Pets can be off-leash at this Hipcamp.

Back to basics with endless desert sky. Hike giant rock sculptures, gather petrified wood, maybe find the hidden pond or seasonal Little Colorado to splash in (clues provided). Bathed in the Canyon's ethereal ambiance, powdery views of Navajo Plateau and snowy San Francisco Peaks await. This is “Stone Soup,” in honor of unique geology and a folktale where everyone brings something to make a whole greater than its parts. Built with love during musical campouts, materials are recycled from building sites.The site is 40 acres and can accommodate RVs too - the whole 40 acres will be just for your group! Please carry in and carry out everything you need. If you'd like to stay for or pay for 4 or more nights, a tiny house is available and I can provide basic supplies for cooking, fire, water, battery lights, and sleeping (cot and loft bed with bedding, sleeps 2, possibly 3 if one on floor with camp pad). It is off-grid with no running water, heat, or toilet (shovel and dunes). Also, possibility of musical, writing, and Earth-based spirituality workshops led by Kate, or to co-organize if you have a leader or idea - reach out if interested. Reasons to stay, in a few words: -Peace, quiet, and total escape -Ecology and good vibes -Solitude, intimacy, and authentic connection -Views! -Artistic, musical, literary creation, rock-gathering, photography, meditation… Away from the touristy side of the Grand Canyon (less than an hour from visitor's center) hike down the Tanner Trail, stop to buy crafts and food from Navajo artisans along the road, and the next day splash in the seasonal Little Colorado near Stone Soup, watch the wild horses, then come home and make a campfire and howl with the coyotes in this unique and sacred high desert spot.

Amazing little home in the middle of the desert. Very basic off grid set up but was comfy for our off grid crew. Be careful coming into the property as you go through native land. They can be a little not kind. We enjoyed rock searching and just chilling. Our dogs loved running the giant sand dunes that hide the home. It was great. We almost turned around at a weird windmill thing but keep going your almost there after you get through the next fence. 😊

It is very peaceful and quiet. Kate was very responsive and helpful because the directions as specific to the remote location. It is within an hour to Grand Canyon visitor center. However, if you have a bad back, are afraid of heights, or not petite, this may not be the site for you. Absolute must to get there before sundown because the site is somewhat hidden. While basic necessities are provided for, we recommend additional sleeping comfort items. The bathroom is rudimentary, so prepare for that.
