This is one of the few forest campgrounds that is open in the winter and we greatly appreciate that it is open. Sure, we could go to one of the desert campgrounds but we like the forest.
The campground was in great shape. Very clean. There wasn't any water available on site but we were expecting that due to the freezing temperatures at night. There are lots of places in town that will let you fill up your RV water tanks for free. The hosts were friendly and helpful.
We hiked up the mountain on one of the trails that were in the campground. Great for rock hounds.
We appreciated the close proximity to Prescott on this trip because our propane wouldn't work so we went to town to get a camping heater and some more warm clothes for the girls. It was in the mid 20's at night so it was nippy. But right around us there were four tent campers!

For being so close to town did not feel busy at all! Similarly, "gravity park" downhill mountain biking parking lot just across from campground but we had no idea until the day we left, well used but noise/traffic didn't reach us. Lots of forest trails from the campground including over to Goldwater Lake. 10 minutes to town center but in the forest, awesome. Clean, well kept, great place.

I love White Spar because it’s open all year, especially for those of us that love to winter camp! I certainly wish the cellular service was stronger, but it is what it is…

There's lots of room here but no rooms. Still give it five stars close to everything but yet far enough away to enjoy the outdoors a wonderful host and a great time enjoying the outdoors

What a great spot, especially if you’re MTB’n! Super clean very quiet campground. Plenty of spots here available when we came through in mid January. Manny and his wife were the CG host and take great care of this place. Super friendly guy too that goes out of his way to make you feel at home. No doubt we’ll be back.
