This is a solid spot. Right off the fwy, but you don’t hear any traffic. I didn’t stray too far down the road as it seems to get a bit treacherous the further you go, but there’s plenty of spots before that point. We are a bit closer to others than usual, but the trees provide enough privacy to where i don’t see anyone.

We showed up at night so it was a little hard to find a spot with privacy, it gets crowded here. I’m sure you could venture around and find some space but we didn’t do too much of that since it was so dark. It’s beautiful here, lots of trees and plants.

We planned on only staying up here a couple days, but plans off the mountain fell through and we stayed for 12. It was gorgeous. Huge forest with lots of exploring to do. We got a nice little private spot under a huge tree. There was lots of really nice people staying at the sites at the entrance, but if you go further you can find some privacy. Less than a 5 minute drive from Cloudcroft. We also found a lot of bones from dead animals which was pretty cool.

We came in at night and made the mistake of venturing past the designated camp spots. If you decide to do that PROCEED WITH CAUTION. You’d be fine with 4x4, but we had a van and got stuck in the loose gravel. As long as you don’t venture past the designated spots you’ll be fine. The area was nice and clean, but the spots were generally pretty close for dispersed camping. Our neighbors were very nice and helped us get unstuck with the winch on their jeep.

We were looking for the spot but it was getting dark. I think we may have missed a turn but found a beautiful spot and decided to settle there. The whole forest has tons of great spots, and it’s a great stop on the way to Sedona from Flagstaff.

Stayed here on our way to New Mexico. It was a beautiful spot, very scenic. The dirt was soft as sand, and the area was cleaner than most. The only negative was their was tons of wasps at our site, not sure about the others. They didn’t mess with us but they were annoying like flies.

I loved this spot, stayed here for 11 days. It’s up above Tucson so it’s a bit cooler and you catch some breezes. At first I stayed pretty early along the wrong, right past the trailhead parking. There was a lot of people parking next to me and unloading there off-road vehicles in the morning, so I decided to go further up. It was a great decision, I had a nice small private spot, and an incredible view. My photos don’t do it justice as my camera is broken.

This area was insanely crowded, but that’s to be expected in Sedona nowadays. At first I thought there were several caravans, because sites were lined with vehicles/rvs almost bumper to bumper, but then I realized that was almost every site for the first mile or two. We drove about 40 minutes and finally found a small private spot, but then within the hour we had neighbors. I personally was happy to head out for more privacy.

This spot was pretty cool, popular, but a lot of room to spread out. There were also some hills that you could get a good view at.

We stayed here several days in April. It was a beautiful spot with some cool fungi. Kind of crowded when we went, but we found some privacy.

We stayed here when visiting marble canyon. It was a great spot, super beautiful. It was also super close to the national park. Beware of wind though, we went in early April.

I drove in at night and originally passed the campground because I saw people there, and thought it was a solo spot. It’s a beautiful little spot and has a cool history. It is close quarters to other campers compared to most dispersed camping, but you still have more room than your typical campground.

It’s a fenced area that has a great view and picnic tables. There’s also trash cans. You can probably pitch a tent in the small grass area, otherwise you have to camp in the parking lot in your vehicle.

My girlfriend and I loved it here. Tons of space, and a beautiful view of the sky at night. It may not have Joshua trees but it’s not far from them.
