El Pais Motel and Campgrounds

I stayed about 2 weeks. Nice place. Excellent price. Except... I returned one day to find my stuff had been rearranged. Maybe their free range chickens got into it. That's fine. A few days later my stuff was rearranged again. Maybe they were worried about it getting damp. Nice thought. My last night I returned to find my assigned spot had shrunk to where I could barely fit. I managed to get backed in and had to figure out how to get my driver's door open without hitting the car next to me. Then I had to figure out how to get the side doors open to get my dogs out and to load my stuff. I had no choice but to make it work. I delayed making this review because I did like the place but the rearranging of my stuff twice and shrinking my spot with zero communication really bothers me.

Small campground (gravel lot) with motel. Back in spots only. Friendly staff, very fast internet, free laundry, and free free-range chicken eggs. We stayed 2 nights. There two normal full bathrooms, a kitchen, and a room to hang out in with a large TV. The place has lots of memorabilia. We happened to arrive on Easter and were given a free turkey dinner :). We will be back.

We love El Pais! So glad we found this hidden gem in Tucson. It’s a beautifully renovated Rv campground owned by a mother and daughter. Great communications, clear directions, easy arrival. Favorite parts:

• full hookups
• free chicken eggs from onsite chickens
• communal fire pit every night
• coffee every morning
• free laundry & showers
• pool and movies in the summer

Only cons are some road noise and close parking quarters, but the communal space makes up for it. We loved having a space to meet other travelers & share stories. We’ll be back!

El Pais is a very unique and eclectic place. Campers and motel guest gather under the pavilion in the afternoon and evening to cook,eat , enjoy a libation and socialize. This is a great little campground. We will stay again when back this way Free fresh free range eggs every morning.

All staff are friendly and accommodating. You'll feel right at home. Lots of very cool vintage furnishings and flashes from the past.

All I can say is wow. This place has so much character, and the hosts are fantastic. When we arrived, the boat greeted us and even helped us back in our trailer.

The host makes free hot coffee every morning and plays a movie over the pool when it’s dark out for everyone to watch.

There are hot showers, a pool, places to sit, roomy lots, and FREE laundry.

All I can say is, if you’re in the Tucson area and need a night or longer to recharge batteries and fill water, or if you just want a really nice place to stay.. STAY HERE.
