Best Cabin Camping near Paulden, AZ

Cabin options near Paulden, Arizona provide rustic to modern accommodation styles in various campgrounds and state parks. Dead Horse Ranch State Park Campground features small cabins with electricity and heat, nestled among natural scenery with nearby recreational amenities. "The cabins are cozy, with a full kitchen and fireplace. We had a bonfire out back near the creek and enjoyed the rustic decor," noted one visitor at Apple Creek Cottages. Williams-Circle Pines KOA offers cabin rentals with queen beds and bunk beds, television, picnic tables, and fire pits, while Emmanuel Pines Camp provides more secluded cabin experiences.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Basic KOA-style cabins typically include beds and electricity but no plumbing, requiring guests to use communal bathrooms. Larger family cabins at locations like Thousand Trails Verde Valley include additional amenities such as private bathrooms and kitchenettes. Most properties allow advance reservations, with some requiring minimum stays during peak seasons. Pet policies vary significantly - Williams KOA and Rio Verde RV Park allow pets in certain cabins, while Emmanuel Pines Camp prohibits pets entirely. A camper wrote, "We rented a 4 person cabin with a queen size bed and a bunk bed. The room had a TV, picnic table, fire pit, swinging porch bench, and a heater."

Most cabins provide beds with basic furnishings but require visitors to bring their own linens, pillows, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities range from none to fully equipped, with many cabin sites offering outdoor cooking options like fire pits or charcoal grills. Camp stores at KOA locations stock essential items, firewood, and limited groceries, though selection varies by season. One guest shared, "All we did was grab our sleeping bags and throw them on the bed. The cabin had outlets, so we grabbed our portable charger and fridge and we settled right in!" Visitors staying in more remote cabins should plan to bring all necessary supplies, as resupply options can be limited in the Paulden area.

    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.

    Seligman-Route 66 KOA

    A must-stop when weary!

    We were super tired on our trip and happen to come across this cute TeePee at the site. We stopped and got one of their cozy little cabins, which had everything that we needed. There was a full size bed, a bunk bed, a desk and chair, a cute little porch swing, a fire pit, a water spigot and inside the cabin they also had air conditioning and a couple heaters. All we did was grab our sleeping bags and throw them on the bed. The cabin had outlets, so we grabbed our portable charger and fridge and we settled right in! The compound itself has a laundromat, a pool, a space for your dog to play and stretch out, a playground for the kids and a really great store that is pretty well stocked with just about anything that you could need. The staff was awesome!

    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

    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...

    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.

    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.
