Summary

AI generated

Rock Bluff Group Site offers a beautiful, secluded camping experience with clean vault toilets and plenty of space for tents. Although there is no running water on-site, many appreciated the quiet environment and proximity to the lake for fishing. Improvements such as drinking water access and shaded areas near the campsite would enhance the experience, but overall, visitors expressed a strong desire to return.

Absolutely loved this campsite. We had about 25 ppl here spread around east. Happy to have the potty’s!
It was 30 min doodle bop to get water for the site for the long weekend. Grabbed ice when we could. Beautiful little drive. No complaints here! We will be back!

The groupsite is large. You can get to it in a standard car, but I would not suggest lowered or low clearance vehicles go past the locked gate. There is a flat unpaved parking area where the paved road ends. Vault toilets were clean, but there is no running water on site. We made stops at the Lakeview Campground water spigot to refill camp showers and stuff. The "mini" campsites wrre unkept and did not have enough flat area to comfortable set up a medium or large sized tent, but the campsite has about a 10 minute trail leading directly to the lake. I ended up setting up camp around the parking area, but there were plenty of spots to setup tents behind the outhouses and by the rocks behind the group firepit, which has a grate to cook food on.

This site would be perfect if it had the following:
- a spigot similar to how the main campground has
- tent pads near the mini camp sites

Despite this, being away from a busy campground was nice, even if it is a bit further away from the marina and boat launch.

The restrooms were the cleanest they have ever been. The site was amazing as always! Other that the weather being hotter than the last few years and the lake being so low, it was amazing! The best campground in Southern Arizona!!!!!

Wonderful secluded area to group camp. Very clean vault toilets and they didn't smell. Lots of options to put up tents, tables were a short walk from the parking area, and large fire pit. The only thing that would make it better is if they had drinking water faucet there, but it's not terrible driving up to the other campground and getting water.

It's a pretty area but the challenge as a group site is there is no shade/rain cover or tables near the campsite. There is a paved path that goes downhill to some tables but who wants to carry all the food that far and also it was in the sun much of the day.

We love the quiet nights and mornings!! We had a few more people walk through camp this year than in the past, but it's usually really private and lovely. Camp Host was awesome too!

We absolutely loved the private group Campground at Parker Lake. I would definitely recommend if you have a group of people and you want to make it more private where you do not have other people walking through your Campground I would book it. The only downfall to the campground is the water is quite a hike away
