1 night at Wits End Ranch

Beautiful and peaceful and everything you would need for camping the site was exactly how it was described and it was perfect! I came out to celebrate my birthday and this was exactly what I was looking for. The directions were perfect and clear the host was great at keeping contact with me up to when I arrived to the site and departed . Bathrooms and shower were prefect and clean. I’m already planning my next trip out.

Weekend Trip to Righteous Ranch

The owner was very friendly. He gave me some camping stuffs. It had enough space to have tent, fire.

3 nights at Magic in the Mohave

We tent camped for 3 nights and it was absolutely beautiful! It was pretty hot during the days so definitely recommend bringing extra sun shades / canopy’s. Very quiet and secluded which we loved. The sunsets and stars were amazing. Would highly recommend!

6 nights at Desert's Edge at Lake Havasu

I think the best thing to say is, "this the only place we'll stay in Havasu." From Dan the host, the camp site and the location it can not be beat. Thank you Dan for a wonderful stay.

Weekend Trip to Secluded Alamo Lake Santuary

Unfortunately I had to cancel on very short notice due to an emergency. I was very clear I did not expect a refund from Jen, and I still don’t because she is not responsible nor should she be penalized for something neither of us could control. That being said, the lead up to my stay she answered all my questions and provided a lot of information that would have made my stay very good I think. So I will rebook once all is settled.

1 night at Magic in the Mohave

Beautiful, charming campgrounds. Albeit feeling like “the middle of nowhere” once you brave the rumble of the dirt road you’re greeted by lit Joshua trees and a lovely common area. It was so quiet! Toilet is clean, with a lovely view. Will certainly book again if I’m ever needing a place while cruising the 40.

Weekend Trip to Wits End Ranch

This was our second stay at Wits End, specifically Cattle King’s overlook. We just couldn’t believe the perfect weather and incredible stars at night. This Is tent glamping at its best. We were traveling through on an off road SXS trip on nearby Arizona Peace Trail. Comfortable, convenient, and clean bathrooms and showers.

1 night at Secluded Alamo Lake Santuary

The yurts were very cute and clean. They had working bathrooms and showers and a nice out door BBQ area.

1 night at Cowboy Cabins And Horseback Riding

Host friendly, and was available for questions upon our late arrival. The place is brand new, spacious and warm. Beautiful views, quiet. Beds were comfortable. Recommend!

2 nights at Magic in the Mohave

There is camping and there is the elevated experience that Abi offers. The site is more than we hoped for: - The small kitchen and shade area was whimsical and practical. It felt like we were having dinner on a friend's patio. - The outhouse was cleaner than any trail or state park bathroom I've ever used. - The raised campsite area creates an ideallic view of sunsets and purple mountains and a platform for stargazing by the fire pit. - We loved the nature trails that looped around the property. They enhance the desert experience. Our dogs loved all of the new smells and the freedom that most campsites do not afford them. - There was so much creativity on this property: hidden curiosities everywhere you looked, warm desert colored designs. - The campsite was very easy to get to, we live a few hours away and just wanted some unwind time. We had full phone service the whole time. Abi's property sings while other campsites are unremarkable. She has found a way to convey everything there is to love about the desert - it's life, it's colors, it's creativity, it's freedom. Truly, my husband and I will be talking about this two night experience for the rest of our lives.

4 nights at Wits End Ranch

It was amazing. Bathrooms were clean showers were hot. Nice walks and hikes close by. It was a slice of heaven.

Weekend Trip to Desert's Edge at Lake Havasu

Wow! What a beautiful area to explore! And Dan, such a perfect host. He’ll respect your privacy if that’s all you want, but if you ask or inquiry I’m certain he’ll be happy to take you kayaking/paddle boarding in the nearby Lake Havasu, which is very cool! We trekked through sea caves and saw a baby owl in the big cliffs bordering the river, and had a couple beers and good conversation with Dan while bass were jumping all around us.. Also if you are into rock collecting, which, prior to our stay I was not.. this is place is rock heaven.. Seriously, Dan will tell you all about it! Phenomenal stay, will likely return when life permits. Cheers, Dan!

Weekend Trip to Golden Valley Getaway

My second time camping here. Very affordable and convenient - right off I-40. The campsite is easier to find in daylight.

Weekend Trip to Cowboy Cabins And Horseback Riding

This was our first time visiting Arizona. The views and sights heading towards the cowboy ranch were incredible 🏜️The signage was clear and easy to find/follow. The adorable little town had wild donkeys 🫏 and the campsite was just as described!!! We had everything we needed and extra bedding. The host was most gracious and we loved the morning horseback ride!!!! Recommend 💯 😁

7 nights at Wits End Ranch

Good spot! Great terrain and place is totally private. I’m a Jeeper so really liked surrounding area. And there were some really awesome flyovers provided by the military.

3 nights at Wits End Ranch

I loved my stay there. The cabin was clean and warm and equipped for everything. It was a little slice of heaven so quiet ,peaceful and clean. Bathrooms were clean and showers were hot . It was just a wonderful place to catch your breath!

Weekend Trip to Pretty Little Pal O' Mine

Not accessible for RVs, we were not able to reach the area.

Weekend Trip to Secluded Alamo Lake Santuary

The property location and campsites were awesome! Close to Alamo Lake and great scenery. Roads are a little bumpy on the ride in, so make sure to have a Jeep or other capable vehicle. The land has an amazing history, so be sure to take the mine and ghost town tour to learn more about it. Jen was a great host, and is extremely helpful with whatever you need. I would highly recommend this spot if you want to be a little more secluded from the crowds of the state park area of Alamo Lake. Can’t wait to go back, and next time I’ll take a telescope to view the stars in all of their splendor in truly dark skies you don’t experience near the cities. A+ overall experience.

2 nights at Secluded Alamo Lake Santuary

The trip was amazing! The owner was super nice and friendly. They were super helpful with anything we needed and showed us the best places to fish and hike. Overall the trip was excellent. Had an amazing view and campsite was awesome. Will be coming back here. Would 100% recommend it. 10/10 experience!

1 night at Secluded Alamo Lake Santuary

Very rustic. Quiet and restorative. Jen has incredible passion for her amazing mission. This stay was the highlight of our AZPT adventure.

My mother bought the land in 1959 as a wedding present for my father. She bought it sight unseen and has never seen the property. I moved out west and decided to go find it. I found it and fell in love with it. I scooped some dirt and sent it back east to my mother and told her she can't say she never saw the land now. I have since bought the property. I plan to develop it one day but want to enjoy the pure raw state it is in now. Pure nature. At rush hour time of the day you can stand on the land and hear the ringing in your ears and an occasional wild burro off in the distance. It is so peaceful and the skies at night are breathtaking. Millions of stars.Learn more about this land:Come park right on the property. Pitch your tent, break out your grill or dig a fire pit. Plenty of stones around to line the pit. This is completely roughing it. Wide open spaces close to the foot of the Black Mountains. Trails and caves to explore in the mountains. Beautiful mountain view with excellent stargazing opportunities at night. This property is approximately 10 miles off the main road and approximately 20 minutes one side of Laughlin Nevada casinos and gaming and 20 minutes the other direction to Kingman Arizona with grocery and convenience stores, truck stop, post office and more.Access to land is a little rough.
