Campgrounds open in May in Arizona (2027)

24 Arizona campgrounds have an official season that covers at least part of May 2027 (20 open year-round, 20 open the whole month). Dates come from Forest Service, National Park Service, BLM and Recreation.gov pages and calendars, plus corrections we verified. Campgrounds with no published season are not counted; they are listed at the bottom. Where only a reopening date has been published (the following closing date isn't out yet), a campground is listed for its opening month only.
