These sycamore- and oak-shaded sites are located near the end of Turkey Creek Road in an area that serves as a jumping off place into the Chiricahua Wilderness. A number of trails start in the vicinity of the campground and climb to destinations and connecting trails high in the mountains. If you’re a hiker or an equestrian, you’ll find this an excellent base of operations with enough nearby trail miles to keep you busy for quite a while. Note: Black bears in area.

Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Quiet getaway
-This was a great little spot! There is no light pollution besides maybe a neighbor that forgot to turn off their lights. -Kartchner Cave is walking distance with a great observation center even if you don’t take a tour into the caves. -Couple stores within 20miles for any forgotten items. -Spots a very large and spaced well. -Restrooms/showers well maintained *Shower water pressure is less than desired. -Visited Tombstone, AZ as well. About a 30min drive. **Watch your step, we came across a Diamond Back Rattle Snake about 4 feet from our picnic bench. ***It’s Arizona, summer times will be hot, our temp in June was 108.
Tombstone RV & Campground
Close site to Tombstone
Quiet park, level and clean gravel sites. About 5 minutes from the town of Tombstone. It’s was getting down to freezing temperatures in November briefly over night. You can rent an outdoor fireplace and buy firewood on site too.
Tombstone RV & Campground
Vacation
The place was clean. People were friendly close to attractions and enjoyed our stay very much. Would recommend it. Five star bathrooms were clean.
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Friendly clean campground
Stayed one night will return to explore more. Clean restrooms, nice showers, friendly camp hosts.
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Fairly new State Park with most of the amenities and a cavern
We stayed here for 5 nights at the end of March, 2023. The campground has paved roads, showers, dump station, water & electric hookups and the usual campsite set-up.
Three trails are located within the park. The campground itself is large, sites somewhat spaced apart and the grounds have a lot of stubby trees which were leafless when we were there.
A large visitor center is near the park entrance and the cavern is up the hill behind the center. We reserved and did the Rotunda/Throne Tour. It was very cool and our 1st cave tour. I would suggest reading the rules for tours before reserving. Access to the cavern is very controlled as far as how you get in and what you can take. There's quite a story about how this park came into being.
The location of the park allows quick access to the I-10 and the town of Benson, about 12 miles away. Other interesting sights are within an hour or so of the park.
Desert Oasis Campground
Great campground
Met up with traveling family for a week of visiting and exploring the area. Was last minute gathering and owner, James made it work . Two big rigs and a campervan. Beautiful views. Conveniently located to many attractions. Definitely recommend this campground. Owner and staff very friendly.
Wells Fargo RV Park
Wells Fargo RV Park
Barking dogs, no parking for passenger vehicle or tow vehicle. The stench of marijuana smoke and drunks yelling. Place is a frigging dump. Close to town big deal! Clean that crap hole up!
Tombstone RV & Campground
Very nice
Grounds are well kept and staff are very nice. Highly recommend.
Desert Oasis Campground
Real normal campground
Sites have spaces between rigs to breathe. There is a large club house for weekly get togethers with food. Pool tables, paddle ball, library, videos, showers, rest rooms. Laundry area with washer/dryers. Tons of space for boon dockers. Close to Bisbee, Warren, and a Safeway shopping ctr . Minutes from Sierra Vista. Beautiful sky
Desert Oasis Campground
Nice place to shower with some amenities (games & movies)
Nice little place to shower, and relax. Lots of wildlife. Though I would say tent sites are a bit pricey, compared to all the free camping in the area. Extremely affordable for RVs compared to area though. Bisbee is a wonderful town and I’d def recommend checking it out while you’re around. An air bnb in the area would be spectacular!
Desert Oasis Campground
The Mountains!
Lovely piece of desert surrounded by mountains. Trails to meander and a clubhouse with tables, chairs, couches, library, games and other amenities. Nice people.
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Very nice place
The camp sites are large, offer electric and water. You dump your gray and black at a location just outside of the camp area for free. Lightly shaded. There are picnic benches and fire pits at each site. You can easily walk to the cavern discovery center. There is ample area for little ones to ride bikes or play. Pretty views of the surrounding hills. There are clean restrooms. The stars at night are beautiful!
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Not exactly my cup of tea
This is an excellent well-maintained state park worthy of the high price for a simple asphalt pad. Here sites are very close together. Highway noise continues well into the night. The groundskeepers also add noise to the general noise pollution to keep the pristine garden like appearance of this high desert area looking immaculate. My preference would actually be for something a little more natural. Give me a national forest service logging road any day. Thanks bye
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Lovely, spacious and great facilities
Each site is really big and everything is clean and well maintained. Nearly all sites have electrical and water with a dump station located near the entrance. Each site has a table and fire pit as well as shade from trees. The park hosts the caverns and cave tours and a museum about the area. We are headed on a cave tour today! Nice trails surround the park and clearly marked for either hiking, bike or equestrian.
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Beautiful high desert location
Set in the foothills of the Whetstone Mountains and located next to the amazing Karchner Caverns.
All pull through sites have 20, 30 and 50 amp service and water. Back in spots have 20/30 amp and water. Free dump station.
Sites are all paved and have plenty of room. Set in a mesquite grove and spaced well apart.
Tombstone RV & Campground
Great place.
The people ar this place were very informative, the bathrooms were clean and it was a great spot to visit Tombstone. The dog spot was clean and fun.
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Great Night Sky
Generally quite, 830pm light discipline makes for a pleasant night sky viewing. Easy hiking near by. Large clean spaces and with RV slot.
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Beautiful campground. Tours available in the caverns.
Everything about this campground was great! Lots of mesquite trees and prickly pears and birds. Campground hosts were friendly and helpful. The bathrooms and showers were clean and had plenty of hot water. There are easy trails and more difficult trails for hiking.
The caverns are definitely worth the tour and the nature center has some interesting exhibits.
Tombstone RV & Campground
Clean and Quiet
About a mile outside of Tombstone. Very clean, large/wide sites, nice pool, dog parks, large clubhouse with TV, shuffleboard, ping pong, etc. Very helpful staff. Lots of snow birds when we were here...we stayed 2 nights.
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Solid campsites at a designated dark sky park
Camp host was friendly and helpful. Bathrooms were clean and worked well. Nice that the trailheads are just a few min walk from the campgrounds. The foothills loop is easy and takes you all around the area without being too challenging. Incredible stargazing experience- no lights after 8pm I believe and Kartchner Caverns State Park is a designated dark sky park by the International Dark Sky Association. Glad to live only an hour away from this Arizona State Park.
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Outstanding!!
Super clean, sites are spacious and all with outstanding views. Very impressed with this park. The park does not allow you to come early to check in and that’s because they clean the sites, rack the gravel and make sure everything is pristine for your stay. Everything was outstanding. The showers were clean, the water was good and electric was stable. Each site had a fire pit and picnic table.
As others have said, it’s a dart sky park so the stars are popping out of the sky.
There are bumper outs hikes to enjoy the scenery. All levels of exertion. I highly recommend this gem of a park.
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Sweet spot
I love a campground that has hiking trails right there! The campgrounds wonderful… Showers are awesome. You just have to do the tour of the keys. It is a great spot you will not regret stopping here.
Desert Oasis Campground
Quiet nature and large sites
This resort is not fancy with a lot of bells and whistles but does have large sites, peace and quiet, a laid back vibe, friendly host and residents, and nature trails with great desert birds. And this campground is very dog friendly. Laundry, showers and bathrooms are all in great working order. Clubhouse with pool tables, Dish TVs, library, dvds and pellet stoves is very cozy. Propane can be ordered and dropped at your door! Mountain Views all around and sunsets are amazing.
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Nice place
Stayed here in November of 2021 in a pop up camper. All the sites were full during my stay. Bathrooms and sites were all well taken care of. Camp hosts were very friendly but not intrusive. Fire wood was also available for sale. Definitely check out the caverns, you won’t be disappointed. You do need to purchase tickets ahead of time. There is plenty of hiking in the area too!
Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground
Great trails
Hiked the 4.1 mile trail with 4 and 2 year old. It was a 3 hour adventure that felt like 5 different bikes bc of all the different landscapes the trail takes you through. Truly one of best hikes I’ve ever done. Only negatives of campsite were the shower water pressure and the unlevel site we had.
Desert Oasis Campground
Oasis in the desert
It lives up to its name. Super friendly camp host and staff. Quiet and remote. Huge sites and large well equipped clubhouse. Only 2sets of laundry machines so you need to time that right but never supper busy when we needed them. Nice nature trail around large property. I put the loop @ 1.8 miles but they claim 3 mi. total trail. We are wintering here. Close to Douglas and Bisbee.
Desert Oasis Campground
Great Amenities at good price
Small campground with 28 level sites. All hookups avail. Tent sites offered dry or with electricity. $17.00 - $20.00. However, those sites are next to club house. We elected to take a full hookup site, although We only needed electricity. $27.00 + tax with Good Sam discount. 1 shower for all and 1 ea toilets for M& W. Nice club House with pool tables, TV’s, etc. Great wi-fi and cell coverage (AT&T). Great accommodating host, clean facilities, great views.
