The campground is very clean and neat. I was working all day and returning to the campground at night, so I didn't fully appreciate all the beautiful hiking trails. Bathrooms, water and trash areas are clean and plentiful. The campsites are spaced a little so you are not parked super close to your neighbor. I heard coyotes one night and the pines gave way to a beautiful, star filled sky. I was here in mid-May so it wasn't very hot. The Ponderosa pines would provide dappled shade during the hotter months. I recommend this campground as a great spot close to Prescott and urban activities.

Restrooms were immaculate. Campsite was in perfect condition. Fire pit looked brand new. Neighbors were great and respected rules. Trash was conveniently close. Just an absolutely perfect experience.

Men’s restroom toilet was out of order the entire stay of 5 then 3 days. Smell of sewage was strong in H and D. Campsites and restrooms were very clean. The sites are very well maintained and are spacious. Beautiful area.
