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.

Wonderful campground. Spaces are wide apart, very clean. Quiet and well kept. It's now one of our favorites. However there is no cell service at all.

Consistently a clean, quiet and spacious campground with helpful hosts and friendly guests. Beautiful trees throughout. Excellent base for activities around Flagstaff and south rim of the Grand Canyon.

Loved the open space and being a bit more remote while still having clean toilet facilities. It was also the only place we stayed that was cool enough to have a campfire. Quiet and spacious.

Great place to camp. Restrooms very clean. Camp host available when needed. No Wi-Fi to speak of, but with a WeeBoost we were able to check and send messages.
