I had no idea what the instructions were since they didn't have any available. Even a posted example in the display would have helped. I guess since you are an RVer, they believe you aren't a complete rock. I paid what I assumed was the standard price and left. Side note, I saw a B-1B in the Boneyard. Kind of disturbing since the B-1B entered active duty the year before I joined the service. Oh well. Another example, Im not a spring chicken.

So here's the cool thing: While most (all?) other campgrounds on Mt. Lemmon are closed during the…read morewinter and open in the summer, Molino Basin has a season that is just the opposite: open from November 1st through early May. During the closed season, the paved road system is only accessible to bikes and pedestrians, and no camping is allowed. Thanks to Google, here's some additional useful tidbits: This campground lies within the desert grassland and open oak woodland ecosystems, at an altitude of around 4,300 feet. There are 37 campsites which can accommodate trailers up to 22 feet in length. Camping (or day-use) costs $10.00 per vehicle, and all fees are payable at the time you occupy the site. There's a limit of two vehicles and ten persons per site, for up to 14 days. This accessible campground features rest rooms (the non-flushing kind), picnic areas, an Arizona Trail trailhead and a group-use site by reservation. So why do I dig this place? During the summer, I can haul my kids and their bikes to the campground and have miles of paved roads (and public restrooms) all to ourselves. I don't THINK we were even breaking any laws/rules by being there. Sure, we have to go early or we'll end up featured on the 5:00 news.

Gordon Hirabayashi Campground, also known as Prison Camp, Tucson, AZ. Nov, 2025…read more This campground, in the Coronado National Forest, is managed by the US Forest Service (USDA), and is open November-April. It has 12 campsites (some of which are double), and can accommodate tents and small RVs (22' or less). The sites have a picnic table, fire ring with grill, and a bear box. There are no hook-ups available for electricity or potable water. Shade is also limited. The campground has gender-specific restrooms with pit toilets; there are no showers nor running water in the restrooms. All sites are first-come, and cost $20/site/night or $40 for a double ($10/$20 for those with an interagency pass (annual, senior, access, or military)). You pay via envelope (provided) on-site or to the camp host (position still vacant on Nov 30th). Horse and pack animals are allowed at this campground, and the map shows areas for corral and trailer parking. Both horse riding and human hiking trails are available from the campground. This area is also home to the Gordon Hirabayashi Recreation Site, with a number of informational signs and remnants of historical buildings. "In 1942, at age 24, Gordon Hirabayashi challenged the relocation and internment of Japanese Americans during World War II. Convicted of violating a curfew imposed on Japanese-Americans, he was sentenced to the Catalina Federal Honor Camp, the work camp that stood at this site between 1939 and 1973. Hirabayashi's case was reopened in 1987 and led to official apologies from the US government for the mass incarceration of 117 thousand Japanese American citizens and aliens alike." The area is beautiful, but not rated as 5 because of the lack of potable water and the closeness/lack of privacy between sites.

The park was nice and clean from what we saw…read more I know some of the reviews show other things, but we didn't experience the bathrooms, as we had a self contained RV, but for the price it was a great place to stay for a night. The staff we did have contact with, were pleasant and kind (I would have asked for names, but I sometimes feel that is weird). If you are in the are and looking for a place to stop, this seems like a nice place in the Tucson area. It is on a busy street, but we usually run our fan and a sound machine at night, so it didn't bother us at all.

She wouldn't honor the reservation, She did not give me the correct information about the facility, and nearly ruined my visit to Tucson. Luckily one of the nearby RV parks was able to accommodate me last minute, otherwise my wife and I would have been literally out in the cold. Her attitude towards customers has no excuse. Avoid Whispering Palms at all costs. Happy to provide more details on my experience to anyone interested.

We only needed a place to stay with our RV for the weekend to visit the Davis Monthan AFB Air Show. A majority of folks seem to live there and very kind friendly staff but the amenities are a little run down from not a lot of up keep. Sewer did not have a proper cap to keep the smell out they put a cement block on top as substitute. Pool looked like it needed some maintenance. Tucson in general has a lot of homeless around but they never bugged us at our stay here. Other than that Nancy was great at making sure our family had a site for the weekend. It's alright for a short stay. If you are looking for luxury resort it may not meet the highest of standards but decent to get you back on the road.
