This is a very cute RV Park on the way to Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. The park is well maintained, the grounds immaculate. They have one washer and two dryers available. Looks like they usually have two but one was out of order. They have two public shower/bathrooms. The mens is currently under construction. The other bathroom has the toilet and shower in one room. We were here for three nights and had everything we needed. It is quiet and convenient. They do business old school. Just took our reservation without a deposit or credit card. When we got here our name was written in a note book and we paid with a check to save the 4% credit card fee.

Great launching place for Rocky Point Mexico and beautiful Organ Pipe Ntl. Monument visit. Groceries across the street, stunning BLM land sunsets nearby, downtown plaza just 5 min drive. Ajo Heights Campground is maintained with a highly attentive manager. We decided to stay an extra month Feb and March because we fell in love with Ajo! Our only constructive comment is the owners need to put some money into the showers and laundry.

This is the place to stay in Ajo! Well-kept RV park with full hookups, WIFI, concrete slabs at sites, clean bathroom and laundry, friendly host, and much more charm than spending the night in one of those RV parking lot-style campgrounds. It’s also a great jumping off point for Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. The town of Ajo is lovely and well-restored with lots of active businesses and a beautiful plaza. What a special place.

Great RV park! Nice wide and clean gravel sites helps to keep down the dust. Cable TV was being worked on during our stay, but we didn't come there to watch TV. Cellular service and WiFi bandwidth is very limited, so don't plan on streaming anything.
