Camping is one of the most fun and affordable activities you can possibly do, and one campground is taking it to a whole new level. Located in Camp Verde, Jackpot Ranch is one of the best campgrounds for families in Arizona, complete with a petting zoo, playgrounds, a waterslide, and teepees you can spend the night in. All ages are sure to have a great time here!
The ranch was established in 1998 as a horse boarding facility, but it has since expanded to accommodate overnight guests as well.

Despite being so close to our state’s largest city, the sprawling, 85-acre getaway feels like a whole different world.




You can also spend the night under a sky full of stars in a traditional teepee. Each one comfortably accommodates six, and there’s a nearby firepit where you can make s’mores and tell ghost stories.




From a huge treehouse and several other playgrounds to outdoor movies and a game room, boredom isn’t even in the realm of possibility.




You’ll see deer, goats, pigs, ducks, rabbits, and chickens, all of whom are eager to make your acquaintance.




There’s also a full-size rodeo arena if your family happens to be involved in horseback riding!
