We are finishing our third winter here at Picacho Peak RV Resort. We own a park model and a fifth wheel and spend 7 months here. This park is very clean and offers alot of activities for the residents. The manager and staff are very professional and very kind. The park is always improving and the owners are always putting money back into the park.The rates are very affordable and sites are big. We camped here in a Campground Cabin.

We have been visiting this resort on and off for over 10 years and have never found it to be less than spotlessly clean and well maintained. While it is an older park, the management and maintenance personnel do an excellent job of updating and making repairs. The office personnel always seem to be upbeat and genuinely glad to have you stay with them. We always visit during the Winter months so there are always a full calendar of activities going on. Our only complaints are about things the resort has no control over, such as the highway noise and the construction going on when we were there this year. But even that they tried to mitigate by telling us about it when we called to make our reservations. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Passport America rate. Still a nice little park. Looks clean. Didn't use any facilities. Road noise and construction at the entrance. Desk staff could have been a little more help. Ask for a table and was told to get it myself. Wi-Fi worked for email but not for internet explorer?? Makes for a great stop for the night..... We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great Park with lots of activities for it's guests. Very clean bathroom facilities, laundry, pool area etc. Great view of Picacho Peak right behind us! Staff and guests very friendly. Will definitely return! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice location with Picacho Peak in the background. Freeway close by so expect some traffic noise. WIFI wasn't working at the time. Lot of long term residents. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park has a great group of employees and campers. It is clean and well run. They have many activites to join etc. The negative comments are that the water is horrible, the WiFI that you pay for is a very poor value. You are only allowed 48 mb of download in 24 hours! The road noise is constant, and even though the trains are way across the busy highway, they travel at 60 mph and come past about every half hour! There are no whistle stops, but they were working on the tracks while we were there, so they do blow the whistle to warn the workers. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stay here for a month or two almost every winter. The freeway does not bother us.Staff is very friendly. Bathrooms are always clean. The pool and hot tub are in good condition. They do have a problem with the water, they have a reverse osmosis machine at office complex. We love going for walks in the desert with our dog.We find it very peaceful, other than the freeway.Oh yes, there is an Ostrich Farm next door. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

My husband and I stayed here from Oct. 2006 until Feb. 2007. It is clean and well-cared for with level pea gravel sites, each with a concrete patio and a table. Streets are blacktop. The view of the peak is lovely, as are the various types of cacti growing in landscaped areas. Finches and hummingbirds have been here all winter. The "cons" might be a lack of religious services in the park and the absence of personal interest in the residents on the part of management. (Management showed no interest when two ambulances came to a site late at night. They did not know--or seem to care--what had happened to the resident.) Also, while there are many activities scheduled, participation lags. Crafts activities are not planned in advance, but posted on a board a day or two before the activity. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Where do I start? Upon check-in was informed that the water is no longer drinkable nor to be used in cooking??? This park is beginning to show its age and in need of some maintenance. Don't think there is a level site in the park. The wifi is thru a pay service called RVLogon which for $6 a day is almost worthless and slower than slow! Now if that is not enough the I-10 freeway noise is totally unbearable as you might as well park on the shoulder of the freeway, you are that close. Anybody that thinks this park is a 10 must be deaf! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Great park with spectacular views of (and easy access to hiking in) Picacho Peak. Had a really nice, very wide, pull-through site that afforded us a daily view of the peak right out our windshield. The staff were very helpful and friendly, the park was very clean and neat, and we truly enjoyed our stay. The only item to knock them for is being a bit close to Interstate 10. You can hear the highway, but it was not overly loud. We camped here in a Motorhome.

First impressions might be negative but this is a great park. The only negative is the traffic and airplane/helo noise. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a lovely park with a nice rec area, pool, computer modem hookups, pleasant managers, etc. in a beautiful area. It has everything one could want and the price is right. Why the low rating? Because of noise from I-10. We were given a site that backed up to the freeway and we did not sleep a wink as semis and traffic zoomed by all night long. Our RV literally shook and vibrated from the racket. We left the next morning. If you stay here, be sure to ask for a site in the back. We won't return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a very interesting park, considering it is next to Picacho Peak (a national monument) and approximately half way between Tucson and Phoenix, and only a short distance to Casa Grande and the old Casa Grande ruins. We stay there every chance we get. Hospitable managers as well as lots of activities during the winter months. Intend to visit this year as well (2004). We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice. We camped here in a Motorhome.

What a lovely RV park! It is billed as a resort and it really is. We stopped there in November of 2001. Had no prior knowledge of the park, just needed to stop somewhere for the night. I'm sure it is a haven for snowbirds, but they hadn't arrived yet when we were there. The pool and hot tub area was immaculate. The food in the dining hall was absolutely outstanding. Their chef, Elesa (probably spelled her name wrong) would be worth following across the country. I want to go back there for the winter months. There is a lovely huge peak behind the park, makes the area more interesting. We thought it was a great park and plan to return. We camped here in a camper.

We met family here for a few days of camping before Christmas. We had a great time. The sunsets were beautiful and the weather was chilly but comfortable. The staff is very nice and the showers and restrooms were newly re-done. We will return many times I'm sure. I rated it an 8 because it doesn't have water hook-ups or sewer, but there is a free dump site. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We initially stayed at this park for an overnighter. We liked it so much we came back a week later, to stay for two more nights (We were originally going to stay in Phoenix but decided to stay here for those two additional nights). Sites are huge with lots of space in between. Views are good and park was clean and quiet. Water is available near the dump station. Restrooms where spotless and the showers had plenty of room and hot water. In addition to hiking we visited the near by ostrich farm and had a wonderful time feeding the animals and birds, well worth the $5.00 admission. The only reason I did not rate higher was because there was some road noise and a lot of train noise. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed here for 2 nites and really enjoyed this campground. There are several hikes to take in the park and the wildflowers were in bloom while we were here. No reservations, first come/first served but it was not full during our week stay. Roads are easy to manuver and sites are well laid out. The restrooms/showers were spotless and I did not use the shower in our coach for the first time in over 3 years!! Not much else to do in the area - campground is 20 miles from Casa Grande & 40 from Tucson. We would stay here again if we were passing through the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Wonderful little state park. Wildflowers blooming in early March and weather perfect. Dark, starry skies. This is better than being in Phoenix or Tucson. Verizon cell phone and EVDO plus TV reception was surprisingly clear and strong. Make time to linger and hike the trails. Dump station and water available. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Outstanding state park. We arrived in a 40' motorhome towing a Jeep and were able to easily find a pullthrough site so we didn't have to unhook. However, we wish we could have stayed for several days. Awesome views, clean park, interesting-looking hiking trails, birding, etc. Might be difficult for people with dogs. LOTS of prickery cactus (especially chollas that 'jump.'), but they do keep the campsites very clean of whatever they can. I'd highly recommend this as a stop for several days. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Camped here overnight as there was a toxic spill on I-10 that afternoon and the RV resort was evacuated for some time. The state park had plenty of sites and got one that was electrified. The scenery was stupendous. We could have easily spent a few more days here. The new bathroom/shower facility was the biggest and best I've ever seen for a campground. Spotless and very sanitary. We didn't experience any difficulty with noise as traffic was a mere crawl even late in the night. Good base camp with lots to do in the Tucson area. We'll definitely return. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a nice state park close to I-10. I was afraid that we would get freeway noise, but although the highway was visible from our site, we really couldn't hear it. The location is at the bottom of Picacho Peak which rises up dramatically from the desert floor. There is a small visitor center with friendly, efficient staff. There are nice trails from which to explore the desert and good bird watching. The campsites are well-spaced out,clean and level. It's a good place to layover if you are traveling I-10. Nice sunsets! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice campground up on a hill with views of the valley below. Great views at night of all the stars. Freeway noise was not a problem here as it is quite a ways back from the freeway. Lots of hiking trails. Bad water here also with signs warning of the nitrates in the water. Has nice dump station. Gets pretty busy starting in Oct-Nov as the weather cools off. Very large sites with lots of space between them. Would stay here again if in area. Has three loops with one loop for tenting or rv's with no hookups at all at $12 day. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We really liked this CG but can understand how others might not. It's only a mile off I-10 and slightly uphill from the freeway, so there is some road noise. It was so constant, though, that it was more like white noise. Unfortunately, however, immediately on the other side of I-10 is a set of double railroad tracks, and trains run pretty often. Apparently owing to atmospheric conditions or something, we didn't hear the trains at all for 4 nights but during part of the 5th night they sounded like they were within a hundred yards. Odd. CG roads and sites are paved, sites are very large and mostly level. This is in the desert, but the campground is right at the base of Picacho Peak, so there are lovely views. Hiking trails, group CG areas (a 12-site RV group area has electric and water), picnic and day use areas. Imagine summers are pretty toasty here, but in February it was gorgeous. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Picacho Peak is a nice little park. Too close to the highway, but a good overnighter. We went there for our second outing in our new trailer since it was close to home. Great hike up and around Picacho Peak. Huge pull-through RV space with no one even close to us. Bathrooms were fine. Not many businesses around the park, so make sure to bring enough supplies for meals. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
