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.

This is a nice, clean, well kept place. Weather was great in early October when I visited. Sites are decently spaced, but there is line of sight between most of them.

Campground was very well taken care of and neighbors were awesome. Only complaint would be about one of the camp hosts, the rest of them were great but only one stood out, she came off rude most of the time she came around. Not sure if she was like that with other groups but she definitely came off rude with our group.

We've been camping at this campground for about 40 years! It's always clean and fresh! And, the hosts have always been outstanding as well!
Happy the fire missed it a while back and look forward to another stay next season!
