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.

Unique RV park that is out of the way but within driving distance to decent restaurants. The park is an adult playground with a library, TV room, and other nice amenities. It also has a hilltop walkway for a nice view of the mountains. It has two very nice dog parks which were thoroughly enjoyed by our dogs, and was even stocked with dog toys! We did self check in since the office was closed on the day we arrived. Several of the suggested spots on the list left on the instrument sheet by the office were blocked off by cones which was confusing because why would those spots be put on the list if you didn't want people parking there? A resident of the park came out of his RV and was helpful and told us to just park anywhere we wanted to since the park was fairly empty so we did. The nights were very quiet and we appreciated the park being away from traffic since we slept very well. We would stay at this park again if we visit the Tucson area.

Six stars. Most unique, entertaining, ecclectic and downright fun place to stay in the Tucson desert. Best cactus gardens to be found anywhere. Our winter home from now on. Owner and staff are magnificent and have taken good care of us throughout the on-going pandemic.

We spent 6 weeks here and would definitely stay again. The showers were hot with good pressure and showers and restrooms were very clean. Our hookups were great. The people were very friendly and we took part in many of the offered activities. We could mountain bike and hike just out the back of the RV park and enjoyed many sunsets from the outlook.

Great place, our 3rd year spending the winter here. Lots to do, many activities, great professional entertainment twice a week. Not your average RV park.

We love this Rv Park. We came last year for 2 weeks immediately fell in love with the people and the place. When we left last year we booked for this year for a whole month. Location is wonderful. So many activities and entertainment. Our favorite Rv Park.
