Gravel road to get there. 2.8 miles of it. Once there it was a wide open space. I ordered firewood. So glad I did. We had a guitar jam by the fire that was epic. Really felt the backroad of America vibe. We stayed 2 nights. 🎈

Loved this secluded canyon! Met Andrew by the highway, which was already way out there, then followed him on his quad in my 21' class-B van for 3 or 4 miles to campsite #2. Dislodged my low hanging generator on the rough road, but I knew it was a risk. Well worth it. This property had absolutely no noise or light pollution. It was an old mining town with several old mines still open to explore. I had an unforgettable few days secluded on this property. Zero cellular coverage with Verizon and Wi-Fi wasn't on while I was there. I thoroughly enjoyed my unplugged time. I will definitely be returning.

Nani was a remarkable host. Her land is quiet, clean and very pretty. She took the time to drive and meet us and escorted us to her campground. Each spot has a fire pit, picnic table and pad for tents. A really cute outhouse is in between the sites. She has built everything herself, which is quite impressive. She's a carpenter. I do want to note that it is a 9.5 mile drive down a non paved road. It is very ruddy and washboard. We've been boondocking for 7 years and have been on some challenging roads. But, if you are somewhat inexperienced or have a vehicle that isn't equipped for it, you should be aware before attempting. However, it was definitely worth the stay. Beautiful property, very kind hostess and super quiet.

This place was incredible! We loved every second spent on the property. It feels like you are in the middle of nowhere, even though the interstate is 5 miles away. Paula provided more than enough firewood, and a porta-potty within walking distance of the site. She stopped by in the morning to check on us, but aside from that, never saw another human. It was incredibly relaxing. Just a quiet night under the stars. The last portion of the trip is a bumpy dirt road, as others have mentioned, but I had my truck fully loaded with equipment, and never felt the need to move out of 2WD. You won’t need a 4x4 to get to the property. You WILL however want some daylight to make your way to camp, obviously.

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!

Our time at Richards land was a great experience. The art around the property was really cool to look at, the tent sites were all flat and spaced out well, and we even got to use his fire pit to have a bonfire. There were ducks, a turkey, the friendly yard dog, and even goats so it felt like a little farm experience. The host was very accommodating with everything we needed and I felt comfortable bringing my two children there. As we left, he even showed us around his greenhouse and sent us in our way with peppers, basil, green onion, and carrots. We really enjoyed our one night here.

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!

We absolutely loved our stay here! We were looking for somewhere beautiful and private to celebrate our anniversary and this exceeded our expectations. The tour at the start was so informative and we were able to find and explore all the places Andrew talked about. We spent quite a bit of time in Victory mine, found the underground waterfall, and hiked back to the swimming hole. He described the swimming hole as 'fairytale', and it truly was. We camped on the most beautiful site with amazing views of the canyon and towering bluffs. It was full moon and the site of that moon rising over the bluffs was breathtaking. This is truly one of the most beautiful, untouched places we have ever been and we hope to be back again someday.

This was a last-minute booking, and we’re so glad we chose Andrew’s place. He is a fantastic host who takes great pride in his land, his guests, and the history of what was once a thriving old mining town. Chrysotile is a stunning area with rich history, and our experience exceeded all expectations. We stayed at Site #1, which felt perfectly secluded for us. During our stay, we encountered an incredible variety of wildlife, including birds, deer, a skunk, and even a golden eagle. A highlight of the trip was a tour of one of the mines led by Chad, Andrew's caretaker—it was truly special. Our campsite was next to a running creek, where we spent most of our time relaxing, and we ended our days by driving to a plateau to witness breathtaking sunsets. Unfortunately, we didn’t make it to any of the waterfalls on the property, but there’s always next time. Andrew is putting so much effort into maintaining and sharing the beauty of this special place, and it shows. Just remember to pack light and take responsibility for packing out your waste to help preserve the canyon. If you’re looking for peace, solitude, and the chance to disconnect from the hustle and bustle, this is the perfect spot. Huge thanks to Andrew and Chad for being such wonderful hosts!

Beautiful desert land with incredible skies! The site is easy to get to but remote enough that you’ll feel secluded. Paula is a friendly host but you will mostly be left to enjoy the land and sky on your own. Road is a little rough getting out there but nothing 2WD can’t handle. Wind can be intense on the hill top and the ground is stony but plenty of large rocks to anchor with.

Ash Creek Canyon is a true hidden gem! As you dive into the rugged terrain of the canyon, a whole other world opens up. You can enjoy the tranquility of your own campsite or explore the old mine town that is spread out through the canyon. A big shout-out goes to Chad. He’s such a genuine and thoughtful guy, who took us on a little tour, while explaining the history of the different buildings and showing us the true beauty of the canyon. We’ll definitely be back!
