Pitch your tent or park your camper among towering Saguaros with stunning mountain views in every direction. Bring your camera or your horses! This is the perfect spot for relaxing, stargazing, and soaking in those famous Arizona sunsets. You’ll have a spacious, private campsite all to yourself—I only allow one booking at a time to ensure a peaceful and personal experience.
Please note: This is a working horse ranch, which means you'll see fencing, trailers, and occasional activity from people helping keep the ranch running. While your campsite is private, our property is just over two acres—so you'll also see neighboring homes. If you're looking for complete solitude with no sights, sounds, or smells of ranch life, I recommend dispersed camping elsewhere.
My 2.2-acre private horse ranch is home to:
• 8 rescue horses
• 2 donkeys
• 8 mini pigs and a few chickens!
…all ready to meet and greet!
Trail access? Absolutely.
Hiking and horseback riding trails lead directly from the property into Spur Cross Conservation Area—or take a short 10-minute drive to a main trailhead. Black Mountain Hiking Trail is also nearby and offers panoramic views of the valley. You can even ride your horse into town and tie up at the local cowboy bars!
⸻
A few things to note:
• The landscape varies with the season—there won’t be green grass in the summer
• Please keep pets away from cactus—they bite!
• We’re located in a desert neighborhood, so please respect the nearby homes. My house and neighbors house will be in view from your campsite.
• A horse corral (50 ft round pen) is available to rent—message me if interested!
⸻
Looking for more adventure? Lake Pleasant, Bartlett Lake, Tonto National Forest, Seven Springs, and other scenic destinations are a short drive away. Need supplies? Walmart, Lowe’s, Tractor Supply, and more are just 10 minutes down the road. Want to explore a truly unique cowboy town? Cave Creek is full of Old West charm, with saloons, quirky shops, live music, and horses sharing the road with motorcycles.

We have one RV space (campsite only-No RV) with full hook ups next to a shared beautiful pool and gazebo. Your RV space has a pedestal with three optional plugs: 50/30/20 amp plugs. All have breaker switches.
This property is located in a quiet Mesa AZ neighborhood, just North of Gilbert, and just North of highway 60. Higley exit is close to shopping and restaurants. It is a quarter acre corner lot.
The RV pad is built on the entire right side of the property from the street to back, so it's very private. It's approximately 1/3 of the entire property and made of decomposed gravel, accessed via it's own entrance, and set next to a private brick patio. It's separated via brick wall in back and on the right, along with vinyl fence, and pool fencing on the left.
The RV pad is generally back-in design, accessed via your 25 foot wide drive that leads straight up to a 14 foot wide RV gate. Your RV, toys, and tow vehicle will sit on level decomposed granite. Your RV pad is 80 feet long and 20 feet wide. In addition, you have approx. 20'x20' brick patio, gas fire pit, and artificial grass for chairs, table, and outdoor living space. You can lock up your space via the RV gate, then come and go via the private 4' walk-through gate. The area is great for pups too! Additional parking is available in front of the RV gate if needed, or you can park on the street.

Hands-down the best location of any Hipcamp in Phoenix. Walk to all the activities in downtown while enjoying a small neighborhood vibe. Host Boris is friendly and considerate. What the site lacks in privacy it makes up for big time in location and ease of access.

The lot is expansive with several places to put your trailer. I had a pop up trailer. I was only there one night. While you are in a rural environment, you are within 10 minutes of filling suburban living needs like groceries, restaurants and gas stations. It was quiet at night. Great host.

We loved staying at Wendy’s! It was quiet, clean and easy to get in the space. There was a grassy area and trees by the space also which was wonderful after being in the desert. We woke in the morning to birds chirping and a cow mooing in the distance. We would most definitely recommend this place!

Absolutely loved staying here. Easy parking. I'm new at driving a motorhome and I was able to back in just fine here with my 40 foot class C. The place was perfect for us to feel like the space was our own. There was a laundry area available for our use. I enjoyed not being in a crowded rv park and was able to relax more and let our dog hang out more freely. Recommend this place and will definitely come back.
