Coyote Howls WEST RV Park in Why, Arizona
We stayed at the CoyoteHowls WEST RV park for one night on February 18, 2017. We were on our way from Phoenix to Tucson and chose this RV park for its proximity to Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. We arrived at the campground at 1pm and the camp host was helpful and friendly in setting us up with a site.
The RV park had a natural feel in a good way. There were plenty of palm trees, shrubs and tall grass around the park and in between sites, providing a good separation between sites. We were at site 29 and our 24 foot travel trailer and truck (detached and parked sideways) fit in with no problem. The park is quite close to the main road, but you can barely notice the car noise. Overall the RV park was very quiet, including at night.

Internet / Wifi connection speed
In the evening at 7pm we attempted to measure the WiFi connection speed, however at that time the WiFi was flaky and the Speedtest app could not even make a measurement. The next morning it fared much better; here are internet speed test results taken at 8am on Sunday, February 19, 2017.

Justin's Diamond J RV Park in Tucson, Arizona
We stayed at Justin's Diamond J RV park for one night on Feb 19, 2017 to explore the nearby Saguaro National Park. This park seems to be catered towards longer term stay as it has lots of activities, for example mini-golf, bocce ball and walking trails that start right off the RV park. The sites were reasonably large, though there wasn't much vegetation to separate the sites. We were at site 39 and our 24 foot trailer and truck fit fine. When we stayed here in February the park was packed, but it was still quiet at night. [...]

The RV Park by itself was quite quiet, however there are train tracks nearby. There were trains going through the night and they make really loud noises that did wake us up several times. [...]
