We (Tim and Victoria) moved out to our place in the desert in February 2008 along with our many plants. We have continued to grow our little farm of 4 1/2 acres to what it is today, which includes an orchard with about 50 fruit and nut trees and enclosed garden/greenhouse structures with veggies and herbs that are protected from wildlife and the elements. We have a seasonally heated pool with 3/4 wraparound deck and amazing views of the Tucson Mountains. Our property in a 160-acre neighborhood surrounded by open desert state lands. In our sustainable community/neighborhood are like minded, peaceful people who are as connected to and respectful of the land as we are. We are looking forward to hosting Hipcampers and sharing our lovely slice of heaven.
Great little hideaway in the desert. It's like a little working orchard so there are more trees than in usual desert setting. It's rustic but that's part of the charm. Tim was a great host and answered any questions and concerns I had and was very patient in helping me park my camper! Shower house is odd but again also charming and it was clean and they have any bath items you could need to use. I loved having the fenced in area for my pup. It was mostly quiet. There was a bit of banging at night and loud arguments from someone I think lives there. Maybe they just had an off week? If I could change anything it would be the road in. It's only a mile long but you need to take a lot of caution getting there. The property itself is no problem to drive on. Overall... one of my better choices I would say and I would definitely stay again and recommend it!
We enjoyed camping at Tim and Victoria’s! They were extremely hospitable hosts. Their fresh peaches and apricots were yummy! We really appreciated all of the extras that made our stay smoother, from the well appointed bbq and camping supplies, to the out door sink and fresh well water. And the pool was perfect, as it was a hot weekend!
Tim and Victoria’s Hipcamp was a great experience for Junior and I. It was very clean and well appointed. They had many “extras” available around the site and the site itself had more than expected. Tim is very friends as he helps you to find your site when you arrive and is available to answer a questions about the camp, Tucson and surrounding area. We were visiting family and the drive into Tucson was easy and short. We’ll definitely stay here again the next time we come to the area.
I loved my stay at the Saguaro campsite! Tim was the absolute best, he was exceedingly kind, made sure I had everything I needed and gave great recommendations for the area! I woke up every morning to a stunning sunrise and the sounds of the desert. I stayed for a month in my little camper with my two cats and we were so at peace. We had all the amenities we needed and I loved using the outdoor shower. The trees in the orchard were beginning to blossom which was lovely as well. It’s also great that the campsite is fenced off, if you have pets they can hang out safely in there and it keeps the night wildlife out. You couldn’t ask for a better spot, just outside the hustle and bustle of Tucson but close enough to everything. West Saguaro National Park is just 15 minutes away, as is Tucson Mountain Park, and you are no more than an hour away from most other hiking (Sabino Canyon, Saguaro East, Catalina, etc…). Dirt roads to get there were easily navigable as well, and Time was always very responsive if I needed anything. 10/10 recommend and plan to come back next winter!
If you are looking for a place to camp that feels like home, welcomed by great hosts Tim and Victoria, who felt like family, this is the place! Their campsite is nestled in a rural area, located on 7 acres of a Moringa tree farm that has beautiful landscaping. Quiet, calm, serene. The camp site itself was spacious, and had every amenity that you could think of for tent camping. Bathhouse with hot water was so appreciated. Our hosts were very helpful during our stay. They were very communicative which helped us to have a great experience, as it was our first time camping in Arizona. It won’t be our last. We highly recommend the Saguaro national park close by, Richie’s café at the local airport, and the Brisbee breakfast club nearby. Thank you for hosting!
