About
Our 1.1 acre lot with our home is in a rural neighborhood that does not have any HOA. Our neighbors are a mix of manufactured homes and site built homes on 1 to 4 acre lots. We are located 25 miles East of Tucson city limits and 5 miles West of Benson city limits. You can access most tourist attractions in Tucson within 45 minutes of our home. We are located approx. 2.5 miles from I-10. You can easily access Tombstone, Bisbee, and Sierra Vista from our home too. There is a Dollar General (Mescal side) and Chevron (overpriced) gas station at our exit. You have to travel a minimum of 10 miles to the closest Walmart. Boondockers Welcome sets a 5 night maximum, but you can request a longer stay. We are located in Pima County which does not allow people to live in an RV for long periods of time, so less than 4 month visitors are welcome. The RV parking spot is right next to our home with a 50 AMP hook up. We are on well water and septic system. We can allow hookups, but ask that boondockers be mindful that we are sharing our water and that it is a septic system. We prefer there not be harsh chemicals used and septic safe toilet paper only, please. The spot is next to our home between our water well house and a tree. It is best to plan on arriving BEFORE dark so you can back into the spot without damaging your RV on the tree or well house. Hopefully you are really good at backing up since it is NOT a pull through spot. We have 3 dogs on our property. Dogs bark, roosters that crow and there is a train track in the distance that you can hear all hours of the day. It usually is very quiet at night (other than the train approx. 3 miles away) though with great views of the stars. There is a large herd of deer (tick carriers) that travel across our property between the houses, so be aware of that if you have pets. Our dogs bark too so we try to keep them inside from 10 PM until 6 AM (approx. after sunrise). Please DO NOT touch, pet or feed the horses or dogs. They are animals and can be unpredictable. It is a pseudo rural location with wildlife, insects and prickly plants, be aware this is not a resort, but our home. Happy trails! Suggested Local Attractions: Ideal location in Southern Arizona right off the Interstate with Tucson located 30-45 minutes West on I-10 and Benson is located 10 minutes East on I-10. The free Benson Visitor Center is worth the stop and with free parking. Kartchner Caverns State Park with Apache Peak is located East less than a 20 minute drive away. Pima Air & Space Museum is located 33 miles away and only a 30 minute drive West. Sierra Vista OR Tombstone is 45 minutes Southeast. Bisbee is just 60 miles from our home. So you can visit some of the best tourist attractions in Southern Arizona here in 3-5 days depending on your pace.
