Camping At Kelly Place

We now accommodate tents and RVs!

Kelly Place Camp Ground Area

We have added several RV sites and a cozy campground to the property. Unlike many campgrounds, the camping sites we offer are not crowded. Most are located among fruit trees and near the beautiful red rock cliffs. All are within walking distance of archaeological ruins and fantastic hiking trails.

Choose from 3 full hook-up sites, 2 partial hook-up sites (no sewer) and almost anywhere else you will fit without hook-ups! We have added 5 tent camping sites that use a common rest room facility (w/shower).

As with all Kelly Place accommodations we include use of the main lodge and, of course, a hearty country style breakfast each morning. Enjoy our relaxed southwestern style hospitality.
