      Very enjoyable!

      Never camped before in my life, so I have nothing to compare this to. Having said that- the staff were great, bathrooms very clean. The weather was quite warm, so we didn’t do much exploring. Also - the donkeys!! Everywhere!

      Crown King Area (Horsethief Basin lake)

      Gorgeous secluded town for off-roading & camping

      Gorgeous easy dirt road ~27 miles from i17/Bumble bee. (There’s also a much more difficult trail from lake pleasant that requires very experienced off-roading 4x4). Great food and drinks(alcohol) at the crown king saloon and Mimi’s Cafe. There are amazing camping areas just past the main town, and even all the way up near Horsetheif Basin which is about 7 miles past crown king(requires 4x4). There is also an amazing ~30 mile trail from crown king that leads all the way to Prescott called Senator Highway. This also requires experienced 4x4 and like the trail to Horsetheif basin, there are many areas that are only single vehicle width. Amazing weather all year round, but extremely limited travel available while snow is on the ground.

      Beautiful Lake

      A few things. 1st. If you plan on staying overnight with an RV do not reserve the Ramada sites. They’re meant for day use and are super tiny and squished together. We started there, but our 24ft trailer wasn’t even close to fitting. So we had to move.

      We moved to the sites with no water and no electric. Super awesome sites, very clean and very quiet.

      Donkeys…..there are tons of donkeys, really cool…..the first night. They’re cool until you realize they don’t sleep and all they do is make a lot of noise,lol. Not that I wouldn’t go back again because of the donkeys, but just be prepared they’re not far away and they make the “hee-haw” noise All Night Long, lol.

      Don’t camp here without water sports or Side by side. There aren’t any trails for bike riding or hiking. But the water is great to spend a couple of days on and the Side by side trails are endless.

      Overall, really nice camping. I would definitely go back, with or without a SxS. Just not in the summer….there’s no shade and it’s desert.

      Beautiful Vista

      Very large park with many different levels of camping experiences. From dry camping to full on glamping ! I stayed at Vista Pt. Dry camp. The views were beautiful. I stayed 10 days and as a single women I felt very safe. Security makes it's rounds and you can't get into the park after leaving without your pass. The one thing I would mention the drive up to the PT is rather steep, but there were different sized rigs up there is it is doable. I didn't use the amenities as I was away most days visiting with my daughter who lives in the valley.

      Not that great

      Pulled into our reserved spot only to see a 6ft x 6ft section roped off for a drip irrigation repair. It was really great to have this area roped off right where you would normally have the awning out and sit. Would have been nice to know this was being worked on when I booked so I could have looked for another spot. Otherwise it is a fine enough campground.

      Alamo State Park: Section D

      Alamo Lake is a long-time favorite spot. Only a couple hours West of PHX and some great views with an abundance of SxS / ATV trails. Alamo Lake is also very well known for it's fish (especially bass & crappie). Section C has Water & Electric. Section D is primitive and as such, less crowded. This is a great place Oct - April. Outside of those dates, you'll want Electric so you can run the A/C. Wi-Fi & cell service is questionable. Some spots are good, others are not. While I've done a lot of work out here, try to stay off the devices, PCs and TVs. Enjoy what's out here!!

      Crown King Area (Horsethief Basin lake)

      On Top of the World

      This majestic spot is roughly ~26 miles (from Bumble Bee) of bumpy dirt roads, steep terrain, switchbacks, and the occasional one vehicle bridge. The main city of Crown King has a general store with essentials and a 1 pump fuel station. Prices are steep so best advised to fill up on gas and supplies before heading up. The Hazlitt Hollow campground and Horse Thief Basin Lake are ~7 miles from the main city of Crown King and definitely require a high clearance vehicle (4x4 highly recommended). Horse Thief Lake is truly a magical place and beyond serene. The lake fish species present include Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Channel Catfish, and Muskie. The weather is very similar to Prescott with an elevation of 6,000 ft. Peaceful, quiet, serene, and soothing all describe this area perfectly.

      Great escape outside Phoenix

      Reserved 7 days at Lake Pleasant RV to get familiar with my new camper. Chose the dry site “Vista Point” and at first was a little weary but was pleasantly surprised how many others were doing the same. The views from my spot were pretty epic. Relaxed and fished off the shoreline. Going to have to revisit after doing more research on the fishing here. They do have port a pottys which were actually clean. The convenience store was a cool feature saving me from having to drive 20min to get some drinks. Dillons restaurant smelled delicious but I packed too much food to not cook it up. Didn’t really run into anyone not friendly or in a good mood. I’ll definitely be back here.

      Expensive for dry camping

      $26/night - 2 night minimum. You have to pay an extra $10/night to use the bathrooms/showers. Dump station and water fill up included in $26/night

      Lake Pleasant doesn’t have pleasant views

      Probably a really fun place to stay if you have an ATV. Those are buzzing around all over the place going to and coming from off-roading trails

      Love Crown King! 🌲⛰️🏕️🚙

      We love heading up to Crown King! For dispersed camping, this place is top notch. When you head to town there are services, the saloon, breakfast joint, and pizza place coming soon. It’s not fancy but it’s fabulous! I can’t wait to go hideaway again soon.

      Alamo Lake State Park Campground

      It was ok

      Truth be told I prefer camping at elevation with pine trees etc. It is winter in AZ so that was not an option for this trip. Our friends found this place and booked the sites. We were in the Ramada section. It has electric but no water at the sites. There are about 10 total sites in this section with a bathroom (clean). Our site was not level from to back so we had to lower the camper to about 3 in off the ground in the front. There was a tree which was nice but it also meant I had to park far from the power for the site. The cord reached with just a little slack in it. Ramada section is in the Maintenance area or the campground so I got to see a shed, tractors and Diesel tanks from my door. The lake was about 3/4 mile from our site. The camp rangers were very nice. The campground was clean and the general store was good too. Overall not my vibe for camping.

      Awesome Boondocking experience !

      Scott and Kevin have a great piece of property they love To share! Located in a valley of the Bradshaw mountains just about and hour and a half from Phoenix, this is an awesome getaway- away from it all. I boondocked for a couple days and enjoyed the quiet solitude of the canyon, enjoyed hiking, and the beautiful sunrises and sunsets. It’s a rocky dirt road to get here, but my class C rv easily made it- and I’ve taken it in worse roads. Well worth the effort, give this place a try! thanks Kevin and Scott!

      Great weekend

      This was my first time camping since I was a kid. Was it the most beautiful place? No, unless it’s nighttime because the stars are beautiful way out there. The lake was nice, the campsites were immaculate, the bathrooms were incredibly clean, and the rangers were awesome and friendly.

      Friendly, clean and safe Naturalist community

      Been going here over 6 years and I always look forward to my visits there in the Summer.  They have 2 pools (one is heated), volleyball, darts, horseshoe, pool tables, hot tub, sauna, nature trails, a cafe open in the weekend, events and tons of other things going on. Most of the people there are permanent or semipermanent residents. It is a comfortable, family friendly community, although you it is rare you see children there. I highly recommend and will continue to bring guests to enjoy some Arizona sunbathing!

      Decent and Cheap

      I knew I was coming to a place that wasn’t a destination park, yet I was still shocked by all that was lacking. The spots are spacious, have electric and water, (when working). No WiFi, I was told. This is fine for a stopover, but nothing more. You are right next to a gas station where trucks pull over to sleep. I felt like I was staying in an afterthought or poorly planned place.

      Arizona Treasure

      This is a great spot that we’ve been visiting for years. If you like to explore, look no further. There are loads of trails heading every which way and you won’t be disappointed. Plenty of hiking, off-roading, fishing, etc. for the avid adventurer. Or, if you’re the type who likes to relax at camp with a book, carving, etc. with a good view, there’s plenty of that as well! Try for a site on the outside of any of the loops for better views. C-sites are closer to the trail access.

      Great restaurant! Easy access to highway.

      I’ve parked my camper van here over several weekends. It’s mostly geared towards RV and van parking. Location is convenient for highway access and visiting nearby Arcosanti. The 1950’s style diner has good food. As a camper, I appreciated access to the clean motel bathroom and showers.

      A FAVORITE!!!!

      Alamo Lake State Park is one of our FAVORITES!!!! Great camping with large spots that aren't on-top of each other. Site amenities go from Full-Hookups to primitive. If looking for primitive, there's no need to camp in the campground. There are HUNDREDS (of not thousands) of places to camp outside the park. Look for signs for "The Wayside" and head that direction. Park where you like (off the road). One of the reasons we like the Park (especially in winter) is because the heater often runs all night and it with AC hookups, we don't worry about the heater fan draining the batteries. Also, we know that we can get WiFi in "Section C" and still have great views!!!! As for the Wayside, plan on visiting!!! Wonderful, family owned business that are doing their best to promote SxS, UTV, ATV 4x4 exploring in the area. There is also a runway just West of the restaurant/bar and it's common to see small airplanes visiting for breakfast or lunch.

      Badger Danger

      I fought a Badger twice a night for three nights. The Rangers are aware of the issue but obviously nothing has been done. The Badger I delt with was 20-25 pounds and nasty. It tried to get in my tent and my Clam Shelter. I cleaned up the beach of plastic worms and fishing line. The campsites are kept nice and the showers are very nice. It's a drive to get to the park.
