π² Why They Slept In The Backyard
βΊ It wasnβt a marital spat, it was the accidental start of your new favorite escape
Picture this: It's Friday afternoon. Your shoulders carry the weight of the week, your mind is still racing with unfinished tasks, and your soul is desperately signaling for a pause button. You crave the stillness of nature, the luxury of escape, but the thought of airports, long drives, and planning makes you sink deeper into your chair.
What if paradise was just minutes away?
Chris and Wendy Jeub understand that yearning better than most. As parents to 16 children (yes, you read that correctly), these Monument locals have earned their expertise in chaos management and the precious value of peace and quiet. Chris, entrepreneur and former teacher, discovered something unexpected.
Their journey to creating Monument Glamping began in 2019, while renovating their master bedroom, when the couple temporarily moved into a canvas tent in their backyard. What started as a makeshift solution became a revelation. Instead of "roughing it," they found themselves enchanted by the whisper of wind through trees, the brilliant canopy of stars, and the profound stillness that existed just steps from their front door.
This backyard epiphany has blossomed into something extraordinary. Forget everything you think you know about camping. Here, king-sized beds with premium linens replace sleeping bags. Climate control eliminates weather worries. Accommodations include a private hot tub where you can soak under the stars, surrounded by the peaceful sounds of nature.
The magic of Monument Glamping isn't just in its amenities; it's in its atmosphere. Chris and Wendy maintain a strict "sanctuary policy" that protects your mental space.
Mention this article when booking to receive a complimentary bottle of their homemade wine or kombucha. Because sometimes the most extraordinary escapes aren't found after a long journey, they're discovered just around the corner.

(For the curious: Chris also mentors landowners through his "Your Land is Gold" community, sharing how they transformed their property into both sanctuary and legacy to create your own income.)
