With millions of acres of federal land, Coconino County has long been a good place to get outside and sleep under the stars.
But now, an increasing number of companies are taking advantage of that fact.
Over the last two years, the county has seen an explosion in the number of new private camping projects proposed for development, many of them clustered along State Road 64.
Between new sites and expansions of existing camping areas, there have been 14 recent applications for camping focused projects across the county, according to the county community development department.
