It was a fine campground and we liked our tent site. However, it was early spring, the wind was blowing and the smell from the wastewater (collection site and open pool) was tough to bear. It smelled more like septic to me, but the ranger assured us it was just the grey water and the direction of the wind. It did finally pass, but we needed to be away from our campsite most of the day. There was plenty to keep us busy with hiking and driving around the park, so we certainly made do. If you are particularly sensitive to smells, make the sure the prevailing winds are in the right direction. Our site was along the very back of the campground, near the pumping station for grey water. That may not have helped. Just a caution; definitely should not deter you from checking out the area!

One of my favorites parks and campgrounds. Excellent stopover going in and out of Mexico.

We tent camped and had a great time. This is an excellent campground in a beautiful, somewhat remote park. Staff were pleasant. Sites were very clean and tidy upon arrival. Bathrooms very clean as well. Potable water was handy (no hose, but it fills a water jug quickly). We liked that there are non-generator sites; this kept it quiet. Lovely place! We will be back. The park (OPC national monument) has lots of nice easy walks, more rigorous hikes, and scenic driving tours. There are no shops or stores in the park, so stock up before you get here in the "Why Not" convenience center, or a grocery store in Ajo.
Good

It is a lovely campsite set in a fabulous National Monument. The rangers were friendly and helpful. I was scouting a mid-December backpacking trip and got all of the attention and help I needed (many parts of the backcountry are closed to camping). I'll be back.

Tent camping for us at Twin Peaks has always been a pleasant experience, from the stunning scenery, cleanliness of the sites and facilities, and generally respectful guests. Access to hiking and exploration of the area is convenient and satisfying. This is my favorite place! This year was our fifth visit.

Wonderful place to watch a beautiful sun set. We'll be back hopefully in the spring.

This camping trip has been planned for six months and was everything I was hoping it would be. Nature viewing was excellent and the super bloom was amazing! Totally relaxing with a campfire and good neighbors.

Lovely, clean campsite. Restrooms a ways away, but also clean. Beautiful views of Organ Pipe.
