One reviewer wrote it’s very dusty…IT’S THE DESERT! Yes, it is but this is the SW. If this is an issue for you than this isn’t the spot.
Close to town, this is popular with RV, 5th wheels, air streams, campers with tents and there is plenty of room. Visitors are respectful of space and privacy, please honor this. This is a big parcel with tall brush and shrubs to shelter against the winds and for privacy.
The deeper one drives into this site the hillier it gets with great views of the mountains. I have a Honda CRV with FED and stuck to spots I can drive onto easily. It rained heavily for an hour but the earth was dry shortly afterward. There are deep wheel groves on some of the gravel/mud roads. Be careful as drop offs can damage your wheels or car. Easy to spot and avoid.
I have been here for three days & nights, very windy at times and very cool at night (end of Sept).
One can make friends or be social with other campers, easy to spot who is welcoming and helpful hose that prefer to be alone.
Plenty of drive through sites for those hauling campers/5th wheels and adventure terrain with AWD/trucks.
FYI this site is near a landfill, doesn’t smell (during my stay) and there are construction noises that echo through the canyon during the morning and day. Quiet at night.
Beautiful spot. Enjoy!
Thank you to another user that posted the coordinates are incorrect! I will confirm to take 17 North and Exit at 320 Schnebly Hill Road, follow the road veer to the left and drive over the cattle gate. The further one drives in more campsites are visible. Also, driving down a dirt road will reveal more. Lots of options. This is a popular spot, arrive early to set up your apot. Mostly avid travels in big campers and RVs that stay for a while. Dirt toad with some large rocks, I did fine with a 2 wheel drive Honda CRV. This is a road that leads to Sedona, it is active with traffic even late at night. Popular with ATVs, so can get noisy. Sat morning is really loud in this road with ATV adventurers. Depending on your campsite, you can hear highway traffic all night. Agree with previous poster entey to this BLM parcel is easy from 17. I have Verizon cell service, had 2 bars, enough for phone calls and texting.
