In the evening, enjoy breathtaking sunsets followed by crystal-clear night skies—far away from any light pollution. With a bit of luck, you may spot local wildlife such as deer, owls, coyotes, or rare desert birds.
Some of the region’s most popular attractions are just a short drive away: the world-renowned Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, the Western film town of Old Tucson, and the scenic Gates Pass overlook.
Upon request and for a small additional fee, we also offer guided desert experiences—from informative daytime tours to exciting nighttime scorpion hunts with UV lights. These tours offer a unique way to connect with the desert on a deeper level.
Whether you're camping, staying in your RV, or relaxing in one of our cozy casitas—this is where you'll find peace, nature, and the true spirit of the desert.

This place has some quirks but the CHARM is overwhelming and I absolutely loved staying here!! Toni is amazing and so so sweet and accommodating. We needed a place to bring our small pack of rescue pups while visiting Tucson and this was perfect for us. We cannot wait to come back and would highly recommend booking with her when you are traveling through Tucson! And if you do - make sure to tell her Danielle sent you :)

I had a wonderful experience at Mesquite Haven! Jennifer let me stay in the Tombstone Rose since there was no one else there and it was so hot out. They have so many amenities in the kitchen and bathroom, clean towels and dishes to borrow. It was great talking with Jennifer and Dave, they are so friendly and know a lot about good things to do in the area. I highly recommend this site to anyone visiting Tucson!!!

Very nice place to stay. Karla was very welcoming and makes her pool and other amenities available. The ranch is really peaceful with beautiful views.
Karla has made very artistic a s wonderful updates to the place to make it feel magical and homely. We may very likely be staying again in the future.

What a gorgeous lil Alpaca farm. The owners gave me an in-depth tour and explained the process of raising alpacas all the way to producing yarn and a huge variety of goods from their fleece. Don’t skip on the farm tour!

Barb was great, and very helpful! We did a tent site and appreciated the two chairs and table that came with it. Way better than a public campground, and the toilet and shower were clean and close by. Bonus was the baby pony!

This space is a must stay! Deacon & Debi have thoughtfully designed this space for a complete disconnect & recharge. Make sure to book the toilet, you won't be disappointed. 🙂

Good spot. Not too hard to get to, drove in a FWD Corolla no problem. Big piece of land, most of it is hard rocky. I found a very small corner with more dirt/grass mixture and it worked well for a 2p tent. There were big ants all over but they didn’t bother me. Trash can provided, no other amenities. Not too loud and very peaceful, though close to city.

This is a beautiful spot tucked back into a canyon of many, many live oaks with some chaparral, and few cacti and manzanita. There's a nearby short hike up to a narrow rocky canyon that is other worldly. As described in the listing, it doesn't seem like southern AZ. Also it was very quiet.

We had a great time staying here! Mary was friendly and super accommodating, and the amenities she provided were perfect - we loved the hot shower, bathroom, and campfire area after spending the day birding the Patagonia area. We’ll be back again!

Perhaps our favorite Hipcamp of the dozens we have stayed at. Clean, super cool outdoor shower, and free washer and drier. Easy walk to trails, groceries, restaurants. Super birdlife.

This quick overnight stay in Tucson was exactly what I was looking for. Karl was extremely helpful and kind, and even helped me park my trailer after a grueling 14 hr drive with bad weather. Plus, he recommended a great burger spot close by. The place had a cozy atomic sheek vibe with retro art cars and vintage trailers. There was a communal kitchen, two showers and bathrooms, a nice clean pool, and an assortment of movies and board games for your choosing. Highly recommend.
