All campsites are good in this campground. Restrooms clean, water plentiful, beautiful views, especially of Granite Mountain. Guests are friendly and courteous. Nice place to congregate with friends. Easy access to city and hiking places. This was my 7th visit, will be back again.

Camp ground is generally quite, close to Prescott, and Walmart if you forget something. Too hot during full summer (June, July, August) but fantastic in April, May, September, and October.

This is such a cool campground! We visited in April and the bird activity was incredible. Nice hiking too! Composting pit toilets. They have water but water spigots are not garden hose compatible. We had to funnel water into camper. So come preloaded.

- A campsite must have at least one person present the first night and equipment cannot be left unattended for more than 24 hours.
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
