Solid campground in Arizona. Like many campgrounds there are some great sites and some very close to each other. But awesome spot north of Sedona and south of Flagstaff. There is easy creek access that is accessible for children. They have showers for $8 for 8 minutes, firewood for $10, and a small store for ice and stuff. I noticed the staff did a great job of cleaning each site and the restrooms... Solid campground in Arizona. Like many campgrounds there are some great sites and some very close to each other.

Nice sites. I stayed in b3 because it has plenty of sun for my solar panel. It is right next to the vault toilets which are smelly, but I only noticed it sometimes. Went to get a shower token at the office and the showers are now $8. Just fyi as what I had seen elsewhere online indicated they were $4. This campground is 30 minutes from Sedona.

This is a beautiful area and we were excited to stay and do some hiking. Unfortunately, we found the sites very narrow, close together, and we could barely fit our van/casita combo. Also, stay away from site A3, 4, 5 unless you enjoy the smell of the vault toilets and dumpster. We were there in late October so I can’t imagine the smell in summer.

Other problems include the lack of hook-ups, lack of a dump station, and the poor condition of the road in the campground. $8 shower, $10 firewood.

I spent two nights at this very green oasis in Sedona. The abundance of shade provided by the pines and the nearby creek was particularly enjoyable. However, I found the $8 showers and the pit toilets to be quite inconvenient. I had no negative experiences with the camp hosts, who promptly checked me in upon my arrival. Lots of families are here, and for the most part, quiet times were adhered... I spent two nights at this very green oasis in Sedona.

Also, be aware that there are no grocery stores nor anywhere to dine out nearby. I would probably stay here again but away from the loop near the road as the trees do not do a good job at insulating the vehicle noise.

I really don’t understand how people can leave this campground a 5 star review. It’s awful! The sites are small, unlevel and jammed together. There’s only a narrow single lane road around the loop. They have placed large rocks very close to the road making it exceptionally hard to maneuver a camper of any length. The biggest turn off is the large dumpster trash cans that are all over the road.

There’s only a narrow single lane road around the loop. They have placed large rocks very close to the road making it exceptionally hard to maneuver a camper of any length. The biggest turn off is the large dumpster trash cans that are all over the road. The entire place reeks of the smell of trash and nasty vault toilets! To add to the misery you are right beside the very busy Hwy 89A going to Sedona so you get to listen to traffic, beating stereos and motorcycles! At least during our stay the campground wasn’t busy. When this place is full I can imagine it would be even more miserable!
