Dragoon is rich in history and natural beauty. The name comes from the 3rd U.S. Calvary Dragoons who battled the Chiricahua Apaches here led by Chief Cochise during the Apache Wars. Nearby, you can visit the confederate graves and ruins of the Dragoon Springs Stage Station. About 20 minutes away is Cochise Stronghold, home and burial place of Chief Cochise and Chiricahua Nat'l Monument is about an hour away (great hiking and climbing!).

Extremely friendly folks! Very cool concept and layout. There is a company next-door that gets to work pretty early, but that didn’t bother me because I’m an early riser. I just noticed it when I was leaving to go on an early hike. Community areas were kept impeccable. I car camp so the space allocated was perfect for me. I only used location as a base for a national Park visit, so I can’t really speak to the surrounding area too much more. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Michaelette and her husband Owen are The Best Hosts! Communication before we arrived was excellent. Michaelette and Owen welcomed us when we arrived and helped us back in our travel trailer on a paved pad beside their home. Power, water, sewer and wifi are all included at a very reasonable price. Michaelette gave us a prepared handout with recommended restaurants and places to see in the area, which was very helpful. Thanks so much for having us!
We very much enjoyed our stay and would definitely book this great location again if we return for a visit to Tucson.

Beautiful spot to camp in an amazing community. Our hosts and neighbors were all friendly, caring, and welcoming. The campsites were nice and tidy, the bathroom, shower, and laundry facilities were all in great shape. Patagonia is small, but the campsite is an easy walk to the main street. We only moved our vehicle once to start a bike route.
Highly recommend!!

We decided to take a last minute, camping trip with our daughter to see the Sandhill Cranes at Whitewater Draw over Christmas, and this was the perfect location. Harry and Barbara had family plans elsewhere, but they were great about communicating all that we needed to know to stay at their place. Our stay was peaceful and beautiful...just the dose of nature and animals that we all needed.
We walked the short trails around their property, and used their solo stove in the evenings to stay warm. The night sky is incredible, and their bird feeders make this a great birding spot. The cranes were not as plentiful as in past years, but a couple of surges in their comings and goings made it worthwhile.
This is a great spot for those needing some time away from the city and a dose of nature.

The pictures are beautiful and eye-catching, but they barely scratch the surface of the alternate universe you step into when you arrive at El Pais Motel and Campground. From the moment we pulled in, it felt like we were part of something special.
The drive-in movie night with popcorn, the food truck and snacks, on-site laundry, and the welcoming community space all made the stay incredibly comfortable and memorable. Add in the creativity woven throughout the property, and it easily became one of our favorite stays to date.
Huge thanks to Jade and Karl for creating such a fun, thoughtful, and unique experience. We will absolutely be back!!

An awesome desert site down a short "primitive" road a quarter mile from pavement. Wildlife, peaceful, horses, a resident hawk, perfect sunrises over the Chiricahua Mountains and beautiful sunsets behind the Huachuca Mountains.
Wonderful hosts, easy in and out. I have a 60 foot rig and it went in pretty well.
Saw a couple of big cats, quite a few deer, coyote scat, so they're around too. (Keep your small pets on lead.) Definitely would return.
Just an aside, it's just up the road from Johnny Ringo's grave site. What fun!

Oh my gosh, where can I even begin. Karla is such a sweetheart! I absolutely loved her place. We were a group of three that booked last minute for tent camping. She was there to greet us when we pulled in and gave us a quick tour. She has worked VERY hard to create a beautiful little ranch with her own hands. She is amazingly creative. Do check out the scrapbook she has made of what she has done over the few years she has owned the place. It is AMAZING. Extremely talented, hardworking, and creative. I cannot begin to fathom the amount of effort she has poured into her property. It really is mindblowing.
The bathroom was spotless, the tent shelter was extremely sturdy and well built, the grounds meticulously maintained. Again, she has built and maintained all of this herself.
Karla really spares absolutely NO effort or expense to make sure her campers are happy, safe, and comfortable. An absolutely wonderful lady with a calm, strong and sweet presence. Just a tremendous, tremendous amount of thought, care, and artistry throughout. Highly, highly highly recommend.
Thank you for hosting the Three Amigos, Karla. I hope we see you again.

Karla and the Hummingbird Ranch were absolutely the best! Not only is her spot fantastic, she is an absolute gem of a human being! The access to a toilet was pivotal at this point in our trip. She also rents her shower out, which was a huge draw for me. We stayed in her hand built cabana which was wonderful to set my tent up in and also be able to cook and hang out in. She has done a lot of work on her property and it is absolutely gorgeous. My favorite part of the day was sitting down at dusk watching all of her solar lights turn on. I would absolutely stay here again if I was ever in the area.

RV Ranch is located in a beautiful spot of Cochise County. Gorgeous view of Cochise Stronghold and surrounding ranges. It’s a working ranch so you’ll hear animal noises which added to the peace of the place for me. Full hookup, very level site made it a breeze to get settled quickly. I was so fortunate to witness the great crane migration during my stay. Thousands of them made their way to their winter home right overhead. Truly amazing. Highly recommend RV Ranch to anyone visiting this stunning area of AZ.
