Campers regularly cited the quiet, peaceful atmosphere and functional boat access as key strengths. Common feedback included concerns about overgrown sites and limited facility maintenance, though the free camping compensates for basic conditions.

Not maintained

It is definitely a formal campsite but isn’t maintained, at least at this time of year but it is free. A lot of sites were overgrown and the vault toilets in the camping loops were locked but the one closer to the boat launch was open. Personally that’s not a negative as we’re self contained and it was easy to access and quiet and had a bit of signal. The lake was really low but we weren’t here for water sports. Beautiful dark night sky We stayed two peaceful nights.

Excellent boat ramp

This review is for the boat ramp just past the camping area on the road. While the camping area shows signs of neglect. Thw boat rampnis fully functional. Remember to get your tonto water use sticker first ($4) as the ramp is unmanned.

Not exactly close to the lake.

Quiet. Only a few campers in May, many longer term. The sites are pretty run down / overgrown and nothing is offered but great for the price! Good if you have a small watercraft as there is a ramp close by.

Popular if you have a water craft of any kind

I went at the end of February, the days were warm but the nights were chilly! So bring jackets! We found a camp site that was as secluded as we could get in the area. Right next to a road but traffic normally was inactive between 8pm-7am. Less than a quarter of a mile walk to the lake. Nice people nice camp ground, but mostly meant for people who haul campers and boats
