Campground not as crowded as we expected for a long weekend, well maintained and nice to see campsites on lake shore. Cliff dwellings near by are worth a visit. rare to find dwellings that anyone can actually walk thru.

This spot is worth the drive. The fire years back erased a lot of the greenery but the entire camp is still in great shape. The campsites are mostly lakeside, shade is abundant, and all I saw have fire pits and a bench. The entire camp is spread across a couple hundred yards of a well maintained grove. There's a boat ramp that's big and easy to maneuver, and a dock which you can fish off. If you have a boat, this is the spot. If you don't, it's a paddle boarding or kayaking paradise. The lake was glass during the day. The winds kicked up pretty good at night. You also don't have to worry about raccoons or skunks like some other grove campgrounds (like inSedona). The camp hosts are awesome also. They've been the caretakers for years and it shows they take a lot of pride in the area. It's a good spot. Go check it out.

Excellent site! Very clean and kept. Our small SUV made the drive to the site fine but the weather conditions were perfect.

We had an awesome time at Burnt Corral though the lake was empty of fish (we heard it was due to an algae bloom). It was quiet and beautiful. We loved the path to Upper Burnt Corral which was deserted and we had a private beach cove to ourselves. However some irresponsible campers had not properly buried their waste which led to some upsetting surprises when our dogs found them... hoping that if we return, the beach will have been cleaned up some.

Camp hosts were friendly, and a good laugh. Kept a realistic eye on the place including being concerned for a hunter missing overnight, but he returned the next morning.

The campsite was amazing; my site was near the water and I had spectacular views! Not many campers at the time so it was super quiet! I think I met all the campers there and everyone was so nice!

The camp hosts were amazing! I had an unfortunate event happen (locked myself out of my truck); no cell phone service but the host had a satellite phone and was able to find someone to make the trek to the campground! Lifesaver.

The road to the site can be a bit scary but they keep it well grated and the views of the lake are jaw dropping! Bathrooms were ok... never a fan of vault toilets but they were clean!

Can’t wait to go back!

Wow! What a beautiful campground! Lots of shade and incredible views. The grounds and bathrooms were well maintained during our visit and the hosts were super helpful. Make sure you bring your own wood. They do not sell any at the campground.

Great campground, incredible views but I would not choose site #21 again. It's very small without any level ground to pitch a tent well and zero shade. We had the sun right on top of us most of the day.
