I arrived mid-April, scoped out the campground, saw maybe 10 spots taken out of the 208 sites, picked my site right next to the bathroom, which would not be a good spot if lots of people are there... The door slams hard & loud, but is very clean. Wear close toed shoes. There were scorpions about, but I digress... I made my reservation using my phone & the visitor's center wi-fi, which was available after hours. The campsites are beautifully decorated by mother nature... 15-20 foot organ pipe cacti, 12 foot saguaro, trees & other cacti all around. There is a lovely walking path for walking dogs, hiking, etc. I felt like the entire campground was mine for the night. Everybody needs to go there at least once. There is nothing like it anywhere!

The good is: This park is amazing with its organ pipe cactus and other plant species. Volunteers are friendly, sites have concrete slabs 36-40 ft long, restrooms are clean and numerous and night skies are beautiful. The not so good is some of the sites have become overgrown. Creosote and palo verde trees are encroaching up to and sometimes over the concrete pads. So was the situation in our case - Site 73. I get it that we all need to allow nature to take its course but when you can’t open your awning because trees are in the way and you can’t pull forward to get away from the tree because the creosote bushes are growing where your slide out will be one wonders about the level of maintenance going on. Second - it is advertised that the night skies are wonderful which they are but having very bright lights emanating from the restrooms all night is a very big distraction from the very dark skies. Perhaps switching to a lower light level would still serve to provide a safe entry to the restroom without ruining the skies. It was a very good visit despite these minor issues but it could have been a great visit if a little more care and thought went into the campsites.

We've traveled all over the lower 48 and parts of Canada, and Twin Peaks Campground in Organ Pipe Cactus NM is one of our top 3 places to stay. Every campsite is fantastic and there are even a few with shade structures. The bathrooms are always clean and if you wait until the evening, you can even take a hot shower (the showers rely on a solar heater). The sunrises...sunsets...stargazing just can't be beat.

Found It By Accident

Well-kept campground with wildlife, but uneven sites. The campground is clean and well maintained, and there are lots of quail in the area, which was nice to see. However, most of the sites are not level and slope downward toward the front when you drive in. There are designated tent-only sites, and we chose one because it was the most level option available. All sites are $20 (RVs or tent), and we confirmed availability on the website before arriving, there were no tent campers at all. A volunteer stopped by to “educate” us on the rules, which we were already aware of and had reviewed beforehand. The interaction came across as condescending. It may be worth evaluating how unlevel many of the sites are before addressing campers in that manner.

It is a beautiful natural setting! Did not encounter any NPS employees, but the campsites were very clean. Bathrooms were clean and everything in the campground was in good order. In our case we did not worry about the signs saying do not occupy the site without a reservation, It was impossible we did not have a reservation, but we found the site we wanted and got online because there was a little bit of cell phone service and booked the site on Recreation.gov. so it all worked! Also our bathrooms did not have any way to dry your hands so bring your own towel. We rode our bikes around and walked the trail It was really nice!

The camp ground is fairly big. When we get there March 28 2025, only about 10% of the site were occupied. All sites are pretty plate and spacious. No trees and very few shrubs and cactus. There is a bathroom with solar heated shower heads.

GREAT campground and park. Sites are huge and have concrete surface. Several sites have a shade structure next to the pad. There are no hookups at the sites, but there is a dump station with potable water. Did not use the bathrooms but they looked clean and well maintained. Able to run generator from 8am-6pm, but if you have solar there is plenty of sunshine!

One of the best camp grounds we have stayed in . Very clean with great rest rooms. Very informative and entertaining evening Ranger Talks. Incredible scenery.

Very nice campground part of the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. Full bathrooms and several good hikes to do from the campground. The Rangers also put on several activities each day like birding.

Sites are well dispersed. Dry camping but plenty of water spigots. Central drain out. Night skies are fantastic. There is a tent camping area where generators are not allowed and an RV section with set hours for using a generator. Access to individual sites can be tricky for larger rigs so plan your entry..... hitting a cactus is a no-no. Very quiet.

Nice campground. Great showers, and clean. They have a ranger program every night at the amphitheater. The path is brick and has lights. Beautiful. Highly recommend. All sites are pull through. A double bonus.

Kristen McNally

Excellent campground with very nice park rangers and staff!☺️ They even had a couple of patio talks at the visitor center and fun and informative programs at the pavilion in the evenings. Beautiful area to hike. Will go back.

Awesome National Monument. Out of the way for most travelers but very worthwhile to see the Sanora Desert at its best. Good Ranger programs. Lots of hiking trails. Beautiful!

The location of the campground is amazing. The facilities a very clean. The ranger evening program was very entertaining. Perfect for stargazing. Maybe needs more shade.

This is a very good campground and we enjoyedour stay. There are no hookups and generators are only allowed 2-hours in the morning and 2-hours in the afternoon. Site access is a little tight but definitely doable. The biggest downside (ans why I didn't give it 5 stars) is sites are oriented in such a manner that the patio side of your RV receives full afternoon sun. We stayed in a 34' Class A RV.
