About Bonito Campground (AZ)

Bonito Campground is located 18 mi northeast of Flagstaff, near Sunset Crater/Wupatki National Monument. Elevation is 6.9 ft. 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.

Norm the host was very accommodating to my large trailer and family. We felt very welcome and the campground was clean. We loved being able to talk to the sunset crater monument. I definitely recommend this campground!

The campground host was very helpful and friendly. We have been in campgrounds where we never saw the host but Norm was very present and available. Sites were spacious and fairly level.
