Beautiful spot to camp in an amazing community. Our hosts and neighbors were all friendly, caring, and welcoming. The campsites were nice and tidy, the bathroom, shower, and laundry facilities were all in great shape. Patagonia is small, but the campsite is an easy walk to the main street. We only moved our vehicle once to start a bike route.
Highly recommend!!

We decided to take a last minute, camping trip with our daughter to see the Sandhill Cranes at Whitewater Draw over Christmas, and this was the perfect location. Harry and Barbara had family plans elsewhere, but they were great about communicating all that we needed to know to stay at their place. Our stay was peaceful and beautiful...just the dose of nature and animals that we all needed.
We walked the short trails around their property, and used their solo stove in the evenings to stay warm. The night sky is incredible, and their bird feeders make this a great birding spot. The cranes were not as plentiful as in past years, but a couple of surges in their comings and goings made it worthwhile.
This is a great spot for those needing some time away from the city and a dose of nature.

I absolutely loved staying at Rocking T Ranch. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful! I had many wonderful conversations with Tony, he was always making sure everything was going great, even while him and his family were getting ready for the holidays! The animals, of course, were wonderful too!

The pictures are beautiful and eye-catching, but they barely scratch the surface of the alternate universe you step into when you arrive at El Pais Motel and Campground. From the moment we pulled in, it felt like we were part of something special.
The drive-in movie night with popcorn, the food truck and snacks, on-site laundry, and the welcoming community space all made the stay incredibly comfortable and memorable. Add in the creativity woven throughout the property, and it easily became one of our favorite stays to date.
Huge thanks to Jade and Karl for creating such a fun, thoughtful, and unique experience. We will absolutely be back!!

Fabulous, convenient spot! Walkable to town and the the Paton Center for hummingbirds. I biked about 12 miles down Blue Haven road. It was awesome.
The property is quiet, and very neat and clean, Joni, the camp host, is very friendly and happy to assist. I’m going back!

We had a group of 8 hiking friends who gathered at Karla's to camp for 2 nights. It was the perfect location for us, since one couple needed a room and they were able to stay in Karla's apartment, while the rest of us had camper vehicles.
Karla has made her place very special with her artistic and gardening skills, and she had many unexpected amenities (campfires in the evening and warm cinnamon rolls in the morning). I loved the animals and the $10 fee to groom the baby burro was well worth the fun.
Karla's ranch is in a great location for exploring the area, with the only downside being that it is on a busy highway that can get noisy at times. However, it didn't detract from our trip. We did a beautiful hike at Brown Canyon one day, and the next day we explored the ghost town of Fairbank with a beautiful walk along the San Pedro Conservation Area. Some of us took a cold dip in the pool following a rather warm hike. In the evening we had a wonderful wine tasting at Los Milics Vineyards on their patio at sunset and a dinner at the Copper Brothel in Sonoita, both close by.
We highly recommend Karla's Humingbird Guest Ranch and hope to come back, again.

Hummingbird Ranch is a special place that shows a lot of care by the owner, Karla. The site affords a beautiful view of the Whetstone Mountains and is convenient to the Huachuchas, the ghost town of Fairbanks, Sonoita, wine country, etc. - a great jumping off point for the area.

Our stay at Karla’s place was exceptional. We arrived just before sunset, and Karla was already waiting at the gate to welcome us and show us to our site. The spot was thoughtfully laid out and extremely well equipped. The 50-amp NEMA 14-50 hookup charged our Tesla without issue.
The campsite layout is flexible and well designed, you can set up wherever you’re most comfortable and still have privacy and quiet. The property itself is more than a gem; it’s genuinely unique. We spent a good half hour exploring the artwork in the shared common space, which includes a kitchen area stocked with a microwave, coffee maker, refrigerator, and an immaculately clean bathroom.
Karla is clearly both a craftsman and an artist, and the care she’s put into the property shows everywhere. Nothing feels generic or rushed, every detail feels intentional and one of a kind. We also had the chance to meet her horses and donkey, all of whom were gentle, friendly, and a joy to be around.
The sunset was spectacular, the campsite was peaceful, and we enjoyed dinner in her beautifully decorated outdoor cabana. Karla was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind throughout our stay. Everything was exactly as it should be.
We can’t wait to return

Karla was super accommodating for my RV stay at her ranch. I'm relocating to the area and needed a place to stay for a few days until my new house closes. After several exhausting days preparing for my move and driving down here, the ranch has been the perfect place to get some much needed R&R. She didn't even mind my tortoise stretching his legs around the place! The pool, fire pit area, and other amenities are all well kept and proved a relaxing atmosphere. And yes. There are actual humming birds.😄

Oh my gosh, where can I even begin. Karla is such a sweetheart! I absolutely loved her place. We were a group of three that booked last minute for tent camping. She was there to greet us when we pulled in and gave us a quick tour. She has worked VERY hard to create a beautiful little ranch with her own hands. She is amazingly creative. Do check out the scrapbook she has made of what she has done over the few years she has owned the place. It is AMAZING. Extremely talented, hardworking, and creative. I cannot begin to fathom the amount of effort she has poured into her property. It really is mindblowing.
The bathroom was spotless, the tent shelter was extremely sturdy and well built, the grounds meticulously maintained. Again, she has built and maintained all of this herself.
Karla really spares absolutely NO effort or expense to make sure her campers are happy, safe, and comfortable. An absolutely wonderful lady with a calm, strong and sweet presence. Just a tremendous, tremendous amount of thought, care, and artistry throughout. Highly, highly highly recommend.
Thank you for hosting the Three Amigos, Karla. I hope we see you again.

Karla and the Hummingbird Ranch were absolutely the best! Not only is her spot fantastic, she is an absolute gem of a human being! The access to a toilet was pivotal at this point in our trip. She also rents her shower out, which was a huge draw for me. We stayed in her hand built cabana which was wonderful to set my tent up in and also be able to cook and hang out in. She has done a lot of work on her property and it is absolutely gorgeous. My favorite part of the day was sitting down at dusk watching all of her solar lights turn on. I would absolutely stay here again if I was ever in the area.

TerraSol is a welcoming, relaxed and well maintained place to camp. I loved the community campfire giving me the chance to talk with other campers. Mary was helpful and the location was ideal for access on foot to town and activities.

RV Ranch is located in a beautiful spot of Cochise County. Gorgeous view of Cochise Stronghold and surrounding ranges. It’s a working ranch so you’ll hear animal noises which added to the peace of the place for me. Full hookup, very level site made it a breeze to get settled quickly. I was so fortunate to witness the great crane migration during my stay. Thousands of them made their way to their winter home right overhead. Truly amazing. Highly recommend RV Ranch to anyone visiting this stunning area of AZ.

This was my first time using HipCamp and boy, does Karla set the bar high. The property speaks for itself, attention to detail everywhere, very clean property and very well organized and thought out. Treated us with a community fire pit, got to make some new camp friends along the way. Restroom was super convenient and clean, the tent site allowed us to have a covered gazebo over us for added warmth and comfort. Overall a 5-star experience and wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Oh, and Reba the donkey is super friendly and loves ear scritches in the morning 😁

This was our second visit to El Pais and it was a wonderful as we remembered ❤️
We stayed in the tent spot which is awesome. The vegan food truck/movie night on the weekend was great. We love all the El Paisians!!! The coffee is always great and sunbathing poolside is relaxing. So many cool spots to relax inside and out.
