Great place

My boyfriend and I stayed 1 night here with our dog and we loved it. The sites are well spread out so each camp has privacy. We will definitely be back!

Perhaps the nicest campground in AZ!

I ended up staying here a couple of nights and it's beautiful!  Stay was in September and the weather was beautiful. Trees cover almost everything, there is a little creek, and plenty of opportunities to go exploring on hikes. Loved it!

Well maintained remote mountaintop

Hiking and views for days. Clean vaulted toilets and well maintained site. Each site has a table and fire ring as well as parking for one, sometimes two vehicles. Plenty of tree coverage to slow the occasional chilly breeze that crept up on us. 4x4 or all-wheel drive recommended but on a dry day with a well maintained grade a crossover had no problem with the ascent.

All in all a wonderful three night stay with the entire campground to ourselves! I would assume this is a popular place in warmer weather times. And I'll be back!
