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.

it is a nice clean campground, and we were immediately greeted by the campground host. Our site was nicely paved, and it was easy to get the camper set up for the night. Restrooms were clean as well and I look forward to staying here again. The only catch was since I was staying on a Friday night I had to book Saturday night as well.

We only spent one night there, but found the facilities well maintained and the host was exceptionally friendly and courteous. We wouldn't hesitate to camp there again.

Love this property. It’s clean and well maintained. The sites are large and spaced well giving you good separation between your neighbors. Thanks to the hosts CJ and Andy who made it a very pleasant experience.
