Best Campgrounds near Chiricahua, AZ

Paved road to the gate. Narrow sand and rock road after the gate. If a scratch in your paint concerns you…. proceed with caution

The sunset was breath taking. Same for the sunrise. Feels like you're on top of the world. But the winds, oh those winds!!

Not to far from highway. Road is good for all vehicles except maybe the last few spots which need a 4x4 and high clearance. Only a few spots for bigger rigs though. Nice views of the mountains. There is 1 vault toilet.

One of the standout features of Playa Dispersed Campsite is its proximity to the Willcox Playa Wildlife Area, renowned for its wintering population of sandhill cranes. During wet winters, thousands of these majestic birds can be observed, especially from mid-October through March Survival Race. Bird enthusiasts will also appreciate the presence of over 15 species of birds of prey during this period.

We stayed in a dispersed spot about a mile before Sycamore Campground - it was great! Very private and next to a babbling creek. No cell service and so very quiet and peaceful. We saw 6 turkeys! There is a long stretch of primitive road (quite rocky) to get out the campground. We also took Apache Pass to get there - and would not recommend this ‘shortcut’ - almost 30 minutes of primitive bumpy road.

Tranquil place for people and pets. Facilities, including dog park is clean and community if friendly. No worries except for no campfires and the nightly visits from javelinas. 😊

Pulled in for the night during a cross country trip. It’s exactly as it’s explained. Quiet, easy to find, dark. There was a few other campers there when we visited. Very, very close to the main drag in “downtown” Tombstone. It’s $5 per vehicle and $10 per trailer. It was my wife’s car and our pop up and my truck and a utility trailer. $30 total wasn’t bad for what it is.

No water No electricity No bathrooms but alongside the rodeo pin there was clean porta potties we used. Maybe one street light for the pull in area I can’t remember. Easy drop box payment.

Would definitely return if I was in the area again.

Camp host was nice. This is like a giant parking lot, but it is practically in Old Bisbee which is fantastic. I just stopped in overnight and it is perfect. I think there are people who stay longer term as Old Bisbee is very cool. If your goal is to hang near town, this cannot be beat.

March 6th 2024 camped here. Got here about 6 PM and the lagoon was filled with cranes. Got amazing pictures of them. In the morning the lagoon was empty. You must have to get here during certain migrations.

Watch out for the cattle including bulls. They haven’t bothered me but just want to make sure you’re aware they’re around and could be in the road. It’s gorgeous out here and plenty of space if you keep going in. Some spots a little washed out or bumpy but the Skoolie got back here just fine so most big rigs should be good.

This place is really pretty and very easy to get hear. The camping is limited at the main viewing area but there is an overflow camping area which is very flat. During the winter months October to march I think there are about 20000 Sandhills cranes super cool. It’s in an open valley with distant mountians all around.

You can park very close to the rock formations here but I couldn’t find level ground ( bring some blocks). The road in is very wide and nice at first but gets pretty rough the farther you go plenty of spots. Alll in all a nice place.

Enter thru gate. Make sure you close behind you. Road is Sandy but doable in most vehicles.getting service with Verizon. 4g 1 or 2 bars. I'm at the last site top of the hill and it's beautiful!?

Didn’t really drive all the way in since a car that was coming out stated he wouldn’t recommend us driving in. One way road. Decided to turn back around.

Cant give my honest opinion since we were led to the overflow path not the actual entrance No one here it was nice and secluded however a lot of loose dirt that gets everywhere. There was a one way road that you can take I wouldn’t recommend 40ft Rv taking the small path. Only stopped to let the dogs out and have some leg time off leash. Dry during the time we were there.

50$ a night on debit or credit card or 45 $ cash place was small and super cute walking distance from all the shops, we did bring in our 40ft Rv with ease, only 30amp hook ups. Small side area to take your dogs to restroom. Overall loved the view of the open copper mind near the office. The guy running the place was really nice. No complaints. Camped here for Christmas

Wi-fi non existent, bathrooms under construction, otherwise good for a week.

This campground has nicely spaced sites with lots of green around them. A 3 mile nature walk from the campsite. Very heavy canopy overhead. Sadly it took out the top of our campers ladder 😕Longer vehicles won’t make the road. Our Rv got a broken

Staff was friendly and helpful. The facilities were clean. The low light made the stargazing great.

We ended up staying longer than planned, very nice place close to bisbee but far enough to enjoy some quiet and beautiful night sky. Clean facilities with hot showers. the clubhouse is also a great place to hangout, with lots of appliances free to use. Owners very sweet and always here to help. Highly recommend and will be back!! They have RV sites with full hookups but also dry camping sites
