5 nights at Verde River Vortex

We had the best time at Crystal Loft Cabin! Jason was an incredible host offering all the tips you could need on everything from places to eat, hike, kayak, bike, live music, etc. He even came to pick up my friend and I at the end of kayaking on the verde river! Crystal Loft is a perfect space 17 minutes outside of downtown Cottonwood, and 40 or so from Sedona with amazing star views, and all the amenities you could need. It was mid 80’s-low 90’s when there, but cooled off perfectly in the evenings, and Jason had an AC unit and fan that kept the cabin perfect temp. The bed on the upstairs loft was comfortable. Highly recommend this spot- so glad we found it. Thanks Jason!

5 nights at Bournholm - Now with Starlink!

Very quiet spot… We were only ones there! Property is beautiful and well maintained. Beautiful sunset and sunrise. 10 mile dirt road is not a problem for any vehicle. I drove a class C RV. Just go slow and enjoy the sights! Plenty of wildlife is a plus!

1 night at Old Town Garden Oasis

This RV setup was a great place to hang out while my friends and I were looking to explore the area and the surrounding national forests. There's a nice view out to a lovely shaded yard with a pond and birds, which was great to look out at while playing some cards. The only issue my crew ran into was not realizing the oven wasn't ready for use as the pilot needed to be on and Joshua wasn't home. Not a big deal, but perhaps a note to mention intended oven use before you arrive so you will be set up to make a pizza or anything else. Overall, nice quiet spot that was great for my two friends and I to post up at the night before adventuring out to the Sedona area more.

1 night at A Spark in the Dark Campground

My daughter and I loved the stay. This was our second visit, and just like the first the stay was perfect. This has become our favorite location for dark-sky star gazing and astrophotography. The stars are amazing here with almost no light pollution (I'm guessing Bortle 2), and the view of the sky from the Easy Breezy Shelter is horizon to horizon. The place is very safe and quiet. The porta potty is a great touch, as my daughter is not a big fan of "finding a tree" when nature calls.

4 nights at Naked Skull Campgrounds 21+ Only

We’ve been traveling from the Ca. Foothills to camp in the red rock country for close to 50 years. In the old days, we could arrive at a place like Valley of Fire or Desert View without advance notice and score a site. Now, no. Thank goodness for Hipcamp. The route between Flagstaff and Utah was always a camping challenge. This May we found Naked Skull, liked what we saw and booked four nights. Linda put us in 7T and we loved it. Quiet wide open vistas in a rock protected site where we parked our pop up. Lots of lizards, a few wild horses and exquisite sky. Linda and Donavin were attentive hosts, made sure we were fine and gave us friendly space. Now that we have a place to stay, we’ll be taking 89 more often.

1 night at Epic Private 300 Acre Saguaro Park

This was a great experience. Great views, wonderful dark sky at night this is an excellent spot to explore. Hosts are perfect. They have great knowledge and are so very helpful. The airstream was perfect. Excellent AC, Internet and Netflix.

Weekend Trip to RV in Gods country

16 ft car

My husband and I had an amazing get away with friends at this property. The directions were clear,m and precise. Elena was prompt and very helpful with any questions. Justin, the property manager, welcomed us as we arrived and escorted us to our site. He familiarized us with property and gave us some great tips for trail access. We were very happy with the hospitality we received. The campground was secluded and peaceful, which is exactly what we were looking for. The mountain trails were easily accessible, as we enjoyed exploring them during the day. The night views are perfect for stargazing, it’s breathtaking how many stars were visible. We will definitely be return customers.

Weekend Trip to RV in Gods country

I don't even know where to start with this review it was all so wonderful! The property is super quiet and private. We were met by Justin when we arrived and he showed us to our site. The sites are a good size and are very clean. We loved that they were gravel and not dirt or hot concrete. The sites are all adjacent to the gate that leads to an abundance of public trails for UTV riding which we did a LOT of riding. Each site had water, electric and sewer . . . amazing! There was a dumpster for trash near the barn just a short walk or ride from the sites. The stars at night beat all we've ever seen. It was like when we camped in Yellowstone and could see the stars for infinity. We even got to see the Starlink satellite line fly past. We all wished that we had hammocks or zero gravity chairs just so we could stare at the stars! This property is truly gorgeous! There are bath facilities in the Retreat center that are spacious and very clean. The retreat center itself looked heavenly - we didn't explore it until our checkout but I believe we missed out. The porch alone would be awesome with a cup of coffee and one of their rockers. There was horseshoes and other recreational outdoor games that we didn't explore early enough. Elena says that the area is God's Country and we could not agree more! We will be back many times to come! She has done a beautiful job with the property. We can't wait to see the rest of her vision come to life!

Weekend Trip to MOUNTAIN DESTINY!

Our 2 and 4 yr old loved the dirt piles, rocks, rabbits, goats, and chickens. They have already asked if we can stay again! Mr. Richard and his wife were a joy to chat with. We even got to enjoy the rodeo down the road. Highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Rancho del Nido RV Horse Camp

We have tried several different hipcamps in this area. Kim’s is by far our favorite. The scenery is beautiful and the owners are amazing.

Weekend Trip to A Spark in the Dark Campground

Spark in the Dark was an amazing place to camp! Clifford was very respectful and communicative. Gave us an amazing heads up about directions, the weather, and his property. His campsite is very thought out and a really cool place to stay. We loved his moonlight market with goodies you may need and suggestions on where to throw your trash, it was very helpful. I appreciate you Clifford! Thanks for creating such an intentional space!

Weekend Trip to A Spark in the Dark Campground

My girlfriend and I drove in and was immediately welcomed by Clifford and given an idea of where to go! We felt safe, taken care of, and the land is just gorgeous. It was Memorial Day, so we were expecting lots of noise, but the other campers respected the noise rule. It felt like an escape with plenty of space! If you’re looking for a nice spot to stay, this is a great option!

Weekend Trip to Beaver Creek Oasis

Laura was amazing! She was such a kind host, made sure we had everything we needed and even introduced us to her lovely animal family. The trailer was so comfortable and the grounds were clean. The creek is gorgeous, we spent the day there and had it all to our selves swimming, sun bathing and taking in nature. We will definitely be back!

3 nights at Horse friendly campsites and trails

Sara and Jim were such kind hosts who let our kids pet the donkeys and horses, the location was easy to find and get to, and we really enjoyed staying here!

Desert Oasis Near Zion

Rest up in peace and quiet in this leafy, shady garden spot. Our place is an oasis in the desert and is admired by all visitors as the most lush, cool spot in Cane Beds. The surrounding vermillion cliffs match the adobe walls of this charming cottage. This unique cottage is a rare example of an earth dwelling. Built about 30 years ago with adobe red clay, sand and straw, it is modernized and recently renovated. You will see two examples of the application of the adobe method in this building. If you have pets you must add them under EXTRAS. We have it listed under EXPERIENCES and we charge $25 cleaning fee per visit. The way Hipcamp has us do this is not very well done, it's a bit clunky. But Just select one pet if you are staying shorter than a month, two pets if a month or longer. It is not a fee per pet, or per guest, it is per visit. So if you have two pets and are staying a week then select for only one pet. Just let us know how many pets (and what kind) to expect. Message us with any questions. Dogs will have to be on leash when outside since we have a number of cats and even though your dog may not chase them, the cats would certainly be a bit freaked out. Also it's possible that your pet could get out onto the road which has claimed several of my kitties. Please know if your dog will be OK watching the kitties through the windows or when outside. We are within reach of several National Parks and other scenic sights for a day trip, including North Rim Grand Canyon, ZION, Bryce, Coral Pink Sand Dunes State park, Pipe Spring National Monument, Grand Staircase Escalante National Reserve and on and on. All around is breathtaking beauty and many easy hikes and mind-blowing vistas just in the neighborhood! Just to note, there is only 1 bedroom with a queen bed. With notice we can bring in a camp bed, or you can set up your tent on the lawn for extra guests or children.

A ranch of nearly 100,000 acres jointly owned by Marion Clark and Croydon Cooley a U.S. army scout. According to legend, sometime around 1876, the partners decided that there was not enough room for both of them and one of them should leave. They decided to settle this issue over a game of "Seven Up" (with the winner taking the ranch and the loser leaving.) After the game seemed to have no winner in sight the game reached it's climax when Clark said, "If you can show low, you win." At this point Cooley turned up the deuce of clubs, and declared "Show Low" it is! Show Low is a city in Navajo County, Arizona among the lush green ponderosa pine forestland and along Arizona's Mogollon Rim at an elevation of 6,345 feet.
