. We added a small child (1-3 year-old) toilet insert seat.

Other things to note
If you have mobility issues, don't rent this unit. We only allow 1 dog ($20 fee), no cats. The Ole RV Park is a community. People are arriving/departing and some living long-term on the 2.3 acre property. You will meet our Alpine goat "Kate Brown" who is milked at 9 AM and 600 pm every day. You can try milking. Just ask. The milk is kept fresh and cold in a brown mini frig. Free-range chickens will follow you. Our 4 horses are Orion, Dutchess (Dusti born 6/18th!), and Red Cloud. Jenny is our donkey. We have a second 2 acre property on Lucky Lane, a Tiny Home Village. (4 TH's, No free range animals there)

Neighborhood highlights

The Ole RV Park is a community. We have 11 rentals so people are arriving/departing and some living long-term on the 2.3 acre property. You will meet our Alpine goat "Kate Brown" who is milked at 9 AM and 530 pm everyday, and her best goat friend Feebee. You can try milking, just ask. The milk is kept fresh and cold in a brown mini frig. Free range chickens and roosters will follow you. We have 26 new chickens that we hatched from an egg. They live in a coop at the rear of the property with our Silkie roosters (Ebony and Ivory). Our 4 horses are Orion, MamaLady, Dutchess, and Red Cloud. Our donkey is named Jenny. By request, we give basic horse instruction. We have domestic quail near the Cowboy Bunkhouse and meat bunnies in a special spot. Lastly, we have an incredible Boxer named Rooster Cogburn who is trained on command, and he adores kids and people of all ages. Check out our second 2 acre property nearby on Lucky Lane. We have 2 tiny houses there on airbnb; the Cube and the Hardy House (sleeps 7!). We have some unfinished tiny houses there and 2 RV spaces for $25 a night.
