Our natural, unspoiled desert setting is the main draw to Desert Trails RV Park in Tucson, Arizona.
We are an adult 40+ RV park and attract an energetic customer base. This is reflected in our hiking, biking, dances, aerobics, and other outdoor activities, mostly organized by our community guests in the winter, creating a campground atmosphere.
We have improved and renovated the building and repainted to give it a more vibrant look.
The Park is under new ownership and is still a work in progress. Every “off-season” we upgrade infrastructure as well as improve existing buildings and create new spaces for expanding activities.
In addition to the amazing artists who perform concerts 2-3 times per month in the winter, our enthusiastic audiences also like the conventional “shows” like Friday jam sessions with guests who love to play music.
All evenings or day events are well attended and generate a welcoming atmosphere that encourages top names to return to perform at Desert Trails.
On nights without live music, we fill up the rest of the schedule with lectures, bingo, karaoke, poker, and games.
The park offers Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners organized by our park community and it creates an enormous sense of volunteerism.
We are busy and occupied the entire winter and we welcome you all to try our friendly community in the park for your next winter destination.
Enjoy Nature in the Warmth of Tucson
No Trains, Planes, or Freeways … Just Quiet
After noticing the absence of trains and planes, guests love our peaceful campground in sunny Tucson and compliment us on our natural landscape. Sunset views can be experienced from all over the park. Some of this is prominent in the “desert oasis” in the center of the RV Park.
Here the thick fauna and trees attract 50 varieties of birds seen in our Park. Javelina and coyotes also wander through at times but are far outnumbered by the rabbits, roadrunners, and doves.

I cannot say enough nice things about this park. As a newbie RV'r I wanted to do a trial run and chose this park near the Tucson mountains. Previously Justin's Water World with remnants of the old park but nicely revised to accommodate all shapes and sizes of RV's. I emailed a reservation request for a pull thru as I am a novice with a 29' coach. I was graciously assured of the accommodation and pleased to find the nightly price of $32 was all inclusive of tax and all hookups. Free ice and a dog park were within walking distance and friendly neighbors everywhere. 
Would definitely return! Online ratings are often the reflection of how well a business or product meets a person's expectations. On that count, Desert Trails gets five stars. We expected a funky, older park with a strong sense of community and absolutely got it. Our experience was bolstered by being fortunate to get a spot in C-loop, a cul de sac at the rear of the park with big sites that back up to the desert. The park offered top-flight musical entertainment three times during our two-week stay, outstanding food trucks twice a week, and a fun and informative community meeting each Monday. Our stay was absolutely outstanding!
The reasons I’m not giving Desert Trails five stars: the location is a little remote from town and various services; the infrastructure is a bit old and hodge-podge; many of the sites are packed in pretty tight.
So, depending on your RV park expectations, Desert Trails may be for you. We absolutely plan to return if we go back to Tucson! 
A really nice park. This one has just about everything you could want in an RV Park. The staff and the campers were all very nice and personable. The park is very pet friendly, with plenty of spaces to exercise your pets. The park backs up to a state and National park area, which is filled with hiking and Mountain Bike riding trails. It is in a big city, but totally secluded.
