Off Interstate 17 in Arizona's Verde Valley, Distant Drums RV Resort sits on paved roads with concrete sites that accommodate RVs up to 77 feet. The resort operates year-round and provides full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections at each site.
Staff members escort arriving campers to their assigned spots and assist with backing into sites. The grounds feature paved walkways with lighting, landscaped areas with olive trees, and organized rows of sites. Perimeter sites offer desert views, while interior sites tend to be more compact. Taylor D. notes there's a "lovely hiking trail across from the main entrance."
The resort includes a pool, hot tub, fitness room, laundry facilities, and a library area. A dog park provides space for pets, and staff collects trash directly from sites. The adjacent Cliff Castle Casino offers dining and entertainment options, with shuttle service available. Sedona lies about 30 minutes away via scenic mountain roads.
Sites vary in layout and privacy levels. Pull-through sites at the front of the park have smaller yards, while back-in sites in the middle section sit closer together. The property maintains clean restrooms and shower facilities. For those exploring the Camp Verde area, campgrounds near Camp Verde provide additional options for extended stays in the Verde Valley.
