Best Cabin Camping near Munds Park, AZ

Several campgrounds near Munds Park, Arizona provide rustic cabins with varying levels of amenities. Flagstaff KOA offers furnished cabin rentals with queen beds, bunk beds, TVs, heaters, and front porches with swinging benches. Dead Horse Ranch State Park features eight small cabins that provide relief from Arizona's summer heat while offering access to fishing ponds and the Verde River. Fort Tuthill Luke AFB Recreation Area includes cabins as part of a larger complex with shared amenities like playgrounds, basketball courts, and a store. Lo Lo Mai Springs Resort provides cozy cabins with electric and water hookups near Oak Creek. According to one visitor, "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."

Rustic and deluxe cabin options are available throughout the region, with most requiring advance reservations, especially during peak summer months. KOA properties offer standardized cabin camping experiences with "predictable" amenities including "twin bunk beds, one queen bed, bare light bulb, front porch." Many cabins are pet-friendly, though additional fees may apply. Arizona Nordic Village provides front country cabins stocked with firewood for the stove, small tables and chairs, and sleeping accommodations including queen-sized mattress pads and bunk beds. Thousand Trails Verde Valley features riverside cabins with access to daily activities, a pool, and clean facilities. Most locations operate year-round, though summer brings higher temperatures and winter evenings can be cool, making the cabin shelter particularly valuable.

Most forest cabins require guests to bring their own sleeping bags or bedding, as only mattresses or sleeping pads are typically provided. Basic cabins generally have limited cooking facilities, with outdoor fire pits or grills being the primary cooking option. More deluxe units may include small refrigerators or microwaves. Campground stores at locations like Flagstaff KOA and Lo Lo Mai Springs Resort stock essential items, firewood, and sometimes snacks or ice cream. Visitors staying in cabins with shared bathhouse facilities should bring towels and toiletries, as these are rarely provided. While some locations offer Wi-Fi near the main office or lodge, connectivity is often limited or non-existent at the cabin sites themselves.

    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.

    Fort Tuthill Luke AFB Recreation Area

    Military campground in adjacent to a county park

    My family and I stayed here in a 34’ travel trailer for one night in late July. To get to the campground, travel thru the county park and follow the signs to Luke AFB recreation area. The campground is part of a larger complex that includes a lodge, cabins, and yurts. All amenities are shared so we had access to a large playground, basketball and volleyball courts, the store, and the bathhouse. The county park itself has playgrounds, an amphitheater, bike trails, and an awesome disc golf course. At each site is a picnic table and a fire pit, with hookups for electric and water. Our site was huge, but others can be a bit tight. Adjacent to the campground is the fairgrounds, which is bordered by an unattractive chain fence. The pump-out station was backed up and unusable while we were there. I’d say the best aspects are the price and the convenience to Flagstaff which is only three miles away. We would stay again.

    Dead Horse Ranch State Park Campground

    You're not there for the camping

    If the sites had a little more privacy, I'd give five stars. Whenever I take my family, I remind myself I'm not there for the actual tent camping, I'm there for everything else the state park offers. There are about eight small cabins as well. This park offers a much needed break from the Arizona heat in the spring and summer months. The "lakes" are really more like ponds but plenty large enough to fish in as is the Verde River, running through the park. Make sure to go down and take a dip during the warm seasons. They've recently improved the playground for young ones and offer horseback riding as well. Facilities are always clean. If you're tired of camping food, drive down the road to Cottonwood and be sure to visit Larry's Antiques (if you're into that of course).

    Grand Canyon-Williams KOA

    Great spot near Grand Canyon

    The camper cabins were a warm and welcome abode after roughing it boondocking for a while. Showers and bathrooms were clean and the cabins were pet friendly.

    Grand Canyon-Williams KOA

    KOA is always a solid choice...

    Stayed in one of the cabins here with kids. Was well maintained, but overall quite dusty. KOAs are nothing if not predictable. Twin Bunk Beds, one queen bed, bare light bulb, front porch. There were RV sites as well.

    Great jumping off point to get to Grand Canyon as it is a little bit North out of the town of Williams. Also easy to get to Williams to have dinner, etc...

    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.

    Grand Canyon-Williams KOA

    Great Basecamp for Grand Canyon Exploration

    Even though we had been camping on this road trip and had our gear in the car, we elected to stay in one of the camping cabins at the Williams KOA and it was quite a treat. Even in the late summer, it can get cool in the evening, so we were thankful for the extra shelter. After dinner by the campfire ring, we went to bed and awoke the next morning to take the little Williams train into the South Rim where we hiked for a couple of miles with our 4-year-old. She did surprisingly well, and it ended being a great little short stay at the GC.

    Arizona Nordic Village

    Front Country Cabin - Oak

    We had previously stayed in a back country yurt in the summer months, this time we decided to stay in a cabin in the front country for NYE. It was quiet, especially considering it was NYE (no wild parties, noisy neighbors, etc) which was nice and what we were hoping for. The cabin is stocked with firewood for the stove, has a small table and two chairs, and a queen sized mattress/pad and a bunk bed with mattress pads. Some of these cabins are renovated, but the one we stayed in was not. Still found it to be comfortable. Note that you do have to bring your own sleeping bag/bedding. The lodge had bathrooms, including showers, flushing toilets, and two sinks. There are pit toilets outside but I went inside to use the bathrooms (they are open 24/7). The lodge opens with staff in the morning and there is free coffee/hot chocolate for those staying/camping at AZ Nordic Village. You can also rent snow shoes or cross country skis here during the day in the winter. I enjoy staying here, both front and back country are great.

    Arizona Nordic Village

    Back Country Yurt - Morning Glory

    We stayed here over Labor Day weekend 2019. We had a lot of fun and really enjoyed the most remote yurt, Morning Glory. Morning Glory has great views and several people (staff and other visitors on the trails) mentioned that Morning Glory is the best yurt to stay in since it is both remote and it has amazing views of the San Francisco Peaks. Additionally, Morning Glory is also placed in the middle of a field with a nearby bench which is also really nice and makes this particular yurt feel serene. Arizona Nordic Village, previously known as Flagstaff Nordic Center, has a lodge, front country cabins and yurts (which are all within a few hundred feet of the lodge and nearby the highway), as well as back country yurts that range 1-3 miles away from the lodge (Morning Glory is a back country yurt). For the back country, AZNV offers gear shuttles at an extra cost of $40. However we packed all of our belongings in since we were not staying for more than a few days. Yurts and cabins come with a battery operated light inside, a propane grill and stove next to the cabin, porta potty a few yards away, nearby picnic table, 2 twin sized sleeping mats, and 2-4 folding chairs (2 in small yurts; 4 in large yurts), a small trey table, and stove (and stove brush and pan to clean ash out), and a fire ring. From what I can tell they also give you some firewood and a 7-gallon jug of water to put out your fire. For an additional cost you can purchase additional wood, which I did since I was unaware they would supply some firewood, but we hardly used this since we did not require the stove in the cabin since the weather at night is in the 50’s. We did try the stove out and found that 4 pieces of wood heated the cabin up a considerable amount within the span of a few minutes. After booking you get a confirmation email with details for your trip. The day of check in I got a courtesy call and was told I could stop in the lodge at check in for a nap and more info. The staff we encountered were all super friendly. We were told there is a black bear that roams the area but we did not see it and heard the bear usually does not make its way up to Morning Glory. Additionally, while vehicle are not allowed in the Forrest, Morning Glory is near a Forrest fire road which had some vehicles on it; I’m not sure that this is common— may have been due to the long holiday weekend. Additionally, I believe AZNV has one or two trucks and ATVs they use to help transport gear. Overall, I had fun and would go back. I don’t love paying for camping (We usually do free dispersed camping and pitch a tent), however this area is fun enough I would go back. The yurt experience was on par for what we are used to when it comes to camping, but it was nice not having to pitch a tent, blow up an air mattress, etc. Lastly, they do haul out your trash for you. I do recommend bringing baby wipes since the trails are dusty, and a headlamp for at night.

    Cell service: I have Verizon and had four bars at the Morning Glory yurt and service at the lodge— however, service between the two was spotty.


Guide to Munds Park

Cabin camping near Munds Park, Arizona sits at elevations ranging from 6,500-7,000 feet, creating a cooler climate than nearby desert regions. The area's ponderosa pine forests remain accessible year-round, though winter temperatures can drop below freezing between November and March. Campgrounds in this region serve as convenient bases for exploring Sedona's red rocks (25 miles southwest) or Flagstaff's urban amenities (17 miles north).

What to do

Riverfront relaxation: Visit Lo Lo Mai Springs Resort to enjoy the creek running through the property. "From sitting in the creek during the summer heat, to exploring the nearby wineries, venturing to the parks, or just sitting by the fire enjoying the cicadas sing, there is something nice for every day," notes one camper.

Mountain biking: Fort Tuthill offers an on-site bike park with trails for all skill levels. "Bike park is a blast. Also have an adventure course and zip line. Bike park is free ropes course has fee. Also has a easy mountain bike trail around the area," reports a visitor.

Local wine tasting: Plan a day visiting nearby wineries from your cabin base. When staying at Page Springs Resort, you're positioned perfectly for wine country exploration. "Close to Sedona without all the traffic. There's 2 Vineyards down the road that we enjoyed... DA Ranch was absolutely beautiful and our favorite."

Wildlife viewing: Set up by the Verde River at Rio Verde RV Park for prime wildlife spotting. "Tons of wildlife plays around the river with humming birds and other beautiful little creatures!" Bring binoculars as dawn and dusk offer the best viewing opportunities.

Stargazing: The area's high elevation and relatively dark skies create excellent conditions for stargazing. Mormon Lake Lodge cabins provide a perfect viewing platform. "Mormon Lake is an astonishing campground: all in alpine forests, at about 6500'. Mild summer, with cool nights."

What campers like

Creek access: Cabins along water features rank highest in visitor satisfaction. At Page Springs Resort, "Our site was right on the creek so we fell asleep to the sound of the creek flowing over the rocks. We went for walks around the area and even walked down the middle of the creek. (Definitely need good water shoes for that.)"

Affordability compared to Sedona: Campers appreciate the value of cabin accommodations near Munds Park compared to pricier Sedona options. "We loved Rio Verde RV park - close to Sedona but a fraction of the cost of the RV parks there. We were able to stay for a few nights and took our motorcycle into Sedona to explore."

Year-round accessibility: Unlike some seasonal mountain destinations, most cabin facilities operate throughout winter. "We spent a few days here last Spring and loved it. The sites were decent. I was lucky to have one with a view but overall the site was decent," reports a visitor to Dead Horse Ranch State Park.

Community atmosphere: Cabin-focused campgrounds often develop friendly cultures. "Huge and fun camp! We were there for three nights to visit Sedona. They have a good pool... There are a lot of permanent and full time campers there...all of them are really nice...always waving and generally smiling."

What you should know

Limited connectivity: Cell service and WiFi vary dramatically between cabin locations. At Thousand Trails Verde Valley, "Internet is almost non-existent. 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."

Seasonal noise levels: Many cabin campgrounds host different crowds depending on season. "When there is enough snow, there is a tube run that is so much fun!" At other times of year, "the campground is close to an event center, though, so expect noise on the weekends even after quiet hours."

Cabin differences: Amenities vary widely between properties. "We had 20 amp electricity but no water, which was disappointing given how expensive this site was," notes one Woody Mountain visitor. Another review points out, "Not all sites have picnic tables (our didn't). Sites were right on top of each other."

Transportation planning: Plan your cabin location based on intended activities. "We don't tow a car so we use bikes and walking. Both seemed dicey with cars moving fast close by. Cottonwood is a fun place about four miles away." Many cabins require a vehicle for accessing nearby attractions.

Tips for camping with families

Pool access: For summer cabin camping with kids, prioritize properties with swimming options. Flagstaff KOA receives high marks from families: "I've stayed here many times, and have loved every time. I've stayed in the cabins, the teepee, a 5th wheel, and a tent. Right next to a mountain that is perfectly hikable. Very dog and family friendly."

Playground proximity: Cabin sites near play structures offer parents the best combination of supervision and relaxation. "The amenities are nice our kids liked the playground, and the pool was nice to have when it was hot in the afternoon."

Kid-friendly trails: Access to gentle hiking paths makes cabin stays more enjoyable for families. "If you're tired of camping food, drive down the road to Cottonwood and be sure to visit Larry's Antiques (if you're into that of course)."

Cabin size considerations: When traveling with children, verify sleeping arrangements before booking. "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."

Tips from RVers

Check cabin parking situations: Some cabin rentals have unusual parking configurations. "Some of the sites you had to park across the road from your camp," notes one Rio Verde visitor. Verify placement before reserving if you're bringing multiple vehicles.

Consider dry cabins for short stays: Not all cabin options provide full plumbing. "We needed a quick place to tent camp close to flagstaff, AZ and we found this campsite on the Dyrt. We tent camped for one night at a cost of 23.00$. Our site was fine, cell service was good, they only have port-a-potty's, it they were clean."

Advance reservation timing: Woody Mountain Campground visitors emphasize booking well ahead: "This RV park is very woodsy, with lots of shade. They offer breakfast burritos at the office from 8-11am." For the best cabin selection, reserve several months in advance during peak seasons.

Road and weather challenges: Cabin access roads may present challenges in certain conditions. "The Mormon Lake area is very nice and secluded. However, the RV sites are so packed together that you barely have room to put out your slides or awnings."
