This is a very nice camp ground, well maintained. The camp hosts are overbearing and nosey. They are always patrolling stopping in at every site , it seems to make sure people have their pets on leashes at all times, making sure people keep camp grounds clean and making sure you leave at exactly 11am. They kept almost harassing people at every site, it was kinda funny to watch them roll up on people for no reason but to ensure that they won’t having a good time , it’s like they forget the reason why people go camping, I understand the need to ensure that the campgrounds are maintained but no one wants to go camping with their authoritative grandpa or weird uncle or nosey aunt Susie ALWAYS looking over their shoulders.

Love the amount of shade and privacy between most of the sites on Oak Loop where we stayed. There was a bit of road noise and music coming from a bar? restaurant? outdoor concert? both nights but we still drifted off to sleep fairly quickly. Outhouse style bathrooms were kept well-stocked with toilet paper.

Living down in Phoenix, we love escaping up north and being among the pine trees. The easy access to bathrooms and dumpster were helpful. We especially enjoyed being so close to Willow Springs Lake and stopping into Payson for a quick bite to eat.

Liked the paved roads and sites. Good having both potable and drinking water available. Clean restrooms. Lots of shade. Many of the camp sites have good spacing between them. A very enjoyable experience. Good location.

The spots are quite large, it is very nice and quiet. The bathrooms are well maintained. Also very close to fishing. I would totally recommend Sharp Creek. We can not wait till next year to return.

In a four day visit I saw the camp host once, garbage can in rest room was full never emptied in the four days also. No car tag, not sure tag, no greeting??? No fire pits emptied, most filled with burnt logs.
