Maricopa, AZ · 16 sites · Tents, RVs
Tucked into 20 acres of tranquil Sonoran desert just outside Maricopa, the Wild West RV Ranch invites you to unwind under wide-open skies and a backdrop of rust-coloured desert terrain. Whether you’re rolling in with a big rig or pitching a tent, you’ll find a space that feels both open and welcoming. Choose from full-hook-up RV sites—complete with water, sewer, 30/50 amp electric, WiFi and a pull-through large enough for rigs under 50 ft—or go more primitive with a tent-friendly spot near the shower house and restrooms. Campfires are allowed at every site, lighting up nights under starry desert skies. When you’re ready to stretch your legs, meet the “locals”: the working ranch on-site is home to emus, chickens, turkeys, peacocks and even a giant Sulcata tortoise—adding a fun wild-west-meets-farm-feel to the stay. And just beyond the campsite, you’ll find laundry, a small store stocked with ranch-fresh eggs, local honey, snacks, beer and wine. Warm mornings, cool evenings, and the peaceful hum of desert life make this a spot where you can slow down, breathe deep and connect with the outdoors—without sacrificing comfort. Highlights • Spacious pull-through RV sites: full hookups + WiFi. • Tent sites in a more rustic setting with water & basic facilities. • On-site ranch animals and plenty of open desert space to roam. • Store, laundry and shower house make for easy, comfortable stays. • Campfires allowed—perfect for a laid-back desert evening. Ideal For • RV travellers driving through Arizona who want full amenity support. • Tent campers looking for something more comfortable than “rough it” desert camping. • Families or groups who appreciate a bit of character (hello, emus!) in their campground. • Anyone wanting a peaceful desert base with a little ranch flavor, but still within reach of local conveniences.

Stargazing in US's #2 Dark Sky Zone

AZ · 12 sites
The stars are unforgettable here. Dark sky stargazing in #2 darkest sky in USA. This remote and peaceful campsite gives you a backcountry wilderness experience you can reach in a regular car. Amateur astronomers love the stargazing and viewing the Milky Way with your bare eyes -- photo of Milky Way Galaxy here was taken at the site. Boatel class 2 -- in the International Dark Sky Zone. Book during a NEW MOON if you want to see stars like those in the photos here. Guests also enjoy the abundant wildlife, birdwatching, hiking and taking drives to a hot springs and swimming holes with waterfalls in the region. The area is also great for 4x4 exploration in your short wheelbase 4x4 or ATV. No visible city lights, no lighting on site, no passing car headlights, and no signs of civilization. No traffic noise whatsoever. Winter daytime weather in the 70s, sunny most of the time, 3000-5000 ft elevation and above the heat. REMOTE FEELING BUT FREEWAY CLOSE Our base camp site is a 35 minute scenic drive off of Highway 93, between Las Vegas and Phoenix, (2 1/2 hours either way) We are about 3 hours from the Grand Canyon and 45 miles from Prescott. We have a few campsites with fire rings you can safely drive to in a regular 2 wheel drive car, minivan, camper van or smaller (not monstrous) Pull behind trailers are ok if you have a truck. You can pull through the site. The rest of the ranch is 4x4, hike in camping only. Roads beyond the Base Camp and in surrounding wilderness are rugged and a great adventure for those with a Subaru, Jeep or ATV -- miles and miles of dirt roads in this adjacent 27,000 acre wilderness. BETWEEN PHOENIX AND VEGAS Aquarius Stargazing Ranch is in the Aquarius Mountains, 3 hours and 200 miles West of the Grand Canyon near the ghost town of Nothing, Arizona. We are 6 hours from Los Angeles or San Diego. We are halfway between Phoenix and Las Vegas, (2 1/2 hours between either city). WEATHER It is usually 10 - 20 degrees cooler than Wikieup or Phoenix. It rains more up here and there are trees and thick brush. Never snows, sunny year round. Summer brings spectacular Monsoon thunderstorms. ECOSYSTEM You will notice the landscape starkly changes as you drive from the Highway up into these steep and remote mountains. The ecosystem is a blend of Saguro Cactus, prickly pear, and cholla cactus, desert sagebrush, Southwestern hardwoods like mesquite and manzanita and deciduous leafy trees like Aspen, Gingko, Cottonwood, and Sycamore. Wildflowers are prolific in Spring and after rains. WILDLIFE Wildlife is abundant including endangered species like Bighorn Sheep, Wild Burro, Wild Horses, Pronghorn Antelope, Bald Eagle, Falcon, Great Horned Owl -- 150 species of birds. Bees, dragonflies and butterflies thrive here as no pesticide or herbicide has ever touched this land. This is a primal experience. No human habitation. SWIMMING HOLES NEARBY Surrounded on all sides by 27,000 acres of the very remote Upper Burro Creek wilderness through which a creek flows uninterrupted for 13 miles, year round, enabling wildlife to flourish and creating amazing swimming holes and waterfalls. There are also hot springs in this area. HIKING Hiking is easy and gentle on miles of roads and sandy washes, lovely trails made by wild deer, antelope, bighorn sheep, wild burros, and the occasional stray cow. ATV ADVENTURE There is also very challenging and rugged, steep, uphill off trail hiking for the adventurous explorer and miles of 4x4 trails to explore in the surrounding Burro Creek wilderness. PRISTINE, SACRED LAND We consider ourselves guardians of this sacred land. Our intention is to preserve this absolutely pristine, untouched and virtually uninhabited land as a wildlife corridor for future generations, and develop it only according to ecological Permaculture principles. We also intend to protect the wild horses and wild animals that roam freely here. As you walk the road that heads into the higher mountain region of the land where volcanic peaks reach above 5,000 feet, you will notice that it is an natural bowl that protects a seasonal stream and canyon. HISTORY Native tribes lived here because it was a defensible and safe haven, it is truly a natural fortress of red rock and granite. Before that, dinosaurs roamed this region of Arizona and fossilized remains are evident, as well as petroglyphs. Nearby Wikieup was once the settlement of the Hualapai Indians, also known as Walapais. The Native Americans used to cultivate corn and other food crops aided by the rich, river-nourished soil of the valley. They had fierce rivals in the tribe of the Tonto Apaches. Mostly, the two tribes did not seek disputes with each other but all that changed with the coming of the settlers, and later, the Gold Rush and miners. The settlement of the settlers pushed both tribes farther from their source of livelihood. This resulted in disputes between the white men, the Yavapai Apaches, and the Hualapais. The natural fortress like formation of the canyon on the ranch was an important refuge because it was easily defensible. We have found artifacts making it obvious that this was inhabited by aboriginal tribal humans before the Native Americans. Perhaps the land has not changed significantly since then. Dinosaurs roamed Northern Arizona before that, and this sandy region was once a sea. It does look like an ocean without water. Explore magical Aquarius and let us know what you discover. Learn more about this land: You aren't just here for camping.  You are here for transformation. "Hipcamp Finalist - Best in Arizona - 2019" * * * * * * * * * * * * Guests have described Aquarius Stargazing Ranch as: A deeply powerful experience. A spiritual experience. A life-altering experience. Silent, mystical and powerful land. Silence. Serenity. Dark, starry skies. Log off your devices, get way off the grid, and go deep into a remote wilderness that is easily accessible in your 2WD RV, van or car.  Surrender to the silence. So quiet you will hear your heartbeat.  Log off, do a digital detox, leave your electronics behind and tune into a higher frequency.  Clear your head of the clutter of city life, and empty it out here.  Primal -- yet not really that far away from the Interstate 93/11 (35 minutes), Los Angeles (6 1/2 hours), Las Vegas (2 1/2 hours), Metro Phoenix (2 hours), Prescott (1 hour,) the Grand Canyon or Sedona (3 hours.) Our reviews are mixed because Aquarius Ranch is not for everyone.  If you want electricity, pavement, trash cans, street lights, bug zappers, Netflix, hot showers, dumping stations and a liquor store -- please don't come here, you'll hate it! If you want to... take a bath alone with your sweetie in a primal geothermal hot spring, swim in a natural spring fed swimming hole, walk barefoot on white sand illuminated by moonlight, follow animal footprints instead of written signs, navigate by stars, hike to a spring or a well for fresh water, watch the flames dance and listen to the Cicadas....if you want a 5 BILLION STAR experience.... Aquarius is for you. Read on. This is a 2,000 acre, State Park-level beauty, Dark Sky wildlife sanctuary-- uninhabited for over 50 years and never developed.  There is nothing here and that's what you came for. (The nearest town is, indeed, Nothing, Arizona.) The only signs of humans are arrowheads, caves, petroglyphs. The only evidence of the 21st Century are satellites. (Airplanes are rare.) You will see dinosaur fossils embedded in sandstone.  It is literally a Jurassic Park. The land has a very high frequency as it is covered with pink quartz crystals. I want to make sure you "get" why you are coming here, and are prepared. Aquarius is a journey -- not a destination. Yes, it's hard to find and you can't just use your GPS. Sorry.  Put your iPhone away unless you're taking photos or using Satellite to navigate with maps you downloaded in advance.   There are no signs and the only trail markers are rock cairns. You're going to have to rediscover how to use a map and follow directions. As you hike, you will remember how to observe the stars and the sky and the shadows of sun.  This is part of your DNA, it is part of your soul as a human.  You'll remember Aquarius. Your soul has been here before.  Have you ever seen the Milky Way Galaxy?  We are in the Earth's second darkest "dark sky" region.  The photo of the sky here was taken by a guest! You can see the Milky Way here with your naked eyes.  *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* A VIRTUAL GUIDED EXPERIENCE I am a trained Red Cross Advanced Wilderness First Responder and trained wilderness guide with Outdoors Unlimited, Desert Survivors and Sierra Club. My partner is a badass level 5-11 rock climber and full time Van Lifer.   We are here as your "virtual tour guides" to guide you and give you advice, directions and guidance during your journey.  We're in our 60s and we remember life before the GPS, iPhone and Internet. That said, we are old and still managed to climb and walk around here -- so I'm sure you can manage too. A minivan or car camping with a tent will be fine here, but this is not a State Park, or a "glampground."  The Guide we give you when you reserve your space will give you details on how to pack, prepare, survive heat and cold, and directions to hot springs, swimming holes and hikes.  READ THE GUIDE AND ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU DRIVE HERE. Aquarius is not really that hard to reach, but it's not convenient, either. "The journey is the destination," and the drive is more amazing than the campsite itself. This is not "glamping" or a developed campground with wifi and services -- it is a destination for those of us who crave the rare and hard to find experience of total silence, serenity, dark sky and potent powerful land.   It's not for tourist who wants electricity, a faucet, hot shower, and a chlorinated pool -- it's for human BEings who want to firelight, starlight, moonlight, drinking from a well or spring, bathing in a hot spring and a natural spring fed swimming hole.  Remember life, not that long ago, when humans could communicate with each other, plants and animals, without words or devices. Come here for a personal vision quest, a personal transformational journey, for deep inner healing and reflection. When you remove the stress of traffic noise, light pollution, EMF, devices, the Internet, signs, radio waves, chemicals, pesticides, herbicides and all the interference of the modern world, you will remember, deep in your intercellular DNA -- what it means to be human.  You will discover how many stars, galaxies and solar systems are out there.  This alone could move you to tears. You will discover who you really are. Not alone in the Universe, and much more powerful than you have been told. THE SOUND OF SILENCE Have you ever been somewhere so quiet you can hear your heartbeat? It will happen here. This is not just one of the darkest places on Earth, it is one of the most silent. There is no electrical, noise or light interference -- an experience so rare in the modern world. Silence is unbelievably restorative.  Meditation and states of awareness, inspiration, soul purpose and a connection with Source happen spontaneously in this silence.  SOLITUDE You are unlikely to see another vehicle once you turn off the main Interstate.  Even if we are "busy" (4 or 5 campsites filled, but usually just one) you will find solitude easily if you just wander off a bit up the jeep trail or down one of the ravines.   SELF RELIANT CAMPSITES These are bare land, flat, drive in campsites and they are accessible with regular 2 wheel drive cars, camper vans or RVs -- or smaller pull behind trailers.   These pristine, bare wilderness campsites have large stone fire rings, and there is a shared, community wood pile.   The nearest gas/food is 7 miles away (at 80 mph) plus 14 miles at 20-40 mph. There is a well you can hike to, and there is drinkable water 1 mile down the road.  MOONLIGHT HIKING For a bright full moonlight hike to the hot spring or hiking the creek beds and canyons around the ranch in the cool of the night. You will not need a flashlight--the sand and canyon walls will reflect the moonlight and you can even see your moonshadow. It's fascinating to hike the desert in moonlight and see bats and other night creatures. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Accessible in a regular car These sites are 15 miles from the main Interstate freeway -- far enough to feel remote and totally silent with no light pollution and no traffic noise whatsoever.  This silence is worth the (spectacular) drive into the mountains.  Keep in mind it will take about 35 minutes to drive here off the freeway -- the journey is the destination. The drive is spectacular, Instagram worthy through the little traveled Aquarius Mountain range, and you will see wild animals so unaccustomed to human visitors that they stand in the road. DAY TRIP TO HOT SPRING There is a secret Hot Spring (no sulfur smell, 100 degrees clear water) and we will give you directions to drive to it in a regular 2WD car and hike in -- 1 mile, flat, easy walk on sand though a beautiful canyon.  NEARBY SWIMMING HOLES From our Base Camp, you can take day trips by a regular 2WD car to nearby swimming holes.  CAVES, PETROGLYPHS, CLIMBING  If you have a mountain bike, are a hiker, backpacker or have an ATV/4X4, (with short wheelbase and high clearance is best -- though Subaru Outbacks have done fine here) you can explore the surrounding vast and uncharted wilderness on miles of jeep trails.  The surrounding wilderness area has a deep creek that flows year round, waterfalls, deep blue pools and swimming holes.  There is much to explore here and very few people visit this area, so it is perfect for social distancing. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~* HIKE, BIKE OR AWD AND EXPLORE From here, if you want, you can continue into the ranch on a short wheelbase, high clearance 4x4 vehicle, (Subaru Outbacks have managed it), mountain bike,  or a horse. You can hike by foot with day pack or backpack for overnight camping on the three square miles of land of the ranch.   Please book "Isolation Point" if you plan to backpack overnight so we know you are out there. ~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* SUPERBLOOM WILDFLOWERS In the Spring, after rains, you will see fields of red, orange, gold, and purple wildflowers, including sweet scented white flowering agave, yellow flowered prickly pear, orange flowered cholla, red flowering Ocotillo, red Indian Paintbrush, fields of orange poppies, violet datura, and blooming purple sage.  Along the ride you will see blooming Joshua Trees, Barrel Cactus and endangered Saguaro and BLOOMING AGAVE FORESTS. Wow. They smell amazing. A BASE TO EXPLORE THE AREA We love using the ranch as a base to explore the Joshua Tree Highway, swimming in the creek, hot springs, Alamo Lake, going to the small towns in this lost and lonely part of America, abandoned mines and ghost towns, and wandering the dirt roads around here.  If you love the desert, like we do, you will find this a uncharted, wild, untouched, authentic and untouristy gem in the Southwest.  BE SELF RELIANT You must be self sufficient with water, food and a full tank of gas -- this is nothing in Nothing, Arizona. It is a very isolated area, even though it's only 3 miles "as the crow flies" from a busy Interstate and 7.5 miles from gas and food.  It's perfect for vans or small RVs and great for camping with a pop up shade structure or 10 x 10 with bug netting and a good cushy pad.   We reveal the specific maps you need, GPS coordinates, precise directions once you register. ABOVE THE HEAT, BUT MILD YEAR ROUND The ranch is up high above the heat at 3,900 - 5000 foot elevation, similar climate to Prescott at the higher parts of the ranch, weather like Wikieup in the lower elevations. Winter is clear and sunny with averages in 50s-60s daytime and lows of 30s-20s at night.   Daytime is mild and sunny 60-70 in January, but nights can dip down to 20s and if it's windy, it's brisk.  Spring is like a summer, in the 70s and 80s, with cool nights in the 50s.   Summer is blazing in the 100s down at the Highway -- but up here in the Aquarius Mountains, it is usually in the 90s, with nights in the 70s, more like Prescott. We get the most rain in the Summer, not the Winter. (Dramatic monsoon thunderstorms!) FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: CAN I BRING A DOG? Yes, and your pet can go unleashed and run -- but bring tweezers in the event that they step on a burr or cactus thorn. (Best to stay on trail.) Leash your pet at night, or bring her into your vehicle in Winter for her warmth and safety. DO I NEED SHADE? We recommend bringing shade for your campsite in Summer.  We are "Burning Man" desert camping veterans and used to being self reliant in the heat of the desert sun. Some folks like a sheet, tapestry or tarp fastened to their car, SUV, Van or RV. In Summer, bring a pop up shade structure with bug netting. CAN I HAVE A CAMPFIRE? Yes, as long as there are no restrictions. ARE THERE ANY TREES? For hanging out during the day, there is a nice cottonwood, aspen and gingko forest a short walk from the Base Camp--it is leafy in Spring/Summer and bare in the Winter/Fall. You can hike around and find shade, as the Primal humans did -- rocks, caves, and mesquite trees. BIRDWATCHING/WILDLIFE Because of the silence, distance from major roads, lack of fences and natural "bowl" of mountains surrounding from which to observe the distance, the ranch is a sanctuary for Endangered Species, many found only here.  If you sit still and very silent, the animals and birds will appear.  They are shy and will not bother or beg from you.   Often they will just stare at you, fascinated but unconcerned, as human visitors are so rare for them.  This is primal desert ecosystem, virtually uninhabited for decades. Wildlife abounds including 100 varieties of birds -- quail, blue jays, hawks, roadrunners, raven, owl, blue jays and wild turkey, even black hawks and bald eagles.  If you are silent, you will see desert cottontails, raccoon, skunks (spotted, striped, and hognose), mule deer, pronghorn antelope, elk, bighorn sheep, wild Mustang horses. You will see wild burros along the roads. (Bring binoculars!)   It is rare to find an ecosystem untouched by pesticide or herbicide in which so many species thrive. There are lizards, snakes, bees, dragonflies and butterflies. You will hear a symphony of cicadas, crickets and birds.   There are predators here but they don't bother humans. They are wild.  PETROGLYPHS AND CAVES Discover petroglyphs,  prehistoric sites, ancient lava fields, volcanic formations and caves, and feel like you are truly the last human (or the first) alive on Earth.  BIKING, HORSEBACK RIDING, AWD, OHV, QUADS Fat tire Mountain Biker's paradise with miles of winding dirt jeep roads to explore.   We can help you rent an off road vehicle tour from a local outfitter. GHOST TOWNS  The ghost town of Nothing, to the south has... almost nothing. Signal is another ghost town nearby.  HISTORIC SMALL TOWNS  Wikieup, about 10 miles North, has gas, RV dumping, great classic American road trip food (even great Chicago pizza and steak sandwiches at Dazzo's), homemade pie at Luchia's, and a Trading Post with Native American jewelry and art.   All the food around here is surprisingly good with eclectic decor and fun roadside attractions for the kids, like peacocks! Wickenburg, 50 miles south, has a great restaurant we love called Cowboy Cookin', and a big grocery store with block ice, water machine outside with filtered water.  Kingman, 60 miles north, is going hipster fast -- this town caters to tourists and truckers with all the services you need, like health food store, camping supplies and laundromat.  Bagdad is the nearest town as the crow flies if you are checking the weather.  Check out the Train Museum, historic downtown, Route 66, funky antique and secondhand clothing stores, flea markets, great tacos, two brew pubs, Black Ridge Brewery for live music. Desert Diamond Distillery for a tour of how Agave cactus is turned into Tequila.  Explore the magic of Aquarius Ranch and let us know what you discover

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!

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.

Right outside our entrance going North on 80th Street you can hike over to the Grapevine Wash which is a short walk away from the Cave Creek Town Trail System for hiking and horseback riding, and if you’re adventurous you can hike up 2 miles of a 800’ climb on a gravel road/trails to “Mexican Hat” for an even more incredible view! We are a 30 amp full hook up (sewer, water & electrical) for 33’ RV’s and living quarters horse trailers.

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 will be difficult to navigate.

Whether you’re rolling in with a big rig or pitching a tent, you’ll find a space that feels both open and welcoming.

Campfires are allowed at every site, lighting up nights under starry desert skies. When you’re ready to stretch your legs, meet the “locals”: the working ranch on-site is home to emus, chickens, turkeys, peacocks and even a giant Sulcata tortoise—adding a fun wild-west-meets-farm-feel to the stay.

The stars are unforgettable here. Dark sky stargazing in #2 darkest sky in USA. This remote and peaceful campsite gives you a backcountry wilderness experience you can reach in a regular car. Amateur astronomers love the stargazing and viewing the Milky Way with your bare eyes -- photo of Milky Way Galaxy here was taken at the site. Boatel class 2 -- in the International Dark Sky Zone. Book during a NEW MOON if you want to see stars like those in the photos here. Guests also enjoy the abundant wildlife, birdwatching, hiking and taking drives to a hot springs and swimming holes with waterfalls in the region. The area is also great for 4x4 exploration in your short wheelbase 4x4 or ATV. No visible city lights, no lighting on site, no passing car headlights, and no signs of civilization. No traffic noise whatsoever. Winter daytime weather in the 70s, sunny most of the time, 3000-5000 ft elevation and above the heat. REMOTE FEELING BUT FREEWAY CLOSE Our base camp site is a 35 minute scenic drive off of Highway 93, between Las Vegas and Phoenix, (2 1/2 hours either way) We are about 3 hours from the Grand Canyon and 45 miles from Prescott. We have a few campsites with fire rings you can safely drive to in a regular 2 wheel drive car, minivan, camper van or smaller (not monstrous) Pull behind trailers are ok if you have a truck. You can pull through the site. The rest of the ranch is 4x4, hike in camping only. Roads beyond the Base Camp and in surrounding wilderness are rugged and a great adventure for those with a Subaru, Jeep or ATV -- miles and miles of dirt roads in this adjacent 27,000 acre wilderness. BETWEEN PHOENIX AND VEGAS Aquarius Stargazing Ranch is in the Aquarius Mountains, 3 hours and 200 miles West of the Grand Canyon near the ghost town of Nothing, Arizona. We are 6 hours from Los Angeles or San Diego. We are halfway between Phoenix and Las Vegas, (2 1/2 hours between either city). WEATHER It is usually 10 - 20 degrees cooler than Wikieup or Phoenix. It rains more up here and there are trees and thick brush. Never snows, sunny year round. Summer brings spectacular Monsoon thunderstorms. ECOSYSTEM You will notice the landscape starkly changes as you drive from the Highway up into these steep and remote mountains. The ecosystem is a blend of Saguro Cactus, prickly pear, and cholla cactus, desert sagebrush, Southwestern hardwoods like mesquite and manzanita and deciduous leafy trees like Aspen, Gingko, Cottonwood, and Sycamore. Wildflowers are prolific in Spring and after rains. WILDLIFE Wildlife is abundant including endangered species like Bighorn Sheep, Wild Burro, Wild Horses, Pronghorn Antelope, Bald Eagle, Falcon, Great Horned Owl -- 150 species of birds. Bees, dragonflies and butterflies thrive here as no pesticide or herbicide has ever touched this land. This is a primal experience. No human habitation. SWIMMING HOLES NEARBY Surrounded on all sides by 27,000 acres of the very remote Upper Burro Creek wilderness through which a creek flows uninterrupted for 13 miles, year round, enabling wildlife to flourish and creating amazing swimming holes and waterfalls. There are also hot springs in this area. HIKING Hiking is easy and gentle on miles of roads and sandy washes, lovely trails made by wild deer, antelope, bighorn sheep, wild burros, and the occasional stray cow. ATV ADVENTURE There is also very challenging and rugged, steep, uphill off trail hiking for the adventurous explorer and miles of 4x4 trails to explore in the surrounding Burro Creek wilderness. PRISTINE, SACRED LAND We consider ourselves guardians of this sacred land. Our intention is to preserve this absolutely pristine, untouched and virtually uninhabited land as a wildlife corridor for future generations, and develop it only according to ecological Permaculture principles. We also intend to protect the wild horses and wild animals that roam freely here. As you walk the road that heads into the higher mountain region of the land where volcanic peaks reach above 5,000 feet, you will notice that it is an natural bowl that protects a seasonal stream and canyon. HISTORY Native tribes lived here because it was a defensible and safe haven, it is truly a natural fortress of red rock and granite. Before that, dinosaurs roamed this region of Arizona and fossilized remains are evident, as well as petroglyphs. Nearby Wikieup was once the settlement of the Hualapai Indians, also known as Walapais. The Native Americans used to cultivate corn and other food crops aided by the rich, river-nourished soil of the valley. They had fierce rivals in the tribe of the Tonto Apaches. Mostly, the two tribes did not seek disputes with each other but all that changed with the coming of the settlers, and later, the Gold Rush and miners. The settlement of the settlers pushed both tribes farther from their source of livelihood. This resulted in disputes between the white men, the Yavapai Apaches, and the Hualapais. The natural fortress like formation of the canyon on the ranch was an important refuge because it was easily defensible. We have found artifacts making it obvious that this was inhabited by aboriginal tribal humans before the Native Americans. Perhaps the land has not changed significantly since then. Dinosaurs roamed Northern Arizona before that, and this sandy region was once a sea. It does look like an ocean without water. Explore magical Aquarius and let us know what you discover. Learn more about this land: You aren't just here for camping.  You are here for transformation. "Hipcamp Finalist - Best in Arizona - 2019" * * * * * * * * * * * * Guests have described Aquarius Stargazing Ranch as: A deeply powerful experience. A spiritual experience. A life-altering experience. Silent, mystical and powerful land. Silence. Serenity. Dark, starry skies. Log off your devices, get way off the grid, and go deep into a remote wilderness that is easily accessible in your 2WD RV, van or car.  Surrender to the silence. So quiet you will hear your heartbeat.  Log off, do a digital detox, leave your electronics behind and tune into a higher frequency.  Clear your head of the clutter of city life, and empty it out here.  Primal -- yet not really that far away from the Interstate 93/11 (35 minutes), Los Angeles (6 1/2 hours), Las Vegas (2 1/2 hours), Metro Phoenix (2 hours), Prescott (1 hour,) the Grand Canyon or Sedona (3 hours.) Our reviews are mixed because Aquarius Ranch is not for everyone.  If you want electricity, pavement, trash cans, street lights, bug zappers, Netflix, hot showers, dumping stations and a liquor store -- please don't come here, you'll hate it! If you want to... take a bath alone with your sweetie in a primal geothermal hot spring, swim in a natural spring fed swimming hole, walk barefoot on white sand illuminated by moonlight, follow animal footprints instead of written signs, navigate by stars, hike to a spring or a well for fresh water, watch the flames dance and listen to the Cicadas....if you want a 5 BILLION STAR experience.... Aquarius is for you. Read on. This is a 2,000 acre, State Park-level beauty, Dark Sky wildlife sanctuary-- uninhabited for over 50 years and never developed.  There is nothing here and that's what you came for. (The nearest town is, indeed, Nothing, Arizona.) The only signs of humans are arrowheads, caves, petroglyphs. The only evidence of the 21st Century are satellites. (Airplanes are rare.) You will see dinosaur fossils embedded in sandstone.  It is literally a Jurassic Park. The land has a very high frequency as it is covered with pink quartz crystals. I want to make sure you "get" why you are coming here, and are prepared. Aquarius is a journey -- not a destination. Yes, it's hard to find and you can't just use your GPS. Sorry.  Put your iPhone away unless you're taking photos or using Satellite to navigate with maps you downloaded in advance.   There are no signs and the only trail markers are rock cairns. You're going to have to rediscover how to use a map and follow directions. As you hike, you will remember how to observe the stars and the sky and the shadows of sun.  This is part of your DNA, it is part of your soul as a human.  You'll remember Aquarius. Your soul has been here before.  Have you ever seen the Milky Way Galaxy?  We are in the Earth's second darkest "dark sky" region.  The photo of the sky here was taken by a guest! You can see the Milky Way here with your naked eyes.  *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* A VIRTUAL GUIDED EXPERIENCE I am a trained Red Cross Advanced Wilderness First Responder and trained wilderness guide with Outdoors Unlimited, Desert Survivors and Sierra Club. My partner is a badass level 5-11 rock climber and full time Van Lifer.   We are here as your "virtual tour guides" to guide you and give you advice, directions and guidance during your journey.  We're in our 60s and we remember life before the GPS, iPhone and Internet. That said, we are old and still managed to climb and walk around here -- so I'm sure you can manage too. A minivan or car camping with a tent will be fine here, but this is not a State Park, or a "glampground."  The Guide we give you when you reserve your space will give you details on how to pack, prepare, survive heat and cold, and directions to hot springs, swimming holes and hikes.  READ THE GUIDE AND ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU DRIVE HERE. Aquarius is not really that hard to reach, but it's not convenient, either. "The journey is the destination," and the drive is more amazing than the campsite itself. This is not "glamping" or a developed campground with wifi and services -- it is a destination for those of us who crave the rare and hard to find experience of total silence, serenity, dark sky and potent powerful land.   It's not for tourist who wants electricity, a faucet, hot shower, and a chlorinated pool -- it's for human BEings who want to firelight, starlight, moonlight, drinking from a well or spring, bathing in a hot spring and a natural spring fed swimming hole.  Remember life, not that long ago, when humans could communicate with each other, plants and animals, without words or devices. Come here for a personal vision quest, a personal transformational journey, for deep inner healing and reflection. When you remove the stress of traffic noise, light pollution, EMF, devices, the Internet, signs, radio waves, chemicals, pesticides, herbicides and all the interference of the modern world, you will remember, deep in your intercellular DNA -- what it means to be human.  You will discover how many stars, galaxies and solar systems are out there.  This alone could move you to tears. You will discover who you really are. Not alone in the Universe, and much more powerful than you have been told. THE SOUND OF SILENCE Have you ever been somewhere so quiet you can hear your heartbeat? It will happen here. This is not just one of the darkest places on Earth, it is one of the most silent. There is no electrical, noise or light interference -- an experience so rare in the modern world. Silence is unbelievably restorative.  Meditation and states of awareness, inspiration, soul purpose and a connection with Source happen spontaneously in this silence.  SOLITUDE You are unlikely to see another vehicle once you turn off the main Interstate.  Even if we are "busy" (4 or 5 campsites filled, but usually just one) you will find solitude easily if you just wander off a bit up the jeep trail or down one of the ravines.   SELF RELIANT CAMPSITES These are bare land, flat, drive in campsites and they are accessible with regular 2 wheel drive cars, camper vans or RVs -- or smaller pull behind trailers.   These pristine, bare wilderness campsites have large stone fire rings, and there is a shared, community wood pile.   The nearest gas/food is 7 miles away (at 80 mph) plus 14 miles at 20-40 mph. There is a well you can hike to, and there is drinkable water 1 mile down the road.  MOONLIGHT HIKING For a bright full moonlight hike to the hot spring or hiking the creek beds and canyons around the ranch in the cool of the night. You will not need a flashlight--the sand and canyon walls will reflect the moonlight and you can even see your moonshadow. It's fascinating to hike the desert in moonlight and see bats and other night creatures. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Accessible in a regular car These sites are 15 miles from the main Interstate freeway -- far enough to feel remote and totally silent with no light pollution and no traffic noise whatsoever.  This silence is worth the (spectacular) drive into the mountains.  Keep in mind it will take about 35 minutes to drive here off the freeway -- the journey is the destination. The drive is spectacular, Instagram worthy through the little traveled Aquarius Mountain range, and you will see wild animals so unaccustomed to human visitors that they stand in the road. DAY TRIP TO HOT SPRING There is a secret Hot Spring (no sulfur smell, 100 degrees clear water) and we will give you directions to drive to it in a regular 2WD car and hike in -- 1 mile, flat, easy walk on sand though a beautiful canyon.  NEARBY SWIMMING HOLES From our Base Camp, you can take day trips by a regular 2WD car to nearby swimming holes.  CAVES, PETROGLYPHS, CLIMBING  If you have a mountain bike, are a hiker, backpacker or have an ATV/4X4, (with short wheelbase and high clearance is best -- though Subaru Outbacks have done fine here) you can explore the surrounding vast and uncharted wilderness on miles of jeep trails.  The surrounding wilderness area has a deep creek that flows year round, waterfalls, deep blue pools and swimming holes.  There is much to explore here and very few people visit this area, so it is perfect for social distancing. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~* HIKE, BIKE OR AWD AND EXPLORE From here, if you want, you can continue into the ranch on a short wheelbase, high clearance 4x4 vehicle, (Subaru Outbacks have managed it), mountain bike,  or a horse. You can hike by foot with day pack or backpack for overnight camping on the three square miles of land of the ranch.   Please book "Isolation Point" if you plan to backpack overnight so we know you are out there. ~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* SUPERBLOOM WILDFLOWERS In the Spring, after rains, you will see fields of red, orange, gold, and purple wildflowers, including sweet scented white flowering agave, yellow flowered prickly pear, orange flowered cholla, red flowering Ocotillo, red Indian Paintbrush, fields of orange poppies, violet datura, and blooming purple sage.  Along the ride you will see blooming Joshua Trees, Barrel Cactus and endangered Saguaro and BLOOMING AGAVE FORESTS. Wow. They smell amazing. A BASE TO EXPLORE THE AREA We love using the ranch as a base to explore the Joshua Tree Highway, swimming in the creek, hot springs, Alamo Lake, going to the small towns in this lost and lonely part of America, abandoned mines and ghost towns, and wandering the dirt roads around here.  If you love the desert, like we do, you will find this a uncharted, wild, untouched, authentic and untouristy gem in the Southwest.  BE SELF RELIANT You must be self sufficient with water, food and a full tank of gas -- this is nothing in Nothing, Arizona. It is a very isolated area, even though it's only 3 miles "as the crow flies" from a busy Interstate and 7.5 miles from gas and food.  It's perfect for vans or small RVs and great for camping with a pop up shade structure or 10 x 10 with bug netting and a good cushy pad.   We reveal the specific maps you need, GPS coordinates, precise directions once you register. ABOVE THE HEAT, BUT MILD YEAR ROUND The ranch is up high above the heat at 3,900 - 5000 foot elevation, similar climate to Prescott at the higher parts of the ranch, weather like Wikieup in the lower elevations. Winter is clear and sunny with averages in 50s-60s daytime and lows of 30s-20s at night.   Daytime is mild and sunny 60-70 in January, but nights can dip down to 20s and if it's windy, it's brisk.  Spring is like a summer, in the 70s and 80s, with cool nights in the 50s.   Summer is blazing in the 100s down at the Highway -- but up here in the Aquarius Mountains, it is usually in the 90s, with nights in the 70s, more like Prescott. We get the most rain in the Summer, not the Winter. (Dramatic monsoon thunderstorms!) FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: CAN I BRING A DOG? Yes, and your pet can go unleashed and run -- but bring tweezers in the event that they step on a burr or cactus thorn. (Best to stay on trail.) Leash your pet at night, or bring her into your vehicle in Winter for her warmth and safety. DO I NEED SHADE? We recommend bringing shade for your campsite in Summer.  We are "Burning Man" desert camping veterans and used to being self reliant in the heat of the desert sun. Some folks like a sheet, tapestry or tarp fastened to their car, SUV, Van or RV. In Summer, bring a pop up shade structure with bug netting. CAN I HAVE A CAMPFIRE? Yes, as long as there are no restrictions. ARE THERE ANY TREES? For hanging out during the day, there is a nice cottonwood, aspen and gingko forest a short walk from the Base Camp--it is leafy in Spring/Summer and bare in the Winter/Fall. You can hike around and find shade, as the Primal humans did -- rocks, caves, and mesquite trees. BIRDWATCHING/WILDLIFE Because of the silence, distance from major roads, lack of fences and natural "bowl" of mountains surrounding from which to observe the distance, the ranch is a sanctuary for Endangered Species, many found only here.  If you sit still and very silent, the animals and birds will appear.  They are shy and will not bother or beg from you.   Often they will just stare at you, fascinated but unconcerned, as human visitors are so rare for them.  This is primal desert ecosystem, virtually uninhabited for decades. Wildlife abounds including 100 varieties of birds -- quail, blue jays, hawks, roadrunners, raven, owl, blue jays and wild turkey, even black hawks and bald eagles.  If you are silent, you will see desert cottontails, raccoon, skunks (spotted, striped, and hognose), mule deer, pronghorn antelope, elk, bighorn sheep, wild Mustang horses. You will see wild burros along the roads. (Bring binoculars!)   It is rare to find an ecosystem untouched by pesticide or herbicide in which so many species thrive. There are lizards, snakes, bees, dragonflies and butterflies. You will hear a symphony of cicadas, crickets and birds.   There are predators here but they don't bother humans. They are wild.  PETROGLYPHS AND CAVES Discover petroglyphs,  prehistoric sites, ancient lava fields, volcanic formations and caves, and feel like you are truly the last human (or the first) alive on Earth.  BIKING, HORSEBACK RIDING, AWD, OHV, QUADS Fat tire Mountain Biker's paradise with miles of winding dirt jeep roads to explore.   We can help you rent an off road vehicle tour from a local outfitter. GHOST TOWNS  The ghost town of Nothing, to the south has... almost nothing. Signal is another ghost town nearby.  HISTORIC SMALL TOWNS  Wikieup, about 10 miles North, has gas, RV dumping, great classic American road trip food (even great Chicago pizza and steak sandwiches at Dazzo's), homemade pie at Luchia's, and a Trading Post with Native American jewelry and art.   All the food around here is surprisingly good with eclectic decor and fun roadside attractions for the kids, like peacocks! Wickenburg, 50 miles south, has a great restaurant we love called Cowboy Cookin', and a big grocery store with block ice, water machine outside with filtered water.  Kingman, 60 miles north, is going hipster fast -- this town caters to tourists and truckers with all the services you need, like health food store, camping supplies and laundromat.  Bagdad is the nearest town as the crow flies if you are checking the weather.  Check out the Train Museum, historic downtown, Route 66, funky antique and secondhand clothing stores, flea markets, great tacos, two brew pubs, Black Ridge Brewery for live music. Desert Diamond Distillery for a tour of how Agave cactus is turned into Tequila.  Explore the magic of Aquarius Ranch and let us know what you discover

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!

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.

Welcome to Red Rock Roping! Where you will be a close 3 mile drive to old town Cave Creek restaurants, bars, and shopping strip. But far enough to enjoy a quiet and peaceful scenery of mountains, sunsets and sunrises. Don’t forget to kick your feet up, and end your night to enjoy a wide open view of the stars! Also, keep your eyes open for desert critters such as rattlesnakes, tarantulas, scorpions, deer, road runners, bob cats, and coyotes. We ask please do not pet, catch, feed or leave any food out that will attract them. Enjoy them from a picture away :) Our 2 accessible acres will give you 360 view of mountains, our Red Rock Roping arena, and a Saloon to gather under to enjoy cool refreshments, and a meal with your friends/family. Right outside our entrance going North on 80th Street you can hike over to the Grapevine Wash which is a short walk away from the Cave Creek Town Trail System for hiking and horseback riding, and if you’re adventurous you can hike up 2 miles of a 800’ climb on a gravel road/trails to “Mexican Hat” for an even more incredible view! We are a 30 amp full hook up (sewer, water & electrical) for 33’ RV’s and living quarters horse trailers. You will also have access to our community laundry area, with a large garbage can to dump a bag if needed. Some suggestions for town; Grab some quick delicous breakfast and coffee at Janey’s. Or American cuisine lunch at The Horny Toad, a Mexican cuisine dinner while watching the turtles in the pond at El Encanto! Ofrenda, right at the end of the road, also has great authentic Mexican cuisine. Many restaurants to choose from all within a short drive. Bashas, Safeway, Target, and Walmart and Sprouts are all within a 3-6 mile drive too! We have two turnout pens for horses. That are located right behind where you will park your trailer. They both have a cover that provides some shade, as well as running water. We do not provide any feed, so please make sure you bring some! We ask that you please do not feed any horses that do not belong to you. Or go into any pen that your horse is not in. For safety and respect :) Thank you in advance. (Horse turnouts are an extra $25 each/per night)

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 will be difficult to navigate.
