I Mountain Bike, so it's really great to be right next to Bean Peak trailhead. Also, only a short drive drive to Thumb Butte, and many other stellar trailheads. Old Town Prescott has many good Eateries, and Saloons, where you can Rehydrate and Refuel.

Beautiful campground, easy to park, picnic table and fire ring were really nice! Clean campground, trails right there, tent pad perfect. I don’t prefer vault toilets but they were clean.

The online pictures for the reserved sites are completely wrong. We booked site -44 that didn’t have the usual picnic table, was way too small to park a car or put up big tent. The camp host was very rude and was giving various reasons of why the site is out of order. They were also complaining about how much work it is to clean the sites after use. We ended up booking another site with no option of refunding the original site. Unless you live in the vicinity, I would highly recommend NOT booking this campsite.

The campground felt much smaller than what was advertised on the website, and the sites were packed too close together. One of our sites was also left in bad shape, full of debris from a recent rain. We pointed it out, but no one came to clean it. In the end, we had to clear it ourselves just to set up our tent. These campsites are also right next to a neighborhood, so you get a fair bit of road noise.

Everything was good, some of the vegetation. Needs to be trimmed back for access through the roads in our campsite. Number 27, we couldn't put a bonfire because the tree was hanging over the place where you would put if you're fire at. looks like some of the homeless people stay there. They're dropped off my vehicles, campsite across from 27, there must have been 6 cars there on the night we were there. It was hard to get through. I believe you're only allowed one at the most 2 cars.

It rained most of the time, but the weather can't be controlled. I absolutely loved the sound of all the frogs coming out after the rain. The thunder and lightning was actually fun. I camped around mid August. I did not see one mosquito. Lots of ants on my tent, but they aren't bothersome. The camp ground was pretty quiet this time around. Be sure to see photos when choosing your site. I didn't like 36 too much because the ground wasn't level enough for my tent. The pricing is worth it. I hated the toilets. So many flys in the toilet. All around, it was camping so I just had fun in general relaxing. The rain was a nice plus for me to listen to.

On a map this campsite looks very close to the city of Prescott and while it very close the campsite doesn't feel it. It was honestly a great location for me to camp at night and also enjoy the hiking trails and downtown of Prescott. Camp Host was nice.
