Best Campgrounds near Gila Bend, AZ

Nice place to escape with kids, let them run wild and enjoy the views and isolation.

Called ahead to get a one night stay and they called me back within a few minutes. We got a pull thru full hookup site for $35. It is a very clean RV park and although there are many that seem permanent they are all very well maintained. Spots are large and it doesn’t look like more than about 50 sites. They even invited us to happy hour when we arrived.

We only stayed 2 nights but it is a beautiful park. Sites are huge! They have full hookups, a do park, a car washing station, laundry and a bath house. Lots of full time snowbirds. I can see why they come here

Stopped just for the night, drove in about 2 miles. Road was a nice gravel with no ruts. Plenty of spots to choose.

I got in after dark and it was very difficult to find my reserved spot. The site markers are so small that you can’t read them from your car unless it’s daylight. There’s a train that goes by at least five times a day and night and a freeway just a few blocks away. So it’s not super quiet, however, the noise hasn’t really bothered me either.

This was a great spot out in the Sonoran desert . Tons of land to explore, I drove in about five miles and had no trouble finding a level spot . Beautiful saguora cactus and prickly pear, barrel, etc. I plan on hitting this spot again o my way back west. Highly recommend.

Really cool place something for everybody if ur active an wanna see nature an good views or if you just want a nice relaxing place to get away but don’t gotta go to far.. you will not be disappointed 👍🏽☀️🏜️

Very nice place. Quiet overnight place to stay. Gravel pads are even and clean. We'll stay here again for sure. Front ofc lady was nice as well.

We stayed in a deluxe pull-through for two days. Our site has a small fenced-in play area for our mutt. The shower house and laundry were newer, had plenty of room, and were very clean.

We chose to keep going until we hit actual BLM land, maybe one mile from the highway. The views were phenomenal and very little noise. The moon and stars were beautiful too.

It looked like there was BLM land on the North side of I8, which we’ll check out the next time we pass through here.

Even though the road is a little bumpy, any rig and trailer can make it!

I’m Lisa, the volunteer camp host here from October through Easter. I’m often on-site and happy to help! Here’s what you need to know to enjoy your stay: • About the Park: This is a peaceful, primitive, and clean county-run park. We offer shaded picnic tables, six spotless port-a-jons, and a dumpster for trash (access the side doors, as the lid is locked). Please respect the 10 mph speed limit to minimize dust and maintain the park’s tranquility. Campfires are not allowed on the ground; please use your barbecue or an appropriate fire container. • Reservations: Reserve ahead during winter months as we often fill up. Large RVs should plan carefully as sites are limited. Smaller rigs, please select an appropriately sized site to help us accommodate everyone. For reservations, use the website, not the app (it doesn’t always show specific sites). Need help? Reach me on-site or call the office weekdays at (520) 866-6920. • Amenities in the Park: • A large, fenced area for off-leash dog exercise. • Shaded picnic tables and clean port-a-jons. • Nearby Amenities: • Gas Station/Showers: Less than a mile west at the I-8/84 interchange. • Dump & Fill: Wild West RV Park (4 miles east) offers self-serve for $20. • Stay Limits: Maximum 14-day stay. After that, you must leave for seven days before returning. • Nearby Services: • Stanfield (10 miles east): Dollar store, El Rancho market and restaurant (highly recommended), laundromat, post office, and Circle K. • Maricopa (20 minutes north) or Casa Grande (30 minutes east): Larger stores and provisions. • Local Highlights: • Dwarf Car Museum (5 miles north): Ernie’s handcrafted, ¾-scale classic cars are a must-see. Open daily, 9–4. • Rooster Cogburn’s Ostrich Ranch (Picacho Peak): One of my favorite spots for an inexpensive, fun day! Feed a variety of fascinating animals and enjoy the unique experience.

Wherever your journey takes you, may you be blessed and happy. 🙏💕✨
