Forest Road 689 - Dispersed Site

Eh. Fine for just a quick overnight if just passing through, I guess. A bit crowded, overrun, and quite a few RVs that look like they stay as long as they can. Lots of broken glass and some trash, at least where we stayed. I personally wouldn't stay in this area again due to how popular the road seems, but it is convenient if you're looking for somewhere free and close to Sedona.

It did exactly what we wanted. Quiet, private, and a ba-jillion stars. We pulled a 16ft trailer with out issue. And by we, I mean my husband :)

Keep driving down the road and space will open up wider. We parked right past the little grate after you get to the more open space. Quite a few others but we weren’t looking for too much room or privacy. Got there right at sunset.

So this spot was only about 25 minutes from Sedona and it was pretty great. You could hear the hum of I17 but not loud at all. Road was well maintained and the spots had fire pits. Lots of flies buzzing around but nothing biting

Awesome sites. Good spot to crash before heading into Sedona. No firewood around. Beautiful skies.

Plenty of spots the deeper you go. Only need 4 x 4 if you go off trail. Lots of biting bugs at night.

Good spot, recommend bringing some firewood, but overall very nice. There was definitely some trash left behind so remember to pack out.

We had enough privacy and enjoyed our time!

The location was very easy to get to off of the freeway but still had pretty views. There are two spots to park at within reason. It is not meant for anything larger than a camper van though. The spot is not level though if that matters. You can be hidden from view of the road but you do hear traffic if there is anyone driving by.

Great place to stop for a few nights. There are only a few campsites at this location. There are more further up the road, easy access.

Dirt road to a couple campsites. There are only a few sites where the GPS takes you, but if you continue on there are lots of spots further down the road. Seems like a popular spot, but plenty of places to set up. Very quiet unless you get noisy neighbors. Oh yeah, and great views!

Spots here 14 days, rangers will take down your license and take a pic. Close to Sedona... very clean and quiet

Great location close to Sedona. Lots of spots. Rangers will ck in and take a pic of your license. Big rig friendly. Closest water in I17 at the rest stop.

We arrived in the dark. It was super easy to locate, access and navigate. The forest road was also really tame, no need for 4x4. There were a few people camping in spots at the entrance. Beyond that I saw one car pulled off the side of the gravel road camping and one other in the distance when I woke up the next morning.

Spots here and there along the road. We picked a spot with a parking spot under a tree, a bit on a hill but the shade was worth it. Pack it in\out. Not much to do.

Easy to find. Kept going after all sites were taken and still found a place to pull off. Good views. Sedan ok.

Had to go a little further than the last "tent" on the app, but found a nice, quiet pullout.

This was such a great stop between Phoenix and Sedona! It was so peaceful at night and the stars were insane! In the morning we did a short hike down to a river bed and saw some petroglyphs. Just an amazing experience all around

Great area we camped here for a night not too far away from road or gas station, still had phone service but had great views and a nice layout for our camp. We only had two cars but can fit more. Did get chilly at night but did not see any animals.

semi quiet at 430pm...a few cars have gone by..road is a wash board but not that bad. Level for the most part and not tire rutted so your not rocking back and fourth in an RV. but pull offs are small from what I've seen though I'm less then a mile down the road...I started getting that nervous feeling when the road narrows and I can't find a decent place to turn around. Nothing spectacular thus far. Views are nice.

Great and easy place to stay of you are headed to Sedona from the Phoenix area. It wasn't too far off course and we had the whole place to ourselves. We didn't see it hear another car the entire evening and night.
