Show Low was named by the turn of a Card. A ranch of nearly 100,000 acres jointly owned by Marion Clark and Croydon Cooley a U.S. army scout. According to legend, sometime around 1876, the partners decided that there was not enough room for both of them
and one of them should leave. They decided to settle this issue over a game of "Seven Up" (with the winner taking the ranch and the loser leaving.) After the game seemed to have no winner in sight the game reached it's climax when
Clark said, "If you can show low, you win." At this point
Cooley turned up the deuce of clubs, and declared "Show Low" it is! Show Low
is a city in Navajo County, Arizona
among the lush green ponderosa pine forestland and along Arizona's Mogollon Rim at an elevation of 6,345 feet. Show Low is now the largest city in the White Mountains of northeastern Arizona. Show Low is also the business hub and marketing center of the area.

About the Property
Welcome to Juniper Hollow — a newly opened, privately owned camping destination offering a peaceful, small-scale nature escape and a tranquil base for exploring Arizona’s beautiful White Mountains.
Located on a quiet rural property, Juniper Hollow is thoughtfully being developed over time with the goal of creating a simple, relaxing connection with nature. Future plans include additional walking trails, dedicated tent camping areas, expanded gathering spaces, a rustic outdoor kitchen area, propane fire pit, landscaping, and other enhancements designed to help guests slow down, reconnect with nature, and enjoy the beauty of the land.
Juniper Hollow is an off-grid forest retreat designed for guests seeking a quiet, private nature experience. We currently welcome smaller, self-contained camping setups, including camper vans, small RVs, overlanders, truck campers, and compact camping setups. Due to our limited space and driveway layout, the maximum combined length of your vehicle and camping setup is 25 feet.
We are beginning with two spacious RV sites on a large gravel pad, thoughtfully arranged with each site having its own designated parking area and room to relax while enjoying the natural surroundings. RV guests are also welcome to enjoy a large circular natural sitting area nestled among the trees in the forested portion of the property. Accessible by a well-lit walking trail, this peaceful space offers a place to relax, unwind, stargaze, and enjoy the beauty and tranquility of the surrounding forest.
Future plans include dedicated tent camping areas within portions of the forested area. Until that development is complete, RV guests have the unique opportunity to enjoy this special forest area as an added feature of their stay.
Please note: Juniper Hollow is still in the early stages of development. Some portions of the forested area remain closed while improvements are being made. For your safety, please remain within designated guest areas and do not enter closed sections of the property.
The property is fully fenced and located on maintained county roads, offering a balance of privacy and convenience. A nearby grocery store, convenience store, and fuel stop are approximately 6 minutes away, while Show Low’s restaurants, shopping, fuel, and services are about 20 minutes away.
The host lives on-site in a tiny home and is available if needed while respecting guest privacy. A friendly corgi also calls Juniper Hollow home and may make an occasional appearance.
**Pets:** The host is a dog lover; however, guest pets are not permitted at this time. This policy helps maintain a peaceful environment and ensures a smooth experience for all guests. Thank you for understanding.
Guests can expect a quiet, respectful environment centered around relaxation, nature appreciation, stargazing, photography, reading, bird-watching, and enjoying Arizona’s beautiful high country.
**Before Booking:** Please take a moment to review the Property Rules listed under “Additional Rules.” This helps ensure Juniper Hollow is a good fit for your camping style and expectations.

If you like pool they have 3 very good tables. The taproom closes early like 9 I think, so it's not noisy while your trying to sleep. They are close to some road traffic but it's not terribly busy with traffic noise,
