Welcome to SMD Ranch We are located in the Cottonwood mountains tucked in a canyon 8 Miles off of Route 66 in Hackberry Arizona. The location is remote so bring everything you'll need to enjoy the wildlife , peace and quiet. We have 5 campsites to fit almost any type of rig . Any questions please feel free to contact me . There are petroglyphs on the property as well as other locations near by. The land is next to 300,000 acres of state land so plenty of hiking available as well as just walks down a dirt road that has more foot traffic than vehicles .

PERFECT location
This is the PERFECT place to go if you want to be nestled in the mountains, feel safe, beautiful views, Boondocking, and an AMAZING hostess! We will be back and will be spreading the word. I did not even know this beautiful area existed. So PERFECT! We rang in the New Year hiking and looking for quartz and turquoise, it was beautiful! Thank you Donna ❤️

Adapt & overcome!! (w/amazing help)
Arrived later than we anticipated with a tire going flat! Donna was an outstanding host offering tools to change the tire and a jack! Not only that! She had an air compressor available to top off the spare. She really saved us and rose above what I would have expected from a host.

#1-van/tents group site
The site is extremely remote. It would be a great site for tents or small camper / vans. I would not bring a Class A or Class C RV there. Hackberry Road which leads to the site has many miles of rippled gravel that will shake the hell out of your axles and steering, even doing 20-25 mph. We made the mistake of bringing a Class A there, and while Donna is both a wonderful and gracious host, our RV took a beating. If you want to be off the grid for some star gazing, it definitely checks the box.

This place was the perfect end to our honeymoon, Donna met us at the gate and showed us to our site for the night. It was perfect, a really good secluded spot in the middle of her land.

Star Gazing at its BEST!
It's important to connect with Donna (property owner) prior to getting to the property. The sites are unmarked so it's not so easy to find your spot. She can meet you and guide you. Best for fully self-contained camping. The place has NO facilities (no water, no toilet, no shower). The AMAZING star gazing makes up for it 10 folds! This was heaven on earth for us and our dog.

Great spot
Wow what a great spot! It was super quiet and peaceful. I spent the night stoking a fire with a clear dark sky full of skies. Donna was also a fantastic host giving me clear directions and greeting me on arrival along with her friendly doggos.
