Great experience
The original Burning Man spirit is well and alive at Verde Goats. Richard is a welcoming host. He even took me to swim at a nearby river. No shower, and a basic restroom, but a beautiful spot to set your tent. Don’t miss Richard’s metal art and his friendly dogs and goats.

Absolutely charming and fun!
I had such a great time here! The animals and art were super fun! The location is central to some good trails, beautiful swimming or paddling spots but it’s also so beautiful and peaceful that it’s hard to want to leave the campground! Richard, the host even took me on a quad ride down to the river from the property! I highly recommend this spot and will be back.

It was a unique campsite and we loved all the quirks associated with the place. The place had all the essentials for camping. One of our favorite thing about the campsite was all the animals.There was goats, ducks and guard dogs. The dogs are really friendly and we felt safe in the gated area. We recommend this spot to anyone who wants a unique camping experience.

Cool spot, Richard is an eccentric guy, had a nice time chatting with him. The animals were cool, everyone was friendly, we had a good time.

Had an amazing night here. Wish we could have stayed longer. The baby goats were so adorable and Zeus gave my partner a good, muddy hug to welcome her. 💚 We loved every minute here and can’t wait to come back again!

Rural Arizona at its finest! Lots of interesting old vehicles being recycled as living quarters and many big metal sculptures scattered around the property which is also home to many dogs, chickens, turkeys, ducks etc It was a very peaceful spot for parking my RV overnight
