Welcome to Red Rock Roping! Where you will be a close 3 mile drive to old town Cave Creek restaurants, bars, and shopping strip. But far enough to enjoy a quiet and peaceful scenery of mountains, sunsets and sunrises. Don’t forget to kick your feet up, and end your night to enjoy a wide open view of the stars! Also, keep your eyes open for desert critters such as rattlesnakes, tarantulas, scorpions, deer, road runners, bob cats, and coyotes. We ask please do not pet, catch, feed or leave any food out that will attract them. Enjoy them from a picture away :)
Our 2 accessible acres will give you 360 view of mountains, our Red Rock Roping arena, and a Saloon to gather under to enjoy cool refreshments, and a meal with your friends/family. Right outside our entrance going North on 80th Street you can hike over to the Grapevine Wash which is a short walk away from the Cave Creek Town Trail System for hiking and horseback riding, and if you’re adventurous you can hike up 2 miles of a 800’ climb on a gravel road/trails to “Mexican Hat” for an even more incredible view! We are a 30 amp full hook up (sewer, water & electrical) for 33’ RV’s and living quarters horse trailers. You will also have access to our community laundry area, with a large garbage can to dump a bag if needed.
Some suggestions for town; Grab some quick delicous breakfast and coffee at Janey’s. Or American cuisine lunch at The Horny Toad, a Mexican cuisine dinner while watching the turtles in the pond at El Encanto! Ofrenda, right at the end of the road, also has great authentic Mexican cuisine. Many restaurants to choose from all within a short drive. Bashas, Safeway, Target, and Walmart and Sprouts are all within a 3-6 mile drive too!
We have two turnout pens for horses. That are located right behind where you will park your trailer. They both have a cover that provides some shade, as well as running water. We do not provide any feed, so please make sure you bring some! We ask that you please do not feed any horses that do not belong to you. Or go into any pen that your horse is not in. For safety and respect :) Thank you in advance.

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.

The RV pad is built on the entire right side of the property from the street to back, so it's very private.

It's separated via brick wall in back and on the right, along with vinyl fence, and pool fencing on the left.

Your RV pad is 80 feet long and 20 feet wide. In addition, you have approx. 20'x20' brick patio, gas fire pit, and artificial grass for chairs, table, and outdoor living space.

We loved our time in Ash Creek. A beautiful, unique hideaway! We had fun exploring the area, found some great swimming holes and amazing stars. Andy is a great host, gave us an informative tour when we arrived that kept my kids’ attention, delivered a massive log for our fire and answered any questions we had. Highly recommend!

The lot is expansive with several places to put your trailer. I had a pop up trailer. I was only there one night. While you are in a rural environment, you are within 10 minutes of filling suburban living needs like groceries, restaurants and gas stations. It was quiet at night. Great host.

Absolutely loved staying here. Easy parking. I'm new at driving a motorhome and I was able to back in just fine here with my 40 foot class C. The place was perfect for us to feel like the space was our own. There was a laundry area available for our use. I enjoyed not being in a crowded rv park and was able to relax more and let our dog hang out more freely. Recommend this place and will definitely come back.

This was by far one of our top favorite camping trips for my sons and I. I want to tell EVERYONE how wonderful and amazing it was but I am afraid everyone will want to go. I’ll call it my best kept secret ;) camp host was so amazing when we arrived and gave us a tour. We went exploring and hiking the next couple days and made some beautiful memories. I have nothing negative to say about this spot. It was breathtakingly beautiful and the camp sites all held their own beauty of the canyon.
