Picacho / Tucson NW KOA Journey

Jonathan Hoke

Right off I10 easily found. Very clean, well taken care of. Management was very customer friendly. Sadly we didn't need to spend the night there and left early. We will however return for a weekend stay. The full hook up pull through lots are spacious and very well kept. It was very peaceful and quite while we were there for our short time.

Stayed here again on our trip east to Florida. Beautiful mountain views and a horse stable next door is fun to see. This park is small but expertly laid out, spacious sites with Adirondack chairs, dining table with umbrella, grill and firepit. Luxury sites offer a concrete patio and several have fenced dog pens with shade cover. Camp store has a few snacks and souvenirs, and staff are attentive and sweet! Both times were too cold for swimming but the pool would be wonderful in summer!

Maintained to perfection. Not a destination campground but certainly the cleanest. Ladies, the laundry room is spotless with 6 new washers and dryers. Laundry prices are reasonable. The campground itself is very pricey so check in advance . The more costly sites have a paved patio with nice outdoor chairs, an umbrella, and a fire ring. Other sites have a picnic table and small metal fire ring and are gravel. Raked daily and level. Management cares about the campground.

Super sweet and friendly check in person that was very personable. Clean, easy pull in, level spots that didn't require leveling for our 34 ft travel trailer. Easy in and out from I-10. We have stayed at dozens of KOAs across the country and those are all things we don't take for granted because all i mentioned above is very rare! We will definitely be back!

We LOVED our stay at the Picacho KOA!! This campground is neat as a pin, and has a great desert aesthetic. You’re outside of town here, so the stargazing after dark is phenomenal (as is the bird and wildlife watching!) - but there’s plenty of nearby activities within 10-15 minutes like Picacho Peak State Park and a fun local farm where you can feed ostriches, of all the things! Felicia, the campground owner, and her family do an amazing job at making campers feel welcome and helping everyone have a great stay - right down to a Thanksgiving potluck for those of us who were away from home during the holidays! We really appreciated the well stocked store, where we could get firewood and even pick up some equipment we needed for our camper. The heated pool is also a wonderful amenity. We travel with dogs, so having a safe and enjoyable dog yard is really important for us, and Picacho KOA delivered!!! The spacious dog run has two entrance points for convenience and safety, is well lit for evening potty and play breaks, and our dogs had a blast on the agility equipment in the yard. This is a campground we would be thrilled to stay at again in the future!

Did not plan on stopping but I-10 closed due to a major wreck. The staff here was extremely friendly and helpful. Just stayed the one night, enjoyed the pool, and would definitely stay there again. On the downside, there did seem to be a lot of flies, probably due to the horses next door.

Very nice campground. Friendly staff escorted us to our site. Spacious sites are crushed stone with picnic table. Some sites have concrete patios and even individual dog pens. We had no trouble getting level. All utilities worked as expected. Good WiFi signal. Good T-mobile signal. Wide roads are crushed stone and easy to navigate in any size rig. The park is nicely landscaped with trees, shrubs and cactus. Everything is very well maintained. Good signage from the highway. We were only here for one night, but would have been happy to stay longer.

Always skeptical about staying at a journey. This one was the best journey we have stayed at. Friendly staff. Park was so neat and tidy. Lots of updated sites. Lovely to see some eucalyptus trees! We loved our stay and will definitely be back

November 2021 we had the pleasure of being stranded here an entire month due to a truck "accident" while we were waiting for parts. Management (owners) are a lovely couple with a family that take customer service to a whole new level! This by far was the best KOA we've stayed at during a time of duress as site, location, availability and obviously customer service were impeccable during our unexpected detour. Horse stables adjacent make for ranch like environment with pecan tree farms leading up to the park. Would recommend for all ages at any given time!

This is a very nice campground. The sites are spacious and the little patio we had with our site was very cool. Everything was well maintained and the park is kept very clean. Last but most important, the staff is incredibly friendly here - everyone did their job with a smile. A very well run campground, we will definitely be back.
