7. Twin Peaks Campground — Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument
36 Reviews•167 Photos•44 SavesOverview
Twin Peaks Campground is located within Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, in the heart of the Sonoran Desert along the United States border with Mexico. This landscape reveals a thriving community of plants, animals, and human stories that echo throughout this desert preserve, chronicling thousands of years of desert living. A scenic drive, a wilderness hike, or a night of camping will expose you to a flourishing, living desert.
Recreation
Along with photography and birding, hiking is ideal here. There is a 0.9 mile (1.4 km) perimeter trail around Twin Peaks Campground, and the 1.2 mile (2 km) Desert View Trail located near the group camping area. Beyond the campground area, miles of hiking trails lace Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, some easy, others more strenuous. Some of the best hiking is off the beaten trails out in the canyons with a map and compass to guide you. Always carry water and snacks, and avoid hiking during the hottest parts of the day. More detailed trail information is available in the park newspaper and in person at the Kris Eggle Visitor Center.
Natural Features
Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument exhibits an extraordinary collection of plants and animals of the Sonoran Desert. This is a showcase for creatures who have adapted themselves to the extreme temperatures, intense sunlight, and little rainfall that characterize this Southwest region. Thirty-one species of cacti have mastered the art of living in this place, including the park's namesake and the giant saguaro. Here, the life of the Sonoran Desert is protected and allowed to flourish under nearly ideal wilderness conditions. The monument is an outstanding natural preserve where one of the Earth's major ecosystems survives almost unspoiled.
Nearby Attractions
Lukeville Port of Entry to Mexico - approximately 5 miles (8km) to the south of the Kris Eggle Visitor Center and Twin Peaks Campground. Gas is available. Historic Ajo, AZ - approximately 33 miles (53 km) north of Twin Peaks Campground following SR 85. Gas, restaurants, shops, and groceries are available.

Desert Oasis
What a great find in this small desert town. The owner, Joyce, is amazing!! She let us know she wouldn't be on site when we arrived and communicated exactly where our site was, so we were pleasantly surprised when she greeted us and showed us to our spot before running out. She has a binder prepared with everything you need to know about the area, such as town history, things to do, and places to eat! The park has full and partial hook-ups. There is a fenced dog yard. It is a great place to stay while you're visiting the area.

Nice place to stay
Nice place, plenty of Sitzes, yet only few neighbors. Getting there is bumpy (unpaved road) but with any passenger car doable.

Twin Peaks Campground — Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument
Efficiently designed NPS campground
General: 208-site campground. No hookups but sections are separated into tent-only, generators allowed, and non-generator sites (which we were very happy to see!). Only four sites can accommodate RVs up to 45 feet; otherwise, there is a 40-foot limit.
Site Quality: All are level and have generous-sized concrete/macadam pads (except for the tent sites which are all gravel). Although the sites are close together, there is ample foliage separating them.
Bath/shower house: I never expect showers in National Park Service campgrounds so was pleasantly surprised to find showers here (in three of the restrooms). Otherwise, the restrooms were basic but clean.
Activities: There is a.9-mile perimeter trail that allows leashed pets and the 1.3-mile Palo Verde Trail that leads to the Visitor Center from the campground. The 21-mile one-way dirt Ajo Mountain Drive is considered the most scenic area of the park but trailers, buses, and RVs over 25 feet are not permitted on this road. There are a few short hikes off of this road. You can also drive a loop around the area, but four-wheel drive is recommended. The night sky is stunning here and there is a telescope pad. The hour-long evening ranger talk was both interesting and well-attended. The Visitor Center was also a wealth of information.
Note: As others have mentioned, when we arrived, we were instructed to leave our hoods up to discourage the pack rats. Not a problem and we didn't see any,

Big and tight!
Large CG but many sites are just jammed together. I had claustrophobia just driving thur a lane or two. Never seen such a nested tight cg like this. Went back out to free BLM dispersed where my nearest neighbor was 500 ft away.

Nice FHU spot near Organ Pipe Cactus NM
Nice little park in Why -- because why not? :) Nothing really in Why -- a gas station, convenience store and breakfast/lunch restaurant. But it's a short (and beautiful) drive to the national monument and Ajo, if you need groceries or other supplies. Simple gravel pull-throughs. Not sure how really big rigs would do, but my little Casita snuggled in just fine with a decent amount of room around. FHU and decent cell service. Paid $30/night in cash. Nice view of the sunset and starry skies.

Five stars, even after our truck burned down
Organ Pipe Cactus NM is a treasure, and for a couple of working full-timers, this campground was perfect.
We spent a long weekend here in site 24, which had a beautiful, unobstructed view of the sunset each night. Solar was ripping, even in February, and would be in any of the campsites. Nice picnic table and paved, level driveway made this feel a notch or two above most NPS sites. The dump station we only used once, but was looking brand new and worked perfectly.
Quirk: packrats are pretty rampant here, so folks keep their hoods open and anyone who spends more than a night or two lights their undercarriage to scare the little guys away.
The campground is ringed by trailheads. A couple of roads give plenty of space for cyclers. It's a beautiful, beautiful spot. You're pretty far from groceries, so you'll wanna stock up before you come in.

Great desert Campground
Fun campground with great desert flora and fauna! It’s a pretty big campground and the spaces are kind of close together so definitely not the most private of places. There are lots of restrooms with running and and some solar showers as well. Lots of trails to hike right of the campground as well! Overall a nice campground.

Beautiful area with showers
Semi private sites with cactus and other desert plants between sites. Quiet except for the guy next to me listening to audio books. Pull through concrete drives. Some of the restrooms have showers. Was very nice. Not hot but warm enough. Dogs allowed on some of the trails.

Clean and well equipped
What you would expect of a national park campground. Clean, well maintained easy access, and quite. Good hiking great for kids.
Cons sites are close together. Little privacy and limited shad.

Twin Peaks Campground — Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument
A disappointment- starting with the approach to the park
Get a full tank of gas before leaving Gila Bend !!!!
We had a good site looking south to the Sonoran Mountains and to the border area.
The facility is fine but the threat of packrats proved to be too much pressure; and, the lack of interpretive signage is a barrier to understanding this area.
Let's start with the rats--- the threat cannot be ignored-- or ignored at the peril of damage to your vehicle.
This area attracts hummingbirds.

Lots of space
Stayed here for a night in mid April 2022. I arrived around 5:30 PM and was able to get set up and collect enough wood for a fire. I found a level spot with an existing fire ring. There were a few other campers around but this place has a lot of space so I didn’t notice the neighbors. It was cloudy and a full moon but I could imagine the skies get super dark here. I would stay here again.

Beautiful and Clean Campground
We stayed 2 nights here and it was very beautiful. Sites are close together. Lots of trails off the campground. Wish there were more that allowed pets. Had a nice visitors center and a amphitheater with evening shows. Generator hours limited but it wasn’t too hot in beginning of April. Highly recommend.

Convenient location in the middle of the National Monument. Late Check-in was easy, camp hosts very nice and the restrooms clean and well kept.

Smaller, pull through sites
We spent six days here in early March. It was $10/night with our National Parks Pass. All sites have a picnic table and grill. No hook ups, but there is a dump station and water fill. There are trash receptacles throughout the campground and several restrooms, some with solar showers. The campground hosts do a great job keeping the campground spotless.
Several hiking trailheads are at the campground and get you up close with the desert landscape. Great place for stargazing. Seeing the border wall was interesting.

Nice place
Very busy but nice campground. Had some great hiking on the edge of the campground which was a plus.

This place is huge!!
Big open area with some shrubs, cacti and washes. There is LOTS is space here so plenty of room to spread out but bc of the low nature of most of the plants there isn’t a ton of privacy. You prob won’t be alone but you won’t need to be right next to someone either.
Mostly level area, great roads. Everyone around was quiet and respectful. Saw a few coyotes while we were here and heard them yipping throughout the night. Very peaceful and close to Organ Pipe National Monument.

We van camp so we got an RV spot. We put up a screen room and that was okay with rangers since it did not have a floor. You may need to clarify with park ranger. Our site did not have a tent pad. Very pretty with good bathroom locations.

All pull through, no hookups, great staff.
Wish there were more dog friendly trails, but that’s a park issue. Nice, level, paved , large sites. Generator area and hours. Neat visitor center within 1.5 walkable miles. Quiet, beautiful place. Be sure to take a drive😊

A Desert Wonderland
We pulled in on October 2nd. Thought we would stay a week but have been here for months now. Rates are so low that you might think it is too good to be true... but it's not. 2021-2022 rates are: $15 daily, $60 weekly, $175 monthly and after you stay for (3) months at the monthly rate, you can apply for the yearly rate at $635 annually. With over 200 acres, the sites are spacious and some even have water taps on them. December came into full swing with all kinds of activities & events: Pickleball, Hiking Groups, Creative Writing Groups, Crafter Meets, Evening Dances, Potlucks, Game Nights, and so much more. We have an enormous site with awesome neighbors. We're allowed one 8x10 storage shed now that we're approved to be annual guests. We love it here and plan to be here until mid June, returning late September. Lovely people, awesome location and boondocking just got easier.
