    Its free,

    Dirt lot, good for Rv's. Super windy and the grounds too hard for tent stakes, a single tree in the middle. Its a place to sleep. Portapotties available

    Great location easy access

    Very easy to stop by when we where om the road and just needed a place to sleep. Open fields gave a nice view. Very close to the highway so easy to stop and continue our journey. Stayed in an rv, so the level surface was nice.

    All in all good place to stay for the night.

    Pine Flat Campground West

    Easy creek side access in the cool pines

    We made an impromptu trip to escape the heat and unwind. We were grateful the stars aligned and snagged a FF spot! The sites are spacious and very well kept. Yes, you are right next to 89 regardless, but it worked fine for us. The creek is easily accessible and walking distance to a trail head as well. Firewood and ice are available on-site and the camp hosts graciously drop it off at your site. It is a quiet campground and to note is that music is not allowed. 

    Afternoon rain in the canyon is such a treat and we couldn't have ordered it!

    Stopped here to overnight. Beautiful forest with a lot of camp sites. We found one with no problem and it was clean and well kept. We stayed the night , went to the lava tube (just North of where we camped). Great free sites.

    Village Camp Flagstaff

    An experience in itself!

    RV or tiny homes…this place is AMAZING. We were in the RV side very clean, level elite back in with a concrete patio. Picnic table AND propane fire pit provided. The clubhouse has a bar and grill with a GIANT patio, live music, a store, heated pool and spa, a large game lawn and trails behind. Backs up to a national forest. Bathrooms and laundry clean and convenient. Well organized and friendly staff. Cons: trains in the distance and some interstate noise but that’s to be expected. The camp is NOT right up on the interstate you just can see it from various sections of the camp. We only had one neighbor at our site since it was on the end which was nice. Would DEFINITELY stay again.

    Beaverhead Flats Road Dispersed Camping

    got the whole desert to myself!!

    beautiful views! super duper underrated and conveniently close to sedona access: 3stars (for my car, yours will do way better lmao) easy to find on the map! not a difficult road (at first), but gravelly for sure. i drive a 1995 ford f150 2 wheel drive and found that after 2-3 miles in, the road up to the overlook becomes too steep and rocky for my truck to climb, but a 4x4 definitely can do it! if u have a car like mine take it nice and slow and you will do just fine :3 business/safety/people: 5stars! not a SINGLE other camper here and i arrived on a friday night! its like i have the whole desert to myself. all you hear are crickets and very very distant highway sounds. maybe its because i came in early september but this is by far the most quiet of blms ive ever been to sites: sites are easy to back in and most come with rock firepits! in the site im at, people left piles of firewood close to the pit which was an amazing help bc i arrived so late

    the only con that i can think of is that there r a lot of bugs (ants and moths especially), which doesnt bother me at all but for some it could be a little annoying. if you have full cover (tent, rv, camper, van, etc) then do not worry at all, but i camp in the bed of my truck so its a lil different for me.

    if u want solitude come check this place out !

    Great atmosphere Great vibes

    Tried this place on a whim. Lots of people pass by here but it has such a cozy homey feel we ended up loving it and extended our stay from one night to two nights. Lots of forest roads to play on near by as well if you have off-road toys.

    Kaibab National Forest Kaibab Lake Campground

    Very nice pine forest with well spaced sites

    Addendum: very annoying meat eating bees invaded while cooking dinner. Had to walk around to avoid bee entering mouth while eating. And putting away washed dishes was a challenge to keep none from entering storage bag. Otherwise the ospreys were awesome. In site B19 mid week just after Labor Day. It is quiet. Many if not most sites in B loop are reserved for tonight and following nights. Osprey, raven, great blue heron and other birds near the lake. Lake is down about 10 feet from high water mark. No swimming, just fishing and paddle craft. Sites are fairly level and paved. Distance between sites is about 100 feet in fairly dense pine forest. Outhouses are clean. Drinking water spigots. About mid 80 degree temperature. Very nice compared to the 110 deg F we had driving here from California. Has boat launch ramp, fishing dock, amphitheater. Just a couple of miles from I40.

    very busy but very fun and friendly

    the entrance is a rocky uphill climb but my 30 year old truck did just fine, very busy and very noisy, sooooo many big families here with big rigs and blasting music but tbh i dont mind (it made me jealous, wish i had a big family😭) lots of atvs here too and you’ll have to drive a good bit to find a spot but its a fairly easy drive and beautiful views

    Easy spot to access

    Went down here mid August and it was a beautiful view. Thick tree coverage which hid us from the winds that day / night and the rim was a 200 foot walk away. Able to get there in my Chevy Trax which is front wheel drive only, without any problems. There are there are plenty of spot to pull off into on that forest road. If you don’t get this exact spot just keep driving the road and you’ll find something in no time. A lot of dead trees laying around for firewood, but did need axe and hacksaw to cut size them down. Area had a lot of pine needles on the ground.

    Not a bad spot for the night

    Stayed here one night. It’s relatively nice to be so close to 40. The road is a dirt road, so just making sure that’s listed. I parked relatively close to the highway (there’s about 15 campsites) so there was a lot of highway noise, one of the only reasons I’m giving 4 star. If you drive further back there are more secluded spots that might have less noise… wouldn’t recommend driving too far back if you have a big rig. Road may be muddy if there’s been a lot of rain, but it was very well maintained while we visited. Camping up to 14 days is permitted.

    A wonderful spot that is secluded and away from the busy FR300 traffic. 8 miles off of Hwy 87. There are no services but close to Kehl Springs Campground where there are restrooms.

    There is no cell service but close to the Rim where you have service.

    I drove to the very top and ended up veering off to the left. There were several spots tucked in on the rim where I could just look down into the valley. It was beautiful. I was not bothered.

    Pinegrove Campground

    Good, not great

    Very clean and very nice camp hosts. The bugs were super intense. We didn’t have a screened in “porch” and it was brutal. Maybe it was just the time of year, I don’t know. But we came from 2 days in Strawberry and didn’t have anywhere near the bug problem.

    Lots of people. Pretty typical amount of people, but still lots of people as the places was at capacity.

    The free dump was good. ( with paid visit ).

    Wasn’t quite cool enough to fully enjoy with air conditioning. It’s Arizona so it’s to be expected. Our high was roughly 88-89. Which was just on the cusp of too hot to not have A/C when hanging out at camp. Coupled with the insane amount of bugs/nats. It just wasn’t a 5 experience.

    Lastly, on the way there, there are a TON of boondocking spots. I wouldn’t hesitate to go back in that area to boondocking.

    Lake Mary was a fun day for the family. But know that Ashurst lake across the street is for boat fishing. We drive the entire perimeter and there was nowhere to pop up a tent and fish from shore comfortably.
