Twin Peaks Campground

Twin Peaks campground is a well planned and well executed campground. Sites are very level cement with extra space between the parking pad and the picnics table for a yoga mat or chairs or whatever. Every site is pull through.

Our site had a gorgeous organ pipe right at the site. The sites are all next to one another with only cacti for screening however we felt like there was plenty of space. If you have solar on your vehicle these sites are particularly excellent! Of note not every site has an organ pipe cactus 😂 we met a couple looking to change spaces because their site didn't have one.

The solar showers are very good. Just need to time your shower for mid-day-- morning they are cold and by evening scalding :)

There was no T-Mobile service. There was good Verizon service at our site-- 2 bars and sufficient for video conference.

There are several short hiking trails that start right at the campground. Great hike up the ridge for sunset and/or sunrise. Ranger programs right at the campground in season.

The dirt roads we found more washboardy than we like for our camper. Seemed fine for a vehicle that can take shaking or for mountain biking.

We felt very safe here and had no issues whatsoever with folks crossing the border.

Campground is located within Organ Pipe National Monument. Booked through Recreation.gov No hookups at site, but water spigots located throughout park. There is potable water and a dump station at the south end of the campground (currently the potable water in the right lane is out of order.) During the winter months they do have strict generator hours 0800-1000 & 1600-1800. All day generator use from Memorial Day-Labor Day.

The campground has over 200 sites that accommodate multiple size RVs. The map shows the sites in different colors that are color coordinated to the size RV it will fit. In fact, at the actual sites they also have the same color coordinated sign to identify the sites.

The campsites are nice concrete and pretty level. It included a picnic table and grill. Some also have a ramada over the table. While the sites may be closer together and set up more like a typical private campground, it definitely still felt private and like you had plenty of room. The sites were at an angle, the roads curved a bit, and all the natural landscaping provided a cozy campsite feel. Super quiet at night and dark skies.

This campground also had bathrooms, solar showers, trash receptacles, recycling for aluminum cans, an amphitheater with nightly ranger led programs, and access to many easy walking trails. Had great Verizon signal and able to stream videos.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The sites were well maintained, level and clean. The sites were separated by a variety of desert fauna. Everyone was courteous and abided by the generator restrictions of 8-10 AM and 4-6 PM (although at 7:59 AM you could hear many generators fire up).
There are a variety of things to do in the park with a visitor center, various hikes, and a couple of driving routes through the nearby desert.
Washrooms were clean, although the solar showers most often were a frigid awakening no matter the time of day.
We absolutely loved the park, friendly fellow campers and park personnel.

The Park Service has done a great job with this campground. They have retained much of the native vegetation around the campsites. Even though the sites are all close together, you tend not to notice your neighbors because of the vegetation. The campsites vary and you should pay attention to the photos on recreation.gov when choosing your site. Some sites have a gravel tent pad, some have a ramada (roof) over the picnic table, while others have neither.

I like that there is a foot trail that circles the campground for dog walking. Dogs can also be taken on the trail to the visitor center. This yields several miles of trails that dogs are allowed on.

Beautiful park with amazing views. Situated on a rise, most RV’s are facing S.East.
No water hookup, no sewer. + Electric sites. Clean BR’s and available solar showers in 3 of BR’s. Shower/Water can be pretty chilly as one of our party can attest to. Great hiking and the loop drive across the road gave access to stunning rock formations and good hiking. America the Beautiful pass took 10.00 off per night.

The layout is amazing; you’d never know there were so many campsites because the spacing, angles and landscape of the sites yield a very private, quiet feeling. The bathrooms were immaculate. Not sure I’ve had a better shower than the solar showers there. Campground hosts were terrific. Trails were fun. The 21-mile Ajo Mountain drive took us 3.5 hours because we stopped so often to enjoy the scenery.

Highway 86 from Tucson can be a bit rough in spots.

Verizon cellular service clocked in at 13.3 Mbps download speed and 0.20 Mbps upload speed. AT&T cellular service clocked in at 34.4 Mbps download speed and 1.48 Mbps upload speed. T-Mobile cellular service clocked in at 2.05 Mbps download speed and 1.04 Mbps upload speed.

Gorgeous spot. Even on winter weekend and nearly full generator RV campground it was peaceful. Be forewarned that gen hrs at supper time are 4 til 6, and be prepared. Long drive to get here but worth it. Restrooms (no showers of course) were very clean. Be forewarned too that the e good gravel loop of Ajo Mountain will rattle your teeth and your canned goods and your dog and your nerves, the last one third of it, at least. Loved the first two thirds of drive and scenery was worth the road — but the last third was much rougher. We’ll be eating dust for days.
