5 nights at Gila River View
This was one of the best places we've ever stayed! The host, Amber, was incredible and made sure we had everything we needed. The area is secluded and private and we never heard any noise other than nature. We loved that it's a working cattle ranch with horses, cattle, and pigs. The animals were all friendly and never bothered us. Oh, there was a very friendly barn cat that did snuggle with us a bunch! The camper was an amazing accommodation that offered everything we needed for an indoor experience and sleeping.
The hiking opportunities are endless here! With just a 10 minute hike you can be on the top of a mountain overlooking 2 different valleys that the Gila river runs through. In about a 20-25ish minute hike you can make it from the camp clear into a hidden valley on the back side and make it right up to a secret spot next to the Gila river. We spent half a day at this spot relaxing and enjoying the weather and nature!
It's about a 10 minute drive to the nearest town for any supplies or if you want a restaurant. We only went once to get more drinking water and we were back at camp within the hour!
We will definitely stay here again! We love the place and it's less than 2 hours from our house!
A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Thank you so much Amber! We appreciated everything you did to make our stay wonderful!

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.

We loved camping here. The host, Julie gave clear directions. There were nice views and bunnies to watch. There was a shelter to keep the area shady. Would camp here again.

Your camping in the backyard of a house on a 2 acre plot. Although it appears to be suburban and the lot is walled/fenced on three sides there is an astonishing amount of wildlife here. Flocks of doves, coveys of quail, tons of rabbits, other birds and we could hear coyotes every morning. The Suarouro (sp?) Cactus are really impressive if you've never been right up close to one. Our stay was quiet and peaceful, and Louise let me park the sprinter under the shade next to the corral... That was huge for keeping the van cool in 105 Phoenix weather. Thank you for that. The place is 20min from Mayo Clinc so we will definitely be back. And yes... we got a fantastic loaf of homemade bread.

The privacy, spaciousness, and quiet were exactly what I had hoped for.
The shade was an amazing assist to my air conditioner.
A respectful and accommodating host made our stay just wonderful.
Would stay again!

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.

Our family absolutely loved staying here. This will be one we look forward to staying at frequently. Everything was clean, and provided. It was a good stay at the ranch. We enjoyed seeing the animals and sitting in the creek even though it was pretty cold! Don’t think twice about booking this place ! Our host went above and beyond and the experience was great.

Tammii was a great host! The site was clean and we had our own private area. We stayed for 13 nights and having washer and dryer was a big plus! Really close to all stores including Costco, Starbucks, Target, and a big mall. We really enjoyed our stay and we would come back!

We loved staying at Tammii & Kevin’s property so much that we extended 2 nights. You have your own little private patio area, which is great for your dog(s) to hang out as well. We wanted to be right in Mesa which this location is so you are central to all kinds of sight seeing.
Tammii & Kevin are super nice & very helpful. Backing up our 30 feet travel trailer into their separate driveway was no problem.
They even have a laundry set up for guests.
We highly recommended staying with them & give them 20 out of 10 stars.
