Best Campgrounds near Parks, AZ

Quiet,clean, close to Grand canyon. Nice.

5-6 other campers here now. Snowed last two days and mostly melted- roads a little muddy but made it with a 26ft motorhome no problem! My second time staying here- love it. E bike to hiking trails or just walk the road

Off the 40 - quiet, with great views of the stars. Only two other rigs around but with enough space to spread out and feel alone - check out the crater nearby if you have some free time. Would recommend this spot for an easy overnight stay or stay a bit and explore Williams and Flagstaff!

In this dispersed campground in the nature you are near everything near to Grand Canyon near to some market but it’s also so calm just a really good place to crash if you want to stay without paying a Rv park or something like that No amenities but you can go to the Mather Campground and pay a little if you want to take a shower or to do your laundry. I recommend this place

Easy spot to camp for a night, with pretty good views. Lots and lots of shell casings and related trash, so not great for little kids.

Rough paved roads, but our Recvan did fine. We saw an Elk, it saw us, we walked back quickly. The surroundings are mainly bushes and rocks. Free camping with total solitude. AT&T and Tmobile both show good service. Verizon is unknown.

LoLoMai is our go-to campground. It has an ideal 2h drive distance, is nestled into the oak creek canyon, and secluded from the road. Kids can roam freely. 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. The mix of full hookups, cabins and tent camping allows for every style that you might prefer.

I've parked my van as well as my skoolie out there many times over 5 years. It is under the canopy of the trees, very popular place so it gets crazy crowded. Think off grid intentional community. Is your are into herbal medicine, usnea grows here in mass. Mushrooms, yarrow herb. It is usually quiet at night, busy in the day. The road through there is a direct route from Belmont to flag, so expect that traffic. Also they shut down the interstate, this road actually becomes the route to flag. Everything from sheriff to semi trucks will drive it, and not slow! But tons of space in the forest.

I've parked my 36 foot skoolie out on the Kaibab plateau here for 2 years now. The most incredible peace I've found near Flagstaff. If you want quiet, wilderness, peace and natural beauty, this is the place. The further back you go, the better it gets, although the road sucks, my skoolie and Honda Van navigate it slowly.

Rock quarry right next to the site is great for shooting some rounds. There’s a mini lake next to the spot as well. Beautiful area.

We headed in for a night of dispersed camping before heading into Grand Canyon NP. There were lots of available spots to choose from being January. It was easy to find and the drive in was fairly smooth.
We went in after dark but did some exploring in the morning before leaving. We found lots more sites available, some large, some small. Most having fire rings.
Cell service was spotty but we were camping so it was to be expected.

Walking distance to trails (Hangover trail was our favorite) and restaurants. Can’t beat the location. City of Sedona shuttle connect can pick you up directly from campground. Clean bathroom and hot showers. Laundry. Quiet. Overall very happy with our 7 night stay.

The road is totally doable in a minivan or the likes if you have some experience driving on rougher terrain, but only if you are coming in off of hwy 17. If you are in Sedona and decide to take 89A because you don’t want to drive out to hwy 17 like we did you will be met with a side by side trail. It is not a road. We barely made it in a 2025 Subaru Outback wilderness. If you have 4x4 and a solid 12 inches of ground clearance then go for it cause it is fun but damn. We took hwy 17 the rest of the days we camped here and it was a breeze. Beautiful views!

We only stayed 2 nights. Spot E2 was a bit tight to back up into, needing to weave in-between obstacles. 220 power wasn't working, but maintenance was out here immediately and fixed it. Was here in winter, with showers and bathrooms closed, so never saw them.

Easy access with class C camper. 2 bars with Verizon. Site was very quiet.

We came in after dark and still easily found the sites. We quickly got settled for the night. Our dog was excited to be able to get out and stretch her legs after spending two days in Death Valley.
