Best Glamping near Mormon Lake, AZ

Mormon Lake Lodge RV Park & Campground and Double Springs Campground house upscale glamping accommodations amid the scenic forests of northern Arizona. Both locations feature a variety of luxury canvas accommodations including yurts and well-appointed safari tents with premium amenities. The sites provide comfortable bedding with linens, electricity, heating and cooling options, and private outdoor spaces for relaxing. One guest noted, "The Mormon Lake area is very nice and secluded," though they recommended selecting one of the wooded sites for better privacy. Double Springs Campground offers more spacious glamping options with better separation between sites, making it ideal for those seeking a more exclusive boutique camping experience. Each glamping unit includes picnic tables, fire rings, and proximity to drinking water.

Distinctive hiking opportunities surround these glamping destinations, with the Arizona Trail crossing directly through Double Springs Campground. A recent visitor highlighted, "The nearby trail to the overlook is a pleasant hike, not too intense." Wildlife viewing opportunities abound, with guests frequently spotting butterflies and hummingbirds during summer months. While Mormon Lake itself is often dry, the area provides a cooler mountain retreat from Arizona's summer heat with temperatures significantly lower than nearby Phoenix. Cell service is limited at the glamping sites, creating a true digital detox experience. The nearby general store at Mormon Lake Lodge stocks essential supplies, while weekend dining is available at the lodge restaurant. Both locations operate seasonally, with Double Springs typically open from May through mid-October and requiring advance reservations during peak summer months.

Double Springs Campground
Pretty, secluded retreat
What a great find! This spot seemed quite unique in comparison to the surrounding camping areas. The town of Mormon Lake was bustling with 4 wheelers and camper trailers, but this "first-come, first-served" camp ground had an entirely different vibe. Of course, it is 4th of July weekend, but campers here were quiet and respectful, observed quite hours. I arrived early, having taken a Thursday off and snagged campsite #11, what I felt was one of the best spots. Sites 10, 11 and 12 are large, with parking for 2 cars and very spread apart. Not near the dumpster (one site is … why they would do that, I don't know). There is a fresh water spigot right across from the site and the restroom is just a short jaunt away. At the moment there is a strict fire ban, so no late night campfires this time around.

The back of the campsite is walled by trees, ready for exploring. The tiny nearby creek can almost be heard from the site, and to the right there is a small field that the Arizona Trail crosses through. I made use of my time her by hiking both directions of the trail straight from the campground. This time of year I also found an ample butterfly population! The hummingbirds were sociable, and the bugs weren't bad, I made it without bug spray but I came across a mosquito or two.

Just across the street from Mormon Lake - notorious for never actually having any water - this time it also didn't.So … don't expect much as far attractions at this spot. However, just down the road you can visit Upper Lake Mary and play in the slighter quieter area away from the bustle of the main part of the lake.

The camp hosts are very friendly, the sites are $20 a night per group for 1 vehicle (up to 8 people) and any additional cars are $8 each. There is no recycling - I packed mine up to take home and recycle. They are dog friendly and I found it really a great spot to camp with a dog. The toilets are decent-ish, cleaned (really as clean as those standard campground toilet pots can be) and at the moment there is a sanitizer jug with a squirt top outside, which is helpful. I didn't see the nearby Dairy Springs campground but I would DEFINITELY come back to this one. On Thursday night they didn't fill up but about 2pm on Friday all the sites were full.

Do note: Campsite does not have cell service (and I have Verizon). You can walk out to the camp entrance just at the main road and pick up some service there if needed.

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.

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.

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.

Mormon Lake Lodge RV Park & Campground
Great alpine experience!
Mormon Lake is an astonishing campground: all in alpine forests, at about 6500’. Mild summer, with cool nights, many escape the heat of PHX up here.

Many 30/50 amp full-hook up sites, with a laundry and shower room( though, this time, the showers were closed for repairs.

Mormon Lake is a huge natural flat spot in the Coconino National Forest, that even when full, might only be 5’ feet deep.

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)

Spillway (AZ)
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.

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

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.
