About
Kartchner Caverns State Park has 4 camping cabins, sleeping up to 6 people. Each two-room cabin has a queen bed and two twin bunk beds, sleeping up to six people, plus a microwave and mini-fridge (there's no stove or full kitchen - cooking isn't permitted in the cabins). Restrooms and showers are a short walk away, and you'll need to bring your own linens or sleeping bags. 2 of the 4 cabins (numbers 3 and 4) allow pets for a $10 fee, limit two; the other 2 don't - ask for a pet-friendly cabin when booking.
Fees
$129/night for this park's 4 west-facing cabins. Plus a $5 non-refundable reservation fee per cabin and a refundable $50 cleaning deposit collected when you book. A $15/night fee applies if you bring a second vehicle, per Arizona State Parks' statewide reservation policy.
Kartchner Caverns State Park's own cabins page publishes no season, closure, or year-round statement of any kind - a real gap, not an unresearched one. Cabins do have heat and air conditioning per that same page. Call the park directly to confirm winter availability before planning a trip.
