Best Campgrounds near Pima, AZ

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.

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.

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.

Watch out for the cattle including bulls. They haven’t bothered me but just want to make sure you’re aware they’re around and could be in the road. It’s gorgeous out here and plenty of space if you keep going in. Some spots a little washed out or bumpy but the Skoolie got back here just fine so most big rigs should be good.

You can park very close to the rock formations here but I couldn’t find level ground ( bring some blocks). The road in is very wide and nice at first but gets pretty rough the farther you go plenty of spots. Alll in all a nice place.

Spent two nights here at the exact place where Google Maps says you have arrived. Very secluded and quiet!

Our site was pretty much a gravelly level area. We were just above the dam.

There is absolutely nothing at this site to create shade or a wind block. Fortunately we had only light breezes at dawn and dusk. It can feel really cold in the morning before the sun comes up even at 40.

Had the best time here definitely one for the books. The saloon is not only a bar but has ton of activities such as pool, corn hole, shuffle bored, line dancing, music and more.

$50 a night or $25 if you have the vine app $10 to dry camp out front. Huge space took our 40ft Rv 50 and 30amp hook ups. Some Grass area for dogs. Very friendly people here. Lots of fun.

I have been full timing in my 22 ft travel Trailer for 2.5 years.. this easily is one of my fav spots. Camping is $3a day near the hot wells but outside the recreation area, is all BLM camping. Hot wells right next to our spot were amazing. I just wish they were working all 24 hours a day. The wells are pumped by a solar pump so cloud coverage or night mean the solar pumps aren’t pumping. But they fill up about an hour after sunrise and about an hour after sunset it drains. We were the only ones there for 4 days. It was awesome

I tried to stay here, and they had openings, but I was in a Tesla and refused service. I have an adapter. Looked like a nice place, but couldn’t stay because of ignorance.

Not much for camping area, but it’s right on the creek and secluded and quiet. No toilets. No trash. Verizon in and out. 4x4 needed to exit. Road is a couple miles, rough, and one shallow water crossing.

This is an overlook of the Gila Valley with a wall to keep people from driving off. Verizon works. It dead ends just past the wall. You could camp here in an RTT. There is a place further down that has a couple dispersed areas by the creek. Marijilda Ranch Road. It’s rough but worth the run. Pictures in this review are of that area.

There are vault toilets there. There is a few places one could pull off for a quick sleep, but not a campground at all. Little further south are places in the trees further off the road on the right hand side .2 and .6 miles down.

The road in turns to dirt for a brief minute, then back to paved. It winds and there are some tight turns. You turn off the pavement to dirt the last 1/4 mile. Wouldn’t take anything over 35’ 5th wheel. $5/night is not bad to have vault toilets, water spigot, picnic tables, river close. Biking trails, horse trails, hike trails, OHV trails all close. There are corrals at the “Host” site. There is a boat ramp 2 miles before the campground. There is one farther up also. Not sure about at the campground. No Verizon signal here.

Was a little busy and the bulls can get aggressive in your campsite.

Very clean spacious well kept KOA. Cafe on site with nice staff and good food. The sites are super roomy. Staff is very friendly. I10 is noisy but really didn't mind that at all being tired from our travels. Fire pit and pool. Really nice place.

Friendly staff, level sites, clean and well laid out. Cafe has a full menu and it was clean and well run.

All the facilities are very clean. $3/night and you have two hot wells to soak in during the day. This is a recreational area for OHVs so expect to hear people having fun on the weekends.
