Catalina State Park, Campground Review

Outside of Tucson, AZ., we stayed at this WONDERFUL campground.  We stayed here for a week and had a great stay.  The hosts do a fantastic job checking everyone in and keeping the grounds immaculate.

Price- $25/night for electric and water.  There are two dump stations.

Location- Perfect for visiting Tucson.  Right across the street is a Walmart, and many shops, and the city of Tucson is 20 minutes or less, depending on what sights you are visiting.

Campground- the sites are HUGE, and you have plenty of room between you and your neighbors.  :) We picked our site with their online reservation system; site 32B.  It was right next to the restrooms, so it was very convenient.  The bathrooms were some of the cleanest I've seen.  They literally clean them at least once every single day.  You can not find a piece of trash, or dust or mold anywhere.

The scenery is just beautiful, with mountains, gorgeous sunsets, and the authentic desert vegetation.  The kids enjoyed riding their bikes all around the grounds and 'hunting' for lizards, enormous grass hoppers, and butterflies.  :)  We kept our eyes out for the rattlesnakes and tarantulas, and thankfully, never saw one!

I would definitely recommend this campground.  It was so peaceful and well kept.

Blessings,
Steph
