Hacienda Haven,'Glassy Glamping'
This was our second trip up here and it was amazing just as much as the first time. The scenery, the privacy away from everything is perfect. The way they also have the cabin set up, the signs while driving etc. is perfect they know exactly what they’re doing. JoAnn even came an introduced herself when we were heading out on our last day since she was up there already herself which was nice :) If you want a good trip away from the city, if thats where you’re from like us this is a great place to start looking into. We stayed 4 nights 5 days and it was worth each dollar.

Stunning escape from civilization!
An amazing escape! It is truly stunning AZ beauty. The hosts were friendly and helpful, but wonderfully hands-off for those wanting an escape from all humans. Everything was as advertised. There isn't much nearby, but that's the beauty of it. Nothing but dirt roads and hikable wilderness for miles around. Truly wonderful spot. Thank you, Chuck and Joanne!!

Gold Miner's Claim at Wits End
Amazing desert refuge
This place is absolutely beautiful, peaceful, and quiet. Our site had great views of the mountains and was surrounded by this area’s unique plants. The hosts were communicative and responsive. Definitely looking forward to returning when I can spend a bit more time exploring!

Hacienda Haven,'Glassy Glamping'
Breathtaking
This is our 3rd time staying here and it’s truly one of my favorite places. I’m usually a tent camper but having a real bed, hot showers and flushing toilets is heaven. They’re clean and a short walk from the site.
The site is private and clean. The hanging chairs at this site are a favorite feature for me. There’s also a fire pit, grill, gas stove option, kcup machine, picnic table and tableware. Inside is a comfortable queen size mattress, bedding, extra blankets, and towels.
All the sites (glamping and tent) seem generously spaced out. They’ve put thought into the sites.
The property is breathtaking—a sea of juniper and Joshua trees. And the night sky here is in my all time top 3 places for star gazing.
Stay here and you won’t be disappointed.

Site 2 - Cowboy Starry Night at Wits End
Stargazer paradise
It was a great space for a quiet time of relaxation and retreat. I love that they had a full bathroom and had a composting toilet by the campsite. It was nice to be able to take a hot shower even if it was a quickie. The views, especially the sunsets, were beautiful and awe inspiring. The stars were mind-blowingly vast and stunning to behold. It's also fun to watch the "stars" that fly around.
Heard some cattle not far away, also some coyotes yelping early one morning, birds flying over saying hi! So awesome!

So amazing, I ran out of characters
This is the second time we've been here, and could not be happier! We've stayed in both the stagecoach glamping tent, and this time, in the Hacienda Haven. Both sites are amazing in their own way.
The area is uniquely beautiful, in a Joshua tree and juniper forest. We came to watch the Leonid meteor shower, but the moon illuminated the sky, so we enjoyed the warmth and light of the fire. There's a lot of area to explore both on the ranch and in the surrounding areas. Our pup, who rarely gets worn out, couldn't move on the way home, there was so much for her to explore as well.
We arrived after dark, but the directions are easy to follow. Since we camped in November, it was a bit chilly. There is a bundle of firewood at the site, so we had a fire going in no time. The hosts are very courteous to supply just about everything you need. We're pretty experienced campers and go camping to get away from people for the most part. This trip did not disappoint in that regard, but I get the impression that the hosts will accommodate if you need more social interaction or support with obtaining things that you need to make your stay comfortable. They provide a brochure with cool things to do around the ranch and surrounding area. We were thrilled that there was a coffee maker, running water, a fridge, and electricity at the site. The bed is super comfy, firm, but not hard. The shower house is very clean and well maintained.
We will plan on coming back again and again!
