About 18+ Artists' Nature Retreat
Welcome to Our Earth-Building Artists' Retreat! Imagine a creative escape that's just a stone's throw away from the stunning landscapes of Arizona's wild desert. Our homestead is nestled right next to hundreds of acres of breathtaking BLM land. Here, awe-inspiring hills tell tales of ancient coral reefs full of desert wildlife and amazing night sky. History buffs rejoice, you're smack dab in the middle of the legendary mining towns of Tombstone, Bisbee, and Sierra Vista! Explore as you wish—be it the homestead's vibrant heart or the quirky charm of nearby towns. Our magical retreat offers cozy camping spots with amenities like a shower house featuring on-demand hot water—perfect after a day of adventuring. You'll also have access to Wi-Fi and a composting commode. Need extra comforts? We also offer firewood and water-fill ups on a donation basis! A Few Considerations Before Booking: Getting Here: Your journey begins with a scenic drive, we live 5-10 minutes down a dirt road. It is a bit bumpy, but standard cars like Civic or Prius will do okay, just go slow. This route isn’t ideal for very low-clearance vehicles, those uneasy about dirt roads, or trailers/RVs over 30 ft. Off-Grid Adventure: Since we're living that sustainable off-grid dream, we work with what we call a composting "outhouse" rather than a traditional septic system. If this rustic charm doesn’t sit well with you, we might not be the ideal fit. Pet & Wildlife Lovers: We embrace friendly furry companions! Just bear in mind, the desert is home to critters galore—everything from coyotes to bobcats. Keep a watchful eye on your pets and please make sure you clean up after your pets. Adult-Only Zone: We cater to an 18+ crowd—so it's a peaceful haven sans kids. Eco-Friendly Practices: We encourage bringing biodegradable soaps to protect our trees and vegetation, we do provide biodegradable soaps if needed.

For a camp as remote as it is- we found it clean and well thought out. The host was congenial and considerate.
interesting, unique place with a special atmosphere. If you like nature, art, and thinking differently, it's definitely worth trying. My favorite was the scenic-toilet :). The instructions were understandable, we found the campsite easily.
The trip to the campsite was a beautiful drive down a rocky road. The views from the campsite were gorgeous day and night. Due to the little light pollution, the starts were stellar. The host was super kind and accommodating to our travel/camping plans. *road was definitely rocky but manageable with a awd or 4wd vehicle*
I had a great experience! The micro tiny home was so cozy. The outdoor kitchen and bamboo ramada added lots of extra hang-out space. Richard gave me a tour of the property and there are so many interesting things going on there! He is a wonderful host that is doing wonderful things to connect with the earth.
I past through one night in a road cross-country roadtrip, and this little cabin was a great choice. Beautiful surroundings, a comfortable cabin, helpful host, and it's far enough off the main road that you hear no road noise - just the sounds of nature.
