Within Coronado National Forest, Marijilda provides dispersed camping along a creek in a remote setting accessed by rough roads. The US Forest Service manages this drive-in and walk-in site, which accommodates RVs up to 10 feet and allows campfires, pets, and alcohol.
Access requires navigating several miles of rough road with one shallow water crossing, and four-wheel drive is needed for departure. The camping area sits directly on the creek but lacks developed facilities—no toilets or trash service are provided. Cell service through Verizon works intermittently. Nearby Coronado NF Dispersed near Carls Spring offers another backcountry option just half a mile northeast.
