Our site is pretty flat, and has a nice concrete pad. There are no trees, but there are not many trees here at all. There is a large tree-like yucca plant in between our site and the one next door.
There are lots of native plants nicely landscaped around the park including saguaros and other cactii that I don't know the names of. There is actually a Cactus Nursery right next door to the campground that has seven acres of different species of cactus. Some of them are quite unusual.
These small cacti are in bloom all over the park. The flowers are about three inches in diameter, and there are lots of them.
Here is a picture of the yucca--those things get pretty big out here.
And as usual, the desert sunsets are gorgeous!

What a cute little park. Nice to have the nursery next door. I think that's a prickly pear cactus in bloom.
Excellent sunset with sagauro!
Wow! Great price, that even beats our price that we paid at Powderhorn this winter! Looks like a nice spot!
Ooo, I forgot how pretty blooming cacti were!
How far are you from Tucson?
What a deal! When do you go back the Grand Canyon?
Gaelyn: thanks! I love that picture of the sunset, too.
Talina: yep, purty!
Yarntangler: we are about 40 miles west of Phoenix
lupingirl: We have to be there by April 28, hope to be there by at least April 25. Depends on when they get the snow off the road.
I love a desert sunset.
i like it! I would love to see a desert sunset in real life one day.
