THIS PARK IS CLOSED INDEFINITELY AS OF 1/21/2018 As of 1-21-2018, camping is not offered at Buckeye Hills Regional Park. The park will be undergoing a 'master plan' in the future review with camping options being included as an option.
There was no trailhead or trail near the park entry and seating rest area. There were plenty of spent bullet shells littering the ground however. Very disappointed.
Nice peaceful place with a good view of the surrounding landscape and multiple covered picnic areas and a few small grills to have a nice outdoor hangout. Bathrooms are there but its the basic porta potty park kind with no sink or soap to wash our hands with. They were stocked with toilet paper though.
Hopefully they open this developed picnic area to overnight camping in the near future, I'll give it 5 stars when they do. Located a few miles South of Robins Butte Wildlife Area when heading South on AZ85. Numerous sites with shaded tables, BBQ's, restrooms. There are a couple easy hikes up the hills to get a decent view of South Buckeye and the White Tank range. Only a few miles away from the Buckeye RV & Boat Storage makes it a convenient location for a quick day trip.
Be careful out here. Went on a jog and almost got snatched up. I saw I was being followed so I got off the road and on top of the hills to run back to my car.
