I-40 Exit 109. 22 miles south on Anvil Rock Rd. Only the first 6 miles are paved, the rest is dirt. 36 acres in the middle of nowhere. I have a spot set up with a fire pit but there are plenty of other spots to boondock. I am on solar but may be able to supply 15amp power if the batteries have a good charge. Not advised if rain is forecast. The dirt road can be really muddy. Verizon works in the area. I am told that AT&T is not very good. Now that I have Starlink the WiFi is very good on the property. Great area for star gazing. Since I am at 5500 Ft. elevation, winter temps can go below freezing at night. Summer temps hardly ever get above 90 and at night almost always cools down into the 50's. Suggest coming in during daylight and staying more than one night as it takes 35-45 mins once you exit I-40. Any other question, please ask. Suggested Local Attractions: The small town of Seligman which includes Route 66 is 32 miles away. This is the closest town. Kingman is about 75 miles away. Williams is about 70 miles away. Flagstaff is about 100 miles away. Prescott is about 105 miles away.

Absolutely beautiful property and Frank is such a friendly, gracious host! He has a wonderful spot set up to stay with a campfire area, 15 amp plug, and a gorgeous view. The drive in is on a dirt road, but is easily passable for anyone. Just take your time and you will be fine. The drive has views of the mountains and other scenery to enjoy. This stay is within range of multiple day trips or he welcomes you to just hang out on the property to relax, which offers plenty to enjoy. Highly recommend and we hope to be back someday.

Great communication from host to help find the new address that isn’t in maps yet. Bit of a rough road to get back to his place after you leave the highway but take it slow and you’ll be fine. The dark, quiet location is well worth it. The host was very friendly and guided me into my spot. I checked out Sedona and went to the Grand Canyon while here which were both amazing if you’re ok with a drive. Highly recommend stopping here if you’re passing nearby!

Wow!! This was our first stay in our new Winnebago & what a great adventure it was. Frank was great allowing us to book same day & sent us detailed directions. We loved how off the beaten track this spot was. We saw javelinas, antelope, cattle & huge jackrabbits on the way to Franks place. We have a 32 ft Class A so we just took our time traveling down the dirt roads & our kids enjoyed the adventure. We got in late, but Frank met us at the front of his property and showed us the way to where we selected to put our RV for the night. In the morning we got to chat over coffee & then Frank showed us his property!! He lives off the grid and showed us his setup including his greenhouse, his solar panels, his water holding tanks etc. Our kids learned a lot!!!! If you have the opportunity we recommend the drive. Thanks for having us Frank.

36 acres of peace and quiet. It would be tough to find a nicer and more accomodating host. Frank does have solar to assist but I recommend drawing no more than 10amps if you have the ability to adjust your service input. I travel in a 33' class C and had no issues making the drive. If you are wanting to get away from civilization this is a good spot. At 5500' elevation temps are beautiful as I left 108 degree temps for a place safe and secure.

This host was extremely helpful. He gave great writen and verbal directions to his property thus preventing a common problem with Google map directions to emote areas. The surrounding area is absolutely gorgeous! Unfortunately for us as we were nearing the property we had to turn around and leave. We pass thru northern Arizona at least twice a year and can't wait to plan our next trip to stay with this family at Frank's off grid property.
