"And the closest site to Water Wheel which is about ten miles away and Arizona’s best kept secret."
"Nature's Playground: The campground's proximity to swimming holes, hiking trails, and the charming town of Payson provides endless opportunities for exploration and adventure."
"If you can, you absolutely should keep going down the main entrance road until you come to the first left turn. Turn left onto a half loop shown on the map."
"Pulled in after 10:30 pm and could tell right away the area was quiet, likely because there’s no highway signage, making it a not-so-obvious place to camp."
"Great place, laundry, pool and close to town. Each spot is level and very clean restrooms. We spent two months there while my husband received treatment at the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix."
"This is also right near the dog pin area.
You are off a major road so near by shopping is a breeze but you will not be forced to hear the traffic so no worries there."
$8 / night
"Beautiful forest and close to the cute towns of Pine and Strawberry. It's also close to Tonto Natural Bridge. May have to drive some rough roads to get there."
"Easy access to surrounding areas. Only problem is the proximity to the road with a lot of ATV/UTV and general traffic who seldom follow the speed restrictions."
"A ton of pull offs to choose from and far enough away from other campers. I had service there with AT&T. It gets cold- low of 30s and windy"
"The view was absolutely stunning and depending on where you stop you won’t be next to any campers but once you turn onto rim road it gets a little bumpy but doable with any car"
"Tall pines all around, lots of exploring room for kids. The camping areas are all pretty open and there are plenty of spots to park a trailer or RV."
"Thick tree coverage which hid us from the winds that day / night and the rim was a 200 foot walk away. Able to get there in my Chevy Trax which is front wheel drive only, without any problems."
"Not a steep drop off so safe for having dogs around very windy im assuming bc of the location. Dirt road coming in but not bad at all. Easy to get our travel trailer in and out."
"Right off the highway. You can hear some of the traffic but it wasn’t a big deal to us. The dirt roads are decently kept and wasn’t too rough of a ride."
"Along a mountain side there are 3-4 sites in close proximity however still kinda private. Established fire pits. Great tall trees for hammocks, flat rock base in some areas."
"You have access to multiple lakes that you may fish out of and plenty of campsites."
"We arrived at 1 pm on Friday and had many choices of beautiful campsites next to the rim. "
"We're 20 yards from the edge of the rim. Several of the campsites have fire rings set up, be sure to check for any fire restrictions."
ScoutA little noisy , but nice spots and clean rest rooms
GuideSo many sites and gorgeous sunsets. Near enough to Phoenix without the intense heat
GuideBunch of OHVs, but they keep to their own.
We saw wild horses and tons of space for biking. We loved it
ScoutWe selected this dispersed campsite from the Dyrt review for our inaugural trip with our new travel van. The view below the Mogollon Rim is breathtaking. The access road, FR300, is a dirt road that was recently maintained by the logging company, which cut trees. We arrived at 1 pm on Friday and had many choices of beautiful campsites next to the rim. Later that night, others attempted to join our spot, but they were gracious about looking elsewhere when they saw our camp.
ScoutWe love this place. We camp with friends and get buddy sights. It's clean and well maintained. They have a pool and Jacuzzi and store. Sights are easy to access. A little bit of freeway noise but not bad.
GuideMuddy, can get stuck easy in case of light rain. Not much privacy.
**Stay on Beaverhead Rd another 1 or 2 miles and you ll find better options. **
ScoutGreat for a quick and quiet overnight stop, not too crowded for a Saturday night
ScoutLoud music was being played all night and people would rev their ATV’s a lot throughout the night as well. People would also shoot their guns so be careful for a stray ricochets. This would be nice if it wasn’t for the all the aforementioned things. The lake is really beautiful but if you’re tent camping, I hope you have some ear plugs
GuideLots of space, quiet, scenic drive to get to the spot. Some cell coverage but not much. I d stay again!
