Richard's property is eclectic and fun to wander. He met Mr a the gate and I was immediately introduced to two wonderful livestock dogs. Once we met, they were my friends and guardians as I wandered the property. Richard is the kindest man and shared lots of stories. The property is full of fun art from past burning man ventures. I think this guy could build anything you could imagine. There are goats, ducks, and a green house where he grows good own vegetables. He and a friend are planning on growling micro greens in a contraption they built. This spot was a lot of fun and the perfect place to spend time and relax.
If you are not into being in a chill atmosphere, animals and some duck poop, them stay clear. But if you want to experience a fun piece of property then this is the place. Make sure you get to know Richard and ask for a tour. You won't regret the experience.

Our time at Richards land was a great experience. The art around the property was really cool to look at, the tent sites were all flat and spaced out well, and we even got to use his fire pit to have a bonfire. There were ducks, a turkey, the friendly yard dog, and even goats so it felt like a little farm experience. The host was very accommodating with everything we needed and I felt comfortable bringing my two children there. As we left, he even showed us around his greenhouse and sent us in our way with peppers, basil, green onion, and carrots. We really enjoyed our one night here.

Very interesting place to camp! It’s on a farm with lots of animals and art. We got to feed the goats! The host was cool and sat and talked with us for a bit and even offered some duck eggs for breakfast. The site itself was very chill and pretty private. It’s down next to the river so it was a good 5-10 degrees cooler and it was all very shaded. We had some trees to set up hammocks. Bring bug spray! I would definitely recommend this spot!

Great campsite with goats and a friendly dog. The host walked us to the river for a swim and was very responsive and made us feel welcome. Would stay again!

I truly enjoyed this trip! I went in went an open mind and it was just as I had hoped for. I loved holding the beautiful animals and seeing the wonderful art Richard and his friends have created. Richard and his friends are such kind people and very talented! I felt so welcome and would highly recommend to those who enjoy a hippie life style with animals! The heat was rough at night but it cooled down around 11 pm and was great. Bring bug spray!!

Loved staying a Richard’s property! He’s super nice and welcoming. Even gave us some duck eggs for breakfast. The river spot at Beaslie flats is super close and was a great time as well

Richard is a generous and kind host, as is his tenant/assistant. The entry into the property is a bit off putting, but the sites are well maintained. It’s like camping in a grove and very lovely. Richard has two huge livestock guardians dogs that look very intimidating, but are both lovely creatures. The older would lay outside our door like she was guarding it. It is a very quiet location.

We loved staying on the art farm!!! Art installations + active farm ? Count me in! This lovely property is full of imagination, personality and love—- my favorite was the jaguar sculpture next to our site. I especially loved the ducks, goat babies, and dogs. Zorro is a total snuggler! It was super nice to have a safe place for a few days. Boondockers paradise. I also loved the swing in the trees. Close to Jerome, cottonwood ands great jumping off point for all our adventures without all the off-roading. Thanks for the amazing hospitality and keep the spark alive !

We absolutely loved staying on the art farm !!! Art installations with a farm twist? Count me in. Lovely quirky property full of personality, imagination and love- my favorite creation was the Jaguar right next to our site. It was so nice to have a safe place as well for a few days in a row. I especially loved the ducks and goats and dogs. Zorro is a total ham. Shade a swing in the trees made it extra cozy. Boondockers paradise. Close to Jerome, Cottonwood and a great jumping off point for adventures without all the off-roading. Thanks for the amazing hospitality Richard! Keep the spark alive.

Richard was absolutely lovely! From the second we pulled in he was helpful and friendly. He offered us a full tour of his space and the chance to meet all the animals. He even offered us food or to take some duck eggs with us in the morning. The camping area was such a cool space filled with metal pyrotechnic sculptures and a creative energy. Richard is quite the artist and we are greatful to have been able to stay and meet him.

Richard and his space is nice and relaxing. You can enjoy his animals and art his Turkish livestock guardian dogs kept the wild animals away and for that I’m really glad about and felt safe. He shared some fresh duck eggs and offered to share fresh goat milk - he’s a great host and has some cool stuff and stories! I’d stay there again.

I had never been into the Verde Valley before, it was fun to go down into the neighborhood and see what's there. We just spent a quick night and moved on early the next day but the location was perfect. Fell asleep to coyote howls nearby.

If you like outsider art, goats, sweet dogs, and are pretty self reliant this place is for you. Richard was a super sweet host, and made sure I had any questions answered before he left me to my own devices to get my cooking fire started. Sleeping under the light of a full moon filtering through the mesquite was truly magical.

We Alaskans felt right at home on the property, but Your Mileage May Vary. If you felt the need to keep your shoes clean at all times, this is not the right spot for you. But, if you like meeting unique people or have a hippie lean, I think you’ll like it here. Our 2 year old loved seeing the goats and the sculptures.
