About Bonito Campground (AZ)

Bonito Campground is located 18 miles northeast of Flagstaff, near Sunset Crater/Wupatki National Monument. Elevation is 6,900 feet. Bonito Campground is named for the Bonito Lava Flow which oozed across this high desert plain some 900 years ago. That river of liquid rock, now frozen forever, is just one of the many remnants of volcanic activity which lend an otherwordly appearance to this starkly beautiful place.

We enjoyed the campground. It felt like we were boondocking from the backside of the campsite, which we normally enjoy. However, it was very tight along the campground drive. Our trailer was very close to the other trailer along the other side of the drive. Not terrible but there was a lot of activity with pedestrians and auto traffic in that tight space.

Great place to stop on our way from Phoenix to Colorado. We spent one night - the spot was pretty level for our trailer, bathrooms were clean, and firewood and ice were both available for purchase. The hosts were nice and knowledgeable about the area.

Campground is quiet. Sites are spaced far apart and bathrooms are super clean. This was our second stay and we will be back!
