"Lots of hiking trails available. Since it’s a wilderness area, they are all pet friendly. It is the perfect getaway from Tucson.
The Ranger and camp host we meet were super friendly!"
"Driving in you get a beautiful view of Mount Wrightson."
"A couple times while here in January we had hunters or trail riders with their horses park in our group site for a few hours, but they were always polite and we are in a group site so it’s fair game to"
"You’ll see a forest fire prevention sign at the entrance. 4x4 only no trailers. 3 or 4 dispersed sites. Beautiful hike up 4x4 road. Border patrol active. Close to Arizona’s trail trailhead."
$25 - $30 / night
"This property is ON the Arizona trail, so it's the perfect place to rest your head after a day of exploring. Check them out and leave them some love!"
"Astral even recommended an amazing wild camp spot for our following evening, near the border. That evening, Mary made us a delicious dinner that nurtured our bodies, minds and souls."
"It was only 10 minutes away from Patagonia and it had lots of dry firewood. The downside is there is no water source and also road noise."
"Great space to walk the dogs around here. It’s gets a little windy at times and the cows can make a racket every so often, but we really like it here."
"There is no highway noise and the night time stars are brilliant. It is free range for cattle so you may wake up several mornings to see them in 'your backyard'."
"The moderately difficult access limits to trucks with off road trailers mostly."
"There is an upper lot that you can camp at with fire rings and mediocre lake views."
TravelerOff the beaten trail a bit but we really enjoyed our stay here. Hiking trail entrances right in the park and it’s close to the San Pedro river.
There is a laundry/mail room with a restroom and then a separate bathhouse near the front. Nice little dog park for our pooch to run around too and we used the public firepit.
Kiddos said there were horseshoes to play.
ScoutPlenty of space, the best dog parks ever!
GuideSo friendly! Nice dog park, good wifi, activities like potlucks and poker. Would definitely come back.
GuideClean, easy to locate, and great for the price! Laundry, bathroom, and showers. Easy to maneuver our 34 footer here. There’s a little dog park area and two dumpsters!
GuideVery nice RV park. Clean and safe. Solar shades provide Clean power to park. Large and shaded dog park area for the fur babies.
TravelerMet some friends here. We had a fire in the fire pit and hiked around. Dog park was nice and the bath house had clean showers and facilities. WiFi was free and good. Site was clean, level and pull through.
Rangerfor a koa this place was surprisingly clean, I have two dogs, but this koa had a dog park that i was able to take them to in order to get all of their energy out before the long car trip. I would probably stay here again
GuideWe spent 4 months here over the winter months. Big spacious pull thru spots and very clean and well maintained. Clubhouse and pool were closed due to Covid over reaction, and the price was still the same without those amenities.
Park is out away from civilization, with a lot of hiking /biking trails. Laundry was acceptable but not exceptional. Several machines were out of order at any given time. At the end of the winter the work campers that did such a great job all left to go north and the services all but disappeared. The park almost completely emptied out by the 1st of May.
There was a nice little dog park that that actually had some nice grass that our dog definitely enjoyed.
The water pressure on the West end of the park was terrible at times but over all a great place to spend the winter.
LegendThis is the best place I've stayed at of its type and size. Definitely handles over 200 rigs, has nice bathhouse, very clean, laundry, dog park, etc. And the price is totally fair! Just under $14 a night. So many of the big gravel lot places way over charge - fifty bucks a night is ridiculous for basically linking up rvs in a gravel lot. Quail Ridge has a fair price for the stay. Quiet and clean, super helpful staff.
