Enjoy campfires, mountain views and nature on this one acre property with easy access less than a mile from Highway 64. This campsite is 3.7 miles from Grand Canyon Junction for food, gas, water, and supplies, and 30 miles to Grand Canyon National Park.
There are two sites with fire pits and campfires are allowed but may be restricted during certain times when warm temperatures and high winds are forecasted. Please bring a shovel to clear the fire pit out if there is sand or leftover wood in it.

From Highway 64, travel 0.85 miles east on Pine Rd to reach the property. The dirt road has some bumps but is accessible with a 2WD car when the road is dry but 4WD is recommended when there is snow or rain.
Also, since you will be traveling on an unmarked dirt road, it is advised to reach the campsite before dark so it easier to locate.
There are no toilets or water so campers will need to bring their own accommodations. Pack in and pack out policy applies.
Please check if there are any fire restrictions at the time of your visit and always adhere to state and local fire restrictions.

It’s time to get wild in the wild west! Head into the red rocks, pines, deserts, and canyons and sink your soul into some vast and untrammelled land that is beyond amazing. Kaibab National Forest has got what you need for a Northern Arizona getaway no matter what you are looking for. With three distinct areas: Williams, Tusayan, and North Kaibab, this diverse place will leave you with a perma-smile and a wild streak you didn’t know you had. Also, wait for it...this forest borders both the north and south side of Grand Canyon National Park! For all the epicness that the Grand Canyon offers (some of the trails actually follow the rim of the canyon!) without the tourists and crowds, come here and feel like you hit the jackpot. There’s really no other way to say it. You just gotta see it for yourself!

Great private and secluded site. GPS led us right to the spot. It was fairly easy for a rookie like myself to find. Great location in proximity to Grand Canyon. I’d highly recommend it to anyone!

Luis's spot was a beautiful stop on the start of a long week of national park visiting! The field was clear and level. It was a little challenging to navigate to the site itself, as we arrived around 10 pm and it was quite dark, but both Apple and Google Maps brought us to the right spot. Would recommend a vehicle with decent ground clearance to get to the site - my 4Runner did great. Overall, would definitely book again! Thanks!

Very quiet. Scenery is beautiful. Sunsets are spectacular. My GPS took me to the exact location. It was a clear lot, with plenty of space for my 3 kids and a 9 person tent. If y are looking for solitude but not far from a town or other people, this is the place. Would definitely book again.

I had a last minute emergency with my pup and Kevin was super accommodating and responsive. This really is just a straight shot to the Grand Canyon though which is convenient. I can’t wait to check out some of his land in Cali!
