Nice Park. Not much there, but location is excellent. Right on Allen Street where it is all happening. The spots can be narrow, but plenty of room lengthwise. The staff are very accommodating. Very laid back atmosphere. Great rates! We were very happy with our choice, Highly recommend!

We’ve stayed at a multitude of RV parks all over the states. We prefer boondocking as we have a fully self sufficient setup, but after staying for a night to take care of our weekly laundry duties, we extended a stay a few more nights. We enjoyed that so much that we decided to make it a whole month. Reasonably priced, especially with the good Sam discount. The staff and owners are all very friend...

Wow! What a great rv park! The office staff was friendly and helpful and organized. We stayed in site 3 (gravel) and our starlink had a great signal there. There was a picnic table at our site. The bath house had codes for the bathrooms and the showers worked great. The bath house looked a little dated inside; however, everything was extremely clean and everything worked.

There was a picnic table at our site. The bath house had codes for the bathrooms and the showers worked great. The bath house looked a little dated inside; however, everything was extremely clean and everything worked. We did not use the laundry rom or the pool, yet both looked very nice. The club house had a lot to offer, great if staying long term. The park is a short drive to the attractions in Tombstone. If we are ever in the area again, we would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay while visiting Tombstone. They have spacious enough sites with full hook ups. We really enjoyed the heated pool and friendly people. It is located just a couple minutes from town and was nice and quiet at night. We would definitely stay here again.

Great RV park. Very clean, level sites on gravel. There are two large dog areas. The park is very quiet and offers nice facilities to include a swimming pool and laundry. Very close to all the tourist attractions in Tombstone.
