Julie’s property is private, clean and well maintained.
This was our 3rd stay at this property and we look forward to the stay every time.
We always have a relaxing time while we are on property and enjoy the views and all of the scenery near by. Traffic in the area is extremely light with groceries and shopping close
Excited for our stay next year.
Julie is a welcoming host and it has always been great to see her when we arrive.

This spot was fantastic!! Nice and private on our part and the hosts part. We did not feel like we were intruding on her space and she kept her distance making us feel like it was our own private spot. The views were beautiful. It was nice being in town and close to everything but not feeling like we were in the middle of the city! The animals were a huge bonus. Our boys loved seeing them and hearing them every morning. The communication was fantastic. The rules/expectations were very clear and reasonable. We will definitely keep this in mind for future travels.

The hosts were very friendly and not only provided us with a wine tasting, but gave us a thorough tour of their wine making process.
We were invited to to hook up our RV to electricity and water, which always a plus on a warm day. Thank Dennis and Brie.

This is one of the most wonderful places I have ever stayed! Julie is a super host, so kind and checks in to be sure everything is in order. Great facility, private area separated from the house. Nothing else is available anywhere in the Santan Valley. Fenced area, great for dogs.

Jeffrey has many options for staying on his ranch with tiny houses and rv sites well spaced for privacy. The location reminds me of the Arizona I grew up in with dessert vistas and gorgeous sunsets. It was an affordable stay north of Phoenix.

It was a unique spot, very clean, organized. Jeffrey was a great host, considerate and made sure that our needs were met. Our site offered us a nice view of the mountains. Upon our departure Jeffrey surprised us with a carton of fresh eggs from his own hens. Thank you, Jeffrey.
The only thing we would have preferred was to have our car parked by our camper.

We enjoyed our stay at the Kinsey Farm! Becky and her family were friendly, but also gave us our privacy. They allowed us to have our family over during our stay and have a cookout, which was so nice! Our grandchildren enjoyed meeting all the farm animals. The electric and water hookups were conveniently placed and made our stay very pleasant. We can't wait to visit again!

We absolutely loved staying with Julie! Her property is quiet and secluded, but also so convenient to everything you could need. Julie is so nice! She welcomed us to the property and we had great conversations when we saw her on the ranch. The site is just as expected, easy to get in and to park. The power and water worked like a dream. We truly can’t wait to visit here again!

The best star host camping near Phoenix guide
Where to go
Lost Dutchman State Park
Journey to the Old West in this historical area 45 minutes outside Phoenix, Arizona. With stunning views of the Superstition Mountains, campers can adventure into marked trails suitable for all. For a bigger challenge, the 4-mile Siphon Draw Trail winds through a canyon reaching a 1,000-foot elevated basin that connects to the Flatiron. This trail at Lost Dutchman State Park is not maintained beyond the basin (so be aware of your surroundings), and it takes about 5-6 hours to complete. Retire for the night back at the Lost Dutchman Campground or a nearby Hipcamp.
Lake Pleasant Regional Park
Set up for some core camping memories at Lake Pleasant, where the water is glistening, the desert is sizzling, and the stars are shining. Whether tenting or RV camping, campers can hike, swim, boat, and picnic the day away. Explore canyons, rock walls, and underwater wildlife with some of the best inland scuba diving in the western United States, an epic way to cool off.
Tonto National Forest
Canyons, cacti, and creeks flow through Tonto National Forest, about one hour away from Phoenix. With surrounding mountains and the Valley of Tonto Creek at its core, this area provides acres of rugged landforms, desert vegetation, and diverse wildlife. Campers visit year-round for open-air, tent camping, RV hookups, horse camping, dispersed sites, and campgrounds. With 200 miles of Mogollon Rim and what the U.S. Department of Agriculture claims are some of the best trails in the country, be sure to grab a permit to fully enjoy this national forest.
When to go
The undeniable draw of Phoenix brings campers together to enjoy open air year-round. Whether you’re out on the lake, trekking through the desert, or snuggled by the campfire, every season provides epic camping spots. December to February or March to May are recommended for those looking to explore with a little less heat. Scorching summers reach average highs over 100°F in July and August, when you’ll want an AC unit.
