Coronado National Forest

This time it was cleaner and well maintained, we had the trash container there which was very helpful because last year we had to take our trash. The only issue we had was that people kept coming in even if the gate was closed. Had to tell them that it was reserved and needed to leave.

We were celebrating our daughter's 13th birthday. Camping is what she wanted. we all had a great time. The weather was great and Mt. Lemmon was beautiful. The cabin was a real find for us. Clean, fully furnished and a great kitchen. We are telling our friends about the National Forests for a get away. Not far from Rose Canyon Lake or Summerhaven. Good hiking and birding. We thought the price was reasonable too. Thank you for such a nice facility close to Tucson.

It is a wonderful, magical place. We have enjoyed staying there many times. However, for $150 per night we are still expected to mop and clean the cabin when we leave. I wouldn’t mind doing that if we had adequate cleaning supplies, paper towels and toilet paper. Otherwise the kitchen was well stocked and beds comfortable!!

We travelled to Cave Creek, AZ to enjoy the day but upon arrival realized we wanted to stay longer. We checked with recreation.gov on availability and were pleasantly surprised to find this unit available for the two nights we wanted to stay. The cabin was clean, comfortable and had pots, pans, silverware etc available. We brought our own coffee maker, blankets and pillows. The views are spectacular from the patio area. It was quiet and snug. We did use the wood burner one night as there was a storm that blew through. Highly recommend this cabin and only ask that more cleaning supplies be provided as guests are required to clean up.

We enjoyed our stay at Kentucky Camp, our 3rd time there. Very quiet and plenty of solitude from busy life. Lots of wildlife viewing opportunities as well. The new AZT passage leaving North from KC is amazing!

This is a great spot. The forest service did a fantastic job making sure the site was clean, landscaped, and the restrooms were immaculate. The site is big and lots of room for your camp party. It was easy to find and the lake is only 5 minutes away. There is no cell service but that’s fine for us! Only part I didn’t like was the traffic. We started our stay Thursday night and were woken up at 7am Friday by the massive road grader driving through camp. Later that day the forest service stopped by to check in. Shortly after that, ICE showed up and started asking people about a vehicle they were pursuing. On Saturday night we had visitors at midnight that just drove in and sat in our camp for 30 minutes, didn’t get out of their cars. Lots of shooting in the area after sun goes down. It was nice to have the border patrol presence and I know we’re close to the border but these events were real and need to be taken into consideration before you bring your family. I was grateful we had a large group when we had the midnight visitors. I would have been more disciplined about keeping the entrance gate closed if I know there would have been this many random people. This is not a reflection on the forest service, just the inherent nature of this camp.
