1 night at Shiloh Ranch Guesthouse

First of all Sandee was lovely and made us feel so very welcome. Situated on a property that has a main house and multiple guesthouses, my family stayed in the smaller guesthouse. All amenities available meant all our needs were met. The house had plenty of room for us. Our little dog was equally welcome. The ranch was far removed from noise and nonsense, but only 20 minutes from the Petrified Forest south entrance. A beautiful setting!

When we arrived and got settled, we were quickly comfortable and happy with our surroundings!!! It’s such an enchanting, peaceful, kind environment. I believe that anyone that comes to stay will enjoy the beauty and nature as we did! The animals were an amazing bonus!

Getting here was a little weird because the directions assumed you were coming from a certain direction. Easy to get turned around. There are 3 sites with electric. Sites 1 and 2 are alongside the brewery. Site 3 sits behind the brewery sort of amongst the debris of a business. Not scenic at all. The boondock sites looked better, but AZ in summer you have to have AC. The brewery and brew was great!

Sites are level. Easy access. Plenty of room. Brewery affordable and fun due to live music. Brewery closes at 9:00pm so no late night noise. Staff is very friendly. Owner responsive to texts. Super clean and quiet. It’s a great star watching place due to dark skies. 12 min from downtown Show Low. 30 min from Lakeside. Not in the Pine Tree area but rather in Junipers. We Highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Show Low AZ GreatSky CampRanch

I liked it. I will come back again. I especially liked their disbursed camping spaces. Spend out big spaces (big enough for my big-rig. The grounds were perfectly level and very clean. The "trees" were large junipers but trimmed to a single trunk and high so you could walk through them and see for some distance. There were some spaces with roadside noise but after it got dark there wasn't any traffic. There were clean restrooms and very strong wifi. My favorite amenity was the on-premesis bar. The "4sBARn" live music, tasty "4 Silos" microbrew (my favorite was the "Hazy Hallelujah," btw. I lucked out on Friday night and was able to join in on their weekly pool tournament. They had Diamond-brand pool tables (the best quality imo.) They had livestock and everyone always cares about fresh eggs so I can confirm they have eggs. After the first night I moved to a full hookup spot and that where the camp needs work. I believe there are 5 hookup sites. I was in site 3. Sites 1, 2, and 3 are all along-side the main "4sBARn" building. 1 and 2 were beside it and 3 was on the backside. 4 and 5 were more remote. Though the 1st 3 sites were near the bar I wouldn't worry about noise because the bar closes early. Site 1 and 2 could easily fit any size. My 36 ft tt had no issues with length but it was too narrow. Site 1,2,3 were convenient but poor views. The owner is currently building up the resort so they admit it is a work in progress. Future guests may have no issues.
