3 nights at KAL Ranch

I loved parking my little trailer on Kevin's property in Strawberry, AZ. The views around his ranch are beautiful. It's very quiet as well. Kevin was very responsive, and the place was easy to find. It was so nice to have access to a bathroom/toilet/shower on his property, as well as a little fridge. His fee was very reasonable. Access to his gym/weights/machines was an added bonus. What a great find! I highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to 1/2 Glamp - 1/2 Camp - 100% Relax.

We had such a wonderful stay! The host was incredibly friendly and responded quickly to any questions, which made everything great. The campsite itself was absolutely beautiful! peaceful and surrounded by nature. Lots of trinkets and tools for use. A lot of wildlife in the area. Many coyotes at night but did not bother us or come that close. The site feels secluded but also conveniently close to town, so we had the best of both worlds. We also really appreciated the generous amount of firewood provided, which made our evenings around the fire even better! The road to the campsite is a little rough but could be cause of the rain. I highly recommend this spot. Lots of good hiking around the area like Tonto national park. Thanks Paul!

2 nights at KAL Ranch

My husband and I and our 3 dogs spent 2 nights on Kevin's land in Strawberry. The area is peaceful and very quiet and his 5 acres are private and beautiful. The property is easy to find. Kevin is great to work with and answered all my questions very quickly. He even invited me to pick some of his beautiful roses to make our trailer smell like a rose garden. Having a "real shower" to use was a nice touch after doing a workout in his gym. We intend to return for another visit. Thanks Kevin!!

Weekend Trip to Tent Camp at Tuck & Bird Ranch

We had an absolutely amazing time, the tent set up was beautiful! Marissa was always quick to respond, despite being on a trip herself :) The blackstone grill and utensils were perfect for cooking our meals. We were even visited by the sweetest dogs on the property. It was a short drive to tonto creek where we hiked and swam. I would definitely recommend this place and would book again!
