Camp Dally
1. Camp Dally
26mi from Williams · 1 site · Tent, RV
Tucked away in the scenic high country of Williams, Arizona, our property offers guests a peaceful retreat surrounded by towering pines, open skies, and crisp mountain air. Whether you’re here for relaxation or adventure, you’ll find plenty to enjoy.
Wake up to birdsong and sweeping views of the forest. Spend your mornings sipping coffee on the porch or walking the nearby trails that wind through the pines. In the afternoons, explore local attractions — historic downtown Williams, Bearizona Wildlife Park, or the gateway to the Grand Canyon, just a short drive away.
Evenings are perfect for stargazing; with minimal light pollution, the Milky Way often shines brightly overhead. Gather around the fire pit to share stories, roast marshmallows, and enjoy the cool mountain breeze.
The property is equipped for comfort while keeping you connected to nature — clean facilities, designated tent sites, and plenty of open space to relax or play. Wildlife sightings are common, so keep your camera ready for elk, deer, or the occasional fox.
Whether you’re looking for a base camp for your Arizona adventures or a quiet escape from the city, our property offers a unique blend of rustic charm, natural beauty, and unforgettable experiences.

The Pad: Grand Canyon Basecamp
Just under 30 minutes from the South Rim and near a charming Route 66 town, The Pad is a peaceful high-desert basecamp made for unplugging. Set up your tent or roll in with your RV or campervan — the 20x20 wooden platform is perfect for gear, outdoor cooking, or kicking back with a view.
This off-grid, RV-accessible spot offers wide-open skies, mountain views, and some of the best stargazing you’ll find in Arizona. After a day exploring the Grand Canyon or the nostalgia of Route 66, come back to your own private slice of quiet with a fire pit and room to relax.
What to know:
• RV- and campervan-friendly with easy pull-up access
• No bathroom or running water — pack in/pack out required
• Fire pit on-site (bring your own firewood)
• Ideal for tents, rooftop setups, campers, and vans
• Massive views, peaceful vibes, unforgettable skies
Whether you’re road-tripping through or staying a while, The Pad makes the perfect Grand Canyon launch point.

Our location is mid-way between Ash Fork and Seligman, AZ off of Route 66.
It is pristine juniper covered land in every direction at 5200'+ elevation with incredible Northwest Arizona mountain and valley views. If you're looking to enjoy the off-grid camping experience, come stay a night or 2 on "The 40 on Rte. 66." During new moon times, the sky is full of stars and the Milky Way is easily visible. During full moon times, the trees and ground are lit up in all directions. Sightings of deer and jackrabbits are common as well as hearing coyotes in the distance. Being open range land, the cattle will wander into sight. Various cacti and desert plants around the campsites. Nearby Route 66 attractions include Ash Fork, Seligman and Williams. Grand Canyon National Park is approx. 1.5 hours away. We are along the longest remaining un-interrupted section of Route 66.
We have several improved camp sites to make your stay easier; however, there are plenty of unmarked and unimproved areas within the Hipcamp area for you to stay. This is our land but you are welcomed to camp your way. All are welcomed. 420 friendly. Please be respectful of your fellow Hipcampers.

Great location near the Grand Canyon! Just an open piece of land for boondocking - there may be other campers present during your stay.
The stars and night sky out here are amazing and completely worth the trip.
**Please use the coordinates. The property is 40 minutes north of Williams. If your GPS takes you into Williams that is the wrong location.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The last one mile to the location is a bumpy dirt road. Imagine the worst road you’ve been on - this is slightly better and if this is the worst you’ve been on .. well then live a little.
In the past, some people complained about the dirt road not being in good shape due to rains. Please know that we are not responsible for or even aware of the road conditions to the property.
Unfortunately, the county has done no maintenance since the early 1990s and has no plans to. The quotes we have received to fix just the worst parts have been between $35,000 and $50,000.
Lastly, check the signs on the way in the area about fire danger and whether you are able to have a campfire or not. If you are allowed, please make sure to fully extinguish it.
We are working on bringing services and upgrades to the property. All money being earned will go towards this effort.

A little over one acre of flat rangeland available for long-term boondocking. Dirt road and field for parking, completely off-grid situation. Close to town! Less than 2 miles, a 10 minute bike ride, to Valle main intersection. Looking for someone looking to stay as close to 120 day max camping as possible. Can be flexible with pricing for the right occupant. Would like $100 per week. References required.

The land owners Edwin and Mike are very friendly and hospitable, they were kind enough to bring us 3 20 lb bags of ice when we ran out. The campground was very nice , all of the campsites are covered in wood chip which makes it nice the land is very well maintained. It was very peaceful and very quiet and we know that we will return again in the future.
