    Tucson - Lazydays KOA

    Very nice facilities

    I stayed two nights with a Class B Van and the full hookup site was private, had a small grassy are, a picnic table and a portable fire pit. The common areas were very nice including the several gas firepits with chairs for just a couple or larger group. I was a little disappointed with the bathhouse/restroom, but that is because I am picky. The important thing is that I would definitely stay there again.

    Tucson - Lazydays KOA

    Not pretty but many amenities available

    General: Large KOA campground laid out in typical RV style with no privacy/separation between sites. There is every imaginable kind of site here from tent sites (with water and electric) to back-in sites with water and electric to FHU sites, some with covered sites to sites with private pet areas or play structures. There are also cabins sprinkled throughout. 

    Site Quality: Most sites are gravel; some have grass. All are level. Amenities vary per site. Ours had a round table with four chairs (in lieu of a picnic table) 

    Bath/Shower: In okay condition but then I saw a sign that they were scheduled to be remodeled a few months after our stay. 

    Activities: There are so many offerings including two pools, a hot tub, a fitness center, corn hole, putting green, basketball, and bike/surrey rentals. Also a daily “schedule of fun” with daily classes including Zumba and yoga, arts and crafts, bingo, etc. 

    Other amenities: On-site restaurant (delivery to your camper available), laundry, little lending library, pet wash.

    This campground is located in a less desirable part of Tucson with very few (if any) grocery stores, restaurants, etc. nearby. There is nothing scenic about the area and the campground is located on a busy street so you will hear road noise (and an occasional train). While we appreciated all the amenities, we prefer campgrounds with more privacy and scenery. This was a last-minute reservation when our plans changed and worked for an overnight stay.

    Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground

    The most comfortable campground so far

    Can't give this one high enough stars.

    We're van camping and working remotely, so our priorities are internet connectivity, electricity, and running water.

    The sites are all nice and flat, very well maintained, and pretty well spaced out. For the desert, there's surprisingly good vegetation between sites for privacy (but it is the desert).

    The bathrooms are plentiful, immaculate, and have hot water, showers, heated hand dryers, and a dish washing station... All open, even in the winter!

    Decent cell coverage on both verizon and t mobile, plus good free WiFi. Our site, in particular, had some issues with the different providers, depending on the direction of the wind, but I was able to work all day.

    Our only itty bitty gripe is that the fire rings did not have grills. But really, that's nothing.

    Would gladly stay again!

    Oh, and there's some pretty nice trails and caves, too. Make sure you reserve your tour well in advance

    Great Sky Views

    Great views of the sky at night and very quiet but we were never able to get in touch with anyone from the office. Nice spacious sites but the common areas really need some love. There’s no pool which is a must have in Arizona’s heat. Great Verizon cell signal no WiFi, or could never get in touch with anyone to get a code.

    Cleanest campsites ever!

    1-17-2021 site 33. Talk about clean! This is by far the cleanest campsite I have stayed at. The camp host are really nice and really do care about the camps. Nice and quiet at night. Electric and water at the sites. And some cool Arizona fire rings. We weren’t able to go into the caves because of our small child but there is a hiking trail which was nice. Great weekend getaway. Site 33 is right next to the cabins so are kinda close to there fire pits when relaxing but all the other sites look perfect.

    Tucson - Lazydays KOA

    Great Time!

    We just went camping here our first time last weekend and we had a great time! A very kid friendly campground, they had lots of things to keep you busy! 2 pools, a playground, game room, pickle ball courts, mini golf, RC car track, go-cart rentals, golf cart rentals, dog parks, activity’s for kids, you won’t be bored! Bathrooms/ showers were pretty clean and had a nice little store if you forgot stuff. 3 nice big propane fire pits by the entrance were perfect for roasting marshmallows. The BBQ Rush had great food if you don’t feel like cooking one night. Only $36 a night for a back in site with full hookups is a great deal! We had a blast and will definitely be back!

    Great State Park!

    We stayed at this State park on 12/27/2020.  We were not able to visit the caverns as all tickets had been sold when we arrived in the morning!  Plan ahead and purchase tickets in advance online.  The RV park was fantastic.  Our site was W/E with a dump on exit.  The site was level with a asphalt pad, some shade, a fire ring and picnic table was provided.  The bathrooms and showers were super clean as well.  There are hikes on the property that were well maintained as well.

    Kartchner Caverns State Park Campground

    Nice hike

    This is an open desert State Park campground with a fancy, cavernous registration center you have to park and walk a few hundred yards to enter. The gift shop was closed.

    The campsites are close together affording little privacy. Each has water and electric hookup, a picnic table and fire ring. The back in sites are paved and level. The bathrooms with showers were clean and well appointed.

    The Camp Host greeted me once I was settled. He Wanted me to be aware of the rules and regulations of the campground. Before he left, he asked me if I was traveling alone. The campground host circled the campground in his golf cart several times each day peering into each site on his way by. The only other campground I experienced his behavior was in Lost DutchmanState Park up near Apache Junction.

    I hiked the Foothills Loop which was challenging in spots especially around the apex. Walking sticks are recommended. The views were awesome.

    I’d give this four stars, but I don’t like feeling surveilled


Guide to Green Valley

Camping cabins near Green Valley, Arizona provide convenient access to the Santa Rita Mountains and Coronado National Forest. Located approximately 30 miles south of Tucson at elevations ranging from 2,900 to 4,600 feet, the region experiences milder summer temperatures than the lower desert. Winter cabin campers should prepare for overnight lows that can drop below freezing from November through February.

What to do

Birding excursions: Patagonia Lake State Park offers prime bird watching opportunities with over 300 species recorded. "Birder's paradise in April," notes one camper, who enjoyed canoeing on the lake and biking throughout the small campground.

Historic site exploration: Visit Kentucky Camp Cabin And Headquarters Building, a preserved mining camp from the early 1900s. The historic cabin rental sits on an old gold mining operation site and includes drinking water and electric hookups.

Trail riding: Rancho del Nido offers equestrian-friendly camping with trail access. "There were horse trails all around and you can bring your horses too. Dog friendly, and the owners were available if needed," explains a visitor who particularly recommended "Come for the stars, if nothing else."

What campers like

Vintage atmosphere: El Pais Motel and Campgrounds offers cabin options with a mid-century modern feel. "So retro," writes one visitor who found the place last minute, noting "the rates are very reasonable and the art deco vibes are more than enough reason to come back."

Communal amenities: Campers appreciate shared facilities that promote interaction. "Free chicken eggs from onsite chickens, communal fire pit every night, coffee every morning, free laundry & showers, pool and movies in the summer," lists a visitor who enjoyed the social aspects of El Pais.

Desert privacy: LS5 Ranch cabins provide a more secluded desert experience. One camper describes the site: "The host offered to help with anything we may have forgotten or needed. Great fires every night. Cool spot."

What you should know

Seasonal popularity: Winter sees the highest demand for cabins in the region. "We stayed here the month of Oct 2021 and came back for Jan 2022. Excellent 55+ resort," reports a visitor at Voyager RV Resort & Hotel.

Access considerations: Some cabin locations require navigating unpaved roads. "The access road from paved hwy was 7.9 miles of washboard sandy dusty dirt so be warned," notes one camper about Caballo Loco Ranch, adding "the 8 mi of dusty washboard sandy road makes quick trips to town uninviting."

Water restrictions: Many cabin areas have limited water resources. "Delicious well water," remarks a camper at Rancho del Nido, though water conservation is typically encouraged at most sites regardless of source.

Tips for camping with families

Activity options: Tucson - Lazydays KOA offers family-friendly cabin accommodations with numerous recreation options. "Your kids will never complain of boredom here. There is an unlimited amount of activities to keep them occupied," reports one family.

Temperature extremes: Plan for significant heat during summer months. "Went in July and it was 122 degrees," notes a visitor to Tucson Lazydays KOA who still rated their experience highly due to amenities like "Really good pool."

Wildlife awareness: Desert fauna includes rattlesnakes and large mammals. "We had a couple of cows and a bull at our site and scared the crap out of us and the dogs had a hard time sleeping," recounts a camper at Patagonia Lake State Park Boat-In Campsites.

Tips from RVers

Site selection: RVers with cabin needs should verify accommodations well in advance. "We booked last minute and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The campus seems nice enough, but has a few years on it and in a rough neighborhood," advises an RVer.

Laundry procedures: Some facilities use payment systems that require specific denominations. "We went to do some laundry and they have the system where you put money on a card, but can only use $5 bills," explains a visitor to Voyager RV Resort who recommended planning ahead.

Security considerations: Some cabin camping areas have implemented security measures due to location. "We often heard gunshots at night...It does have a security guard so we felt safe in the campground," reports a camper who still enjoyed their stay despite these concerns.
