When my husband and I were dating in NY we confessed our mutual desire to get back "home" to the west. It made me fall in love with him even faster. So when we married we moved to Washington DC knowing that in time we would make it west. 5 years later, when the traffic and the politics has taken its toll, we made a trip to Tucson and fell in love with this charming property that exudes all the beauty and grace of the Sonoran Desert. We looked at each other as we walked around looking at the stunning Mtn. Views and the mesquite fence and knew we were finally "home." I've always adored the SW Hummingbirds and wanted to name the property La Hacienda Chuparosa. When we moved in, for the first week, every morning a hummingbird was sipping nectar from one of our plants in the front yard. We knew it was meant to be. So we added a couple of horses to our dream, built some stalls, and now are ready to welcome you to La Hacienda Chuparosa. We know you will find the same magic here that we do.

A lower dispersed spot. All camps are large, some more private than others. The lower spots are protected, higher spots exposed. the elevation here makes for cool relief from the hot desert summer, but cold winter camping (by Tucson standards) think snow.

A very nice rv site situated with good views and a nice degree of privacy, nestled in an area with semi rural homes, some with horses. The site, as advertised, has full hookups, all working, and is level with room to park your tow or second vehicle. The owners were very prompt and helpful with communications. Highly recommended!

It was a relatively private spot, and flat. The view out our back end, facing West, was spectacular, especially at sunset. All utilities worked as stated. Plenty of wildlife, javalinas( look like boars, but no big teeth. You still don't want to make them angry. We had a family of ten come thru most mornings. Very much worth it.

What a wonderful campground! It was extremely clean. Absolutely beautiful location and so conveniently located near the national park! Communication was excellent. The hosts were so friendly and kind and hospitable. Our children had a wonderful time playing and doing a scavenger hunt! The bathrooms were very well-maintained as was the laundry room. We will definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone!

We both enjoyed camping at Cactus Forest. The views were wonderful and being able to see the stars. Love the property and it was closed to Casa Grande Ruins National Monument I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to be close to a historical monument and a Boondocking experience! We plan to stay here again in another overlanding trip. Thank you to hosts

What a great spot. Very welcoming staff, and great vibe that they've obviously put a lot of work into creating. The facilities were clean and well maintained. The common area is a great spot to hang out, watch a movie, and meet fellow travelers. The general area has some great food trucks and a fun neighborhood dive bar right across the street. Looking forward to coming back through.

We were only there for a night, but we really enjoyed sleeping next to the Saguaro and other cactus. The birds all over the cacti in the morning were also a real treat. The campsite was spacious and set up nicely. The showers and restrooms were set up nicely, as was the shared entertainment area. Communication before our visit was also very helpful.

Nice, large campground vibe. Kind of in a neighborhood, so less wild than I expected, but a good place for a night. Bathrooms were clean and laundry was easy and inexpensive.

The hosts were excellent and went out of their way to make the stay wonderful. The outdoor movies were fun and popcorn was available. Morning coffee came with the stay which made it nice . The common areas were comfortable and nicely decorated. Although it was in the city limits it felt like it was in a world of it's own. It was secure by locked gates so I felt safe.

Javelin Hollow was a beautiful campground with very nice amenities and nice people! Definitely the highlight of our trip to Saguaro NP. Great, clean bathrooms. Nice spaces with beautiful surroundings. Nice folks who helped us get ice and cook when our camp stove ran out of fuel. 7 minutes from the Wasson Peak trailhead and 10 minutes from the visitor center. The stars were the real highlight - 5 shooting stars, space dust and a satellite spotted. We would stay again! Thank you all. ❤️

My camp spot, Silly Lizard, was very private and quiet. My full size van and 13 ft Scamp trailer fit nicely. I had texted before hand to make sure I would fit (which was answered promptly) and this was one of the sites recommended to me. All the amenities were nice and so were the camp hosts. It was a lovely stopover on the way to my winter camp and I plan to stay again in the spring.

We enjoyed our stay in the desert at Cactus Forest. It’s in the middle of the desert, and the afternoons are hot, but when we use our camper as shade, the temps were cool and breezy. We enjoyed walking our dog along the dirt road, and didn’t experience any stickers! The evenings are cool, and there is a big sky above…..A perfect spot to stop for the night😍
