Nice campsite. Love it's so close to Prescott yet it feels remote.

We love this campground and specifically this campsite. We had another great stay. It seems like each time we go, it is a little different experience as the camp host changes but overall, for what we go for, you cant beat it. Close to town, in the pines, lots of space in this particular site, close to trails, etc.

Sites are close to each other so there’s not much privacy. There’s not a lot of wiggle room to park the 28’ trailer, nor is the area big enough to open an outdoor area rug by the trailer. If you want to sprawl out you must do it in the elevated area. There’s an extra flat pad next to the grill/table area which can be used for a tent, etc. Maybe another spot would have been better. Camp host was nice and helpful. Town is close by. No dump station or water fill for camper/trailer at the campground. There’s a family of deer that wander the campgrounds. Overall 3 out of 5 stars

Grumpy camp host- misread a sign and she was pretty indignant about it. Wasn’t bothering her off duty; just asked a question. Otherwise campsite was good

We were double booked, someone was in our site. Our second site assigned to us was an impossible back in. The trees needed to be trimmed. Our brand new truck and trailer were scratched so bad before we gave up and found another site. The host said we had to go on line to rebook the site. After trying on the website, we were unable to rebook. We finally just stayed in the spot we found the third time, constantly worrying that host would kick us out.

It is a pretty campground, but they need maintenance! We will have to pay someone to buff out our rig. Some of the scratches on our trailer are too big to buff out.

I found that my campsite as well as quite a few other ones were rundown and needing updates. There was no level ground anywhere for pitching a tent. The picnic table was slanting downhill.

The camp host was completely unreasonable. There were many open campsites mid week and I was in space 09 for 1 night (i thought i reserved 2 nights)... the second night (Monday night) I was met by the sheriff around 8pm... we both proceeded to the camp host and she demanded i pack up and move my site to a different site because someone had reserved mine (let me remind you there are plenty of sites open). So instead of letting me pay for the extra night in the same spot i was required to move. I even offered to leave at 8am the next day so the next guest could take my site. So I ended up leaving the camp all together that night and site 09 just sat empty.
