My stay at Maxine and Chad's Hdden Oasis was wonderful. Due to circumstances, I was upgraded to a Casita. It was so very cute, had a nice kitchen, a lovely shower, and a very comfortable bed. It was perfect for my need. The love and attention given to Hdden Oasis as a parent everywhere you look. Every detail is delightful and exudes a loving presence I hope to come back again with my husband and spend more time here. This place, surrounded by intriguing mountains, which I have no doubt are dripping with birds during spring migration, is truly a gem.

Mesquite Meadows is as beautiful as pictured! The night sky, the sunset and sunrise from this spot is breathtaking. But the sights pale in comparison to the warmth and kindness demonstrated by Attila and Heather. As this was our "first full hook up run" with our RV they were happy to offer help if any was needed which was reassuring. In addition to that you can only imagine the joy we felt when Heather provided a fresh pint of homemade vanilla ice cream "which just finished churning." Needless to say, that was the first thing on the list -- finish that ice cream! What a lovely touch! We will absolutely be returning to Mesquite Meadows and enjoy the warmth, kindness, sights and peacefulness this Hipcamp offers. Highly recommended!

Weekend Trip to "Lil Red Camper Glamping in Style"
I had such a wonderful stay at Hidden Oasis! The hosts have put so much love and creativity into their place. All of the buildings are interesting, artsy, and sincere and exude a warm and friendly energy. The surrounding desert is lush, beautiful and teeming with wildlife. I’ve lived in Southern AZ for 35 years and still saw a few species of native plants and animals I’ve never seen before. The peace and tranquility here is superb, sitting outside enjoying the cooler weather and listening to the nature sounds was so relaxing that I slept better here than i have in weeks, and at night the sky explodes with stars, and I was lucky enough to see one streak across the sky. This is honestly one of my favorite places and I can’t wait to come back to visit the next time I’m in need of rejuvenation.

44 ft fifth wheel
With pets
This was an incredible find! It ended up being exactly what we were looking for. It is about a mile down a dirt road, bordering a huge tract of BLM land. We have a 44’ fifth wheel and had plenty of room. When we arrived Heather greeted us with a loaf of fresh baked sourdough bread. Attila met us and helped us get set up. The site has full hookups and is level. They were available throughout the stay and we fell in love with the fresh well water. Seriously, the flavor of the water is amazing. Their golden retriever adopted us and is so sweet. The mountains provided the perfect backdrop every night. Tombstone, Sierra Vista and Bisbee are close by. We stayed here for 2 1/2 months and loved it. Would not hesitate to come back again.

44 ft fifth wheel
With pets
We loved our stay with Attila and Heather. They met us at the site and assisted us getting set up. Heather also had homemade sourdough bread for us. The site has full hookups and borders thousands of acres of BLM land. It was exactly what we hoped it would be, remote, gorgeous and safe. It is about one mile down a dirt road, but plenty wide enough for our big rig. We have a 44’ fifth wheel and the site was big enough for us. One of the most surprising parts of the site was the well water. We loved the flavor of the water. The hosts are amazing and generous. We really enjoyed our time with them and would love to stay here again. It was about 25 minutes to Sierra Vista, Tombstone and Bisbee.

Fantastic birding, wonderful trails and a great site. The wildlife and birding was the best in Sierra Vista. Obvious that the hosts love animals, are very knowledgeable with birding, and take such good care of the feeding stations and property. Beautiful area. Lovely hosts. The best Hipcamp venue I have ever visited, and highly recommend to all nature lovers.

Jen has the biggest and best bird garden I’ve ever visited. The rv space is easily accessible, and RCC is an easy, birds walk to the preserve. I’ll visit again 😁

The RV sites were nice and level with a nearby porta-potty and hand washing station. The big plus, if you're a birder, are the bird sanctuary and trails that lead to numerous feeders, quiet spots to sit and observe birds, and trails around the property. We saw numerous hummingbirds, songbirds, turkeys, and a few raptors. At night, we were serenaded by whiskered screech owls. You can also walk about 0.2 miles to the TNC Ramsey Canyon Preserve, no need to drive anywhere! Jen and Greg were welcoming hosts, fun to chat with, and had some great suggestions of nearby places to visit, but their bird sanctuary is tough to leave! Definitely would stay here on the next visit

Damon was a kind and caring camp host. His setup is rustic so don't expect a glamping experience but for those looking for an interesting place to camp away from the world it's well worth it. There are several different small hand built buildings on the property, one of which has a shared kitchen and bathroom, it's rough but is good enough for cooking and showers. The property also has several trees and shrubs planted by Damon and paths that one can take walks on. Oh, and there's also goats to check out! I also need to mention that Damon is a uniquely talented musical soul so if you're into playing or composing he might give you a mini tour of of his musical creations - they're very interesting- and show you his setup where he works on his music and offer to play some music together - my husband was surprised to find a musical mind to connect with in the middle of nowhere. He's also very knowledgeable of the surrounding area and was more than happy to share his tips with my husband and I on the best spots to visit and scenic drives to take. Damon made our camp stay very interesting.
