Cactus Rose Ranch is 11 acres in the north Scottsdale/ Rio Verde area of Arizona. This special area is surrounded by the Tonto National forest on the north & east, the McDowell Mountain park on the south, Fraisfield Preserve on the west. Several mountain trails nearby, of varied challenge. It is home to 360' awesome mountain views (sometimes purple, golden, or pink too), scenic desert vistas, and the best sunrises, sunsets, and starry nights in the world! Plenty of places nearby to hike, horseback ride, mountain bike, and explore Enjoy staying on our desert ranch located in rural North Scottsdale/ Rio Verde AZ! Several restaurants near, and 30-45 minutes into Scottsdale and all they have to offer! (NO on site BATHROOM FACILITIES...NO TENT CAMPERS unless you are self contained) The perfect retreat for those that like to see Arizona off the beaten path. Check out stellar mountain views, spectacular desert sunrises, sunsets, and star studded night skies! Wildlife and beautiful friendly birds. Listen to the quietness...and perhaps a night time coyote unique serenade. Located near some of the best hiking, biking, and horseback riding, in the state. Please note that we are down about 1/2 mile of dirt road which sometimes might be a bit challenging for XL 40 ft 5th wheels and other very low riding RVs. Most RVs have no issues. (Sometimes, the road might be too narrow for 2 vehicles... so someone will need to pull over in the plentiful wider areas... pls give the other vehicle a desert rural ranch friendly thank you "wave".) ENJOY! Get that "Way-Out-West" feeling. Wrap yourself in western fun. Take time for enjoying a morning cup of coffee and taking in the mountain views. Wi-Fi for computer and TV. Your comfort is important. This is a rural area and you will be serenaded by coyotes, mules, and roosters. There are no street lights so the stars are magnificent at night. There is about a mile of dirt road to get to the house, and it is reachable by most vehicles ( but maybe not a low-riding sports car). There are desert dirt pathways so bring appropriate footwear. We are nearby some awesome hiking, mountain biking, horse trail riding, world-class golf course, exceptional places to eat, unique shopping. Great fun!

The Cactus Rose Ranch is a beautiful and peaceful property in lovely North Scottsdale. Our stay was very enjoyable and the sunsets were spectacular. Sally met us promptly and showed us the sites to choose from. Our site was nice and the amenities of electric/water/sewer were great. We would definitely come stay here again if we visit the Phoenix/Scottsdale area.

The road you choose
JUST A HEADS-UP GPS took me back N 156th St off of E Rio Verde Dr. It is a dirt road going directly to E Montgomery Rd where the camp site is located. The first part of 156th St is extremely hard on a camper. It is covered in potholes and deep valleys to go through. The better way we found after a couple of days is to use N 152nd St instead. This road will intersect with E Dixileta Dr which will take you over to N 156th St. However, this intersection is after the very difficult section of N 156th St. It is still dirt but much easier on a suspension. The camp itself was fine for a few nights stay. It is out in the desert but still close to Cave Creek and Scottsdale. When we found the new and better path it was great for visits to those towns for what they have to offer. The hookups are in good working order and thy have a laundry on site. The area is being built up a little and the animal are no longer there. But it is still a good value if you want to camp in the desert.
