Hawks Hideaway Camping, LLC

17 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents7 acres · Cottonwood, AZ
We offer various camping accommodations, as well as a teepee. See our different listings for info on each. A few choice examples of local activities to do on or very near to our campsite include: Bird watching, hiking, river rafting or tubing, kayaking, fishing, swimming, horseback riding, stargazing, and even rockhounding. This area conforms to the Arizona Dark Sky initiative, and while we are not dark-sky certified, we've had several guests compliment us on our location. When it comes to rockhounding, or amateur geology, this is a fantastic area for exploration and study.  The cliff walls of the Verde River offer clear and distinct sedimentary layers, and the frequent flooding of the massive sandy riverbed reveals countless undiscovered treasures.We gladly welcome pets, including horses, as long as the guests inform us of their presence, and takes care of all their needs, including cleaning up any mess. There is a professional horse-boarding field and stables adjacent to our property, and a long pleasant trail allows horseback riders to follow the Verde Greenway into Old Town Cottonwood if they so desire. Please remember that this is a natural and secluded spot located directly adjacent to the state-maintained Verde Ripparian Greenway and the Verde River. This means you may encounter wildlife and pests associated with being in such close connection to nature. Be prepared to tuck your food away and bring ample protection from the insects.

Grand Canyon Oasis High Desert Camp

10 sites · RVs10 acres · Doney Park, AZ
We are a family-owned RV park and tiny home village located 50 minutes from the east entrance to Grand Canyon National Park and only 20 minutes north of Flagstaff, Arizona. Our family -- Adam, Shelley, Zoe, Ava, and Cairo -- purchased the RV park in 2021. The property was a trading post for decades but had fallen into disrepair. We have been busy painting, cleaning and improving the grounds to become a comfortable oasis for your family. Our location on US Hwy 89 on the east side of the highway is only a few miles from the breathtaking aspens of Lockett Meadow, the ruins of Wupatki National Monument and the lava flows at Sunset Crater. The park is a short drive to downtown Flagstaff, and on the way to the Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Lake Powell, Moab and Durango. Stay the night or as long as you like! Drink in the hibiscus sunrises above the Painted Desert and relax into the long shadows of the San Francisco Peaks. Let us know if you want to borrow a telescope to explore the darkest night sky you have ever seen! We are excited to share our home with you!

Camping near Williams guide

Overview

With the iconic Grand Canyon a short drive away, camping near Williams, Arizona delivers an otherworldly experience for outdoor exploration. Grand Canyon National Park challenges hikers to trek across its dozens of trails, including Bright Angel, Phantom Ranch, and Plateau Point. Public campgrounds by the canyon’s South Rim are especially popular year-round, and they book up well in advance. For a peaceful stay, try the North Rim which is comparatively quieter and more remote. Nearby, Kaibab National Forest also offers a wealth of camping opportunities, from tent camping with fire rings and picnic tables to a fully furnished cabin rental for groups of up to 14 people. For campers who wish to stay closer to Williams, Cataract Lake County Park is just two miles west along the historic Route 66. The lake lures anglers in with rainbow trout, catfish, crappie, and largemouth bass. And private RV parks in the area offer full hookups, restrooms, and glamping options for every type of guest.
