Putt-Putt Golf and endless desert hiking

28 Feb, 2018; Tucson, AZ



Justin's Diamond J RV Park


A new experience for me, I've been staying in an RV Park SW of Tucson - it butts up against Tucson Mountain Park and Saguaro National Park.  That means an endless number of nice desert hikes directly in back of the park!




There are actually 2 RV Parks right next to each other - lots of snowbirds migrate to them both for the winter season.  I could only get their 'boondocking' sites at the entrance to the park.




Less than 2 miles away was an area of BLM land for free boondocking (SW corner of Hwy 86 and San Joaquin Road) with space for 30 - 40 RV's of any size.


Putt-Putt Golf Course


In a central common area, there was a min-golf course, complete with balls and a selection of antique putters, a pond with koi, and pretty nice landscaping.




The front 9 was in real need of some renovation!







Lots of great landscaping

The back 9 was in a lot better shape.  Maybe the snowbirders can't do a whole course anymore!  That thought was reinforced by one hole you could play sitting on a bench.






Nice pond with a fountain.





Kind of a quaint place with really nice folks managing it.  I really liked the access to trails so close.




The frequent seating options continued to play out on the trails close to the RV parks.

These chairs have been here for awhile!

These newer ones look like one could actually sit on them
