11 Acres in rural Cochise County at the end of the road. We back up to the San Pedro Riparian Area, and the San Pedro River, offering hiking, birding, wildlife watching, and other recreational activities. The roads leading to the property from Hereford Road are dirt that are regularly maintained, but you may experience some washboard along the way depending on the season. Cochise County is dark sky country. After viewing those amazing Arizona sunsets, cast your eyes on the night sky, and see stars and the Milky Way like you've never experienced before! Experience the abundant wildlife that comes through the property. Birds, Javelina, deer, listen to the coyotes howl. It simply is magical! Bird watching: Experience hundreds of different species of birds in Cochise County (485 at last count). Lots of different hummingbirds (we're the hummingbird capital of the United States), hawks, sparrows, roadrunners, cactus wren, quail, and the list goes on. Be sure to hike down the San Pedro River, or to Ramsey Canyon to see even more! Hiking: With an abundance of canyons in the area, there's hiking opportunities all around us! A short 10 minute drive lands you at the foot of the Huachuca Mountains with Ramsey Canyon, Miller Canyon, Carr Canyon, and many more! But above all, we have a private gate leading to the BLM land situated right next to the RV pad! Feel free to use it to go and explore, maybe even hike down to the river. Don't be surprised if you see people on horseback, as this is a very popular equestrian area. There are tons of sightseeing opportunities around us, such as Bisbee (be sure to check out Old Bisbee, and the Bisbee Breakfast Club for some amazing food), Tombstone (OK Corral puts on a very entertaining show), Cartchner Caverns State Park, Coronado National Memorial. All within a short drive from here. If you'd like to visit Mexico, you can cross at Naco (about 15 minute drive) or at Douglas (about 45 minutes) Lots of restaurants in Sierra Vista, but we recommend trying Mimosa Pizzeria, or La Sierra Steakhouse, both just a 10 minute drive down the road, along with Dollar General for your immediate needs. The RV site offers full hookups, 30/50 Amp service. Your pets are welcome to roam around off leash, as long as they're people and dog friendly.

Karla’s land was open, clean, and very easy to move around in. It really shows that she takes great care of her property, and the structures she has built are wonderfully creative! ( to call them sheds does not seem appropriate:-) Her property is gated, and I felt very comfortable and safe there.

Karla’s place is as good as it gets, very clean and the set up was great, easy access to camp spots with electric and water at a convenient location. The facilities were top notch, next to the bathroom there’s your own private room with everything you need for a great stay, amenities were the best, pool access, pool house with table and chairs and the decoration throughout were great. Karla is the best, she treated us like we were family. When we go her way again we will definitely use her Hipcamp!!

My stay at Maxine and Chad's Hdden Oasis was wonderful. Due to circumstances, I was upgraded to a Casita. It was so very cute, had a nice kitchen, a lovely shower, and a very comfortable bed. It was perfect for my need. The love and attention given to Hdden Oasis as a parent everywhere you look. Every detail is delightful and exudes a loving presence I hope to come back again with my husband and spend more time here. This place, surrounded by intriguing mountains, which I have no doubt are dripping with birds during spring migration, is truly a gem.

Wow! This was a lovely location and Karla has gone above and beyond to make this place special for those who stay with her. She is quite an artist. We enjoyed the pool, and visiting the donkeys and we slept well as it was very quiet. We will be back and hope to make this an annual visit.

Weekend Trip to Mesquite Meadows

Mesquite Meadows is as beautiful as pictured! The night sky, the sunset and sunrise from this spot is breathtaking. But the sights pale in comparison to the warmth and kindness demonstrated by Attila and Heather. As this was our "first full hook up run" with our RV they were happy to offer help if any was needed which was reassuring. In addition to that you can only imagine the joy we felt when Heather provided a fresh pint of homemade vanilla ice cream "which just finished churning." Needless to say, that was the first thing on the list -- finish that ice cream! What a lovely touch! We will absolutely be returning to Mesquite Meadows and enjoy the warmth, kindness, sights and peacefulness this Hipcamp offers. Highly recommended!

I had such a wonderful stay at Hidden Oasis! The hosts have put so much love and creativity into their place. All of the buildings are interesting, artsy, and sincere and exude a warm and friendly energy. The surrounding desert is lush, beautiful and teeming with wildlife. I’ve lived in Southern AZ for 35 years and still saw a few species of native plants and animals I’ve never seen before. The peace and tranquility here is superb, sitting outside enjoying the cooler weather and listening to the nature sounds was so relaxing that I slept better here than i have in weeks, and at night the sky explodes with stars, and I was lucky enough to see one streak across the sky. This is honestly one of my favorite places and I can’t wait to come back to visit the next time I’m in need of rejuvenation.

The mountain views were amazing. Full hookups were very convenient. Karla was very nice and my kids enjoyed grooming and exercising the horses. There were several amazing spaces guests can use… A coffee room and pool bathroom. The beautiful pool with amazing lighting for nighttime swimming. A cute little pool house with seating. A covered picnic area and a few other unique hang out spots. Very highly recommend!

This location is AMAZING. Karla has done a wonderful job developing her land, and is such an amazing welcoming host. She met me rolling in, showed me where to park, gave me the lay of the land and THEN, when I discovered some inside-the-camper damage (door stripped from wood frame d/t road vibrations) allowed me to walk through her massive tool garage to get everything I needed to fix it. I told her I'd likely be leaving very early, and she was up waving g goodbye as I was leaving at 5am! She try cares about her space, as well as her guests. And be warned, her pool is COLD! I expected it to be desert sun warmed, but it was uber refreshing! Thank you, so much, Karla, for everything.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Karla’s, I honestly don’t think it could have been better. If we weren’t en route to a wedding, we would have stayed longer than one night. We will visit again at some point. We were doing some wine tasting and just generally driving around the Elgin area as we’ve been through before but never stopped. Glad we stopped and beyond glad we met Karla and got to enjoy her sanctuary.

Carla‘s ranch was very lovely and she is a host is very friendly and welcoming. Her property is gorgeous and you can tell she’s fit a lot of time and to making it pretty.. very close by or two other RV parks that are just big parking. Lots in the RVs are very close to each other, but you turn into her place in the spaces are wide and open and her price is great as well. I would highly recommend Karla’s Hummingbird Ranch to anyone looking for a unique spot~~

7 nights at Mesquite Meadows

This was an incredible find! It ended up being exactly what we were looking for. It is about a mile down a dirt road, bordering a huge tract of BLM land. We have a 44’ fifth wheel and had plenty of room. When we arrived Heather greeted us with a loaf of fresh baked sourdough bread. Attila met us and helped us get set up. The site has full hookups and is level. They were available throughout the stay and we fell in love with the fresh well water. Seriously, the flavor of the water is amazing. Their golden retriever adopted us and is so sweet. The mountains provided the perfect backdrop every night. Tombstone, Sierra Vista and Bisbee are close by. We stayed here for 2 1/2 months and loved it. Would not hesitate to come back again.

We loved our stay with Attila and Heather. They met us at the site and assisted us getting set up. Heather also had homemade sourdough bread for us. The site has full hookups and borders thousands of acres of BLM land. It was exactly what we hoped it would be, remote, gorgeous and safe. It is about one mile down a dirt road, but plenty wide enough for our big rig. We have a 44’ fifth wheel and the site was big enough for us. One of the most surprising parts of the site was the well water. We loved the flavor of the water. The hosts are amazing and generous. We really enjoyed our time with them and would love to stay here again. It was about 25 minutes to Sierra Vista, Tombstone and Bisbee.

Karla met us as we drove on to her property to introduce herself and she immediately made us feel welcome. Once we got our camp set up she showed us around the property. We loved meeting her horses and donkey. Our group had the whole camping area to ourselves. Everything was clean and tidy. The lights around the property in the evening are beautiful. You can tell that Karla has meticulously placed every light, lantern, planter, and decor items. We will definitely return.
