"It kind of poked off the main loop away from other neighbors which is why we picked it, very close to the mtb trail and easy access to the trail leading to siphon draw. Very little shade."
"One of my favorite trails in Arizona."
"Outstanding layout, great hosts, spectacular location. "
"Campsite 6 is the first one on the right, across from the Camp Host site, and as close to the entrance has you’re gonna get."

"I use the north entrance off Bush highway. I've camped here 5 or 6 times. No water or bathrooms. Leave no trace. You need a permit and gate code. Most ATVers but not loud during the week."
"This is a nice area if you like to off road. We take our trailer out for the weekend to get out of the city. It’s an hour from Tempe/ Phoenix."
"This KOA sits on the outskirts of Apache Junction, which itself isn't Phoenix proper but an eastern suburb. The RV park has all of the basics: power, water, sewer plus a pool and a level, clean site."
"We had plenty of space between us and adjacent sites. The whole KOA has some nice touches as far as landscaping, sites with grills, etc. Very clean and well kept."

"Rode the scenic Apache Trail Arizona route 88 looking for some BLM land. Couldn’t find a flat place to pull over. Grateful to find a campground near the end of 88."
"The road is close by, but you don’t hear much of anything after dark. "
"Enjoyed our December visit to Lake Marina campsite 201. Will say campsites are close together. Awesome families close to us made it fun."
"So if you had sleepless because of noise and did not call for assistants shame.on you not canyon lake. The gentleman i checked in with would corrected the situation."
"It's on BLM land, so you are out of the reach of the Arizona Land Permits.
The road is a bit tricky."
"It’s got great views of the mountains, TONS of awesome trails to walk/ride love the access to the little ghost town nearby."
"Drive through the town of Gold Canyon AZ, and you quickly leave behind the sprawl of suburban Phoenix, but embrace the sprawling landscape of the Sonoran Desert which is brimming with life in the spring"
"
- It's Arizona...but there's GREEN stuff everywhere.
- Great view of the mountains here.
- Saguaro cacti everywhere.
- I fed some carrots to a horse this morning.
- The main road is pretty"
"Great Campground, close to everything."

"There still was plenty of room I was at campsite 64 still had a nice view of the lake and a short walk to it."
"Fishing within walking distance. Bathrooms are clean and a water spiket/faucet available."
TravelerI liked staying here. The sites are spacious and spaced well enough apart from each other.
GuideAll the amenities you would ever want and then some. Lots of activities 14 pickleball courts! Or site 411 was very close to the pool, but not the main pool with the bar. So it did poor rain and hail on us. Running out for that walk
GuideThis was my favorite place for dispersed camping! (Not at the established campground) but as of May 2025, they have dug TRENCHES in front of every single dispersed camping site so you cannot access them anymore. What a shame
ScoutNothing on website said gate closes and can’t get back in after 9 pm.
GuideYou wouldn't know it on your drive from the freeway to this KOA, but it's a pleasant, well-run RV / Cabin/ Tent campsite. The sites are spacious, hosts friendly and informative. There's a pool and jacuzzi, a number of machines in the laundry, and the showers have doors.
RangerThree parking lots open for "dispensed camping". Third one is largest. Each has pit toilets. Stairs down to river er beach. Quiet, only one other camper in May. Water still a bit cold.
RangerThis review is for the boat ramp just past the camping area on the road. While the camping area shows signs of neglect. Thw boat rampnis fully functional. Remember to get your tonto water use sticker first ($4) as the ramp is unmanned.
RangerQuiet. Only a few campers in May, many longer term. The sites are pretty run down / overgrown and nothing is offered but great for the price! Good if you have a small watercraft as there is a ramp close by.
RangerGreat campground centerally located to Phoenix and Scottsdale. Was only planning to stay 2 nights but ended up extending my stay. Full hookups and laundry/showers in house. Also have a cute patio area to hangout as well as a clubhouse with WIFI. RV park backs up to a park with a coded gate so easy access to playground/big grass area for dogs. Park is fully fenced with gate. Very clean and well kept.
I booked online at like 4:30ish (their office closes at 5). The gate codes for entry and club house were in the confirmation email as well as the manager called me at like 5 til to confirm I had codes and everything I needed to get it - so appreciated! Manager was also very friendly also when I asked for recs and about extending my stay. Have weekly and monthly rates on top of nightly ones. Would come back.
