Very quiet, secluded, and serene spot with close highway access! Very close to Petrified National Park and saved us a lot of driving time! Thomas was very responsive and I would definitely recommend this lovely remote spot!
Nice spot in an open cow pasture right off the highway. Beautiful sunset. Worked well for a quick rest stop overnight for us.
I loved camping on Thomas’s land! He is incredibly kind and replies very quickly to messages. We tent camped and it was great! Ground was soft and the area was very quiet. 10/10 would recommend.
So peaceful and beautiful! The "Petrified Forest Hideaway" sign has fallen, so keep an eye low to the ground for the right turn off.
Really hard to find. Maybe pit a sign along the road
Quiet isolated spot. Beautiful sunrise, sunset and stars. Hard to find - don’t use the coordinates given on Hipcamp
