Description

Our natural, unspoiled desert setting is the main draw to Desert Trails RV Park in Tucson, Arizona. But we have also accumulated many amenities since 1998, and we surprise our guests with the extent of our facilities. We are an adult 40+ RV park and attract an energetic customer base. This is reflected in our hiking, biking, dances, aerobics, and other outdoor activities. We offer a campground atmosphere, unlike other RV Parks, and don’t offer “annual rates” for permanent residents. Every “off-season” we upgrade infrastructure as well as improve existing buildings and create new spaces for expanding activities. The Trailer Life (Good Sam) directory recognizes this too, by increasing our “ratings” to 9/9/9. Not under any measurable category are the amazing artists who perform 2-3 times per week. Our enthusiastic audiences also like the conventional “shows.” All evenings are well attended and generate an “electric” intimate atmosphere which encourages top names to return to our relatively small venue at Desert Trails. On nights without live music, we fill up the rest of the schedule with lectures, bingo, karaoke, poker, and games.

Nice 40+ Campground

This is a nice 40+ campground right on the edge of Saguaro National Park. The sites are gravel with full hook ups. I had plenty of room to maneuver my 19’ travel trailer. They have planned activities -at least in the winter- which is nice to see. There seem to be a lot of long term guests here and they are very social with each other.

Great RV park for exploring Tucson area

So many amenities, awesome staff, clean, everything worked as advertised. Wifi was a little spotty from our site, just a few tv channels with antenna (no cable). Laundry, showers, TV lounge, food trucks, entertainment, etc.

Nice and neighborly

We stayed a week while taking care of some business in Tucson. Nice place full of snowbirds. People very friendly. Lot's of activities and clean showers. A little too crowded for my taste. Good value for the price.
