Best Campgrounds near Elfrida, AZ

Large level valley with approx 20 designated spots. No facilities. Awesome rock views. 4 miles bumpy dirt road is worth. We did it with a 25 foot travel trailer

Excellent spot for views and privacy. The road is mostly well-maintained — a couple bumpy patches, but my Outback handled it fine.

This was our first camping trip ever. I picked this site cuz it sounded interesting and it was. Especially if you want to see the ranch lifestyle. They had at least 10 horses that they were training, breeding etc; etc; I found it to be a fascinating experience. 1 goat running around, a few friendly dogs, chickens and peacocks. I would camp there again in a heartbeat.

Nice dispersed by unique rock formations. But in mid April it was 98 degrees. Nice in morning and amazing sunset. Lots of other campers. Pit toilets and tables at entrance. Not really a big rig place in my opinion.

From chiricahua entrance head on FSR 42. A mile or two in many many sites along dry creek in the trees. Some Otv and motorcycle activity during day. We stayed only 15 minutes from monument.

Did tent camping and ground was rough be nice place and clean bathrooms

Nice clean campground. Small. Gets very busy during spring.

Great spot for a night or two to listen and watch the sandhill cranes. Unfortunately some locals tagged my van with a paintball. Be cautious.

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.

This location is near the I-10 and great for an overnight while passing thru. No amenities, and I wouldn’t suggest building fires or setting up long term camp. Gorgeous sunset/sunrise and huge variety of birds to view.

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.

Lots of road noise. This campground is located right next to a highway and on an exit. There is constant road noise from the highway. If you are parked next to the highway you are approx 12 feet from the actual highway road itself and can feel and hear every single vehicle that drives by.

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.
