Mika, and his wife were sooo nice, and helpful. Couldn't ask for nicer hosts. Unfortunately my sister had an issue, and had to be air lifted to the valley Hospital after 7 days because of the extreme heat. Going again in August.

It’s a beautiful place to camp and not far from woods canyon lake and nice hiking trails. I would choose this campsite anytime I camp.

We loved Sharps creek campground. The host Dale was a delight. We were lucky to visit with him. He suggested a great hike to sharps creek and hunter creek for us. He also is a great singer!
The campground is very clean and bathrooms were immaculate. We very much enjoyed our stay. The campground is very close to Tonto Fish Hatchery and many wonderful hikes.
See Canyon and See Springs as well as Horton Creek hike we enjoyed too.

For solar power, Sharp Creek is a bright place. For hiking Trailhead 260 to Drew trail is great. And a short drive to the Rim gives a less challenging walk on paved path.

Excellent location and with all access for our family since we have a son in a wheelchair. Good access to bathroom and space. Exceeded our expectations.
