Our church has a large gravel parking lot where guests can stay, except for Sunday mornings but then the vehicle/camper could be moved to the east lot which is next to our large garden and hobby greenhouses. Plenty of space to be had and if needed/desired restrooms of the church can be utilized. There are no camping places nearby and this location may be helpful to those who otherwise may be 'stuck for the night.' Should you want to use the 'dump station' you need to do a bit of extra work though it's not a difficult task. As indicated we do not request a donation; however, if you do stay for more than 1 night it would be much appreciated if you give a small donation to the church for the hook ups we provide. Suggested Local Attractions:Our location is on the Navajo Nation (reservation) yet are a border town on its east side. On Saturdays we have a Navajo flea market across the street. Much natural beauty and plenty of national parks are nearby. Within a day's travel we have more than 20 national parks/monuments. Can leave camper at our site if towing a vehicle.

Pastor John was a great host and communicator! quiet enough, even though right on the corner. Felt safe. Offered us water to fill up our tanks. 20 amp too if you want it.

Hi, good for an overnight stay. A little road noise but still slept well. My dog appreciated a grassy lawn too. Preacher John spent time answering my questions about the area and the Native American culture. Thx.

Pastor John is quick with communication. He had me back into a small space between his house and the church. It was tight and took me a few tries to square it off, but it felt super safe. Not quiet, just safe. Thank you so much for the accommodations!

Located at a busy intersection, so it's noisy, but it's easy to find. Great if you're passing through as John says. John was great about meeting us and was a delight to talk to. Thank you for having us.
