This location is in Colorado City, AZ, which is known for polygamy and has been in the news often.  Next door is an old school building where, in 1953, the polygamist men and women were rounded up and arrested in a famous raid.  (At the time it was called Short Creek.)  During that raid, the man who was the prophet at the time was staying on this very property.  We are respectful to the rich culture and history here.

Mini-Petting Farm - Tent Site
My friends and I were camping for the first time and staying with Christine made the experience so much more memorable than it ever could have been otherwise! She and her husband made us feel completely at home, completely safe, and completely protected. They help us set up our tent the first night, and taught us how to light our first fire. They were the most gracious and helpful hosts I’ve ever stayed with, who went out of their way to feel welcome. The amenities in the place were working perfectly, and the animals on the farm absolutely adorable! My friends and I will always remember this stay with complete fondness.

I had a great stay. Lovely views and it didn't feel like an intrusion on the hosts. I have a 29 foot trailer with slide out. Plenty of space and I had my own entrance around the back of the property. RV Tip: Bee's Marketplace down the road has a free RV dump site. Would stay again. The Arizona strip is gorgeous!

Lovely Little Zoo-Cation!
What an absolutely lovely place to set up camp! Christine is wonderful and very accommodating. All of the animals are so sweet and love all of the love! If you are an animal lover, this is the place for you! I slept next to Amigo, the mini dwarf horse, had a lovely fire and got alkaline spring water just right up the road! Quaint little town not far from Zion. I took the back roads by the sand dunes, which was awesome!

Farm Camping with Red Rock views
Wonderful stay in proximity of many outdoor activities. Local grocery store and eats just minutes drive away. Scenic red rock canyon views from the campsite were amazing! Check in and directions were simple. The exterior spiral staircase was a cool feature to access the bathroom. Christine is very kind and provides a local’s guide to help explore and learn about the area. I’ll miss the experience and the fun loving animals.

Great stay - wonderful host!
Christine was great, we knocked on the door, she showed us where to camp, the water, electrical outlets at the front of the house. And she even provided towels for the shower in case we didn't bring our own! The mini horse was shy but a sweetheart. The donkey and sheep are lovable and like being pet. The town has a huge grocery store that you can get whatever you need there. I will definitely be coming back when i travel the numerous national parks in the area.
