Tent camped here for 4 nights. Campground was not very busy, only had site neighbors for one night despite being on the waterfront. Lots of activities (boating, biking, fishing, natureviewing, Tombstone, Mexico, etc). Mild temperatures made the water in the lake brisk but refreshing. Volunteers staff the nature center and offer guided boat tours that I'd reccommend. We were not... More

Patagonia Lake is a beautiful spot all on its own, but couple that with the fact that it's in a DESERT makes it fantastic for birds and other wildlife. As we drove in, we saw deer grazing; at the lake, we found birds aplenty in the parking lot & more as we moved onto the boardwalk next to the lake... More

We spent a night tenting here and it left a very bad impression of AZ State Parks. Little shade, rock hard tenting sites (we had to pile rocks on tent corners to prevent the tents from blowing away), and noise late into the night including a loudly cursing woman. Way overpriced and unpleasant.

We spent a couple hours near the beach, watching the water and the birds wheeling overhead. The facilities are well maintained and there are nice picnic areas.

Far too busy for water sport on Easter weekend, but the birds are fascinating, even to non-birders like us.

After a 4 day 3 night stay . ...ready to take on the week. A very clean camp ground on lake Patagonia. Just about all camp sites have water and electric hook ups. There is a main bathroom with showers by the beach swim area . The staff keeps the entire place very clean. Overall a very nice and relaxing... More

This state park is a beautiful surprise: a long, narrow man-made lake tucked into a bowl of high desert mountains. The lake has good fishing, several pretty coves & 12 boat-in campsites available by reservation. There are 3 smallish campground loops, all electrified, with water but no sewer (there is a dump station). Small store, marina with different types of... More

This is a great little corner of Arizona, and not too far from the Tucson travel hub. We spent the morning here, had lunch in Patagonia, and then went to the Nature Conservancy property nearby (both reviewed separately). The state park has plenty of parking, a little general store for supplies, and many campsites and RV slots for rent, though... More

Beautiful lake. Boats for rent. Store with supplies. Birding boat rides in the winter/spring season (sign up in advance). Overnight campsites and RV sites. Tons of birders hunting the elusive rare birds. Nice gift shop/supply store. Just a great place.
