Once again Arizona does not fail us. The price was amazing at $14 a night.
poor depending on site you choose (avoid the ones in the dips/valleys if its a concern for you)
No facilities, just good ol’ convenient Arizona
We had our two dogs with us and just kept them on the leash so we had no negative cactus experiences...
$51 - $66 / night
The trail behind the campground was wide and clear and easy to walk with the dogs. The spots are private with lots of green in between.
$20 - $60 / night
The forest was closed in Northern Arizona so I decided to camp out at Dead Horse Ranch SP. I was pretty pleased overall with my trip.
$18 - $36 / night
The care takers make cofffe each morning and give dogs treats while doing rounds. The lake is clean and kids were swimming.
We keep a boat at Lake Pleasant and are part of the Arizona Yacht Club so we are up here all the time.
We love heading up to Crown King! For dispersed camping, this place is top notch.
$45 - $85 / night
Reaching Arizona I found that was not an option. So tired with a lot of miles on o stumbled upon this oasis.
ScoutNice open campsite approximately 2 miles from Crown King on Senators Hwy. Lovely forest with boulders and views. One of my very favorite camps.
GuideGorgeous easy dirt road ~27 miles from i17/Bumble bee. (There’s also a much more difficult trail from lake pleasant that requires very experienced off-roading 4x4). Great food and drinks(alcohol) at the crown king saloon and Mimi’s Cafe. There are amazing camping areas just past the main town, and even all the way up near Horsetheif Basin which is about 7 miles past crown king(requires 4x4). There is also an amazing ~30 mile trail from crown king that leads all the way to Prescott called Senator Highway. This also requires experienced 4x4 and like the trail to Horsetheif basin, there are many areas that are only single vehicle width. Amazing weather all year round, but extremely limited travel available while snow is on the ground.
GuideLocated right when you enter the town of Crown King, beautiful wooded areas
ScoutCrown king has been an amazing destination for my family for years....
Love this place..
GuideSecluded dispersed camping in the woods just outside of the town Crown King. 4x4 is recommended, campsites are not accessible when snowfall has occurred. Beautiful wildlife including deer always nearby.
GuideThis majestic spot is roughly ~26 miles (from Bumble Bee) of bumpy dirt roads, steep terrain, switchbacks, and the occasional one vehicle bridge. The main city of Crown King has a general store with essentials and a 1 pump fuel station. Prices are steep so best advised to fill up on gas and supplies before heading up. The Hazlitt Hollow campground and Horse Thief Basin Lake are ~7 miles from the main city of Crown King and definitely require a high clearance vehicle (4x4 highly recommended). Horse Thief Lake is truly a magical place and beyond serene. The lake fish species present include Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Channel Catfish, and Muskie. The weather is very similar to Prescott with an elevation of 6,000 ft. Peaceful, quiet, serene, and soothing all describe this area perfectly.
TravelerThisis a great campground for your fourwheelers or sidexside , the campground sits along side a great dirt road that will take you to crown king on one side and a creek to back off the campground.
GuideWe love heading up to Crown King! For dispersed camping, this place is top notch. When you head to town there are services, the saloon, breakfast joint, and pizza place coming soon. It’s not fancy but it’s fabulous! I can’t wait to go hideaway again soon.
GuideAll hookups available at all sites. There is a dog park and a walking path along the river in which the dogs took a dip.
