Weekend Trip to Sacred Springs-Private creek access

Our stay at Sacred Spring was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, our hosts Gary and Daren were exceptional — incredibly kind, thoughtful, and great communicators both before and during our visit. They went above and beyond to help us celebrate my birthday weekend with family, making extra accommodations that made the trip feel truly special. The property itself is magical. The sunsets were breathtaking, the land peaceful and full of beauty. We loved exploring the hike down to the canyon and creek — it felt like a hidden paradise. The paddle boards and kayak added so much fun to our days, and every part of the stay felt relaxing and rejuvenating. You can tell Gary and Daren pour their hearts into this place. It’s the perfect mix of comfort, adventure, and serenity. We can’t wait to come back! 🌿✨

Our host went above and beyond to make everything about this experience amazing. The stay was so soulful. We took the opportunity for river kayaking, and it was made so easy with our hosts help. We were blessed to be able take the time to spend a quiet day painting rocks and enjoying the beautiful surroundings. A few nights under the stars on the loft deck were the reset we needed. Can’t boast more about this stay. Highly recommend all of it.

3 nights at Sacred Springs-Private creek access

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Sacred Springs. Gary and Daren have created a very special place with great energy. You can tell they love this place and want their guests to enjoy it as much as they do. They are happy to make recommendations for great hikes and adventures in the local area or you can just hang out and swim, kayak or paddle board in their beautiful creek front riparian area. My only concern was the proximity to the freeway and the noise associated with it. But I can honestly say that it didn’t bother me or keep me up at all. If anything it was a nice reminder to be grateful that I was chillin’ at Sacred Springs rather than out there on the roads. I am already looking forward to my next visit to the area, and staying again at Sacred Springs.

Beautiful campsite with one outstanding host. Clifford is truly one of the kindest people on earth. He greeted me at check in and gave me some tips on which campsite to choose. I stayed at site #2 which had an amazing sunset view. The grounds are neat and well kept and the porta-potty is clean. I was able to find the place fairly easily, but I recommend using Google Maps not Apple Maps. Apple could not find the address, but google did. Some minor dirt roads to get there, but my Subarus forester towing a small camper handled it just fine.

Easy directions to the remote spot. Some of the road was dirt but easily passable in a car. The owner has nice touches like horseshoes and cornhole, and a cabinet with camping necessities for purchase. There’s a nature trail too. The stargazing was incredible! Completely dark and quiet. Great sunrise too, along with a storm and rainbow. I-40 is in the far distance and barely detectable especially at night. Easily one of my favorite Hipcamp spots.

2 nights at The Otterlimits

Very close to Verde Adventures Kayaker Pick-Up spot for Kayakers (walking distance), and not too far from Beasley Flats, (a few of minutes by car.) Love the private property access to the river for OTTERLIMITS users only. (walking distance). Would recommend a 4WD if not walking to this part, it was rutty and muddy. You don't want to get stuck! OTTERLIMITS had a big fire pit, big opening in the trees for Astronomy viewing, took my spotting scope, it was nice. Also used for birding, saw many gaggles of geese in formation flying south for the winter. There was plenty of kindling around to start a fire. Gene was a gracious host, offered some fire wood if we needed it. Loved the distant sounds of cows and coyotes in the background, and fall leaves in some areas. I highly recommend this spot. But don't go so late in the season like we did (Late October), unless properly prepared. We did okay, but kept an eye on the forecast the entire month before leaving. We prepared for 47 degree weather as the low, but it got down to 34 degrees. Much lower than predicted. Think it had to do with being so close to the water, as opposed to the town of CAMP VERDE, and the fact that the recent monsoons still left many areas (especially by the river) extremely wet and muddy. We couldn't even get close to the river without walking thru about 30 feet of mud. Almost slipped about a dozen times. Would highly recommend going before the monsoons or weeks after to let it dry out. Thanks Again GENE!

1 night at Rural Ranch & Petting Farm

I had a fun visit here. Lots of animal petting - goats, pigs, horses, sheep and some very friendly dogs. You definitely get the farm vibe. I heard coyotes at night and roosters in the morning. Expect some noise, but in a good way. Conveniently close to Sedona and the perfect way to get away from the crowds. Holly is super friendly too.

This is a great spot. Not far off freeway, but very quiet and peaceful. Clifford has turned his property into a mini campground, with well-marked sites and trees for semi-private spaces. As a solo female traveler, I felt safe, comfortable and welcome and will come back again for a visit when in the area.

1 night at Sacred Springs-Private creek access

Love love love!! This was one of the best campsites I’ve managed to stay at during my travels. Lovely hosts, great bathroom with overhead shower, clean toilets, a super cool communal room with coffee and cooled water cooler, along with cooking materials for the onsite grill. Lots of cool trails, fauna and flora plus tons of hummingbirds and other wildlife to see. The creek was pretty and everything was very peaceful and quiet. The gravel roads to get there were totally worth every minute. Thanks so much Gary and Daren! I’ll be back here next time I’m in Sedona 🩷

1 night at Sacred Springs-Private creek access

We had a blast at Secret Springs, lovely maintained land and tons of amenities. We came from a long hike in Grand Canyon and got fully recharged on the land of Gary and Daren. Next morning we had tons of fun in the creek with the canoes and the natural water swimming. Highly recommended stay!

Weekend Trip to A Spark in the Dark Campground

What a 💎 Gem for a ⛺. And to watch ✨ ☄️ ⭐ @night. And to fly my 🪁 @day. Bring a hat/wind protection, in October (I think) could be first year round ....but it was awesome. The host, Clifford, what a great, friendly, thoughtful, smart and kind Dude!! (Some say he's the Dudeist) I needed a spot on a cross country road trip but would TOTALLY come back here when I just wanna fly solo for a bit This campout, my 1st here, felt like my own private burning man. I just allowed a couple days to enjoy my hammock and to choose to let the sound of the wind blow any thoughts out out out .....BuhBye. Bring a little cash for the 24/7 store. Things you may need or simply want Blessings to host and campers alike ... Billie Jo

Distant Drums RV Resort

Distant Drums RV Resort stands out as a unique campground because it is tribally-owned and has been a cornerstone of the Yavapai-Apache Nation since its establishment in 1995. This resort not only offers a serene escape into nature but also plays a vital role in enhancing the lives of the Nation's people. The programs developed through the resort have provided essential services to the elderly, created educational opportunities, and fostered long-term economic growth, among other benefits. The Yavapai people, who speak Yuman, are closely related to the Hualapai, Supai, and other tribes along the Colorado River. The Dilzhe’e Apache, speaking an Athapaskan language, share linguistic ties with the Navajo to the north. Following the hardships of the 19th century, the survivors of these tribes were officially united under the Indian Reorganization Act of 1934, forming the Yavapai-Apache Tribe, which became the Yavapai-Apache Nation in 1992. The ancestors of the Yavapai and Dilzhe’e Apache were skilled hunters and gatherers, living harmoniously with the land and leaving minimal traces for archaeologists to uncover. Their seasonal movements were guided by the availability of resources and personal preferences.
