Hawks Hideaway offers 8 campsites suitable for tents of all sizes, many of which can accommodate two or more tents (additional fees may apply). We also have a large, unfurnished teepee, and are working on a cozy, furnished country cottage. (ETA Sept 25). Large trailers and RVs are NOT allowed.
Nearby activities include: bird watching, hiking, river rafting or tubing, kayaking, fishing, swimming, stargazing, and rockhounding. This area conforms to the Arizona Dark Sky initiative, and while we are not dark-sky certified, we've had several guests compliment us on our beautiful skys. When it comes to rockhounding, or amateur geology, this is a fantastic area for exploration and study.
We gladly welcome pets, as long as you take care of all their needs, including cleaning up any mess and filling in any holes. Well mannered, friendly dogs may be unleashed from time to time. Please, PLEASE watch your small pets carefully. If you're traveling with cats, please keep them on a lead.
There is a riding academy and boarding facility adjacent to our property, and a long pleasant trail allows horseback riders, hikers and cyclists to travel along the Verde Greenway into Old Town Cottonwood, a pleasant 30 minute walk through lush riparian area.
Hawks Hideaway is a family owned property, occupied by a 3rd and 4th generation, mother-son team. Two generations have lived and died here before us and we are proud to be the custodians of this majestic property, full of old growth, gigantic cottonwood trees. A birdwatcher, or naturalists dream.
Hawks Hideaway is a natural and secluded spot located directly adjacent to the state-maintained Verde River Greenway. This means you may encounter wildlife and pests associated with being in such close connection to nature.
Hawks Hideaway is next to many miles of wilderness. You may see or encounter wildlife of all kinds, most are harmless, some are dangerous. It is your responsibility to know the difference. Be prepared to tuck your food away and bring ample protection from the insects.
You are responsible for your own safety and are camping here at you own risk. Please do not interact with any wild animals. If you encounter something and need help, please reach out to us. We live on the property and are readily available.

Beall’s B&B camp | Earth-Based Holistic Wellness & Sacred Rest
Beall’s B&B camp is an off-grid, earth-based wellness campground rooted in respect for the land and the ancient ways of living in balance with nature. This space was created as a place of rest, remembrance, and reconnection, guided by indigenous-inspired values of stewardship, simplicity, and sacred relationship with the Earth.
Our land is cared for with intention and gratitude. We honor natural rhythms, quiet living, and mindful presence. Guests are invited to slow down, unplug, and experience the grounding energy of the land — whether through stillness, ceremony, or simply listening to the wind and wildlife.
We offer handcrafted, natural earth medicines made in small batches using plant wisdom, traditional techniques, and deep respect for the healing properties of nature. These offerings are available on-site for those who feel called to support their personal wellness journey.
This is a CBD-friendly space with a discreet, respectful approach to THC-aware wellness, aligned with rustic, ceremonial, and nature-honoring values. We ask all guests to remain mindful, low-impact, and respectful of the shared sacred environment.
Beall’s B&B camp welcomes those seeking sacred rest, soulful quiet, and a deeper connection to the land. This is not a party campground — it is a place to walk gently, rest deeply, and leave the land as you found it.
May the land receive you kindly.
May your rest be deep and your spirit steady.
May you leave lighter than you arrived.

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!

There’s really no other way to say it. You just gotta see it for yourself!

Our story begins with a little old lady, our grandma, who believed with all her heart that we were worth it. She passed a few years ago, and what better way to honor her belief in us than to create Ethel's Hideout. We came from a small ranching family, which has brought us closer than we ever imagined. Hard work and dedication were imprinted on us from a young age. On this land we have built an RV pull-through, camp sites, and horse stalls. One day we hope to have some small cabins to share with you all.
Ethel's is your home away from home. We border agriculture and sate and public lands which provides an authentic western experience. Though tucked away to give the illusion of seclusion, we are located only 7 miles from downtown Kanab Utah. Kanab features many fun and exciting events throughout the year. Located right in the heart of several national parks, Zions, Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Lake Powell and many more fun things to tour. Hook ups include power and water. Our most unique feature is horse stalls on site. Bring your horses with you and reserve stalls for them as well. Our convenient location offers direct access to ride on public lands. Traveling with horses? We have just the spot with (8) 12′ x 14′ covered stall. Contact us to book stalls for your horses to stay over night with you.

This spacious land is over 4 acres of high desert with breathtaking 360 degree views.
Only 45 minutes from Flagstaff, 30 minutes from the historic Grand Canyon, and only 36 minutes from Williams, this property is in the middle of it all. There is so much potential for amazing adventures.
You could go fishing in Williams or have a snowball fight in Flagstaff. If you have never seen the Grand Canyon you are in for an ultimate life changing experience.
The dark night skies in this area may just keep you at camp. You can see every star out here and enjoy the escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. With wide open spaces you have so much room to play.
The road to the property is about 0.8 miles and is considered dirt rugged. It will require you to so down under 5 miles an hour in a few places. You have the entire road to travel on and maneuver around the big bumps. I drive my car to the property ever time and don't have an issue if I slow down and go around large holes. If there is a recent storm in the area the road could be difficult to navigate.

The host was absolutely right about the porta-potty, it was the cleanest we've ever seen. We especially appreciated the creativity around the property and the unique ways recycled materials were transformed into something new and meaningful. We would definitely stay here again and look forward to returning.

Clifford is an outstanding host!! I had to delay my stay almost a week and he was very accommodating! When I finally got on my way, it took me longer than I expected to arrive and when I finally arrived it was dark, pitch black dark and I had no idea where I was. Thankfully, Clifford came to the rescue, and took me back to the campground where I was greeted with beautiful lighted mushrooms (later discovered that they were on the path to the camp's meditation area which was so cool by the way!! When daylight came I was greeted by the beautiful Juniper trees and distant mountain views. At night, I was blown away by the stars!!! It's truly a beautiful, and might I say magical place, especially for me being my first official full-time RV life destination! I would definitely go back if in the area again and highly recommend!!

It was a lovely little ranch with all kinds of animals. The hostess was super accommodating and showed my 2 girls around and introduced them to the animals and let them help feed and water them too. Holly was great and I hope to go back again soon! My little ones didn't want to leave. The RV spot for us was easy to get in and out of. Power, water, and septic hookups were exactly where they needed to be, couldn't have asked for a better place or host. If you have kiddos they'll love it, I know mine has a blast.

This is our 2nd time at Spark in the Dark. The stargazing and sunsets are great. It’s so quiet. The host, Clifford, has put some creative, funky, whimsical touches to the campground that are unparalleled. The porta potty has lovely music and lots of decorations. There’s a meditation area with native flute music, a solar campfire, and a trail to explore. He has cabinets with supplies for self-purchase, like jugs of water, big spray, matches etc. I love this place! The campsites have piles of rocks for campfires but otherwise are bare land, so bring table and chairs or you can rent them from the host.

Very laid back camping area, and Clifford is really cool! There were several other campers there, and the only interaction I had was when my dog got surprised by him and his dogs. All was good in the end, but I'm sure he was surprised.
The area was beautiful, and the only clue that it is so close to the interstate was an occasional sound... beautiful sunset, very dark and good for star viewing! Be prepared for the temperature drop, though. This is true desert, so unlike Phoenix in the valley, the temperature DROPS at night! If you're in a tent like me, your summer sleeping bag is probably not going to cut it!
Great time, friendly host and I plan to go back again. Thank you, Clifford!

Where to go
Northern Arizona
While northern Arizona's best-known attraction is the South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park, there’s plenty more to see and do, from visiting Lake Powell on the Colorado River to backcountry tent camping among the ponderosa pines in the Coconino National Forest, Prescott National Forest, and Kaibab National Forest. Sedona, just south of Flagstaff, also makes a great base for hiking among Arizona's Red Rocks or swimming in Oak Creek Canyon’s Slide Rock State Park.
Western Arizona
Dubbed Arizona's "West Coast," this part of the state offers all sorts of outdoor activities, much of which revolve around the Colorado River. The town of Yuma near the southern border is a popular spot, featuring an old Wild West prison and serving as a good base for visiting the Cibola National Wildlife Refuge. Attractions further north include Lake Havasu State Park, where you can swim, camp, or even check out the 19th-century London Bridge. Further north, the massive Lake Mead National Recreation Area offers year-round camping and easy access to two lakes.
Central Arizona
While it's easy to associate central Arizona with Phoenix sprawl, this region offers a lot for outdoorsy types, all within a short drive of the city. Popular spots for outdoors lovers include the Superstition Mountains in the Tonto National Forest, Lost Dutchman State Park, and the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest. If you're interested in archaeology, the Montezuma Castle National Monument is also worth a visit.
Southern Arizona
Southern Arizona is full of Wild West spirit, with a mix of historic ghost towns and scenic desert landscapes, plus plenty of forests, particularly in the Chiricahua Mountains. Must-visit parks include Saguaro National Park and Catalina State Park—both just outside Tucson. If it gets too hot, make like a local and head to Patagonia Lake State Park, a prime spot to swim and cool off from the Arizona heat.
