Nestled in a breezy valley below Rich Hill in Yavapai County, AZ, Stanton Camp sits just six miles below Yarnell and 10 miles northwest of Congress. Once a booming gold mining town known as Antelope Station, Stanton rose to prominence in 1863 with the discovery of gold. Today, the area remains a haven for gold prospectors, hikers, and ATV enthusiasts, all drawn to the beauty of the Sonoran Desert.
Stanton Camp is rich with history and charm. The camp’s buildings, once part of a bustling gold rush town, now serve as hubs for modern activities. The former stage stop and home of Charlie Stanton; infamously killed in a violent confrontation; now houses the Camp Office. The Stanton Hotel has been repurposed into a Library, a two-room museum, and a camp kitchen, each offering glimpses into the past. Meanwhile, the Opera House, rebuilt after a fire in 1910, serves as a gathering place for camp activities.
From October through May, Stanton Camp comes alive with events, combining gold prospecting, mining activities, and opportunities to explore the surrounding desert. Whether you’re searching for gold or simply enjoying the trails, wildlife, and history, Stanton Camp offers an unforgettable experience.

I live in the Bradshaw mountains in central Arizona. It is about 80 miles north of Phoenix. Here we are at 5,500 ft in elevation, on 14 acres of land in open canopy forest with oak, ponderosa, juniper, and manzanita. We are ten miles from the closest town on a dirt road in the Prescott National Forest. The camping is primitive and there are many suitable places for you to put up a tent. We will provide a bucket with woodchips for your bathroom needs. This is an off-grid experience, please expect that there are no amenities. You will need to bring everything you need, including toilet paper! There are great hikes around us in the National Forest. If you like camping and hiking in a remote and rustic area, this is the place to be. You can bring your horse(s) if needed. I have a place for them to stay.

You'll likely also see herds of wild burros and some cattle grazing nearby, they tend to leave droppings everywhere. Target practice is common in the area and even allowed at this site. There is a large stone firepit for guest campfires, firewood may be provided but not guaranteed. A large trash can is available on site for guests, please use it.

The covered dry camp had a terrific view of the valley and beautiful Arizona sunsets. Emily was very nice to deal with. I stayed two days, just resting. I enjoyed watching Emily train her dogs to run an obstacle course! It was a fun, peaceful time and I highly recommend her and her camp.

I couldn’t have asked for a better location, property, and hosts! Super welcoming and helpful. The property is gorgeous and the amenities are plentiful. Loved the animals and felt extremely safe staying in my camper by myself. Amazing stay for the month I booked. I will be coming back again this fall and next spring!

Great camp location with easy access to conveniences while still being close to trails, countryside, mountains, and great hiking. The camp is professionally run, and it shows — the host has truly thought of everything to make the stay comfortable and easy.
We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and the friendly goats, and the free-range chickens were the most well-mannered we’ve ever seen — present but never intrusive.
A relaxing, well-organized spot that we’d absolutely stay at again. Highly recommended.

Max and Elena were great hosts. The patio with fire pit was nice in the evenings. Best thing about this spot was its very convenient proximity to the historic part of Prescott (Whisky Row). Spot was quiet and full hookups were nice. A few tips: although dogs can be off leash there are wild javelinas around and our dogs wanted to chase them so they had to stay on leash. Our motorhome is a big class A and we were towing a Jeep. It’s best to unhook your tow vehicle before getting to the spot and you will need longer hoses and electric cords with a bigger rig in order to best reach the hookups. All in all a 4.5 out of 5 stars for this spot.

Great spot to stay while exploring the Prescott area! Nice level spot with everything we needed- electric, water, sewer, fire pit and wood! Max went above and beyond to make sure we knew how to get there, where to park and to make sure we were comfortable. Bonus- we got to see javelinas every day! Host and neighbor house are near where you park, but we still felt private and everyone was very friendly.

The place was awesome! Don’t come in a Sudan though. The “road” up that mountain was very off road to say the least. There is mountain lions in the area, so it is definitely a good idea to bring bear spray or some other form of protection.
