Tucson Retreat!

21 ft travel trailer ·

RV or Tent campsite near Saguaro NP

This was a pleasant retreat for those of us who are not fans of RV parks. Only a few miles from Saguaro National Park & the Sonoran Desert Museum. We visited & loved both. Beautiful sunsets. There has been alot of thought put into this property and it works. Outdoor showers, toilet, dish cleaning station, grills, friendly goats, chickens, tortoises, & dog. Our host is friendly, kind & very responsive. Close to Tucson, but out far enough to feel like you are out in the country. Perfect for us. We stayed for several days while exploring the area & would highly recommend it.

RV or Tent campsite near Saguaro NP

This was a great spot that offered more than a typical dry camp spot - the outdoor bathroom with plumbed toilet, shower, and sink were appreciated. Host was kind. Goats were amusing. Great location in terms of proximity to Saguaro West. It’s about an hour drive across Tucson to Saguaro East. But honestly we liked the west better and Rincon Mt. state park is close by. Only downside for us was noise. The area is rural but there are neighbors in earshot and we had to use earplugs and white noise to drown out a neighbor’s music one night. Other night was coyotes and neighbor dogs. And the on-site and neighbors’ roosters will let you know when morning has arrived!

This was my second time staying at Rancho Relaxo, I’ve found it to be a really good spot to use as a home base in while in Tucson. Claire is a great and considerate host, and I was able to enjoy some fresh eggs from her backyard flock!

BEST site! Stay long!

RV or Tent campsite near Saguaro NP

Best spot we've stayed in so far! The outside sink and faucet, the gas grill, chaise lounge, picnic table...all right there in your spot! The outside shower and bathroom is so nice and clean...there are 3 sites on Claire's property, and they were all filled, yet, it was still very private, even sharing the outside shower/bathroom,...Claire was awesome and we will definitely be back!! Also the Suguaro National Park is breathtakingly beautiful. We hiked the 3.4 mile up the mountain and also the 4.3 hike. Definitely recommend the 3.4 hike...it's the only 3.4 hike in the brochure at the Visitors Center.

Private campsite Near Saguaro NP

Great spot! Loved the shower and animals! Multiple sites but my location felt plenty secluded from the other camper on site.
