Spoon Station

1 site ¡ RV1 acre ¡ Mesa, AZ
Welcome to sunny Mesa, AZ! We’re a short drive or light rail ride away from several downtown areas with loads of bars, restaurants, and cultural attractions. We’re also 15-60 minutes away from miles and miles of waterways, hiking trails, and outdoor activities. Go for a hike one day and dinner at an upscale restaurant and see a show the next! It’s the best of both worlds. Our property is located in a fairly urban area with neighbors in close quarters. Please be warned that this listing is to park in our side driveway. It’s not the most beautiful camping spot, but it’s a great jumping-off point to explore the Phoenix metro or the nearby Superstition Mountains and waterways.

Geo Dome Campsite, I-17 Access

8 sites ¡ RVs2 acres ¡ Phoenix, AZ
Currently looking for long term winter RV and Vanlife guests to round out our tight little community! No tents. Come visit and see what makes every one who has stayed here fall in love with this amazing little slice of heaven in the desert. My description: This is a convenient spot in the city of Phoenix, but it feels like you are camping in the country. Closest neighbors are 150 feet away. I've got 2.3 acres, 5 minutes to Walmart, movie theater, 100's of dining choices in Norterra shopping complex. You'll be behind tall fence/block wall on a full acre to spread out on. (Bring an extension cord for prime spots if applicable) There is some light highway and minimal residential noise if that matters to you. You will hear birds nesting in our cacti, see tons or dove, finches, numerous species of hummingbirds or even hear some coyotes yipping at nighttime. We are about a 4 minute drive from a nice hiking area. 3 30 amp and 2 50 amp power added September 2022. Full time campsite manager on site now. Laundry has free large capacity machines. Water pressure and quality is great. The campfire has tree shade with table and chairs. Extension cord power (when available). Water hose for water. Septic system with tap at campsite. Quiet generators are fine for summer A/C. If you need 30 or 50 amp power you'll have to park closer to the domes or have an extension. Electric hookups...contact for availability. There is an acre to choose your perfect spot, but power and water might not be exactly where you want it. Please be respectful of the property and all of our neighbors as we are surrounded by residential housing. Please drive slow inside the property and keep the gate closed when not in use as there are coyotes in the area. Please do let us know ahead of time if you are afraid of dogs or have allergies. My manager has a small pup and there are others here depending who is staying. I have perfect drinkable amazing deep-well zero particulate well water. Inside my extra geo dome I have a shower, sink, and toilet. While 40 years old and ugly, they are functional. You are welcome to camp or relax inside the 40 foot dome, BUT THERE ARE NO BEDS OR BEDDING. This Hipcamp listing is for camp and RV sites only, not a bed in a geo dome. Please message with arrival time so we can meet you at the gate.
