Campsites are a little tight to back in camper trailers but we managed. Lots of hiking and mountain biking opportunities. During our 4 nights there was significant turnover of other campers but it was a relatively quiet campground.

Facilities are lacking and dirty. There is no water for trailer nor any other hook ups. Beautiful location though.

The bathroom by my site was disgusting. The smell is so bad. Someone peed in the corner and staff left it there. Worse bathroom out of all of the campgrounds in Prescott.
If you are relying on solar, good luck. I've stayed in 4 different spots here and they are far too shaded to have a smooth and productive solar day. There are a couple of spots that are good, but good luck getting them. And the reservation website isn't helpful at all to assess how much sun you will get.
I don't hate it here. The tall pines are beautiful! Plenty of birds and small critters. For the size of the place it's fairly quiet. And the water tastes good. Unlike Lynx Campground!!!
Be aware this is bear territory.
Verizon is hit or miss here. Definately not fast!!!

Campsite was well-marked and the bathrooms were clean as far as pit toilets go. Distance from town was nice.

Several sites are very short and hard to get into with a trailer

I truly love this campground, but until the "volunteers" decide that cleaning the bathrooms and picking up trash are a necessity I cant give them a better review. The bathroom when you first come in smelled so bad that it made me sick to my stomach. And the dried on pee all over the seat is inexcusable. As well, there's too much shade in most of the campsites. If you have solar you had better look before you reserve a site. The phone service there is awful. You can send a text, but good luck with anything that uses data. No weather, emails, or anything that people generally do. And the road noise there is awful. You will hear it all day and night - stupid motor bikes roaring thoughtlessly by, big trucks, and the lovely folks who think its cool to have a screaming diesel nightmare.
What I love is its beauty. But with all of the other factors, the experience reminds me of being in the city - without internet.
