ScoutIt’s a crying shame when you live in this so called resort and watch prostitutes walk up and down your street and use the bathroom that is supposed to be for the residents. Management needs to get their but in gear and stop this nonsense. Stop this shit from happening to our park.
ScoutGood rate for a KOA, hot tub was a huge perk, and right off the highway! Great spot.
TravelerBeautiful area with hiking trails right off the RV area. Electric and water only.
ScoutNice campground not too far from the newest National Park! Really friendly people and hookups look all new. Glad we found them vs staying right off I10. Clean, friendly, and reasonably priced level sites.
GuideFor a season I snowbirded there. The amenities are decent, and some activities are notable.
Three staff did not communicate well, and one should be at ADX*, not in hospitality.
If I ever return, I hope the bad staff are gone.

ScoutVery nice level sites, quiet. Cave tour very interesting and worth the stop.
TravelerWe were the only ones in mid-October and it was awesome. Camped 1 night after a late afternoon cave tour, which was well worth it. The camp scenery is really nice, it was beautiful to look up the hillside and see all the Saguaros. No bugs.
LegendGreat spot to charge up.
GuideThis is a dry camping spot two blocks from the main street of Old tombstone. Pretty empty now but has rodeos almost every weekend and it can get quite full. $10 a night generators allowed dogs allowed. All in all a great spot close to attractions

Pandemic-related closures: Some facilities remain closed at certain parks. "Showers and pool are closed indefinitely. We had reservations here for a month, but canceled because their showers are not working and we didn't want to spend a month without a shower," warns a visitor about Tombstone Territories RV Park.
Overnight parking options: For quick stays in Tombstone, consider budget alternatives. "Pulled in for the night during a cross country trip. It's exactly as it's explained. Quiet, easy to find, dark. $5 per vehicle and $10 per trailer," describes a camper at Shootout Arena RV Park.
