    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.

    Woody Mountain

    Fantastic wooded retreat

    Very clean and orderly campground, sites can vary is shape size and fitment . But most are shaded. Very nice tent areas, frequent trains but with no train horns(great background noise) . The roads in the campground are very confusing , arrive with daylight to spare and walk to you site before you try to turn down any roads. Fairly level dirt sites. WiFi is decent but a pay per service and you need browser access.

    Thousand Trails Verde Valley

    Great place with versatile activities to do for fun

    Their resort is the best one for the money.   Their bathrooms are designed for UNISEX so it is no gender issue and nice place to shower, etc. where the laundromats are in several spots.

    It has nice path for people to hike, fish, or explore in the wood.

    The pool area is nice for toddlers with all cool features to play, heated pool and spa with plenty of chaises. The community center has nice a pool table, snack bar where you can serve yourself free coffee, playing board games, and sometimes, they have fun activities with a small fee for kids or adults to do something creatively.

    It offers ATV/UTV to rent to explore around the towns (Cottonwood, Clarksdale, Sedona, and Jerome.

    It has tiny houses to rent for travelers who want to camp without RVs or tents.

    It is convenient from the highway with grocery stores, restaurants, gas stations, RV services close by, and a local casino.

    It has two places close by where you can wash your RVs if necessary and on site wax service.   

    The staff in the office and maintenance were very friendly and professional ready to help

    Williams-Circle Pines KOA

    Great KOA with lot's of Amenities

    This KOA is very clean and has ton's of amenities on site, very nice showers and bathrooms, some of the amenities are mini golf, pan for gems, trails, go karts, peddle cars, playground, laundry room, store,small arcade, just to name a few, not all the amenities are free. Close to Williams,AZ one exit away, also close to Bearizona, Grand Canyon, Deer farm. They have everything from campsites that are primitive to a full group cabin to rent and everything in between.

    During our stay we rented a 4 person cabin, while other family members that we were there to camp with had a pull thru spot for there 5th wheel.

    Our cabin has a queen size bed and a bunk bed, the room had a TV, picnic table. fire pit, swinging porch bench, and a heater, the rest rooms where a quick minute walk away.

    Flagstaff KOA

    Mountain bike paradise

    Great campground. Helpful friendly staff. There is access to some great trails right behind the park. Sites are descent size but definitely not level but that is an easy fix. WiFi is not good so if you need to get work done or the kids need to zoom it may be difficult. Only downside was the inconsiderate neighbors with barking dogs left in the trailer while they were out and the Karen in the spot next to us asking us to turn down the music in our trailer at noon(yes noon)

    Woody Mountain

    Great campground!

    We were only there for one night but the campground was clean and very well maintained. The office staff was very professional and made sure we knew exactly how to get to our reserved site. There is a restaurant on site that serves breakfast and lunch but they are closed Tuesdays so we can’t rate them since that was the day we were there. We had site 5, with full hookups and it had a small fence barrier to the roadway, which gave us some privacy from those walking or driving through the campground. The office and small store/restaurant was a very short walk away. Our site was also across the street from a small fenced doggy play yard, bathrooms and laundry facilities. We’ll definitely stay here in the future! It cost a bit more than other camp sites, but we was still glad we stayed there.

    Grand Canyon-Williams KOA

    Great place to stay outside GCNP

    We stayed here because it was very reasonably priced for a cabin when we were visiting the Grand Canyon. After a very hot day seeing the Canyon, it was great to return to the pool. There was also a hot tub (age 14+ only). The cabins didn’t have air conditioning but it got pretty cool at night and there was a fan so we slept great. Everyone was friendly. Nice large and clean bathrooms and showers. Would definitely stay here again if we come back to visit!

We had a full moon that week and hiked up the hill to their observation deck on hat overlooked cottonwood and had views of Mingus Mountain and Jerome. Easy shot up 89a to Sedona. Great stay!

    Ranger Review: Escape Campervans at Flagstaff KOA

    Campground Review

    The Flagstaff KOA is a great place to stay! And a great jumping-off-point to fabulous destinations.  We were visiting the Grand Canyon from Phoenix, so we were able to make it to the campground in about 2 hours (leaving after work) and then drive to and from the Grand Canyon the next day, since it is only an hour drive from there.

    The sites are pretty close together, but that didn’t really matter staying in our campervan.  We had all the space we needed. I especially loved the very clean bathrooms! Flushing toilets and free showers (with attached changing stalls) made for a very comfortable trip.  

    Our kid’s favorite was the Jumping Pillow.  It is this huge inflatable thing that the kids can jump all over and they wanted to do that constantly.  Super fun and easy entertainment.

    There was also a large playground and little go-kart style bicycles the kids could rent.  

    Our stay was really great and I highly recommend the Flagstaff KOA!

    Product Review

    As a Ranger for The Dyrt, I get to test products from time to time.  Escape Campervans allowed me and my family to take our their Maverick van for the weekend.  Let me give you all the details:

    First of all, we LOVED traveling in this campervan!!  Driving in and of itself was wonderful. The back bench is very spacious, so our three kids in car seats/boosters had plenty of space.  I loved the huge passenger seat and could really spread out while we drove. The van was easy to handle and easy to maneuver. Even on little dirt roads and tight turns we had plenty of space (very unlike an RV).  

    Once we got to our campsite, it was dark out and 9 o’clock at night.  All the kids had fallen asleep on the drive. Normally this would be a huge pain, having to pitch our tents and unpack the cots and sleeping bags, and pack n’ play etc.  But we just pulled into our spot (these vans can park in tent sites too!) and my husband got out and popped the rooftop sleeper (takes 30 sec. to do), we shuffled the kids up top while I unfolded the inside bed.  Took us just a few minutes to get both beds up and ready to go. The kids were nestled into their beds in no time.

    My 4 year old daughter and I slept in the inside bed together, with my 1 year old son in a little pop-up baby tent at the foot of the bed.  My husband and 5 year old son slept in the rooftop sleeper. Everyone was warm despite the 35 degree nighttime temperature, and everyone slept through the night  (a FIRST for this family while camping!!).

    The back doors open to reveal a complete camp kitchen, with pump sink, propane stove, all the utensils, prep surface, solar powered fridge and plates/cups.  We cooked up some homemade fajitas with steak strips and peppers on the stovetop and it worked fabulously. We literally just pulled off to the side of the road in Grand Canyon National Park and made this delicious lunch.  The kids ran and played in the trees while I cooked. It was a special moment.

    I really can’t say enough good about the experience. We can’t wait to rent one again.  It made this trip so easy. Some things you don’t even think about, like how we all needed to change clothes at the Grand Canyon.  We just shut the curtains and were able to do that in a busy parking lot. In our minivan -- that would not have happened.

    Tons of storage space, smooth ride, comfortable sleeping, large back bench.  Great. Trip.

Guide to Jerome

Verde Valley offers diverse camping options for visitors to Jerome, Arizona. The region sits at elevations between 3,000-5,000 feet, creating moderate temperatures compared to lower Arizona elevations. Winter nights often drop below freezing while summer daytime temperatures typically reach the 90s. Many campsites near Jerome provide access to the Verde River, with several campgrounds offering designated river access points.

What to Do

Hiking trails nearby: Cave Springs Campground provides excellent access to Oak Creek Canyon's natural features. "A short walk across what the property will find you at Alcantara Winery. It was the perfect place to end our day of exploring the area," notes one visitor about convenient activities from the camp.

Water recreation: Verde River RV Resort & Cottages offers multiple water-based activities. "They have a pool and hot tub, mini golf, pickle ball court, clubhouse, and lots of crafts and activities for the kids!" reports a recent visitor who appreciates the diverse recreational options.

Wildlife observation: Bearizona and local wildlife viewing opportunities are accessible from Williams-Circle Pines KOA. "We took our motorcycle into Sedona to explore. We are full time in our motorhome so we enjoyed having access to the clean bathrooms & showers. It's right by the river and great for cold plunges," mentions a guest at Rio Verde RV Park about day trip options.

What Campers Like

Riverside relaxation: Rio Verde RV Park offers sites directly adjacent to the Verde River. "Awesome little park! Set in the middle of everything just about... a short drive to national monuments, Sedona, Jerome and loads of great local food!" reports one camper about the convenient location.

Shaded sites: Cave Springs Campground provides ample tree cover. "Tucked into Oak Creek canyon, surrounded by trees, red dirt mountain sides, and a creek this campground is stunning. Though close to the road, it is farthest set back than the other campground next door," notes a visitor about the natural surroundings.

Proximity to attractions: Many campers appreciate the central location for exploring the area. "This is 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," advises a Dogtown Lake visitor about accessibility considerations.

What You Should Know

Reservation requirements: Rancho Sedona RV Park requires advance bookings during peak seasons. "Due to the layout of the park your assigned space is given to you BEFORE your arrival. This should not be an issue, except in our case," shares one camper about their check-in experience.

Cell reception limitations: Coverage varies significantly between campgrounds. "Cell reception and internet were terrible. The employee at the entrance told us what spot we were in, but said sometimes people took them, so just find another spot and let them know where we landed," reports a camper at Verde Valley about connectivity challenges.

Road noise considerations: Some campgrounds experience highway noise. "Downside is there is no doggy park. Enjoying this place and all are friendly," notes a Rio Verde RV Park visitor, while another mentions "there is a bit of road noise but nothing some ear plugs can't help with."

Tips for Camping with Families

Kid-friendly activities: Verde River RV Resort offers multiple recreation options. "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 an enthusiastic family camper.

Swimming options: Several campgrounds feature swimming areas or pools. "This campground has tons of sites to choose from many of them a short walk from the creek. There's a swimming hole on the creek nearby," reports a Cave Springs visitor about natural water features.

Yurt camping alternatives: For families seeking yurt camping near Jerome, Arizona, Riparian Ridge Ranch offers distinctive accommodations. One visitor described it as a "Zen-Alpaca Ranch-Wine Country-base of House Mountain" with electric hookups and toilets available in the yurt sites.

Tips from RVers

Site selection considerations: RVers should research site specifications carefully. "We were in spot 59 which is by the river and secluded somewhat, although it can be tricky getting in and out of!" advises an RV owner at Rio Verde RV Park about navigation challenges.

Hookup variations: Available services differ between campgrounds. "The sites are well-spaced, and the amenities include a pool, hot tub, 2 dog parks, hiking trails, river access and clubhouse. Its proximity to Sedona, Jerome and local wineries makes it an excellent choice," reports a visitor to Thousand Trails Verde Valley about the comprehensive amenities.

Level site availability: Some campgrounds present leveling challenges. "So unlevel that I ran out of leveling blocks trying to compensate. And the worst part the sewer connection was HIGHER than my TT so every time I had to empty my tanks I had to jack my trailer up higher than the drain," warns a Williams-Circle Pines KOA RVer about specific site limitations.
