The home was built by my parents in ‘82. My Mom was an avid hiker and outdoors person. She collected and planted agave pups in the yard and tended to them over the years. Because they’re watered and the pups are removed each spring they continue to grow to mammoth size.
Once they bloom the plant dies. 3 have bloomed, producing 40’ stalks.
Agave Americana.

Nestled in a canyon full of giant oak trees , you’ll be amazed that you’re in southern Arizona. The dirt road is ideal for walks and bicycle rides. The property is 4 miles from the town of patagonia, just 2 miles in from highway 82. Patagonia lake state park is 9 miles away. There is a hammock & picnic table in the upper yard surrounded by mammoth agave plants and oaks. There is much info online for visitors to this area including
There are 2 sites available but I prefer not to rent them simultaneously, unless the groups are together since they’re very close together. ( not much privacy).

Disclosure: I am a drummer and often have practice and rehearsals in my home. The basement is approx. 300 yards from the campsite. There may be heard a thump thump in the distance at times. Rehearsals never last after 8:30 pm Also I have 2 elderly cats that lounge around outside, usually pretty far from the site but free to wander during the day. (If you have a dog that adamantly chases cats with killer instinct , this could become a problem. )
We loved our stay at Thousand Oaks! Shady (a rarity in AZ), quiet, peaceful, water & electricity - who could ask for more. It’s close to Patagonia, an artsy little town with great birding. Cindy is a great host - hope we can return one day!
We received any help we needed to get settled in with water and electric as well as getting our big rig in the gate. Beautiful shaded sites. Quiet and private.
Cindy is a wonderful host. Her brother Steve helps her with the listing. The area is quiet and beautiful. The electrical hook up is a heavy duty extension cord not a 30 amp plug. We had a wonderful time hiking and biking around the canyon and in Patagonia. Cindy was very helpful and kind. I would visit again.
