site #8 is not at all flat, we moved to site #12. There was no campground host to talk to, and recreation.gov could provide no help they defer to the on site staff (nonexistant). Nice good sized sites, some in the sun, some in the tree, close to town and very close to the new Beans bike flow park. But still quiet.

I was surprised that there was no attendant! No one checked that we paid for our space. The dumpsters were overflowing onto the ground but were emptied before we left. Unfortunately, a lot of trash blew around. We also counted on buying firewood.
All said, we had a great stay and were fortunate to have great campers near us.

This is a nice campground, definitely in the forest but not too far from services in Prescott. However, there is no Campground Host so campsites are not tagged, the dumpsters were overflowing with trash all over the ground, there is no water available, and the bathrooms are very old and stinky.

We were trying to get a site near our friends and there are a ton of handicap sites! Great to have handicap but Im pretty sure your campground has 10
Also every single garbage was overflowing and the bathrooms were not maintained
Love this campground location for riding trails and it is beautiful so hoping it will be better maintained next visit

Also site 15 is really bad to get level!!!

It’s one of our favorite campsites ever. But this last go around we had random people camping right behind our spot that shouldn’t have been there. They were not even paying customers.

Sites are easy to access, most have lots of shade, and spaced out. Ours, and a few others, weren't the most level and to the full extent of our leveling capabilities we were still slightly off (Site 7). Still, a great site that's easy to get to. Loved the hiking trails nearby for the kids, Goldwater Lake is nearby, and downtown Prescott weekends are great for the fam. [Pulled a 27' travel trailer, filled up at Blue Compass RV, 6850 AZ-69 with 24 hour fill and dump]

Unless you’re hard of hearing, the experience at White Spar Campground would be better if it weren’t adjacent to Highway 89. During the day and especially on weekends the traffic noise is loud. Motorcyclists love this route and they come roaring up the highway, many with music blaring. Not a pleasant experience.
