About
Cypress Park Campground was historically a primitive camping area situated high in the Chiricahua Mountains within the Coronado National Forest. The campground was nestled along Rucker Creek among a stand of exceptionally large Arizona cypress trees, which gave the site its distinctive character. The campground is no longer listed as an active recreation site by the USFS. Current Coronado National Forest campground listings do not include Cypress Park, and the official USFS database indicates the site no longer exists. Visitors seeking camping in the Rucker Canyon area should consider Walnut Grove Campground, which is the only currently listed campground in that portion of the forest.
