Great destination! Enjoyed the open trail and peaceful outdoor atmosphere.

Great place to camp , beautiful views

PROs: Beautiful campground. Most of the campsites were spaced far enough away from each other to offer some privacy and seclusion. There were a lot of trees, shade, cement picnic tables, and metal fire rings. Pit bathrooms are available. I didn’t use the facilities so I can’t say if they were clean. Potable water was available by hand pump. From our camp site, the view of the Tucson lights at night was breathtaking. It was quiet and all other campers were polite, friendly and respectful. The camp sites are located a fair distance from the entrance and from the highway so there was no road noise. Dumpster at the entrance was convenient. The campground is minutes from Summerhaven, the radio towers and great hiking. CONs: I think the campground is better suited for tent camping. Although smaller RVs and Trailers are allowed, there are no back-in or pull-through sites. Parking was available along the side of the road, and there were “parking lots” where there were parking spaces for several vehicles, to accommodate multiple campsites. You can park your RV and carry your stuff to a table or find a site with sufficient room to set up beside your RV. We came with friends and found 2 campsites next door to each other with enough room that we parked back to back along the side of the road with enough room to set up by our campers. We didn’t even use the tables. I also didn’t like that there was no sign at the entrance to alert new arrivals if there were any spaces left. It looked like the campground had a camp host, so I’d expect some signage to alert arrivals to the availability of campsites. There was also no way to pay by debit or credit. Luckily, we had cash and our friend was able to get cash in Summerhaven. IMHO, it wasn’t worth the $31 we paid. We’ve stayed at nicer places for less. We arrived so late, so beggars can’t be choosers. The free camping was full. It was nice, and we were glad to have 2 sites together. I can’t say I wouldn’t go there again. It just wouldn’t be my first choice.

Very relaxing atmosphere, nice size lots, fire pits and bathroom nearby
