2 campgrounds with availability this weekend
RV campgrounds near Dewey span the Verde Valley region, offering year-round access with full hookup sites suited for Class A motorhomes, fifth wheels, and large rigs with slide-outs. Verde Ranch RV Resort features 389 spacious sites with full hookups including 50-amp electrical service, water, and sewer connections. Point of Rocks RV Campground in Prescott offers both 30-amp and 50-amp sites arranged within unique granite rock formations, though site quality varies considerably with uneven spacing. Sites throughout the Verde Valley are primarily level gravel pads, many accommodating large Class A motorhomes and fifth wheels with slide-outs. Distant Drums RV Resort provides the most favorable sites along its perimeter for motorhomes, while fifth wheel sites are arranged more tightly in the middle and front sections. "The motorhome sites are nicest as they are along the perimeter with a view. The large 5th wheel sites are tighter and make up the middle of the park," noted a camper about Distant Drums.
Most RV parks in this region maintain clean, modern facilities with swimming pools, clubhouses, and reliable Wi-Fi, though signal strength varies by location. Larger resorts like Verde Valley RV and Camping Resort include premium sites with upgraded full hookup utilities for an additional $5-7.50 nightly fee. Sanitary dump stations are available at most parks, with Willow Lake RV Park, Verde Ranch, and Distant Drums all offering on-site sewer connections. During summer months when temperatures rise significantly, pools and shade become critical amenities, with several reviews mentioning limited natural shade at parks like Verde Ranch. Pet restrictions differ between facilities—most allow pets but may have designated exercise areas. Navigating to some parks requires attention to road conditions; a review of Point of Rocks mentioned "Roads are very narrow and spots are extremely tight. You must have some skill in backing up to get in these spots."
"It is about 30 minutes to emergency medical care. There are quite a few long term residents. The people were nice but not overly friendly. Activities like bingo were offered during the cooler months."

RangerGood spot for an overnight. Convenient and quiet. Right next to a green waste site (closed for the season now). We stopped here for a quick rest. We have a 30 ft travel trailer and didn’t take it back any of the dirt roads as they were a bit muddy from the most recent rains. We just stayed in the gravel lot. There were a couple camper vans and a smaller RV there in the lot when we pulled in.
RangerDefinitely a nice option to dispersed camp in the area. The road was easy in my van, but long and washboard. Not much else out there to do, but certainly quiet and easy to stay a few nights while checking out Sedona.
TravelerIts a place to take a break
GuideBoondocked it in Sedona. Great views. Very quiet. No amenities.
LegendA decent place but the dry camping has gone up to $35 a night. The best part about here is the proximity to the hiking trailer around the Dells and Willow Lake. Ive camped here for years but probably won't be back do to the increase in price.
TravelerCamped here the last weekend of the year. It’s closed for the season on 10/25/26. It was the perfect camp site. We had the fall foliage and had views of one of the canyon walls. Staff was friendly and campsite was spacious. Definitely would stay again.
GuideNice, clean restroom & laundry. Some road noise
GuideThe road up to this is fine for almost all rigs, the turn into the campsite will be tight. They have no camping signs along road 525c, although the map from the forest shows camping is allowed along this road. Make a right on road 9529 and there is a great campsite immediately on the left. It has a circle turn around. Incredible views, great hiking and no one around for miles. The BLM camping on road 525 is crowded. No one on this road. I get the sense they are trying to get people not to camp, but the maps show it is completely allowed. We are here in October and the weather is 70 degrees. Note that when dirt roads get wet, it is a whole different story. Coordinates are 34.87989889666775,-111.94793655703302.
I did buy a wilderness pass from the Arizona forest service. $20 for the year.
GuideSite 27 is nice, however, you are directly below the power&telephone lines. Sweet forested setting, clean facilities and some hiking trails. Very convenient to Prescott, but you do get road noise from Hwy 89, especially during the day.
Dewey's RV parks sit at an elevation of 4,500-5,000 feet in Arizona's central highlands, offering milder summer temperatures than lower desert regions. The area's natural transition zone between high desert and pine forest creates distinct seasonal camping patterns, with April-May and September-October typically providing optimal camping weather. Area campgrounds range from basic amenities to resort-style facilities with organized activities.
Verde River access: Verde Valley RV and Camping Resort provides direct river access that campers frequently mention in reviews. "River access is available at site C which we stayed at and our furbabies loved it!" notes Rebecca N. The river offers opportunities for cooling off during warmer months.
Hiking trails: Multiple hiking opportunities exist within short distances of campsites. "The off leash dog park, pickleball court, and hot tub/pool are just a few to name that we use!" explains Brodie D. about Verde Valley. The resort also features hiking trails with river access directly from the property.
Local attractions: The region serves as a central base for exploring multiple destinations. "It's only 30 minute drive to Sedona and the drive is pretty. Worth it and enjoyable," mentions Brian P. from his stay at Distant Drums RV Resort. Most campgrounds position visitors within 30-45 minutes of Sedona, Jerome, and Prescott.
Resort amenities: Verde Ranch RV Resort earns high marks for its comprehensive facilities. "This resort boasts impressive amenities, including a sparkling pool, a well-equipped rec room, close proximity to sightseeing attractions, paved full hookup sites, and easy access to the Verde River," states Brad B. These higher-end facilities often compensate for limited natural shade.
Social activities: Many parks coordinate regular community events. "On the weekends they have a wonderful food truck that also serves espresso drinks and fresh pressed juice!" shares Brodie D. about Verde Valley. Activities vary seasonally, with more offerings during cooler months.
Quiet locations: Despite highway proximity, several campgrounds maintain relatively peaceful environments. "It's a beautiful setting with a huge variety of sites. There's a mix of full timers and daily/weekly visitors," explains Steve N. about his Verde Valley experience, highlighting the balance between accessibility and tranquility.
Site selection strategy: Point of Rocks RV Campground and similar properties feature significant variation between sites. "We had a premium site which was amazing - great views, high quality hookups and extremely clean showers," reports Wipeout21 T. Site selection becomes particularly important for longer stays.
Temperature considerations: Summer heat impacts comfort significantly. "You are only 10 minutes from Cottonwood, 30 minutes from Sedona, 30 minutes to Prescott and an hour and a half to Phoenix," notes Thomas S. about Verde River RV Resort, emphasizing convenient access to cooler mountain towns during summer months.
Internet limitations: Connectivity varies widely between properties. "I had a T-Mobile, AT&T, and Verizon phone, and all were pretty much worthless most of the time. We paid $15 for a week of WiFi, but ended up asking for a refund as it was even more unusable than our phones," shares Steve N. about his Verde Valley experience.
Pool access: Rain Spirit RV Resort and similar facilities provide swimming options important for family camping. "They have a pool, sauna, and rec/game room," reports Karan B., noting these amenities enhance the family camping experience, especially during warmer months.
Activity planning: Multiple campgrounds offer organized recreation. "We love this campground! We have camped here around 5 times and always had a great stay. They have a pool and hot tub, mini golf, playground, pickle ball court, clubhouse, and lots of crafts and activities for the kids!" shares Mstwister E. about Verde River RV Resort.
Pet considerations: Most parks accommodate pets but with varying facilities. "They have a larger laundry room and a small gym, pool and hot tub. The grounds are always well kept," explains Kloee S., highlighting amenities families typically prioritize beyond just pet areas.
Site leveling challenges: Terrain throughout the region often requires adjustment. "Verde Ranch RV Resort in Camp Verde, AZ offers a pleasurable stay with several top-notch amenities, earning it a 4-star rating," explains Brad B., noting that despite quality facilities, site leveling remains important for setup.
Space considerations: Willow Lake RV Park receives praise for its layout. "We were packed in every which way for a few nights, but the park has cleared out a lot for the last couple of nights and we don't feel so much like sardines," explains Kathryn T., highlighting the impact of occupancy levels on comfort.
Seasonal staffing: Service levels fluctuate with seasonal demand. "We arrived late so it was very dark. The signage was very difficult to see and no one was available to help us find our spot," reports Jacquie N. about her experience at Sedona View RV Resort, emphasizing the importance of arriving during daylight hours.
