Tucson Snowbird Nest

"Tucson snowbird nest was a blessing to us after a long day of driving. We were welcomed with open arms. Thank you both!"

"What a hidden treasure! This is a unique and beautiful oasis right outside the Saguaro National Park. The space is very charming and Duke (the host) is equally so. You also have all what you need: private space, hookups, and very clean bathrooms with warm water. Definitely will come back! Tip: Be sure to call Duke by phone beforehand to setup your reservation."

"This is a gem! Dwayne (I think that was his name) has created a nice space for campers. The grounds are very curated with wild life, cactuses, it seems like it’s always been there which is a sign of great skill. It felt like we were close to folks so we didn’t feel alone, but roomy enough where we had a good amount of privacy. Listening to all the different birds was a treat, too! The bathroom was fabulous! An actual plumbed toilet, sink and very hot shower. Each site also has electric hookups and a picnic table. It was $30 for the night which was very much worth it. We’ve been on the road for a week and this was a place we felt very comfortable and could relax for a bit."

"This tucked away campground is just the most amazing little diamond in the desert. We arrived at nighttime after a few calls. The camp host met us on the road leading in after I did 2 turn arounds in a 57 foot rig. They have full service spots that are pretty still in touch with the surrounding NATL park. The camp hosts are just awesome people and exceedingly friendly. My daughter calls one host Aunt Pamela. There is a mini lookout tower that gives you a 360 view of the ranges surrounding the basin. The shower house is nice and clean. My suggestions to the owner would be 5-7 mores spots and little number signs. For being a Snowbird Nest, they let a family with kids in...so if you have kids, keep them quiet for the other guests. I will be back anytime I'm spending a weekend in Tucson!"

"I found out about Tucson Snowbird Nest through the Gilbert Ray Campground hosts. They often send overflow here, and I really appreciate it! Only fifteen minutes or so from the Tucson Mountain Park and the Saguaro National Park, this is a wonderful option. Duke and Sue are great hosts and really go out of their way to make folks feel comfortable and welcome. There are a few sites here with electrical hook ups, plenty of water, and hot showers to boot! A great place to stay for a night or several months. Thanks so much for making me and so many others feel welcome and well cared for!"
