Best Campgrounds near Catalina, AZ

Great place to camp away from the busy city. Great place to just park and relax

Loved this campsite! The cactuses and shrubs provided enough privacy between each site for it to feel like it was just us out there, and shielded us from the road as well. Absolutely beautiful landscape to walk around with Saguaros and Chollas everywhere. Watch out for cactus pieces on the ground when you drive in!

Several spots off a dirt road that parallels the main road here. Accessed relatively easily (slowly) in my 23 Ft Class C. Some road noise.

This is a great spot near Tucson! Clean quiet spot while you're exploring the area.

Beautiful scenery. Very full campground but everyone is friendly! Nice loop to have kids run around. Can be a lot of traffic, in and around. Not ideal for little ones but still a beautiful place. Clean grounds. Some spaces are tight to get into so be ready especially the one we were reserved. Worth it can’t wait for the rest of the weekend.

Very nice and quiet place to stay for an extended time.

We had a great experience and ended up staying two nights! Our original plan was to stay in the upper half of the mountain, but many sites were closed (even after opening dates); I imagine due to snow and weather. We loved our specific spot here at Molino - #13 - it offered seclusion and plenty of space for our tent. You do hear a bit of road noise, but didn’t deter from the experience.

This camp ground was awesome. Has electrical hook ups and a dump station down the road. When night time came, the stars were amazing. No light pollution there with unobstructed views of the night skies. Rest rooms were clean and well maintained. Make reservations as this Campground in popular. Camping area ground host was really great. We had an issue with our electric at the sight and he sorted it out quickly. We had a great stay there and will go back again.

Great place to stay. Clean and friendly. Close to shopping and Saguaro National Park

I was unable to locate the camp, and I tried several times calling the phone number to get an exact location. Each time I got a voicemail and they never returned my call. I drove to where I thought the camp should be, but I couldn’t find it so I ended up camping on the side of the road near there

Extraordinarily well maintained, spotless, full amenity RV Park, catering primarily to long-term, seasonal customers, with a high proportion of sites occupied by park models. Not really a place for short-term campers passing through, as we were, although we certainly felt welcomed.

A national campground on the edge of Tucson Arizona with spectacular views, mountains, hiking, and biking trails. Quiet and campers spaced far apart. Beautiful!

We have camped up here a few times in the last year and it is always great. You will want 4x4 to get up farther into the pass. Like mentioned before you won’t want too big of a rig and you do lose cell reception as you head east. It gets chilly in the fall and winter but it’s great relief from the heat of Arizona.

This KOA is a good place for families and it has a lot of amenities. The sites are close together and not private unless you have a patio site for an extra cost. The sites by the playground and clubhouse area are noisy during the day with children playing as children do. There is road noise and frequent trains which didn't bother me. There is also a neighboring horse ranch which had loud music for a while. This park is well-maintained, clean, friendly, and safe, but it can be noisy. It is also very busy and the wifi is very slow and unreliable. Only 15 minutes from Picacho Peak State Park. If you're looking for a quiet place I would not recommend it. If you have children and enjoy a neighborhood/community atmosphere it's a great place to be. The staff does a good job of driving around and maintaining the grounds. They also escort you to your site.

We were dry /primitive campers saving our coins here and there camping! This was an easy quick $10 but I do recommend getting there before closing hrs. As you have to call the camp host to let you in. There is no designated camp zones it is a very dry area ofcourse being in the middle of Arizona. But we were prepared with sleeping pads and tent tarps for comfort. But for 10 bucks you can’t beat that! There was an animal 4H fair of some sort going on which we enjoyed even through all our sleep! The animals did seem to “sleep with us!” There is showers and easy convience to I-10/I20? Also Walmart/standard fast food defiantly more RV friendly but with the right gear you should be fine! I love supporting places like this over the hotel industry

The host offered to help with anything we may have forgotten or needed. Great fires every night. Cool spot
