We have a new favorite park

We have discovered the park that we definately will return to and spend time at. Desert Trails RV Park, in Tucson, is in the desert less than 2 miles from the base of the mountains in Tucson Mountain Park. From the friendly, informative greeting we received from the owner upon checkin to the many activities that are available that one may or may not take advantage of, to the close priximity of Tucson and the many attractions of the area, to to the many miles of desert trails leading to Tucson Mtn and Saguaro National Forest, to the pet friendly atmosphere including a large, clean, fenced in dog run, to the many nights of entertainment to.....You get the idea. We love it. We had trouble believing that it was as good as RV Park Reviews said it was but were made into believers quickly. Plenty of room for big rigs, too.

Jim,

While you are there check out the Diamond J RV Park next door. Less activities by much bigger sites. I have been told that Diamond J is a bit cheaper but that might have been winter rate.

We stayed there for three weeks in February 2008 and February 2010.

Thanks, Grant. We checked Diamond J out and rates are similar, lots are mostly larger and roads are paved. The two parks would probably would be 1A and 1B. Our preference is because of the treatment we are receiving here from the owners and other guests.

We stayed at Diamond J several years ago. Rates were good and sites were generous but owners were not overly friendly and unavailable a lot of the time. Sites are covered with large gravel which we had trouble walking on. We drove around Desert Trails and decided the next time we are in the area we would stay there.
Happy trails.......................

Hi Sue,

We stayed at Diamond J two years ago when they had the large gravel. They have since added "pea" gravel to the sites. Where the RV actual sits is still the larger gravel but the rest of the site has pea gravel ove the large gravel.

We seldom join in with park activities so had very little contact with owners beyond checking in.
