Best RV Parks & Resorts near Show Low, AZ

We spent 5-nights here (July 1-6, 2022). Ponderosa is a reasonably quiet (“home improvement” construction next door to us), adult oriented, RV park in the pines(we had apple trees) of Pinetop. I wouldn’t call Ponderosa a RV Resort as it’s more a trailer park with the vast majority of occupants being long term tenants. It is a relatively easy access CG with back-in and pull through (8?) gravel sites. It is a good base camp to visit the area. There are plenty local attractions: lakes, rivers and streams, wilderness and national forests. Activities include: fishing, biking (wish I brought my mtn bike), hiking/walking and ATV trails. We did not make use of the laundry, bathrooms or showers. The WiFi was good as was cell phone reception. We might stay here again.

This RV resort has bathrooms and showers for use as well as a laundry room and fitness center.  They do not have a pool or hot tub but will give a free pass to the Show Low aquatic center for use. We has a FHU site on a level, rock pad.  Site size is moderate, pretty typical for a TT resort in full sun.  Fire rings and picnic tables are not provided.  it was quiet and offered wifi.

Ok RV park in Holbrook, Arizona just what we needed. Best park around this area and see Petrified forest or Winslow. Good Wifi and free cable TV. Showers and laundry are good, clean. All spots are long gravel pull through. Some trees but minimal shade or landscaping. Spacing is close but not tight, they alternate directions so it feels like the next vehicle is further away. No road noise pretty quiet. Most people stay 1 night. A few of us are here waiting out a two day wind storm (25-50 mph). Thank you Highway weather app for showing us the max gusts. As of 3/24/2020 Petrified forest shut their gates not just their visitor centers. Rates are $39-44, or with Good Sam AAA KOA AARP FMCA Active Mitarty $34 -39). Quiet and felt safe, though i would n’t walk through the adjacent mobile home park after dark.

This is an RV Resort, not a camp ground. The lots are average size and fairly easy to get in to. I’m glad I had a spotter. They have nice amenities including cable TV. There is free WiFi, but only at the office. Dog friendly. It has many park models and seems to be a retirement community. The people were nice. Great place to spend the summer months in Arizona. A bit expensive, but I was here for work so it was paid for.

This rv park is easy to get to, has full hookups at every site, looong pull through sites (I’m 48’ w my toad and think I take less than 1/2 of the site), restrooms, laundry, shower, great customer service on the phone and in the office, free Wi-Fi and cable. Definitely an older park, but it’s easy and convenient for a one night stay. It is very windy here in late afternoon to early evening. Pull through sites are facing your neighbor, but your doors are not across from each other. Wide gravel driveways so easy to maneuver

This was our first KOA experience and it was a great spot to stop.  We stayed one night as we were traveling cross county and this was convenient.  They have the new cabins and a very nice layout. There is not much to do close by except for the petrified forest 20+ miles away; so we decided to visit the park the day we left, I would suggest planning a 3 to 4 hour effort to drive through the park since it is a long driving self tour and you can get out and see the sites. We stayed in a full hook up, drive through, level, and the WiFi was good.  Not much road noise. They have the good ol' slide and merry go round that are had to find for kids now a days!

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.

We stayed one night in order to visit the Petrified Forest National Park. It was a typical RV park with tight sites, but they do a pretty good job of placing the rigs so you are not looking in your neighbor's windows We are the Class B van in the photo. The staff were very friendly and making a reservation was easy. The bathrooms were clean (but dated). The sloped floor in the shower was pretty noticible and may give those with balance issues a challenge. The laundry area was clean and reasonable ($2 wash and about $2 for dryer). We needed to level on the gravel site. Quiet, clean, RV park and worth the price. I may try the KOA in Holbrook next time just to compare, but I think this one was supposed to have less road noise.

I have been coming up to the White Mountains since I was a kid. Rainbow campground has been our go-to spot for camping. There are 3 loops that are FCFS. The rest of the sites are reservations. The sites all have picnic tables and fire rings. There are full bathrooms throughout the area and pay showers when is not covid. Big lake is a short drive from the campground, where you can rent a boat, fish from shore and a small store with supplies. There is always wildlife around, especially skunks, so watch your pets. The sites are laid at where you don't feel like you are right on top of your neighbor. None of the sites in Rainbow have hook-ups, bit there is a dump station down the road. There is another campground for full hook-ups down the way.

We stayed at the OK RV Park for one night. We needed a spot to sleep near the interstate for a quick in and out. We didn't plan to use any of the facilities or spend much time in the campground, so we didn't mind the open, gravel campground. Our site was a pull-through and almost level. The space was large, well-marked, and easy to find in the dark. The campground was clean and quiet, and the restrooms were nice. We'd definitely stay here again if we wanted to stay near Holbrook for a day or two. This is a simple RV park and not a resort.

Stayed here on our way from california to home. Greeter was awesome he was very very helpful. Full hookups pull through spot. Pretty level site. We did have to use washer and dryers. Almost all the washers were fictional on the other hand only 3 of 8 dryers worked. We did decide to use the showers so we could take a little longer shower and shave and not have to take a navy shower. Showers were very clean and spacious to change in. The staff the next morning was very helpful with info to have breakfast and pick up some fluids needed for vehicles. Very close to the petrified forest which is a must see, also close to meteor crater. We plan on coming back and staying here again to actually hike some of the trails in the forest.

With a name like "OK RV Park", we werent expecting much, but we were actually pleasantly surprised. Unlike most Moab parks, its not along the highway; its actually back a few blocks and was very quiet! The sites were good size, easy to get into and level. If we go back to Moab, would probably return to OK. Price was reasonable and park was pleasant.

The RV spots are good size. Great hookups and a very quiet place. Friendly people and close to town.

When all the other campgrounds in surrounding areas are packed, Benny Creek is it!

came here on a recent holiday weekend, when everything around show low and pinetop were packed. Greer is right off the 260, but a hidden gem for sure.

Campground was nearly empty. we saw two other groups/families. Camping sites are large, but not as dispersed, so might be noisy if this place gets busy. There are areas for RVs, as well as vault toilets.

There is a Creek that runs along good amount of campground, and a little lake/reservoir 10-15 minute hike away. Lake area was empty and serene as can be (check pics)

Town of Greer is about 10 minute drive from camp ground. There are some services and restaurants. campground does have fire rings and picnic tables in most sites!

This spot is a true hidden gem!
