Playa Ponderosa

Nestled discreetly in the scenic wilderness of Coconino National Forest, Playa Ponderosa is a rare hidden gem that has built a reputation as a premier private camping and outdoor event space in the Flagstaff area.

Boasting 75 acres of wide open space surrounded by well-shaded camping nooks in the ancient pines, this unique property provides a much-needed respite from suburban sprawl and the modern world.

Because Playa Ponderosa is privately owned and over 7 miles from the nearest residence, it is the perfect getaway for groups of all sorts and sizes – affording you the freedom to quietly reflect on the beauty of nature, howl like a wolf, or enjoy target shooting safely & responsibly. At 7,200 feet of elevation with in-season highs between 70 and 80 degrees – Playa Ponderosa is the ideal location for all things outdoors.
