We're on a road trip in our motorcoach, and needed a place to stay close to Tombstone, Bisbee and Elgin wineries. Simply put, this place was nice! Paved driveways, clean dog parks, helpful staff, well-maintained, heated pool. It was quiet, other than the train passing through.

You need to stay just for the observatory! Super friendly staff, very nice sites, mix of paved and gravel sites, nice wide paved access roads. All 30/50amp FHU, some shade in most spots, too. Clean and very well maintained, and the staffs pride in the park shows. Good views of the mountains from most sites. They even let you wash your rig for a small fee.

Great cell and Starlink coverage, easy walk to the Safeway and Ace, but you wouldn't know they were there otherwise. Quiet park, quiet area. Easy access to Benson, which is worth checking out along with Tombstone, the Mexican border, Saguaro National Park, and Kartchner Caverns State Park.

A 5 star resort except for 2 minor things, the stupid train runs ALL the time, and the sites have a large curb from the road and are a BIT short for larger rigs, but otherwise an amazing RV park.

Awesome value and great place. Pool, spa, observatory, easy access, friendly staff and residents... this place has it all for a very reasonable price! We just stayed the night, but with all the features plus activities (yoga, pickleball, game night, etc) I can see why people would stay longer!

This is a high end RV park. There is no dirt anywhere, all the roads are black top as are all the RV sites. Concrete curbs and stones border all the blacktop. Easy access from I-10. They have pickleball, hot tub, swimming pool, laundry, everything neat and clean. They have an observatory you can schedule in the office to have a show with their 16 inch reflecting telescope. I’ve been stopping here for the last four years for a few days passing through and it always looks kind of new.

The rate is reasonable for their amenities and quality at about double the low end of a private RV park.

Tombstone is located about 45 minutes south and Cochise’s Stronghold is about an hour east. Tombstone is a full day with restaurants, shows, souvenirs, etc. The main tourist strip is closed to traffic re-creates an old time western town with the stagecoach, running up and down the street and gun fights breaking out on a pretty regular schedule. Cochise’s Stronghold is completely undeveloped. It’s a long, rough dirt road you can drive down and see magnificent scenery. Well worth the drive as long as you’re not expecting an amusement park or even a touristy national park.

We had a great time there. Everyone including the staff were very welcoming when we arrived a week ago. Initially we booked for 3 days but extended for a week stay. We met some wonderful folks and really felt "at home". The various activities were such that we wished we could have stayed longer. Hope to come against in the future. Thanks again!
