This is a small family run park. The lady, Sue that runs it is super helpful - she gave me brochures and a recommended itinerary for the one full day we had in town. The park is about 3 blocks from the Mains street so you can totally walk to everything from here, and home from the saloons if you choose to have a few brews in a place where Doc and Wyatt drank. Sue offers home cooked breakfast, muffins and cinnamon buns every day - I had a cinnamon bun, it was great. The bathrooms were old but clean. On day 3 there was a big wad of hair in the drain, and it didn't seem to be draining - I told her about it and she said she'd send her guy out that day. We had a screaming fast Wi-Fi signal in this park. The pull through sites are really narrow, but if you have slides, the back-ins should be large enough for you. We originally parked at Tombstone RV about a mile out of town, but moved to this park when the other sites were not level, Wi-Fi sucked there and we'd had to have driven into town vs the 5 minute walk from this one. The guy there told us no other park in town even had any Wi-Fi - this is the second time we've been lied to by one park owner - don't believe anything one tells you about other parks, they just want you to stay at theirs. Overall - we will stay in this park again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stopped here for 1 week. Six weeks later, we finally left. The campground itself is not luxurious, but the people and the town make it hard to leave. The facilities are good and the breakfast cafe is outstanding. The owners and their staff are topnotch. If you like history and good people, this is a must stop. It is within walking distance of downtown Tombstone, where something is always happening. We are sure there is 1 grouch there, but we did not find them. The people make this place. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The location is good. The lady who runs the park is very nice and super helpful (we also saw her in a period fashion show during the day). However everything else is barley acceptable, gents toilet and shower (there is only one) were not very clean at all. The park has some chaotic charm but we would not stay here again mainly due to the toilets/showers. However do go and visit Tombstone we always have a lovely time when we visit and will be back again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Had a great time, very clean bathrooms and showers and enjoyed the breakfast every day. Very friendly and helpful. The owners are very knowledgeable of the town and it's history. A very easy 2 block walk to the downtown area of Tombstone. Use the cleaned laundry with no problems at all. Wi-Fi worked great. This area is 4600 ft so the weather was great. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
After experiencing major frustration and customer service issues checking-in to another RV park, we stumbled across the Stampede RV park. In appearance, the park was similar to all others located in the town of Tombstone. However, this one stands above the others in my opinion based on their attitude and personal care for their customers. We were given a choice of many spaces and assisted with set-up. After check-in, we were given an excellent run-down on what Tombstone has to offer, which included an excellent history lesson to compliment our day of attractions. The park was quiet and our space was adequate. After a day of touring and a good night's sleep, their morning breakfast was excellent and much like Grandma used to make or what you would expect from an old fashioned B&B. Their rates were also the most reasonable we found. If you are planning to stay close to the attractions in town, I highly recommend them. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Location, Location. It is in the town of Tombstone at the end of Allen Street. Lady is a wealth of information as well as her husband. She knows her town and will share information with you. Wi-Fi is still not working. Laundry was clean but only about half of the machines worked. Yes, in front of the office it is still cluttered. They offer breakfast in a small dining room at a reasonable rate. No other meals are available. Good electrical power on our site. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Sites are very cramped. Nothing for kids to do at the site. They advertise WI-FI; however it doesn't work. They also advertise cable hookup, apparently lighting hit the transfer box a YEAR ago and they still don't have cable hook up. You have to leave a $5 deposit for the bathroom key. Although the town of Tombstone is a nice place to visit, I wouldn't put my money into this park again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Site was $23 plus $3 each for having more than 2 people. The park is a small sized gravel lot with an office building and a restroom building. There are some trees on the periphery but no trees inside/between spaces. We were offered either a pull thru or back in space. We chose the back in because it had cable TV hookups. However, the cable didn't work. We never visited the restroom so can't comment on that. There is a lot of junk piled around the office which leaves a poor impression. The couple who runs the park were very friendly. They gave me a map tour of Tombstone and pointed out places to visit and good restaurants. There isn't much to the place but it is about a 3 block walk to Tombstone. We didn't see any RV park which was better so this park will work fine if you plan to spend your time in Tombstone anyway. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The campground itself isn't much, but they were working on water lines to improve them when I visited. The staff more than makes up for what the campground lacks. They are very knowledgable of the area and history of the town! I got a verbal tour of the town when I arrived, and got the low-down on the "must-see" places, which I greatly appreciated. It's very convenient to town as I had my dogs, and walked back a few times during the day to check on them. They ask you to walk your dogs outside the park because they allow tents on the sites too, but I was parked next to a walkway, so it was easy to step outside the fence. I only stayed one night, but got there early on Friday and left around noon on Saturday which was plenty of time to see what I came to see. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very small campground. Sites are close together. Personnel were very friendly and very knowledgeable of the area. The campground is close to downtown Tombstone. There was too much "junk" around the office area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park was suitable for a short term stay. The other reviews about the Wi-Fi are correct. They have problems with the signal making it to the sites, therefore you must be up at the clubhouse to obtain the signal. They offer a free shuttle bus to Tombstone, which is nice so you don't have to find parking. Cable TV was acceptable. Site connections are pretty far from the rigs, hope you have long cords for everything. Staff was very friendly and helpful. This is an older park and the electrical is old too. We had problems obtaining full 30 amps from the power pole. If you want 50 amps, they only have a handful of sites so be sure to book early for them. You do hear quite a bit of road noise as cars speed by. On a positive note, of the few campgrounds in the town of Tombstone, this one appeared the best. If you don't mind driving further from the town, you will find much nicer ones in Benson. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This was one of those disasters at the end of a long journey. We were assigned a space and was unable to pull our travel trailer into it. Our rig is 45' long, truck and trailer. The staff is accommodating, cordial and gave us another space to pull into. The second space was not level, the electric panel too far from the trailer for a hook up. We would have had to make a choice between the water, sewer and electric. We tried the internet and there was no connection to his router yet we could see the antenna from the space. We asked for a refund, which was granted and to be fair, some of the spaces there looked OK but I wouldn't count on the internet in any RV park in Tombstone. Would not stay there again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Rate reflects a weekly rate. The sites in this park are short, but wide enough to park a car beside the motorhome. There are some trees, but they are not large enough for shade. It was fairly quiet despite being close to Highway 80. The laundry was clean and washers and dryers worked well. The park is only about a mile from town, so it's a good base for exploring Tombstone and surrounding areas. TV worked fine, but we were unable to get Wi-Fi at our site. It worked well at the laundry or office. There are quite a few long-term residents, but most sites are neatly kept. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground is in a rural desert setting a mile from town and offers a free shuttle to and from town, but we did not use it. The staff is friendly and helpful. Easy in and easy out, the sites are unpaved natural desert sand and gravel. Toads or tow vehicles must be parked perpendicular to the RVs. I used two tiers of Lynx levelers to level our rig. Good cable TV signal, but only 23 channels. We were able to connect to WIFI at our site close to the main building, but the speed was a little slow. When checking in, the owner advised that the connection may be undependable and some sites have trouble connecting. Sand burs are abundant and will stick in your dog’s paws and your shoes. There is considerable junk piled to the side of the office building. After four days of observation, we concluded that the aging bathrooms are not cleaned every day; in fact, we saw no evidence of their having been cleaned during our stay. By day two, the men’s room was nearly out of toilet tissue and, by day three, the toilet tissue was gone in all four of the men’s stalls and some of the women’s stalls, the liquid soap dispenser in the men’s room remained empty during our stay, a wad of human hair remained on the bottom of a women’s shower stall, some toilet bowls needed brushing to remove human waste residue, soapy scum covered all sides of the paper towel dispenser, and the counter of bathroom sinks had a layer of dust. It is fair to state that toilet tissue was replaced on day four. If the bathrooms are not an issue for you, this place is acceptable while visiting Tombstone, but not for more than a few days. Except for the bathrooms, this place would rate 7. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
I spent a week here exploring Tombstone. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. They even will take you to town and pick you up if you ask. The sites were mostly level and the views were wonderful. I would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Gravel sites are pretty short, and pretty narrow. Free cable works fine; wi-fi doesn't work at all. The person in the office said they "are working on it", but we were here 2 days and no luck so far. Convenient to Tombstone and other tourist sites. Had to complain about unleashed dog yesterday, which is still unleashed this morning. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
There is low monthly pricing, reasonable nightly pricing. Low prices in the general store with no price gouging on food or propane. No size limits or stay time limitations here. Everyone welcome. The grounds have a very durable 50 amp or 30 amp electric service. Our AT&T cell phone worked well in our trailer. No sewer problems or leach smell. The drinking water is excellent and unsurpassed. The free TV cable always worked fine. A Pizza Parlor is on the grounds. There is free shuttle to many places and no party is too big. This place is clean. HOSPITALITY is the best. Anyone posting bad remarks against this park was probably disgruntled campers. The playground could be improved but is accompanied with a safe outdoor pool. As in most campgrounds, I found the internet to work all over the property with a Linksys (WUSB54GC) plug in stick antenna. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Staff was very friendly. Came in after dark and the residents helped us find a spot. Paid next morning. Beautiful views. Would go there again We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This was an nice park. It is close to town so it was easy to run in and out of town. We did not use their shuttle service but it was available. The folks were nice and friendly. My only complaint was that the sites are fairly close together and not very deep. It was a little close for comfort when RV's came in to park. Laundry room was clean. 4 washers and 4 dryers. They advertise WiFi but it does not work. My Verizon air card worked just fine. Propane was on site and easy to obtain. All in all, nice park for the price in this area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This CG was the light at the end of a dark tunnel. We were leaving another CG and called these folks as we reached the main road. We told them we were only a few minutes away. They were closing the office but said they would wait for us and they did. Folks were very helpful and while this park has many tight spaces, we were put into a pull through with plenty of room to pull in and out when leaving. The only downside to this park was the internet. The connection to their router was 4 to 5 bars; the troubles were in their internet provider which turned out to be Hughes. We've had troubles with them in the past at other sites. The first night, as the campers gave up on the net, the Hughes system enabled us to get our email. We woke up early the following morning and at 5 am, the signal was good until around 8 am. After then, it was so slow it was unusable. We enjoyed our time there and spent 2 days going around Tombstone. Would camp there again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
PARK is the key word here. Wells Fargo RVP is a very convenient place to PARK in Tombstone. Its right in town, only 1/2 block from the OK Corral where the historic gunfight took place. But it is not much more than a place to park. The sites are poorly marked and defined. We (2 Motorhomes) had to get the manager to walk to and point out the small sites he expected us to squeeze into. When we got back from watching the reenactment we found they had squeezed a 5th wheel between us so there was only 9 1/2 inches clearance with our slide outs interlocked like a jigsaw puzzle. I can attest that the guy in the 5th wheel is a snorer, but so am I so we're even. If I come back I'd probably stay at the roomier park 1/2 mile away. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Upside - Only a half block from all Tombstone attractions. No need for a car and very close to the O.K. Corral shootout. Downside - Tight spaces, a bit noisy since it is right off the main road. I would stay again, mainly because of the location. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We felt it was overpriced, but on the other hand, we enjoyed staying here and would not have liked to drive into Tombstone both days and find parking. By staying at the Wells Fargo, we never had to think about parking, because all the attractions were right around the corner. We had a really good time here, and the convenience was very important. We have two young children, and we were able to trade off and each go exploring on our own because the campground was so close by. We love shopping for southwestern decoration, and this place was great. The campground itself was a bit lacking, but friendly. I was out walking the dogs and one of the owners came out to warn me about some type of weed that could get painful burrs in my dogs' paws. It seemed a little rundown, but again, the location was perfect. We sat out and cooked out both nights. The church bells across the street are a bit annoying, but only play during normal daytime hours. You can also hear the shooting from the OK Corral reenactment. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is right next door to the OK Corral. You won't have to unhook your toad as everything is within walking distance. The park managers are very friendly and have lots of information about the historical sites around the town. The park is not particularly well landscaped and seems to have permanent "guests" as well as tourists. We found it comfortable and an absolutely great location. A little pricy at $24 per
night, but as they say in the real estate business, location, location, location. We camped here in a camper.

Restroom and laundry facilities are exceptionly well maintained and clean. Sites can be really close together, may have to duck your neighbor's slide when exiting your rig. We camped here in a camper.
