TravelerEasy to find. Very clean and quiet place. We are in the local Saguaro vegetation. Clean restrooms and a friendly outdoor dishwashing area.
ScoutWe drove 3 hours from Phoenix for a weekend in the forest, new to town and learning the ways of Arizona camping, didn’t realize fires are some times allowed and some times not. We would have gone somewhere closer to home if this app had updated information that campfires (wood) are currently not allowed. :/
TravelerEasy . 50$ for hookup water / electric. Communal Dumpstations on grounds. Coyotes and some weird desert squirrels . Trails for mountain biking . Grills
ScoutA few camps looked 'long term....' but the people all were considerant and to go i to town or the Nat'l park was super close. Were there about two weeks and would go back if in the area. Great place.
