Best Campgrounds near Lukeville, AZ

Nice paved road to the campground. The camping area is next to a day use picnic area. The camping area is disbursed around an unmaintained bathroom. No TP and no locks on the doors. Kind of creepy.

The campsites are well disbursed creating modest privacy. There was a minimal amount of traffic.

Overall the evening was very quiet. There was a double sonic boom heard in the morning. We attributed that to the nearby military base.

Nothing special about this vampground unless you can secure one of the canopies with a picnic table.

Quiet, peaceful and majestic. The sky at night is so full of stars. The cacti are taller than my rig. There are many hiking trails. The rangers have lots of educational opportunities. There is no electric but you can use your generator during specific hours. There are water spigots throughout the park however there's only a fresh water threaded water hookup at the RV dump station. My cell signal was minimal, I was roaming off Mexican cell towers however I did have calling via satellite. I was able to use solar and generator power. Definitely a place I'd return to, I'd love to explore here more.

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

Astonishing place in magnificent landscape! Plenty of sites, spacious and large distance to neighbors. Only a handful of other campers. Absolutely clean and easy to access with and car/van

I love how out of the way this campground is and how small. The sites are kind of close together but there are shrubs so it’s mostly private.

I have SOS service on my phone.

Make your reservations before you get to the park. Unlike me. I was lucky to snag my spot.

Beautiful area, great spot to enjoy the desert.

Anyone looking for a drone?

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,

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.

Small CG, only 4 sites. No RVs, TTs allowed. Vault toilet, trash bins, but no water and no cell signal. 3 miles of graded gravel road from hwy. $16/$8 senior. Need to pay at visitor center or online but with no cell signal... Guess a good spot for a Starlink neighbor! Sites are close together in a tight circle... Limited privacy.

Camping area next to a big picnic area shelter. The original poster had pin at the ajo county dump which maybe is not far off in spirit! Note you need a permit to camp here...but guess you have to call the park folks. Cost and camping stay limit not clear on signs but office noted camping permit is free at office and camping limit is 14d but flexible.... Sign notes no alcohol.

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.

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.

We stayed in a 40' motorhome for a couple of nights. Easy access even for bigger rigs. Huge spaces to find a spot. The area was pretty clean - only one trashy-looking camper. No amenities at all! Short drive into town for gas, food, and restaurant. Verizon & T-mobile worked great.

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.

Clean, quiet and very easy to pull your camper in/out. excellent hiking nearby and surrounded by pristine desert.

Stayed a couple of nights 

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.

Quiet besides the main highway traffic. You can go further back away from the road. Would come back.

Spacious galore! Wonderful! Easy to find, and can park right off the road if desired! Lovely cactus… all around! What a blessing!

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.
