Best Tent Camping near Yuma, AZ

The first night they put us tent camping in an rv spot which was great. In the morning they said we had to pack up because somebody needed the spot. We moved to their "tent" section which was actually the walk way to the hot tub. Middle of the night drunk people walked right by our tent being super loud and woke us up. Can't blame them since the park had us put our tent in the walkway. Don't stay here!

$22/night, full hook up, pool, spa, 1 family bathroom (clean) laundry, we went into Yuma for this. Daisy is a lovely front woman. Not luxurious but great location to explore Yuma.

Easy to get to, very clean and friendly people. A great overnight stay when passing through Yuma.

We loved staying here! They are under new management and they do such an amazing job. This is a great spot away from town and kid friendly. (The only place we were able to find in Yuma to allow kids for more than 1 week.) There are so many fun things to do without leaving the park. Such as; nice and maintained heated pool, bocce ball, pickle ball court, playground, clubhouse with a pool table, card table, air hockey, gym equipment. They had things arriving weekly. They have activities like, karaoke, movie night, card games, and so much more they were planning. I have not been in a more caring great community. We will definitely stay again whenever we go to Yuma!

There isn’t much out here but it is close to Yuma if you have business or errands to run. There are lots of flat areas to park and space for large groups.

Staff are friendly and helpful. Park is fairly clean a couple of campers have what looks like a bunch of junk. Most are clean. Great access to of of Yuma area. For the money we are spending three months and are happy. Good base camp. There’s a very large sandy area next to camp ground to walk our dogs they love going to.

Park is currently near full with contractors working the border wall. Most are ok but there are some that are very discourteous, inconsiderate towards others. Management allows them to race up and down the roads with their dirt bikes and 4 wheelers.

Streets are pea gravel spread on top of what used to be pavement. Sites are soft sand and gravel that is not level or maintained by the park. Pool is old and in need or replacement and only receives maintenance once or twice a week at best.

Electric is metered @ $.20/kWh. Water is from a well and untreated,very hard and very salty you can wash with it but most get their drinking water from one of many “salt free” water dispensing station around Yuma.

I’ve lived here 2 years and have Seen both management and maintenance go down hill. The owner pays the place a visit once a year. This park for the price, compared to others in Yuma, is livable but is a bit outdated and run down.

This place is listed as “55 +” however the owner allows all the contractors as it provides him with income that he normally would not have during the non-snowbird season.

Ok park. Same as most in this area. Hundreds of miles of open land and they sites are as tight as could be. Nice people. Mostly full timers.

Well run park. Decent size sites. Hot tub, pool and laundry. Super clean showers, hot. Bake goods for sale daily.

We stayed one night. Really clean showers and pool. Shady spot was a bonus.

This is a “snowbird” park. The sites have both 30 & 50 amp service, water and sewage hookups, a laundry room, a pool with two large hot tubs, an activities hall, a games room with a poker table and half a dozen pool tables. We are parked up beside our family who stays at the park in the winter. This place was probably pretty amazing back in the day… sounds like it has new ownership, there are some restoration projects going on so hopefully it will get back to its former glory.

Apparently they have done lots of updating and things are looking better. They clearly have put some money into the place but staff is not taking care of it good enough. Bathrooms are new but are not cleaned well. New tile is stained already. Staff told us we had to buy a washcard, they just didn't know you can use that app only and recommended us drive down the road so we didn't have to buy a $10 card. The dryers count down weather you have the door open or closed. Pools are great and are popular. Lots of spaces available. In March. Mix match of mini homes and RVs. Pretty big place. They parked just near the entrance and it was very noisy with the freeway. If you can get in the back I'm sure it is much better. We also had a very strange sulfur smell at night, almost suffocating. It happened twice?

Their website is a bit misleading, it is not clear that the resort is open for members only. Not knowing that we called to make the reservation for 3 nights. When we arrived we were told that we should attend a 90 minute presentation. We attended the presentation, but we didn't buy the membership, so now we can't go there until we wait for 2 years and attend another 90 minutes presentation. Otherwise the resort is very nice, considering that it is in the middle of the desert. The staff is friendly and very helpful. The grounds are well kept, bathrooms are clean, there is a fenced area for doggies. If you have a fishing license, you can fish in the lake. They also organize all kind of community programs, bingo, pool games, live bands, etc, that we didn't attend, because of the pandemic. We enjoyed our stay there.

Seasonal full-time residents

This place is usually a stopping point for us and it's always very clean and quiet. The folks here are always very nice and helpful. The spots are big and level gravel. All hookups too.

We drove all the way to the top with a 4x4 & 5x8 cargo trailer. It was a nice stay You are next to power lines, but it’s a beautiful view Quite until the fighter jets fly over. You can see the city lights and nice little hikes

We tried stopping at pilot knob as there isn’t much else in the area. It’s pretty much that and a chevron gas station. Unfortunately, it is closed from April to October. Driving by, it looked pretty run down. All the sites are right next to each other.

This looks more like an rv park than a place where you could stop for a night or two.

It’s pretty much in the middle of nowhere. Not much to see here other than the beautiful sunset. We did se some other people setting up camp in a nearby parking lot. I’m assuming it is related to pilot knob as there is literally nothing else out there.
