We never went to the campground as we heard that it had been closed and evacuated because of a forest fire nearby.

Pleasant camp hosts wiling to assist and answer any questions. Beautifully kept grounds as well. You can tell the camp hosts care about the property. We already booked 2 more trips to Sharp Creek!

Very clean campground who is maintained by the sweetest older couple. Quiet, beautiful space. Fit our 37 ft fifth wheel no problem. Very close to the rim and Forest Lake.

Always clean and tidy. I love the friendly camp host this year, welcome back, we missed you! Thought it was going to be dry but the rain came and it was beautiful. New Solar panels worked fine, but I did make them portable so positioning was not a problem because of shade.

Sharp Creek is a wonderful campground for a quick getaway from Phoenix’s hustle and bustle and of course the heat.
