Best Campgrounds near Sun Valley, AZ

The Bloody Bath access road was an easy drive (F250 SD with a truck camper). Washboards were easy to navigate but watch your speed on the down hill turns. We initially selected the site closest to Bloody Bath Road but decided to move further back to a site about a 1/4 mile in. The road (trail) back to the final site was a bit washed out (dry) with some deep ruts but again easily navigated in our truck. A 2WD Van or a SUV could easily access the site. The site was quiet. The biggest bummer was the amount of trash and empty beer cans strewn around the site. Real bummer.

Great secluded campgrounds the best camp spot is 11 and 12 however it is kind of dirty people do leave things and don't take things to the garbage other than that it's a great place to fish to camp and not have a whole lot of people there there is no cell service so you're off the grid.

Road is in pretty decent shape for my camper van. The area was fairly busy when I was there so had to drive in a couple miles more than I wanted. Sites are nicely spaced though so it's not like some areas where everyone is in a big lot. Also since further in, didn't notice the highway noise like some mentioned.

Great places to stay, a lot of campsites, all separated from each other.

This spot is the nice one on the road. The drive is easy but becomes unmaintained a couple if miles down the road. The pics you see in this listing are not the spot. There are couple of nice rock formations at the site. Although close to the road the natural direction of the breeze blows it away from you. For example, over 20 dune buggy/razor type ORV drove by and kicked up a lot of dust just 30 feet from where I was standing and it all blew south away from me.

The stars are bright and this is worth the drive. Other sites can be seen, however, the distance apart is great enough that you cannot hear them so no concerns about generators, music, or loud parties keeping you awake.

Details: No water, trash, or toilets Sites spread out by hundreds of yards Town is 20-40 minutes away (depending on your site location) but it has everything Free stay. Like most of the federal land there is a 14 day limit, however, there are people living out here soooo.

This is a wonderful place to relax, T-Moble is not great in some places and O in most, Starlink does not work so well out here and there is very tall trees and lots of shade, would make a great place in the summer months. most of the road is very nice and 2wd car can make it, road is 1 lane. Very trailer friendly road and most of the camp spots are big enough for good size trailers. there is 2 ways in one off of 260 and another off of 87, both are about the same condition.

We were here the weekend after Christmas to do some bike riding. All sites are pull through, really well located in sedona. We rode our bikes everywhere. Site was clean and we'll maintained. We didn't use any facilities provided, since we had full hookups, so can't comment to them.

It’s gorgeous. Not very many spots but love being right by the river. With this being said it’s tucked in there by the mountains so it gets colder than desert overnight and has wildlife around plus little to no service for AT&T. However, if I didn’t need service this would’ve been perfect since my dog loves the water.

We stopped overnight traveling from the Phoenix area to Canyon DeChelly. Great spot. Quiet. Clean. A few other campers but we didn’t notice them.

Great dispersed camping spot close to Sedona!

Heads up we camped a little further down on Beaverhead Rd where there were more open spots and an easier dirt road to drive onto. Plenty of spots to choose from which was surprising on a holiday week (Christmas to New Years). The camping was a lot quieter than I expected even though there were a bunch of other campers. Everyone seemed to be able to find a spot far enough from another to have a secluded space.

The location is super convenient from Oak Village and downtown Sedona. There is even a back way on highway 89 if you find yourself in West Sedona and don't want to drive through traffic to get to highway 179.

We love this campground! We have camped here around 5 times and always had a great stay. They have a pool and hot tub, mini golf, playground, pickle ball court, clubhouse, and lots of crafts and activities for the kids! The bathrooms and showers are very nice and clean too!

Decent dispersed spot, the road in is old asphalt with some big dips and holes but mostly avoidable. Bunch of rocks sticking up in the dirt as you drive around the loop of the campsite but my truck was fine. Stayed here a couple times, first time was almost a week and second time was a few days. Can hear a little bit of highway noise but mostly white noise which I did not mind.

The area was really beautiful. I had a pretty strange experience, however. I arrived late at night and once I finally found a camping space, there was a truck that pulled up after me, parked about 10 feet away and the person just sat in the truck without ever getting out. At first I thought, they're just Sharing the space, but then I started to feel very unsettled- like they were watching me or something. As a single female, this is something that was fairly uncomfortable. They sat there for at least an hour, never moving and finally drove away. The next morning I saw this elk skin was draped over the fence behind me and hooves along the fence as well.

Dirt road is a bit washboard but very manageable by any vehicle.

Spots line the road to the left & right as you travel down the road. cell Service can be excellent or poor depending on site you choose (avoid the ones in the dips/valleys if its a concern for you)

No facilities, just good ol’ convenient Arizona boondocking.

I came in mid December and there were only a handful of others.
