Safford Vacations, Tourism & Travel Information

Our Take on Safford, Arizona

Recognize the name?  Safford, along with being the setting for the movie Lost in America, is also a bustling city surrounded by lush, green scenery and Mt. Graham, a popular destination for many adventurous visitors during the summer.  Thousands of people flock to Mt. Graham each year for romantic and family-oriented outings, and their main stay is Safford. 

Besides visiting Mt. Graham, which should be your first stop (with or without your kids), there are numerous other kid-friendly sites in Safford, including Discovery Park.  At Discovery Park kids will learn about science as they walk through the Hall of Science and other scientific creations in this park.  Adults are always welcome to join in also.  Safford is surrounded by many natural attractions your kids will love also, including the Safford Morence Trail, only a short drive from downtown Safford.  Adults should check out the golf courses nearby, as they are the best in Arizona.  Looking for romantic options?  Take the trail alone or hike Mt. Graham with a loved one.  Check out the locally-owned restaurants in town for a romantic touch.  Instead of heading in town for romantic lodging, head outside of town for cheaper (but comfortable) lodging.  Still not satisfied?  Get more information from Safford's site, where you can learn more about lodging, romantic attractions, kid friendly features, and other vacation spots around Safford.
