Wildlife watchers will find diverse animal activity at this dispersed camping area along Forest Road 413 in Prescott National Forest. Campers report encounters with deer, coyotes, foxes, and even mountain lions, while cattle frequently graze through the area.
The dirt road provides easy RV access to numerous flat camping spots spread across the forest. Cell service varies significantly by carrier - some campers experience full 5G coverage while others find no reception at all. Most sites offer limited shade, making summer camping challenging. Rain transforms the area into muddy conditions that can trap larger RVs, so weather monitoring is essential. The campground serves as a base for boondocking options around Prescott National Forest and provides access to multiple hiking trails throughout the surrounding forest.
