Camp hosts are very friendly and helpful. The campground is well shaded by natural vegetation so relying on solar power is not a good option. If you are car, van, or tent camping you will find the sites to be very spacious. If in a motorhome or trailer there are only a few sites with driveways long enough to fit. Site 20, in particular, is tight because the entry angle is backwards from what it should be making backing in with a trailer difficult if not impossible. Fortunately the hosts are very accommodating and will arrange for going "wrong way" on the one-way road if necessary to make it possible to enter or exit the spot.

The campground is perfectly located for exploring the Chiricahua National Monument. Several trailheads are only a short walk away at the visitor's center. Coati will sometimes enter the campground; they and wild turkeys and deer can often be encountered on the trail between the campground and the Faraway Ranch.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
