Roxanne was awesome to deal with. Very responsive. We booked last minute and couldn't be happier. The campsite is great. The small patio with table and chairs, and string lights really set the vibe. This location was super convenient to my wife's conference in Phoenix. We stayed one night. Now, a remote campsite this is not. It is a quaint corner in a large suburban lot, but that's why it works so well. It is situated perfectly for privacy, peace and quiet, and is also a lovely setting. Would highly recommend.

1 night at Phoenix Mountains Treehouse
We had an absolutely lovely time staying at the treehouse! It’s clean, cozy and you can tell they put a lot of thought into it to make sure you felt at home. Their property is a bonus! Gorgeous big yard where you can just sit and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Another bonus- you’ll definitely see a bunny or two hopping around their yard! Outside bathroom is well kept! Very nice owners! Looking forward to coming back and staying longer than a night!

We loved Julie’s spot. It’s a beautiful desert level campsite on the foothills of a nature preserve. Shopping is also convenient. We could sit in the evenings and watch planes approach Gateway airport over the mountain and listen to the horses moving and nickering nearby. Julie is a great host and we will be back.

I loved camping here, it was clean, quiet and well lit. I was able to book super last minute- the host was helpful and extremely responsive! The spot had several different hook up options 50/30/20 and they offered water I think? I didn’t explore the water hookup though since I’m not self contained. The spot felt intimate and private. It’s super easy to find as the host gave great directions. There was an offer to meet upon arrival as well- it’s helpful but definitely you won’t have any problem finding the spot with host’s instructions. I would recommend this spot for anyone who needs a quiet night on in a safe property.

This is a great Hipcamp! First, the spot is great. You have a very large, private environment behind their house. Wendy has set up a lovely seating area, picnic area, and recreation area. You are near their barn, there is a large grassy area and a nice tree for shade. Wendy sent very clear instructions on YouTube that show how to access the property. While to have access to Phoenix and Scottsdale, you are in a quiet, more rural environment (although there is development going on all around them). The birds in the morning were delightfull! I would highly recommend for a short or long term stay in the area.
