The Bus at Needle Rock

Come explore quiet Colorado country in our totally renovated school bus. My friend converted it to a "skoolie" in the 80’s and lived in it for years in the mountains. After moving it here to Crawford, we’ve been hard at work with a full remodel. It is still a rustic retreat, but it features running hot and cold water, electricity, and a composting toilet. You won’t forget the peaceful surroundings of this unique getaway, 30 minutes from the north rim of the Black Canyon.

The Solargon

This is a perfect spot for solo travelers or couples looking for a quiet, off the beaten path place to get away from it all.
