"Great place to spend a few days. Very interesting cacti, mountains and terrain. Campground is clean with level concrete pads. Nice trails also"

"Amazing! Great camping, level sites with plenty of space, and clean restrooms. You must stop at the Visitor Center. The Rangers and Volunteers are amazing. Lots of educational talks. We went to the one on Bats in the evening at the amphitheater in the campground. She made it so fun. Great hiking: easy - difficult. Awesome scenic drive and of course the beautiful Pipe Organ Cactus. Thank you for a great visit!"

"The Green Desert for sure! Returned to camp, hike, and photograph in OPCNM after having a drive through about 10 years ago. Marveled at how green it is! We tent-camped at Alamo Canyon and liked the location, then drove to the south every day, but one (d'oh). The "primitive" camp is comfortable with nice flat tent pads. The sites are well spread out, and each has a standing grill and picnic table. The vault toilet was very clean and well stocked during our stay. The bulletin board was updated regularly with program information. We had a rainy night (half an inch!). The campsite drained perfectly and the desert drank it up! We hiked and enjoyed: Alamo Canyon trail and all over the basin, Arch Rock trail with Ranger Frank, Red Tanks and Baker Mine with Ranger Alex, Desert View trail at the end of the day, Palo Verde Trail, the Visitor Center garden tour with Ranger Bethany. Docent Don gave a terrific evening program about the web of life (Our Delicate Desert). Another docent offered solar viewing on the Visitor Center patio. All the rangers, volunteers, and staff were welcoming and friendly. We drove the Ajo Mountain loop every afternoon looking for the best light and were not disappointed. I wish there were a few more pullouts where we could stop and explore a landscape, but that's my only complaint. The Twin Peaks Campground looks plush and the amphitheater has a great projection system. We would have gone every night, but it's a long drive back to Alamo after the 7pm program when you haven't had dinner yet. This is a very dark park, so the stars show off! Thanks to the Park Service for keeping down the local light pollution. We'll be back for the spring bloom! Bring your annual or lifetime National Parks Pass for free entry and discounted camp fees.

"Stayed at the campground four nights. Although dry camping, sites are a good size with vegetation between them. Fresh water fill up and dump site available. Really enjoyed the ranger talks. There were 3 each day (10, 2 and evening) with varying subjects throughout the time we were there."
