With all respect to my good friend Clifford, RV's up to 40' are permitted at Organ Pipe. However, there are no hookups. We enjoyed our stay there:

Sean, I corrected it there is one area where only tents are permitted.
I drove my Jeep into that area once never again they were not happy campers LOL but some hookups are available at Ajo.
I stayed in the rest area across the hiway for 2 days

good luck

Great place be sure to go. Take the tours, don't drive your own vehicle back in the back country They have park ranger programs in the eve, very informative.
