Whiterock Conservancy
whiterockconservancy.org
Whiterock Conservancy is 5,500 public acres along the scenic Middle Raccoon River Valley near CoonRapids. You can choose from over 40 miles of single track mountain bike trails or more than 20 miles of trails tailored for horse riding, but of course, all of those trails are open for hiking as well. While you are here, plan to fish from any of the 10 fully stocked ponds or schedule a guided ATV ride through the lush savannas, rolling pastures, wetlands, riverside bluffs and native prairies that make up Whiterock Conservancy. Another great way to tour the scenic conservancy is down the Middle Raccoon River in a kayak or canoe. Stay for a few days in any of the local RV, rustic or tent campgrounds in the area.

About the host
Hosted by Amber Abang and Gene Scalf

Hi! My name is Amber and I was born and raised in Coon Rapids. My dad was even mayor! Twice! After 6 years away, I chose to bring my 3 boys back *home*.
I am primarily a stay at home momma to my 5 year old. I also have 18 & 20 year old boys, but they only need me when they need clean clothes or food! HAHA I’m also boudoir photographer, I DJ weddings or big events once in a while and can even throw a wild karaoke party.
I LOVE Coon Rapids, so when I chose to get this apartment for my photography studio, I thought it would be great to share it on VRBO when I don’t have any scheduled photo shoots!
Why they chose this property
Downtown Coon Rapids is the heart of our little town. You’ll find plenty of shopping and dining options.
When it’s HOT outside, we LOVE going to our amazing aquatic center then stopping to get our favorite dairy free, gluten free, sugar free & kosher soft serve ice cream from Nature Amill. I’m not sure what sorcery is used to make it (Carrie makes the soft serve mix HOMEMADE!) but it’s DELISH! There’s also a ton of walking or biking trails around Coon Rapids!
When there’s snow on the ground, there are some AWESOME sledding hills by the high school!
When it’s beautiful outside, there are miles and miles of walking and biking trails around Coon Rapids.
