Maricopa County Parks

Who's ready to enjoy a free night's stay in one of Maricopa County's regional parks?

Starting October 1, the Maricopa County Parks and Recreation

Department is bringing back its popular Buy One, Get One camping promotion! The promotion allows park visitors who pay the camping fee for one night, or more, at a participating desert mountain county park to receive one night of equal or lesser value for free during that same stay.

"This Buy One, Get One camping promotion allows our residents to enjoy the recreation of some of our most beautiful parks at a price that families can afford," said Chairman Bill Gates, District 3. "There is no better place to staycation and enjoy quality time with your family."

"As prices continue to rise on goods and services, our agency agrees it is more important than ever to continue the Buy One, Get One campaign this fall. With the evening temperatures starting to cool down, everyone is eager to return to the outdoors and enjoy time with their family and friends. The Buy One, Get One promotion allows visitors to extend their stay an additional night on us so they can continue to enjoy quality time with their loved ones," said R.J. Cardin, Maricopa County Parks and Recreation Director.

To book a camping reservation and receive a free night, contact the parks at (602) 506-2930 or book your reservation online at maricopacountyparks.org. The promotion is valid for stays booked between October 1 and November 10, 2022.
