Star Hosts in Tucson

Sanctuary at Sonoita Creek

4 sites · RVs1 acre · Patagonia, AZ

Sanctuary at Sonoita Creek was created as a place to enjoy the unique treasures of Patagonia, AZ. We wanted to provide a haven for people who value the outdoors to gather and take advantage of the recreational aspects of the area and also be walking distance to town. Our property was once a trailer court. We've done a huge renovation to provide RV spaces, a vintage trailer rental and tent camping.

La Hacienda Chuparosa

6 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents4 acres · Tucson, AZ

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.

Three Pines Homestead

3 sites · RVs, Tents30 acres · Arivaca, AZ

Three Pines Homestead is home to three large pines in the Front Yard. Once a thriving apple orchard was on this property, where people came to enjoy the fruits of the land. Now it's a gathering place to campers passing through, where they can ride horses, enjoy baby goats and take a tour of our family butchering business (Homestead Butcher). Feel free to join us and enjoy the adventures here on the homestead. You can watch the horses horsing around, snuggle baby goats in the spring, catch stunning sunsets and soak up the 360 mountain views all year round. We also offer hands on classes in the butchering shop, guided horse rides, trampoline fun for kids and kids at heart and plenty of "kid" jokes for everyone.
