This location worked really well for us. It is convenient to get to and central to local stuff, in particular to Dragoons range and the Stronghold. The view is great from camp. The local farm scene is our style. Melody is a sweet lady and great host. Would suggest this as a winter venue since the weather is superb

RV Ranch is located in a beautiful spot of Cochise County. Gorgeous view of Cochise Stronghold and surrounding ranges. It’s a working ranch so you’ll hear animal noises which added to the peace of the place for me. Full hookup, very level site made it a breeze to get settled quickly. I was so fortunate to witness the great crane migration during my stay. Thousands of them made their way to their winter home right overhead. Truly amazing. Highly recommend RV Ranch to anyone visiting this stunning area of AZ.

The Lazy Horse Ranch is easy to get to off of the main road.
I had a great night at Lazy Horse Ranch. It was quite and comfortably. The hook ups were in working order. I even got some much needed rain.
I checked out the horses, the library, there was a place to make coffee, do laundry. They had information about trails in the area.
Maybe I will bring my horses out for a horsey vacation in the future.
Thanks for the nice stay.

Good pull through spot with lots of birds and farm animals around. The proprietors were kind.
Note that you access the property by turning west at 31.9273, -109.7541. We missed the turn the first loop around since we didn't see any other rigs (it was empty). There are some tight cattle guards at the turns off of Kansas Settlement Rd.

We were fortunate to have Lazy House Ranch all to ourselves during our trailer camping stay, and it couldn’t have been more relaxing. From the moment we arrived, the hosts made us feel completely welcome and at home, which set the tone for an incredible experience.
The property is absolutely stunning, with wide-open spaces and breathtaking scenery that made every moment feel magical. Whether it was sipping coffee with panoramic views or enjoying the peace and quiet under the stars, this place is the definition of tranquility.
Though we didn’t utilize any facilities, the setup was perfect for trailer camping. It offered the space and serenity we were looking for, with nature as our ultimate amenity.
If you’re looking for a trailer camping spot that’s equal parts peaceful and picturesque, Lazy House Ranch is a must. We’re already looking forward to returning!
