One of the best locations in Arizona by far. This campground is easily accessible in a truck and has plenty of parking for friends and family. Tons of room and easy access to the water!

Beautiful location! We love Apache Lake for kayaking and camp here every year first of May. It is perfect on the weekdays but VERY busy on the weekends. Composting toilets are pretty smelly, people just won’t close toilet lids and doors to the bathroom even though there are specific instructions. The variety of birds is amazing. We had a resident Vermillion Flycatcher in our campsite and several male and female Cardinals, yellow warblers, Lucy’s warblers and Vireos. Always something to do!

Great campground many sites on lakeshore. far apart, with large flat areas for tents, many trees for shade, great views of lake. Some spots away from shore were small and shoulder to shoulder, so keep that in mind. November almost empty thru week, 80' clear weather made peaceful tenting and kayaking! Toilets are distance apart though. Pull up kayak to campsite shore, have campfire and enjoy sunset. Javalina and coyote packs come thru campsites, keep dogs controlled. Are club will be back.

This is our favorite Arizona Camping spot. Excellent hosts and great respectful campers. Well maintained campground. Vault toilets are vault toilets. Not sure what the park can do to improve the smell but they’re pretty smelly but clean as could be expected

Love this campground. I do wish people would pick up their trash better after using a campsite. Sad to see humans who don't care enough to get their rubbish into a bin.

Campground was well maintained and the camp host made rounds in the evening to remind people to shut off their generators and turn down their music, which was appreciated.

Spot 63 was very nice with tree cover. Close to toilet and close to the water. Toilets were stinky but useable. Only bummer was our loud cursing neighbors. Glad we didn’t have young kids with us. Will return for sure.
