Jack's Canyon Camping and Climbing Area

In
Coconino National Forest
1 site · RV, Tent

Considered by some to be the best sport climbing in the whole country, Jack’s Canyon is characterized by steep, highly pocketed, sandstone/limestone cliffs that range from wildly overhanging to vertical.

Almost 300 routes for a practically unlimited climbing fix. And it gets better—free, dispersed camping right on the rim of the canyon. This place is very lightly used, there’s a vault toilet, and the most amazing sunrises you’ve ever seen. Bring your climbing gear and lots food and water, and you’ll be good to go for days on end.

Sacred Springs

6 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents8 acres · Lake Montezuma, AZ
A Sanctuary for Nature, History, and Wildlife Welcome to Sacred Springs, a tranquil retreat perched 60 feet above the confluence of Beaver Creek. This eight-acre haven lies within a sacred riparian corridor, offering a profound connection to nature, history, and wildlife. Positioned between Montezuma Castle National Monument and Montezuma Well, Sacred Springs invites you to reconnect with yourself and the ancient beauty surrounding you. A Wildlife and Bird Sanctuary At Sacred Springs, you’re immersed in a thriving ecosystem: River otters, beavers, and endangered fish grace our pristine waters. Deer, raccoons, bobcats, and coyotes roam freely, alongside occasional elk, coatimundi, or mountain lions. Birdwatchers can marvel at Black Hawks, falcons, eagles, ravens, and countless migratory species. This is a sanctuary alive with the rhythms of nature, where life flows seamlessly between the seasons. Witness Echoes of the Past The land at Sacred Springs holds stories of prehistoric cliff-dwelling communities who farmed and thrived here. From our campsites, you’ll see and hear the highway which traces this ancient corridor’s path, a living reminder of those who once traversed this historical route. The Spirit of Sacred Springs Your journey begins as you enter this sacred river valley. A drive through desert vistas leads you along a primitive road to our serene oasis. From panoramic views atop the plateau to the soothing waters below, Sacred Springs offers a retreat like no other. Relax in a hammock by the creek. Wander trails that wind through ancient landscapes. Marvel at sunsets painting the sky with vivid colors. Let the sound of the creek ground you in the timeless rhythms of the earth. A Place of Reverence and Care Sacred Springs is a space for beauty, renewal, and mindfulness. Steep cliffs and rugged terrain remind visitors to tread lightly and stay on marked trails. Each step is an opportunity to honor the land and the life it sustains. A Central Gateway to Adventure Sacred Springs is perfectly located near key attractions: Sedona Wolf Sanctuary (0.2 miles), Montezuma Castle (7 miles), Sedona/Village of Oak Creek (17 miles), and the Grand Canyon (130 miles). Step into the timeless beauty of Sacred Springs—your sanctuary awaits.

Rural Ranch & Petting Farm

5 sites · RVs, Tents5 acres · Cornville, AZ
Harmony Acres is a small, relaxed family farm in the high desert near the red rocks of Sedona, AZ. We love to host nature and animal loving people that want a taste of country life. Our guests often become our good friends. We have the friendliest farm animals that you can meet and greet, and you can help around the farm if you want to participate or learn. Our sunsets and night star-gazing are just spectacular and we're enough off the beaten path that there's no crowds or traffic to deal with, but you are close to dining and area attractions. This is a quiet, rural neighborhood and a peaceful farm that borders the National Forest for easy hiking and few neighbors. The farm animals do cluck, crow, whinny, neigh, baa, bleat, squeal, and oink at various times, including early morning. There is one mile of a somewhat bumpy gravel road with hills to reach our neighborhood, so please make sure you are ready for that and have adequate towing power. The nearest services and dining are 5 minutes away. We are about 25-30 minutes to Sedona, the Village of Oak Creek, and the popular red rock hiking sites. There are many wineries and dining right down the road to enjoy. 1 hour to Flagstaff, 2 hours to Phoenix. Come enjoy a taste of rural Arizona!
