  Okay.

  Stayed here Nov 21-23, 2021. 

  Firstly, these sites are pretty tight.  They are level, but tight.  All gravel. Secondly, there's nothing for dogs.  They may advertise as pet friendly, but it's really just not.  There's an area designated for a pet walk, but it's just not a pet walk at all.  You have the option to pay an extra $20 for a site that includes a little area for your doggo, but it's about a 4x4 cage with fake grass.  Really only big enough for a toy chihuahua to comfortably use it for potty time.  The restrooms were clean and decent.  Wifi decent. Laundry facility decent. This place is pretty straight forward in how it's designed and what it has to offer.  If you don't have pets, then this place might be good for you. Overall, it was okay for 2 nights, but no more than that.

  Great RV Park located in the AZ Forest

  Nice wide sites for your RV.  This park is located in the forest area of Show Low, AZ.  At this time, the amenities (due to COVID 19), except for the laundry room, are closed so was unable to give it a 5 star rating.  Location is central to everything.  In fact, we rode our eBikes to get to just about everything.  Temps are warm in June and then cool down significantly after the Monsoon rains begin.  Nice people in the park.  Nice dog park and dog run.

  Spread out and Clean

  We stayed a couple night at this camp ground. It was clean and had easy pull through sites. It was not crowded at all and they were good with spreading everyone one for privacy. They had a nice dog area and petrified wood on site to look at. 

  The lady who check us in was so nice. 

  This was just a short drive from the Petrified National forest which had various overlooks and short hikes. The forest was also pet friendly. 

  I would stay here again. 

  AT&T was spotty in the area.

  Nice But Sites a Little Tricky

  This is really a Park Model Resort that has about 25% of their sites set aside for RVs. The RV sites are scattered throughout the park but they have tried to group them together as much as possible. The sites are pretty level, really wide, and fairly deep. There is a concrete patio with each site. Sites are covered in cinders which are a bit of a pain. They present a somewhat soft surface which is like walking in about 6 inches of soft sand. Almost all the sites have a tree planted right at the front next to the road. Some of the trees are a bit wide which really makes getting into the site difficult. Even though the sites are wide the RV parking area is between the patio and the sewer connection which is about 11ft wide. When you combine that with landscaping and patio covers on some of the park models and getting in some sites can be real challenging for a larger rig. We have a 40ft motorhome and have been to this park probably 8 times. So far we have made it in and out but with some new scratches and a bit of maneuvering. Cell service is pretty bad here. We have Verizon cell phones which usually worked for phone service but sometimes cut out. We have Verizon and AT&T hotspots. AT&T worked the best but not fast enough to stream anything most of the time. There is Wi-Fi offered for a fee but we have not tried that. They also offer cable TV which I believe is free. They have a couple of dog parks, nice common areas, laundry, and a small gym. They have some other clubs and activity rooms but all of those have been closed due to Covid.

  Nice, clean, friendly staff

  All gravel, some trees but they are out of the way. Staff was very friendly and helpful in getting to our spot. They have a pet area , laundry room and restroom/ showers.

  Great Site- Close to National Park

  I love the setup of this park! Spacious gravel sites and very friendly staff. Laundry, pet park, and onsite bathrooms. Good water pressure and multiple tubes for making dumping your tanks easy!

  Very Well Kept!

  In my cross country move, I stopped here for a night to visit the Petrified National Park. I had never stayed at a KOA before but got a cabin with no bathroom for 1 night. It was very nice! Cozy. There was a strong heater, and it was pet friendly! The manager was nice and the park was well kept!

  Pretty View

  This was a good emergency stop, but I would not pay 15 dollars again. The bathrooms and showers were closed. Be aware. Its not that cool at night and there are a ton of mosquitos near the water. I went to explore and discovered a beauftiful cat there. Not sure if he is someones house cat that stays there, but he hangs by the water and seems taken care of 😆. He glared and stared at me when I psssspssss him. Peaceful.

  Long sites, quiet.

  Nothing fancy, long pull through sites. Narrow though. Nice, big laundry facility which was super convenient for us. Extended our stay to take care of one of our cats. Easy drives to PRNP, Winslow etc. Really nice team working here.
