Wonderful view and site! Can be windy but not a deal breaker. Got to see a bunch of Javalinas!
The last 25 mins to the camp from the bridge are through a dirt road. Avoid if there is rain or possibility of rain.

The five mile or so narrow road getting there could use some improvement but once you are there it is worth it! Another unfortunate event was a drunk camper across from us who came knocking on our door with incredibly foul language to yell at us bcse we had generator on during allowed time. We informed the host and he went to talk to offender and recommended we look into solar power. Removing this incident, we had a great time and will be back!

Great campsite. The grounds and the lake are incredible. The ride in to the campsite from Roosevelt Dam is a narrow dirt road that is wash-boarded and bumpy but worth it. The campsite itself is a mile off the Apache Trail and paved so no dust from cars driving around it. Enjoy the tranquility of a cell phone-less beautiful water playground, launch your kayak from a campsite a respectable distance away from other campers, it's a favorite Arizona campground in the Fall, Winter and Spring. It's Phoenix Hot in the summertime.

Other users were VERY loud, all day and all night. The quiet hours posted, 10pm to 6am were entirely ignored. Some users were playing music and having loud conversations until past 11 am and generators were running at 5 am.
Other than that, the facility is great, the water was great for paddling and as long as we could get away from the loud neighbors, we had a great time!

Driving to the spot was beautiful and the nightsky there was absolutely gorgeous.

Nice access to Apache Lake allowing boats to be left on the beach, rather than loading and unloading with each use. Sad to see the loss of so much mesquite tree shade from all the pruning that was done. Pit toilets seemed more odiferous than during my last visit, with some added wear and tear inside. Hosts were nice and engaging.

Very clean facilities, rangers were incredibly kind, great views, peaceful. I loved the dirt road along the river leading to the campsite. I traveled by motorcycle. A total gem.

No issues with the individual camp site, or the area. The issue is with the pit toilets. I have never experienced such a rank and disgusting situation in my 47 years of life. Absolutely unusable. The stench was unbearable. I've used a lot of pit toilets, but I may never return to Burnt Corral for this reason.

Camp hosts were amazing! Good site with access to the water, grounds were clean, bathrooms were well taken care of and lit well! Campfire rings need some work but overall a GREAT time! Definitely will be back!
