The Great Outdoors

The Sonoran Desert National Monument, located just 15 miles to the east of Gila Bend, is open year-round. This site features a "forest" of saguaro cactus. Please note, there is no water available on site. Also, expect cellphone service to be spotty. Please call for current road conditions as they can vary greatly based on weather.

It was my first time renting an RV. It was a great experience! Communication was great. Very quick to respond & answer any questions/concerns. Host was very thorough with the walk through when we picked up & reassured us if we had any questions to feel free to reach out. RV was clean & had supplies for us to use throughout the trip.
