  Windy Hill Campground

  Very pretty, kinda cramped

  Gorgeous location and more spaced out than other campgrounds in the area (we stayed at the first loop). Be aware that if you have Verizon you may have bars but no LTE and that access and senior passes don’t work for double sites - also the host made rude remarks to other campers about my partner and I not being seniors because her access pass (she’s very visibly disabled) showed automatically as “senior” when we paid. Bathrooms are clean but bring your own soap!

  Aspen Campground

  Our adopted second home

  Our first visit here was mid August, and since then we have already returned for Labor Day weekend, and have our 3rd visit scheduled for the beginning of October. Great place for families, good restrooms and plenty of water spickets. The lake is only a minute away as well.

  Clean and Easy to get to

  Look if you want to really camp this is not the place for you. Spots are close together with a fair amount of trees around. Because campsites are close there is some noise but not bad. Some road noise as well and to be expected since you are camping in town. Sites are clean and maintained and full hook ups including sewer, electric and water. I don’t consider this camping because I usually head out into the forest but overall this was good and got me spending time in my camper so all good.

  Knoll Lake Campground

  Great getaway

  The campground host was super cool and pointed out some wildlife to us. It was a neat place to camp. Only drawback was the noisy neighbors.

  Close to the Lake

  Overall great experience camping here. Wife and I tent camped here for 2 nights 3 days. Sucked that we couldn’t have a fire due to a fire state-ban. Close to the highway but not bad on highway noise. Our site was 7 which faces east. Lake is half a mile or so we kayaked so we drove it.

  Good Grounds

  The site was lovely we got one that made it so you did not feel in top of your neighbors. The bathrooms are externally well kept. The host are very friendly and helpful. You are a short walk from the lake and a few other trails. The general store is reasonably priced if you forget something. The sites are rocky so be sure to check that the site will work for your tent first. They will not accept your National Parks pass and give you the discount so I knocked off a star for that.

  Decent campground, few amenities, in the middle of nowhere

  Enjoyed three nights and generally had the place to ourselves excluding the host. The host was very nice. The fee station was out of order during our stay, so we paid via daily tickets at a place in Globe on our way out. The campground is right off the highway so there was a fair amount of traffic noise, but not unbearable. Little to do in the way of hikes within walking distance, but we enjoyed walking around the campground and into the woods to the north and east. Verizon service was great the entire time. Sites are well maintained and level. Vault toilets were clean. Each site has a steel fire ring and grate as well as a nice metal picnic table. There a a few group areas with full grills and communal tables. The campground appears fairly new.

  Very nice but a little close

  The camp spots are close enough to see all your neighbors but far enough that you couldn't hear all their conversations. It was a well maintained camp ground and the hosts were very nice. Its also very close to Woods Canyon Lake which is nice.

  I backpacked there starting from the 260 trail head. It was about 4 hours of hiking. And worth it

  Payson Campground & RV Resort

  Not what I was expecting.

  Well I felt a bit deceived by the website… it said there was a basketball court, a dog park, and a playground but honestly they are the saddest excuses of any of those things I have ever seen. The pool is very nice, if not a bit cold and seating is limited. Bathrooms/ showers are very clean. Getting in and out is pretty crazy as you’re on a steep hill. The weather was nice but I was looking for a more family friendly campground and this was not it. Great as a stop on your way somewhere maybe but not a good weekend getaway unless you have stuff in town to see or do.

  Good little spot close to town.

  Very clean and well kept. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Good mix of "parking lot" style camping and secluded sites. Even the cheap lot camping had good space between trailers.

  Woodsy and Clean

  Beautiful campground with great weather! These are drive up campsites with great hosts. There was a nicely cleaned out fire ring and a good size flat ground area for our 4p tent. The campsites were a little close at times and was noisey after quiet hours but not after midnight which was good. At our site we were down wind from the restrooms so we would catch a smell at time but, it was a short hike to the spillway and follow that to the lake which you could rent boats and skip rocks.  Very woodsy and a nice cool night perfect for a fire.

  Aspen Campground

  Great Tent Camping

  Campsites have a decent amount of space. We had to 10 person tents, 210 x 10 foot canopies, plenty of area around the fire pit as well as space have horseshoes and cornhole set up. Maybe we got lucky with our site location but it definitely worked out well! The forest service staff that maintained the campgrounds were also very friendly.

  It was $7 to dump trailer waste, $3 for Porta-Potty waste.

  From our view, if you have a trailer more than 20 ft the spaces do get small for parking as you can only park on the asphalt near the campsite. We saw others make it work but it was a tight squeeze depending on vehicle / trailer size.

  Beautiful campground

  Great setting on the lake. Hardworking helpful host team keeps the grounds and toilets immaculate. Lake is lovely. Early morning access before day use crowds come is great for quiet early morning kayak or SUP use.

  Second Campground

  Quiet camp sites.

  With your permit to hike Cibecue Falls it gives you one night of camping at the camp ground. There is no power or water. They do have a bathroom. It does make for a relaxing night after a short hike to the falls. The road back is a dirt road with a cliff on one side. Saw cars back there so not a bad road. Also there is no cell service.

  Windy Hill Campground

  50/50

  For every good thing there was a bad. We stayed at Coyote Loop. You can’t fish from the shore because all the dead trees that go out about 10 feet along the entire shore (awesome if you have a boat; I guess). I expected lots of generators and the sound that it makes, myself included. I didn’t expect three campsites to be taken up by the same group of people and here F-bombs all night till 10 o’clock. Then people turn high power lamps on you and everyone for long periods of time because they can afford expensive toys but not a simple flashlight. It was peaceful at 10:00pm and we could hear the lake wildlife. Maybe not a good place to take children. There seem to be one super secret place to dump your trailer water, grey & black. While you can dump there for free; you cannot find it without a treasure map, a devining rod, and a map of the stars. Don’t bother asking the site Camp Host because his directions were equally as cryptic; if you can find them at all. I and to wait to get home and map it so here it is:

  Not our type of place, too many generators!

  I’m sure that for some, this is their favorite camping area, someplace to return to each and every spring with the family. It has everything one needs to get away from the valley, and out onto the lake for some motorized boating. 

  The smallish spaced campsites are perfect for getting together with friends, yet large enough to accommodate big RV’s. As a plus, the noise of generators from every other campsite, means that if your group gets a little loud nobody will likely notice. Despite the area’s abundance of sunshine, making it perfect to run your camping rig on solar, this place takes the prize for the most generator impacted site that we’ve ever stayed in our lifetimes, which is saying something.  If you like that sort of thing, or can’t hear, this is your place and these are your people. I went for a 45-minute walk around the campground, and counted 13 different generators all going at different frequencies. It was not unlike a walk in a pleasant park while the maintenance staff gather all the leaves with the power of multiple leaf blowers. Despite this trend to all things big and gas-powered, the area is indeed lovely. 

  We enjoyed a splendid paddle out on the water near sundown, after many power boats were already back up on their trailers. Across the road, lies the Tonto National Monument which shows off some terrific examples of early Puebloan cliff dwellings. The mountains surrounding the area are stunning, and there are some fantastic hiking trails in the area. 

  The closest stores can be found at the either ends of the lake, a gas station and Marina store/ restaurant. Their selection is low and inversely proportional to the prices. Within 30 minutes to the north and south, respectively, lie the towns of Payson, and Globe where you can find any kind of supplies you need without the price gouging.

  Boaters Paradise

  Hot showers, clean bathrooms, boat ramps, and fishing docks. Depending on the time of year it can be rowdy and crowded. Week days are relaxing and quiet. It’s named windy hill for a reason. Stake everything by down well and don’t leave shade pop up tents up while you’re out, they might be gone to the wind when you get back.

  Immaculate, Quiet and a Great Host -Good Tent Sites!

  My friends and I stopped for an overnight on a motorcycle adventure in late March 2021.  We camped in the Coati Loop on the eastern end of the CG across from the restroom with flush toilets and sink.  Each site has a picnic table and shade ramada (canopy).  A water spigot was nearby with great water.

  We were fortunate to have inherited a host named Larry who was there for a few months because Covid prevented him from traveling to Europe.  He built walls, planted drought tolerant plants and raked the campsites each night.   I have never been a better tended campground in my life!

  Convenient but loud and cramped

  This spot really is nice. It’s right in town so if you need anything it’s walking distance full hookups and room for some pretty large rigs. Since you are in town you can hear the traffic and the spots are packed pretty close to each other

  Knoll Lake Campground

  Great Fall Camping

  I tent camped right near the lake with a larger group of people. While exploring the area, I discovered many camp areas that were perfect for larger groups. The area we were in is all primitive. No water, electric or toilets. This is a pack in and pack out area. Unfortunately, not all abide to this rule as evidenced by the litter shrewn throughout the areas. So, if you go..please be a good environment steward and take all you waste and trash with you..perhaps even clean up some left behind by others.. We did!
