  Great for tent camping!

  Great place for tent camping with a friendly staff and nice amenities. The campground sits on Oak Creek, and is in the perfect location where you are far enough away from Sedona city center to have some peace and quiet, and within an amazing setting of red rocks, tall pines and the sound of a creek surround you. The tent sites are spacious, and offer plenty of privacy. The campground has shower facilities, a small general store where you can get firewood and small groceries, and restrooms. The pit toilets are a bit nasty; I wish they would update them and make them a little cleaner and user-friendly...lol. They can get really disgusting and stink horribly during warmer weather. But the rest of the experience here makes the restrooms the least of the issues. We always stay here when in Sedona.

  Lakeview Campground (Az) — Coconino National Forest Recreation

  Nice respite from the Sonoran Desert heat

  In the off season, this sweet little national forest campground is a quiet oasis in one of the beautiful “islands of the sky” which are scattered throughout Arizona.  Up at 5000 feet, this place becomes a busy retreat for Tucsonians seeking to escape some of the summertime heat, according to the park ranger we spoke too. It's also a haven for birds!

  The campground has designated section for RV’s and tents, though they are same price at just $10 per night.  Many pull-through sites are available for larger RV’s, as well as some back in spots. Each site has a HUGE cement picnic table and fire ring and are a nice size with plenty of space between sites. There are trash cans (though no recycling) throughout the campground, and a water spigot near the very clean pit toilets, thanks to the dedicated and very friendly camp hosts.  The tent sites overlook the Parker Canyon Lake and are quite spacious. There are few tent sites for groups too.

  There is a nice boat dock, as well as small store near the water that sells snacks/drinks, bait, and a few camping necessities.  You can rent kayaks, paddle boats, SUPs, sailboats and small motorized fishing boats…or bring your own. There is also a nice and easy trail that follows the lake shore for about 6 miles, accessible to both hikers and mountain bikers.  From the lake trail, you can also access the Arizona Scenic Trail (the southern terminus is about 15 miles south of the lake). We also saw quite a few fisherman out enjoying the lake during mid-week.

  The closest grocery stores and gas stations are in Sonoita, about 30 miles away.  Cell coverage is limited here as you are very close to the Mexican border – none in RV campground, just a bit of coverage in the tent campground.

  Fort Tuthill Luke AFB Recreation Area

  Fort tuthill county park, may, 2019

  We needed a quick place to tent camp close to flagstaff, AZ and we found this campsite on the Dyrt. We tent camped for one night at a cost of 23.00$. Our site was fine, cell service was good, they only have port-a-potty’s, it they were clean, and had auto lights for night time. The campground sold out while we were there, it seems they have a lot of groups attending this camp. There is an extreme course in the same park, lots of activities. No showers, water is extra, location was great, and the host was nice and accommodating.

  Flagstaff KOA

  Not Tent Friendly

  I went because it was advertised as tent friendly… And even though there are a couple tenting spots, there are not a lot, and the ones they had are overlooking the busy road ahead. If you have a camper or an RV you might like this place. But if you’re tent camping like myself, I’d stay away

  We were pleased to get our family's RV & tent sites adjacent under the pines. Got to set up our new Napier Sportz SUV tent & our Subaru Forester. Wonderful clean bathrooms and warm showers. Pet friendly & warm welcome at check-in.

  KOA Review

  We stayed in a tent site one night while traveling to Grand Canyon. We found the staff to be very friendly and the facilities top notch. We arrived late at night and found all our info in the drop box waiting.. Thanks for the great stay in our tent!

  Chavez Crossing

  Ok

  The camp hosts were great! Toilets and grounds were clean and access to the creek was the high light. The sites are a lot more snug than you’d think with the amount of people they accommodate. It is really set up for tent camping. To right for multiple campers and cars.

  Dead Horse Ranch State Park Campground

  Great campgrounds

  This place has it all. River access, 2 lagoon areas, horseback riding (not affiliated with park), hiking, a playground with a zip line, fishing and Cottonwood is 1 mile away! There are full hook up sites and tent camping plus cabins. I love this state park- camp hosts are helpful.

  Meteor Crater RV Park

  FYI: No fire pits/grills

  Nice looking campground, full facilities. Pulled in for the night after a long day on the road only to realize they have no fire pits or grills. I was tent camping in January, so that was fairly important for me. Lol. They were very kind and helpful and I was able to get a refund.

  Flagstaff KOA

  Very cute campground

  We really liked this place! Great location in Flagstaff, right at the base of Mt Elden, the tent sites have a sectioned off area for the tent and the WiFi worked pretty well. The bathrooms were pretty clean. The only downside was the electrical box was a little too far away from the tent area. Overall we had a good experience.

  Dogtown Lake Campground And Group

  Great home base for Northern AZ

  Dogtown lake, named for the prairie dogs who inhibit the area, is a great little spot tucked away in the forest not far from Williams, AZ on Route 66. This is also a great jumping off point for the Grand Canyon and Bearizona. Perfect little spot for tent camping. Some do get trailers in, but I wouldn’t attempt it. Fun fishing spot and spacious sites.

  Serenity

  I tent camped last minute and it was one of the best stays my entire trip. The sound of the water running down the creek was peaceful and relaxing. The park was clean. At&t service doesn't work down there but they have WiFi available for a fee. Even with the lack of cell service, I highly recommend this location! Great for pets too!

  Ashurst Lake — Coconino National Forest Recreation

  Had a blast out in Flagstaff

  Went climbing out at the Pit in Flagstaff for the day, then we came and camped out not too far away! The site had plenty of trees for hammocks, as well as tent sites. It was easy to access for not just 4x4 vehicles and was a nice and quick drive from the main road.

  Lo Lo Mai Springs Resort

  Our most favorite campground

  LoLoMai is our go-to campground. It has an ideal 2h drive distance, is nestled into the oak creek canyon, and secluded from the road. Kids can roam freely. From sitting in the creek during the summer heat, to exploring the nearby wineries, venturing to the parks, or just sitting by the fire enjoying the cicadas sing, there is something nice for every day. The mix of full hookups, cabins and tent camping allows for every style that you might prefer.

  Grand Canyon-Williams KOA

  Perfectly fine for first time campers

  The campground is exactly what a person would expect from the KOA brand. If you are traveling with a family and it’s your first time tent camping, this will make your experience enjoyable. There is a KOA store but it has business hours. Luckily there is a gas station that is walking distance. Pool and spa were nice. Bathrooms were clean.

  The only downside is the noise from the highway. Oh, cell service is not good. You’ll have to rely on their Wi-Fi.

  Woody Mountain

  When your in a bind on road trip

  This is one of those parks that mostly have RV camping & a few tent sites. There wasn't any availability at other spots since we are floating around in our little RV... the spots aren't too close together, there is shade from pine trees, bathrooms with showers & flushing toilets. Road noise & train noise (we don't mind trains). It's convenient to exploring Flagstaff. Easy hiking trail within park & small dog park.

  Great place! Fun for kids!

  Our kids loved this place. They have RV sites that can accommodate big rigs with full hookups and also a tent camping area. We stayed in the full hookups up area and we had a lot of space between our RV and the one the next to us. We didn’t feel crammed at all. There are lots of trees for shade and very spacious to hang out. Kids rode bikes all over. There’s a store that seeks a bunch of stuff. We were there in June.

  Dead Horse Ranch State Park Campground

  Great facility

  I've camped here twice, once solo in a tent and once in a cabin with my family and dog.

  This facility is clean, quiet (depending on your site neighbors, of course), close to town, and has great amenities.

  The tent sites had decent separation from each other with adequate shrubbery in between.

  The cabin loop is wonderfully private from the rest of the park and a great getaway for anyone looking for some peace and quiet.

  Bathrooms are well maintained, lots of trails, good fishing opportunities in the lagoons.

  Absolutely will camp here again.

  FR 222 Dispersed

  Noise from road but I think it’s a detour from 1-40

  I’m a fan of this spot. It’s within 10 miles from Flagstaff. Good road that doesn’t require 4WD. Plenty of spots for tent camping and also big rigs. My buddy and I both have service with different providers. I will say the traffic from the road is a little loud but I believe there is construction on I-40 which is detouring people along the forest road. Although the traffic is loud, the forests allows you to move further away from the road for a more quiet night. I would definitely stay here again if I’m ever in the area.

  Dead Horse Ranch State Park Campground

  You're not there for the camping

  If the sites had a little more privacy, I'd give five stars. Whenever I take my family, I remind myself I'm not there for the actual tent camping, I'm there for everything else the state park offers. There are about eight small cabins as well. This park offers a much needed break from the Arizona heat in the spring and summer months. The "lakes" are really more like ponds but plenty large enough to fish in as is the Verde River, running through the park. Make sure to go down and take a dip during the warm seasons. They've recently improved the playground for young ones and offer horseback riding as well. Facilities are always clean. If you're tired of camping food, drive down the road to Cottonwood and be sure to visit Larry's Antiques (if you're into that of course).

  Williams-Circle Pines KOA

  Lots of Family Fun!

  We only stayed here one night but my kids begged to go back for the rest of the trip. The tent sites were perfect for what we needed and even had electrical outlets. Showers and facilties were clean and in good condition. My kids loved the bounce pillow and the playground. We also had fun swimming in the pool. There are go carts and some other activities that are paid but we didn’t do any of those because there were so many other free options. Bearizona and the Deer Farm are just minutes away.
