Raven's Nest On Route 66
1 site on private property. Hook ups and fire pit. Nice and quiet with great views. Great country roads to take a walk. Reasonably priced. Would camp here again.

The site was quiet, relatively private, with great views. Directions were clear and easy to follow, site was level, power/water/sewer conveniently placed. I would stay there again and I would also recommend it to my friends.

Great and quiet place, good communication. The owner came right out and showed me the hookups. Everything worked well. She was very nice and friendly. Level place. Would come again in a heartbeat

Raven's Nest On Route 66
Overall, a pleasant stay. However I do think a few quirks are worth mentioning. We stayed 2 weeks in a fifth wheel to use as a base to see the Bisti Badlands.
Firstly, this property is not directly on Route 66, rather a 5-10 minute drive. The mesas in the photos are further away than they seem.
Secondly, when reaching out to the host just know you will not get a response and have to rely on her two sons to help getting settled like many others have mentioned.
Thirdly, if you do not see a water hose upon arrival you will need to wait for the sons to get home to bring it out and show you where you hook up. The water connection is between the white trailer and the fence in a black rectangular box about 12”x15” I believe they may bring the water hose inside during the winter when unoccupied.
Other than that, cannot really complain, it served its purpose and was easy to find and back in. Snowed on us about 5-6 days out of the 14.

Perfect for any tiring long commute. We were able to rest comfortably away from the noise of trains and traffic yet close enough to the highway to go back on the road by morning.

We booked on the same day & arrived in the dark at 8:30 pm… absolutely lovely find on our route . The temps we as low as 14° F and we were able to run our little heater . We were tired after almost a 600 mile drive day & missed the parking spot .. it’s marked well with 2 little lanterns . The host answered our phone call & we settled in for a nice nights rest . The dogs loved hanging out with some freedom ( we definitely picked up after them) and we so appreciate that option at this spot. Nice & level gravel spot & quite large . Thank you so much!!!

The day before I was to arrive the temps were to be in the teens. I tried twice to connect with owner but got no reply. I didn't have a 50 foot RV electric cord which she states I would need to connect to power so I canceled in lieu of finding a place where I could connect to power to keep warm. The next day I still have not heard from owner to maybe get a refund but understand that may not be possible but still to not have any communication is not cool.

Great area, not to far off the beaten path. But far enough to have no road noise. Beautiful sunset and red rocks. Easy to get to.

I am a senior woman who is single, and I drive my van back-and-forth across the country all the time. I love this place. It ticked all the boxes for me. It had everything I needed, the view was beautiful, Melissa was a wonderful communicator, And I felt so safe. It was quiet. I slept like a baby. Very easy to get in and out of. I am going to make this a “go to” stop every time. I drive the 40 from Coast Coast. I will be back Melissa. Thank you so much..

I never did hear anything from the owner, but the directions were perfect, and everything was where it needed to be. Water, sewer, and electric were perfect!
The price was amazing. The location is SUPER convenient to big gas station and interstate. I would stay here again in a heart beat. I just hope someone checks on the owner… never heard anything from him/her and the car outside sat there the whole time. I knocked on door, but no answer.

Love how quiet the location is. The views of the countryside are amazing. Easy to get in to the space. Will definitely use this location again.

We couldn't find this property. The directions took us miles out of our way along very rough roads to the top of a mountain. We then backtracked for many more miles, and nothing in the description showed up for us in reality at the location. It seemed very sketchy and confusing so we left.
We could not cut and paste the Google coordinates to find our way. There was no LED sign or marking of any kind at the location.

Great spot! Melissa is a lovely host and the site is off of a really quiet road so we could wander and roam freely with our pups. Beautiful, tranquil setting.

Exactly what I was looking for! Right off the freeway, very quiet place to pitch a tent.
It gets very windy, I recommend blocking the wind with your vehicle.. wish I thought of it.
