Molino Basin Campground

Very clean restrooms. Nice trails. Bluebirds 😊. There are only a few “RV only” sites that are good for vehicle campers. The rest are set up such that you park at your site but not IN your site… better for tents.

Open Nov thru April. Probably 25-30 campsites but no campers because camping out in the Winter when it's in the 20's at night is not much fun. There are 5 only sites suitable for RVs that are always filled. No way to contact the campground and you cannot make a reservation. It's a bust!!

Great campground, very spread out so lots of space between campsites. Clean restrooms. Quiet and nice views. This is dry camping - bring your own water; there are vault toilets, garbage bins. Only a few sites are suitable for RVs and they recommend maximum 22ft for trailers.

Perfect spot for our end of March camping trip. We arrived on a Friday afternoon expecting it to be packed but there were plenty of spots (some remained empty). We had a lot of fun going on the easy hike with the kids (didn't do the whole thing) and had some deer get pretty close. I recommend this to everyone including first time campers. No running water but there are pit toilets (thus the 4 stars).

This is a great campground and it’s only a short drive up Mount Lemmon. Actually pretty near the bottom just north of mile marker 4. Lots of camping spots a d fairly well spread out. They provide a table and grill area and most spots I saw. Fees for the night are very reasonable. I went for a hike and I thought the trails were pretty poorly marked. You have to really look for the vertical rectangle “trail” signs and they are often pretty faded. The views were ok but nay as odd as many other hikes in Tucson.

Grabbed a spot at the far end near the AZT trail crossing. Sites are spread out well - I didn’t hear anyone else around me. Facilities are good, caretaker was very helpful. Stars were insane! Thanks to all federal employees and volunteers who are doing their best to hold these places together while their jobs and resources are under extreme threat by our current administration. Save our parks! Protect our public lands! Thank these heroes when you have the opportunity and speak up to our elected officials.
