Desert Trails RV Park

Our favorite RV park! Great location, price is right and people are super friendly. It backs up to some pretty fabulous desert trails that lead to the mountain park. There are also good food trucks (Mexican, Italian, bbq) that come 3 days a week. They have hot showers, laundry, water, ice machine, 2 dog parks, a warm swimming pool and full hook ups. The favorite part of our stay were the 2 resident owls that come out every night at dusk.

Very nice people. They definitely pack you in like sardines but that is typical of RV parks so if you are used to that, it is fine, just not our thing. Great access to trails for hiking and mountain biking. My only real complaint is they advertise wifi. We walked around and connected to several of their hotspots. None of them worked for us or our friends who were staying in another spot. Don’t advertise wifi if you don’t really have it, that is very frustrating.

Really nice RV park. Good showers and laundry. Really great hiking trails connected to the park. Friendly staff that loaned us a 50amp adapter our first night. Very good value for the price. Water pressure is not great and they don't let you stream on the wifi. Overall the wifi is pretty bad.

Fantastic park. Sites are a decent size for a private park. There are tons of things to do here and there is a daily calendar of events. Trails through the desert are fantastic. And the water is city and cleaner than I am generally used to.

Love this quirky little place! Friendly people, miles of hiking and biking right out of our doorsteps. Great location just far enough out of the traffic of Tucson. The desert sunsets are amazing. There are food trucks many days from 3-6. One visit and you'll vow to return!

Nice park quiet park , out of the way, good rates. Paved roads, gravel parking sites. Some back in sites were a challenge , not quite on top of each other . Hiking biking trails right out of the park. Did not visit the bathrooms or showers will not include that in the rating. Laundry is available in a couple areas. Would stay again.

We’ve been here now for 2 months and realize what a special place it is. Beautiful trails in our backyard. Really nice staff. Active community of RVers. We’re coming back next year in hopes of experiencing it after this pandemic! Highly recommend to anyone who loves hiking and biking.

Quirky fun place to stay with lots of trails for hiking and biking immediately nearby in the Sonoran desert. A very friendly crowd of long term residents here. It’s about a 15 minute drive to Tucson, but the food carts come in every other day make it a lazy tasty dining experience. The staff was very accommodating when we had to extend our stay for a week because of truck issues. The monthly rate was very affordable. No kids allowed so just be aware of that before booking (personally I loved that fact).

Wonderful, natural setting, lots of scattered cactus gardens, only a few park models, so not clique like a lot of parks. Been coming here since 2012, love all the activities! Not as many this year because of Covid, but I'm sure it will get back to usual next year.

Quiet and well run park with lots of friendly people. Nice trails for bikes and hikers just steps away from your site. Two awesome dog parks with agility toys and shade. Clean and modern laundry & restrooms. Sites are pretty narrow and compact, not much wiggle room.

This is an awesome campground right next to Saguaro National Park West. We rode our fat tire bikes on the trails through the desert. It was surreal riding a single track through all the cacti. What an adventure. We spent about 5 hours at the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum. It was truly amazing!! Can’t say enough good about this whole place!!

Beautiful desert surroundings with many trails to hike or bike. Panoramic sunset views from the observation tower. Clean and private restrooms and showers. Campsites are big with plenty of extra room for chairs, canopies, vehicle, etc. Very friendly campers. Call ahead to see if spaces are available and come and pick your spot from available spaces.

Nice smallish campground. Honor system payment when we arrived. We took a 30 amp pull-thru full hook-up site. Roads in the campground are a little tight but the sites are big enough. Miles of wonderful desert trails right off the campground. A delightful place.

Lovely, quaint, friendly, beautiful, nostalgic and clean! What a wonderful stay. We finally found a perfectly level spot in an RV camp on our trip!!! The staff is very welcoming and friendly. The place is teaming with desert life in the way of beautiful cacti, birds such as great horned owls, quail, woodpeckers and more. The “hill top view” of the sunrise in the morning was a beautiful display of God’s creation again. There was a good sense of community here, even though we were just staying one night. The showers and restrooms were very clean and set up for privacy. They had disinfectant spray on the sink counter to keep the place clean and covid free. We would love to come back and stay longer.
