We loved Luciano's place! It is on the primitive side, so it was perfect for stargazing! Both him and his wife were extremely helpful and welcoming. The location is perfect for our trip as we were going through to Nevada and wanted to see the Grand Canyon which was about an hour away. We look forward to visiting again in the future!

Spent one night on Luciano's peaceful and beautiful property. Luciano met us on arrival and gave us a quick tour before letting us settle in. A picnic table and a fire pit and a nice piece of level ground surrounded by trees provided the perfect place to camp and unwind after a long day of driving. And the night sky was one of the most brilliant we've ever seen. Highly recommend this site and the host!

Luciano and his wife were incredibly accommodating..we were able to set up anywhere. The gave us a fire pit. There is a picnic table and canopy were helpful..just off the 64. Real close to Williams, grand canyon entrance straight north..we were on motorcycles,and had no issues navigating the road in. Communication was excellent.

The site we were directed to use was not as private as we would have liked, but it is truly surrounded by wilderness.

This was my first time trying a Hipcamp! I really enjoyed my stay on Luciano’s land! He and his partner were kind and welcoming. I was traveling alone with my dog and I felt very safe. I had some difficulty finding the location initially and Luciano called me and was patient and kind while we figured it out. (I recommend using Google maps, not Apple Maps - Google maps got me right to the location and Luciano’s instructions were great.) When I realized I was in the wrong area, Luciano even offered alternatives when we weren’t sure if I would make it. He went above and beyond as a host. They offered a composting toilet, tent stakes, and showed me where everything was upon arrival. They even let me know what types of noises to expect and when things typically happened in the area so I would feel good. They respected my privacy but were available if I needed anything. I felt safe, welcome, and relaxed. My doggo had a nice time too! Luciano has a beautiful doggie on his property and there were no issues with the dogs reacting to each other or anything like that. Gas station <10 minutes thay has water and necessities. 🏕️ would recommend! Great stay. Nice folks. Beautiful stars ✨

What a beautiful place to get away from it all! This is a beautiful property in a very quiet yet easy-to-access location. There's lots of space to spread out and pitch your tent on soft, level ground. Host provides many amenities upon request such as a canopy over the picnic table and a small porta potty.

Luciano and his wife were extremely kind and accommodating to us. They set out a small portable stove, set up a toilet for us and a canopy over the picnic table for escape from the sun because it was warm that weekend, all before we even arrived! They also let us use their fire pit with a grill top which was super kind. It was quiet and secluded. There is a hill close by for a nice morning hike although we didn’t have a chance to hike it. Bring plenty of water because it gets warm during the day in the summer!
