Pitch your tent or park your camper among towering Saguaros with stunning mountain views in every direction. Bring your camera or your horses! This is the perfect spot for relaxing, stargazing, and soaking in those famous Arizona sunsets. You’ll have a spacious, private campsite all to yourself—I only allow one booking at a time to ensure a peaceful and personal experience. Please note: This is a working horse ranch, which means you'll see fencing, trailers, and occasional activity from people helping keep the ranch running. While your campsite is private, our property is just over two acres—so you'll also see neighboring homes. If you're looking for complete solitude with no sights, sounds, or smells of ranch life, I recommend dispersed camping elsewhere. My 2.2-acre private horse ranch is home to: • 8 rescue horses • 2 donkeys • 8 mini pigs and a few chickens! …all ready to meet and greet! Trail access? Absolutely. Hiking and horseback riding trails lead directly from the property into Spur Cross Conservation Area—or take a short 10-minute drive to a main trailhead. Black Mountain Hiking Trail is also nearby and offers panoramic views of the valley. You can even ride your horse into town and tie up at the local cowboy bars! ⸻ A few things to note: • The landscape varies with the season—there won’t be green grass in the summer • Please keep pets away from cactus—they bite! • We’re located in a desert neighborhood, so please respect the nearby homes. My house and neighbors house will be in view from your campsite. • A horse corral (50 ft round pen) is available to rent—message me if interested! ⸻ Looking for more adventure? Lake Pleasant, Bartlett Lake, Tonto National Forest, Seven Springs, and other scenic destinations are a short drive away. Need supplies? Walmart, Lowe’s, Tractor Supply, and more are just 10 minutes down the road. Want to explore a truly unique cowboy town? Cave Creek is full of Old West charm, with saloons, quirky shops, live music, and horses sharing the road with motorcycles. Follow and tag us on Instagram: @margueritaranch

Weekend Trip to Marguerita Ranch

Macy’s place was perfect for us! Quick drive to get out of Phoenix. Not too rustic, plenty of creature comforts, yet out of town with VIEWS and peaceful country setting. The ranch animals were a hit for my little girl. It was a three minute drive back to town for morning coffee. Brought it back to the trailer and enjoyed the peaceful, quiet morning. Macy and family were very accommodating. Her place felt very safe. Pet friendly was a plus.

It was a great spot. The tent was very comfy and then indoor room and bathroom was nice. Unfortunately we went on a night where it was a rare overcast night so I cant speak to the view if the stars, but I would happily return and try again if I was in the area.

Weekend Trip to RV on Creekfront 3 Acre Retreat

This RV was a great getaway for me and my 10 yr old grandson. We were looking for someplace to go to get out of the city. This was just what we needed. It did rain the whole weekend so we weren’t able to enjoy the surroundings and all that was offered, but it still worked out great for us. We had a day trip planned for other activities that were close by. We brought some games with us to play in the evening. The area was peaceful and clean. Christina’s was aavailable to help us as needed. Over all it was a great experience.

This house is a wonderful base for exploring the Sedona area. It’s convenient to CottonWood, Camp Verde, the Village of Oak Creek, and anywhere in Sedona, which is just within a 30-minute drive away. The deck and creekside are my favorite spots—we enjoyed breakfast by the water in the mornings, and after a full day of exploring, we relaxed on the deck in the evening, cooking dinner and sipping tea or coffee. It felt so peaceful and cozy. The rooms are spacious and very clean, and the property has BBQ grills both in the yard and on the deck, along with everything you might need for a comfortable stay. The host also provides plenty of privacy, making the place feel like your own. If I return to Sedona, I would absolutely stay here again.

Weekend Trip to Sacred Springs-Private creek access

We stayed at Sacred Springs – Eagle Eye on our Sedona road trip, and it was such a special experience. Eagle Eye itself is a cozy sauna converted into a bedroom, overlooking the beautiful Montezuma Lake — the view alone is worth it! ✨ The grounds were incredibly well thought out, with unique little campsites spread throughout, each cared for with so much intention. Everything was very clean and well maintained, and the lighting around the property made it feel both safe and magical at night. The shared amenities were excellent — from the community room with a fridge, to the solar shower, regular shower, and clean bathrooms (such a gift after a long day of hiking in Sedona!). The hosts were warm and welcoming, and you could tell how much love has been put into this place. It was about a 45-minute drive for us to get into Sedona, which was perfect since we got both the quiet lakeside retreat and easy access to all the red rock adventures. Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for something serene, beautiful, and thoughtfully created. 🌿

We absolutely loved this place! We were a bit worried about the temperature but the Ac in the indoor and star gazing unit were both great! It was extremely clean. Having the indoor room was so nice to actually sleep in once we had finished stargazing. The yard was also beautiful. The only downfall were people walking by on the porch constantly and taking us by surprise. That could have been a bit more private.
