    Mesa-Apache Junction KOA

    All the features of a hotel

    This KOA had some really awesome features and gives you most of the convenience of a hotel with the ability to bring your RV and your personal items with you without the hotel price tag. The KOA features a year round heated pool and jacuzzi. The pool area was fenced and had some chairs, tables, and what appeared to be covered grills. The pool is right outside the office building which also has bathrooms and a small convenience store. If they don't have what you are looking for the is a major grocery store about 2 miles away. This KOA is in town. Don't come here if you're looking for a remote destination. The other side of the exterior fence has houses and businesses.

    Each site has a picnic table and some had a stand up bbq pit. The spaces are really close together and separated by a row of rocks. Up front they have 4 little single room cabins that say there can sleep 6 but have no bathrooms. There are some upgraded RV spaces that have outside grill areas with sinks and counter space.

    The spaces have very little shade if any! Be very aware of the weather when you visit. It'll be hot during the day and very cold at night depending on the time of year. You will be randomly assigned a space unless you pay the fee to have an assigned space.

    The KOA features a small fenced playground with a tetherball, swing set, merry go round, and a table with an umbrella. On the other side of the KOA there is a small fenced dog run. I also saw a stand alone sink near one of the loops. There is an activity center if you're hosting a group event. It had a few standing bbq pits outside. At the entrance was an air pump for filling tires.

    Encore Mesa Spirit

    Great value as a TT member

    We stayed at this property from 12/28/2020 - 01/11/2020.  This was our first experience with a TT/Encore property.  The RV site we were assigned has a rock pad, was moderately spacious, level, in full sun, and a fire ring or picnic table was not provided.  There was a pool, hot tub, lodge, pickleball, mini golf, shuffleboard, dog park, laundry and a fitness center on the grounds.  The nearest grocery store was within 5 miles as well.

    Picacho-Tucson NW KOA

    Great hosts - nice level sites

    The Picacho/Tucson NW KOA was the first place we camped at when we purchased our Bunkhouse motorcycle tent trailer.  We wanted to stay close to home in case something didn't work on our camper.

    The KOA is clean and the hosts were great.  The sites are well spaced but could be a little bigger for more privacy.  The sites are made of small gravel and very level.  No roots, rocks, stumps, etc.  There is a picnic table, water spigot, electrical hookup and BBQ grill at each site, in addition to a fire ring.  Bathrooms are clean and there is a small camp store.  There is a doggie run in the park as well as a pool and playground for the kids.

    When we stayed, the new hosts had just purchased the KOA a few months earlier and they were working on improving it.  We stayed there in late 2019 (before COVID).

    The only reason I gave this KOA 3 stars instead of 5 is because of the loud traffic noise from the freeway.  There is literally no peace or ability to sleep during the night (in a tent camper).  Perhaps in a solid sided RV, it would be great, but we didn't get a wink.  I even slept with earplugs in and I could still hear the noise.

    I will not be returning to this KOA, but sure wish I could because it was really nice and clean.

    Lost Dutchman State Park Campground

    Large sites, great view of the Superstition Mountains

    Camped here for two nights and enjoyed it very much. Sites are large and well maintained. We opted for a site with electrical and water ($30 vs $20) so there were mostly RVs. Large pull through with fire pit and bbq grill and metal picnic table. Many have views of the Superstition Mountains. We reserved ahead of time which is good as the campground was full when we arrived. There is overflow camping if no sites available. Bathrooms were clean and one had showers and filtered water, a nice bonus. I only saw two bathrooms (there might have been another in the newer loop but we didn’t explore that) so they were not real close to our site. Several hiking trails directly accessible from the park. A variety of ranger led programs but unfortunately none during our stay. You do have to put up with the annoying train whistle from about 10-6 from nearby Goldsfield “Ghost town” but otherwise it is probably the quietest campground I’ve ever stayed at. Only issue we had was with over-eager volunteers who yelled at us and told us we couldn’t park outside the showers. (We had moved from our site to use the showers after our hike and before leaving).

    Lost Dutchman State Park Campground

    Close to the city, deep in the wilderness

    Reservations are necessary, as many people grab these spots, and often for long stays (14 day maximums). Due to extreme heat, I recommend visiting in the fall. Winter, spring, and summer can tend to very uncomfortable.

    Loved the variety of hikes here, anything from easy to medium-difficult. The individual sites are pretty small and hard to put a tent anywhere but the paved drives into each nook, much of the ground is covered in small plants and cacti. There's a picnic table/bench thing at each spot, plus a fire pit grill (which is the only place you can burn). Bathrooms and showers are on site and worked great during our stay. Bring plenty of water to hydrate with!

    Lost Dutchman State Park Campground

    Great winter camping

    Campsite 36

    Spent the night close to home as my dog had never been camping and I wanted to see if he liked it (he does!).

    Booked online about two weeks prior for a Monday night stay and most of the campground was available. When I arrived about 75-80% was full, so good idea to book ahead.

    Some of the sites are super close together, especially on the newer loops (sites 75-104 and 106-134). They'd be ok with a trailer, but I'd feel cramped in with my tent. The main part of the campground where I was is a bit more spread out, with vegetation between most of the sites.

    My site had a big pad for the tent that was raked, a picnic table, a fire ring/grill, easy access to the hiking trails, and a great view of the mountains.

    Beware during the winter as the wind can come up during the night and morning hours, so stake your tent down well. It got up to maybe 15 mph, so not super strong, but typical for the edges of the valley.

    Staff was friendly, and the bathroom was clean. I didn't use the shower.

    One specific note about my site 36: don't book it if you'll be taking a 5th wheel or really any trailer. The access road is narrow and the parking spot is at a 90° angle so it'd be very difficult to back into. Better to pick one of the pull thru spots. If you have a campervan or are tent camping then it's a great spot.

    I'm glad I came here. Can't wait to come back! This would be an epic place during a full moon, or really anytime it's clear to see the stars. Too bad it was cloudy my entire stay.

    Lost Dutchman State Park Campground

    Campsite is at the foot of the Superstitious Mountains

    Lost Dutchman is a beautiful campsite however the sites are a little closer than what we prefer. We were in site 98 which was right in front of the Superstitious Mountains with no obstructions. The site was a pull thru but was barely long enough for our Toyota Tundra max cab and 20-foot trailer. A picnic table, fire ring and a couple of camp chairs is about all that fits at this site. If you want your trailer door to be lined up with the table, it will require you to pull the trailer through and park your tow vehicle behind it. Firewood can be purchased for$8 cash from the ranger station and ice for$6. If you want to use the well-maintained bathrooms or showers don’t stay in the 75-104 loop since the bathrooms are almost a half mile away via a trail that I would not recommend without closed toe shoes. We saw Quail and tarantulas on the trail. Although there were multiple signs to beware of rattle snakes we did not run into any. There was also a dog park near the main restrooms and showers. There is a dump station on your way out of the park that was easy to access. Goldfield Ghost Town just down the road, although a tourist trap it is a must see. There are multiple gift stores, a restaurant as well as a hamburger/ice cream stand and bakery, a train ride and Mine tours. Just a little farther down the road is the Superstition Mountain Lost Dutchman Museum which is more than just a museum full of old artifacts. There is a great gift shop and 15 acres of mining artifacts, artwork and a movie site Chaple used in a 1968 western called Charro which started Elvis Presley as well as the Apacheland Movie Barn used in multiple westerns. They even have a working 1914 Stamp ore mill which was used to crush boulders that had small pieces of gold within them. When enjoyed our two-night stay at Lost Dutch and spending the day learning about the history of this little community.

    Lost Dutchman State Park Campground

    Beautiful Views

    Beautiful views here, they have both water/electric sites plus dry campsites, all have views with picnic tables and fire ring grill grate. It had been 110 days since rain when we first arrived, so no fires first couple days, but they got rain yesterday 12/10/20 so we can have fires again. This is desert camping, the birds and everything in desert is happy about the rain. Goldfield old mining town is across the street, worth a visit as well for old western town lovers 1883 I believe. Route 88 will carry you through beautiful curvy mountain road over to canyon lake and Tortilla flats, well worth the drive. Lots of hiking from Lost Dutchman State Park. We have seen rabbits, roadrunners, doves, quail and a number other birds, early morning and evening hikes you will see plenty of creatures feeding off the desert. The Saguro cactus are incredible.

    Apache Lake Marina & Resort

    Loosely named a "Resort"

    This place is not the type of resort you "girl's trip" to. It's the kind of resort where you plan to spend all day on the lake and come back to a shower and a real bed. You can choose to camp in your tent/RV or start in the motel.

    The resort offers:

    • breakfast, lunch and dinner
    • watercraft rentals
    • two boat ramps
    • convenience store

    There is a $10 fee to use any of their land. Even if you're just launching your boat. Emergency personnel have a base on the property which is comforting. Cell service is scarce on the lake but works great close to the resort. Only gave the resort 4 stars because I prefer camping around less people.


Guide to Queen Creek

Cabin accommodations near Queen Creek, Arizona occupy sites nestled between Phoenix's eastern suburbs and the Superstition Mountains. Winter temperatures average 65-70°F during daytime, making November through April prime cabin rental season. Most cabin locations remain open year-round but require advance reservations during peak winter months when temperatures are mild and hiking conditions ideal.

What to do

Hiking opportunities: Near Lost Dutchman State Park Campground, cabin guests find exceptional trail access to the Superstition Mountains. "Heard some coyotes in the night, which was exciting. Enjoyed hiking the trails and exploring the landscape," notes Rebecca G., highlighting the natural wildlife encounters possible during overnight stays.

Lake access: Cabin accommodations provide convenient bases for exploring nearby water recreation. "Perfect for just getting away for the weekend. Only a 45 minute drive from the house, yet far enough that you still feel like you got away...Ghost Town, good views," shares Chad E. about Lost Dutchman State Park, which offers proximity to Canyon Lake.

Local farm experiences: The Cozy Peach at Schnepf Farms combines cabin stays with agricultural tourism. "We were here for a local event so we were able to do some nearby hiking and drinking at the incredible local Olive Mill across the road," explains Hayley K., pointing out additional activities beyond the farm itself.

What campers like

Mountain views: Cabins in the area often feature scenic vistas of surrounding mountains. "Highly recommend this park with spacious sites and great views of the Superstition Mountains and night lights of Phoenix," writes Terri D. about her cabin experience at Lost Dutchman State Park.

Year-round accessibility: Mesa-Apache Junction KOA provides cabin options regardless of season. "We stayed a couple of nights while visiting family and friends in the area. Gave us a chance to refill water and propane, take some long hot showers and generally recharge before heading back out on the road," Teresa A. explains about the KOA's appeal as a basecamp.

Pool amenities: Many cabin locations feature swimming facilities, particularly valuable during warmer months. "You wouldn't know it on your drive from the freeway to this KOA, but it's a pleasant, well-run RV/Cabin/Tent campsite. The sites are spacious, hosts friendly and informative. There's a pool and jacuzzi," notes Grace D.

What you should know

Site selection considerations: When booking cabin accommodations, carefully research bathroom proximity. "Carefully review the site you select to be sure it will accommodate your rig. Roads are narrow and there are unforgiving drop offs on the sides," warns Terri D. about Lost Dutchman.

Noise levels: Some cabin locations experience evening noise. "Camped here with my family. The scenery was beautiful, but didn't love the fact that people were blaring their music here until 2AM in the morning," cautions Brandon M. about his Lost Dutchman experience.

Winter reservations: Mesa Gardens RV Park and similar cabin providers often fill quickly during peak months. "Great campground centrally located to Phoenix and Scottsdale. Was only planning to stay 2 nights but ended up extending my stay. Have weekly and monthly rates on top of nightly ones," advises Jules S.

Tips for camping with families

Check age restrictions: Not all cabin facilities welcome children. "I did not stay here because this is a 55 and older community. Seems strange to have it on an app like this. I am writing this review so others can see that this is a community for retirees," warns Nathan B. about Sun Life RV Resort.

Look for playgrounds: Carefree Manor offers family-friendly cabin options with recreational facilities. "There are parks or playgrounds for the little ones, the area was peaceful and clean, the cabins are clean and affordable, and it had the perfect amount of woods & wildlife," shares Tanya N.

Consider wildlife viewing: Some cabin locations provide opportunities for wildlife observation. "A family of dear would come to our cabin and graze each morning as I sat on my cabin porch with a cup of coffee," notes a Carefree Manor visitor, highlighting these natural encounters.

Tips from RVers

Extended stay options: Many cabin rentals near Queen Creek offer weekly and monthly rates for longer visits. "I stayed here for 3 weeks. Starting in March. This park has full hookups, Wi-Fi, and super sweet people everyone chatting and enjoying life," reports Allen O. about Carefree Manor.

Bathroom access: Cabin facilities vary significantly regarding bathroom proximity. "Clean bathrooms, though a tad dated. Quiet. Standard KOA amenities of pool, hot tub, playground, and dog park," notes Kim G. about Mesa-Apache Junction KOA cabins.

Offseason advantages: Campground USA and other facilities offer reduced rates and availability during summer months. "Newer park very clean and secure heated pool with a Jacuzzi Pickleball courts and clean bathrooms with showers. We enjoyed our stay," writes Bob P. about the amenities available year-round.
