One glancing look at Crescent Moon Cabin, and you’ll immediately be spellbound by its decor; the cobble-stone exterior welcoming you with an otherwise soft, gentle ease. A spacious interior, the cabin is able to house upwards of twenty-five campers and their warranted baggage. And, better yet, Crescent Moon Cabin is available for reservation up to 180-days in advance. This lovely abode should be booked well in advance.

Nearby activities include: bird watching, hiking, river rafting or tubing, kayaking, fishing, swimming, stargazing, and rockhounding. This area conforms to the Arizona Dark Sky initiative, and while we are not dark-sky certified, we've had several guests compliment us on our beautiful skys. When it comes to rockhounding, or amateur geology, this is a fantastic area for exploration and study.

Hawks Hideaway is a natural and secluded spot located directly adjacent to the state-maintained Verde River Greenway. This means you may encounter wildlife and pests associated with being in such close connection to nature. Hawks Hideaway is next to many miles of wilderness. You may see or encounter wildlife of all kinds, most are harmless, some are dangerous. It is your responsibility to know the difference. Be prepared to tuck your food away and bring ample protection from the insects. You are responsible for your own safety and are camping here at you own risk.
