Bonito Campground (AZ)

When we arrived the first thing the campground host said to us was that we owed $40 more for two nights, which was almost as much as the campground fee. We had towed a car behind our Class B motor home and our daughter and son-in-law were visiting us. Most campgrounds allow visitors to park for free. In addition, the place where he suggested we park our vehicles was about 400 yards across a ravine through the woods in the adjacent campground. He finally decided we could park at the amphitheater, but he mentioned again the across-the-woods option when he drove by later. The positive about our stay was that the campground is near Sunset Crater which was a nice addition.

Stayed on site 25 and really enjoyed our time there. The bathrooms were easily accessible and really enjoyed how spacious the campground was. It was nice to not feel like you were on top of your neighbor. Also really enjoyed the beautiful open space behind us. Only thing to keep in mind is that the pavement for your vehicle is not level to the campsite. There's a gradual hill down to the site, of which our son enjoyed rolling his monster truck down it. :)

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.

Great location, hiking right outside the CG, and the hosts were great!
