50mi from Gold Canyon · 2 sites · Tents, RVs
Tucked into 20 acres of tranquil Sonoran desert just outside Maricopa, the Wild West RV Ranch invites you to unwind under wide-open skies and a backdrop of rust-coloured desert terrain. Whether you’re rolling in with a big rig or pitching a tent, you’ll find a space that feels both open and welcoming. Choose from full-hook-up RV sites—complete with water, sewer, 30/50 amp electric, WiFi and a pull-through large enough for rigs under 50 ft—or go more primitive with a tent-friendly spot near the shower house and restrooms. Campfires are allowed at every site, lighting up nights under starry desert skies. When you’re ready to stretch your legs, meet the “locals”: the working ranch on-site is home to emus, chickens, turkeys, peacocks and even a giant Sulcata tortoise—adding a fun wild-west-meets-farm-feel to the stay. And just beyond the campsite, you’ll find laundry, a small store stocked with ranch-fresh eggs, local honey, snacks, beer and wine. Warm mornings, cool evenings, and the peaceful hum of desert life make this a spot where you can slow down, breathe deep and connect with the outdoors—without sacrificing comfort. Highlights • Spacious pull-through RV sites: full hookups + WiFi. • Tent sites in a more rustic setting with water & basic facilities. • On-site ranch animals and plenty of open desert space to roam. • Store, laundry and shower house make for easy, comfortable stays. • Campfires allowed—perfect for a laid-back desert evening. Ideal For • RV travellers driving through Arizona who want full amenity support. • Tent campers looking for something more comfortable than “rough it” desert camping. • Families or groups who appreciate a bit of character (hello, emus!) in their campground. • Anyone wanting a peaceful desert base with a little ranch flavor, but still within reach of local conveniences.

Right outside our entrance going North on 80th Street you can hike over to the Grapevine Wash which is a short walk away from the Cave Creek Town Trail System for hiking and horseback riding, and if you’re adventurous you can hike up 2 miles of a 800’ climb on a gravel road/trails to “Mexican Hat” for an even more incredible view! We are a 30 amp full hook up (sewer, water & electrical) for 33’ RV’s and living quarters horse trailers.

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. Follow and tag us on Instagram: @margueritaranch

We are in a quiet residential neighborhood with dark starry skies at night. Flat, private area behind main residence with a large cover. You will have about 1 acre of space to yourself. Quiet, rural feel yet less than 5 minutes from shopping, dining and conveniences. Full hookups-- Filtered water, 50 amp electric, and septic. Room to set up temporary horse panels. Walking distance to Santan regional park for miles of hiking, biking or horseback riding. 2 miles from Horseshoe park. Less than a mile to Santan flats.
