Burnt Corral Campground

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

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.

1st: Campground hosts are the best! Very hospitable, they made regular passes through the campground and willing to help. We felt very welcome.
2nd: Absolutely beautiful campground. Well cared for. Campground and sites were clean and well kept.
3rd: We have a new favorite spot in Arizona

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.

Very scenic and quiet. Camp hosts were very nice. Pit toilets were clean.

This is an out-of-the-way place that isn't out of the way. The only issue is the 7 miles of dirt road, with hairpin turns and you don't want to be on it when it rains. I took my 24-foot class C RV not a problem. Was able to get a campground along the lake. Beautiful. Great place for a couple of days of relaxation.

We have been going to Apache Lake for about the past 10 years now. We usually go 2 or 3 times in the spring and 2 or 3 times in the fall. It is our favorite place to camp, except for in the summer, when it gets a little toasty. I have to say that Burnt Corral Campground was going downhill about 3 or 4 years ago, when there were campground hosts that did not care about the place. The bathrooms were sometimes filthy, with no toilet paper. Many sites would have groups of 20 or 30 people, with loud music playing all day and night. It had turned into a "party" place instead of family camping. Then Jim and Debbie came along. They were awesome! They sincerely cared about the place, enforcing the rules, helping people when they needed it, and making themselves visible and available multiple times a day. It has turned back into a place that you want to bring a "small" family group, or a good place for just a couples retreat. There was no loud music, and no trouble of any kind. I am sad to say that when we were there 2 weeks ago, it was Jim and Deb's last week. We sincerely hope that you find a replacement for them that cares about the campground as much as they did.

Beautiful location and really clean bathrooms.

We reserved space 39 but moved to a first come first site, 44. It’s our favorite spot but beware it gets really windy. Our trip was perfect. Campground was a lot busier than our previous trip but everyone was very nice. Once again, I can’t say enough good things about the campground hosts. Excellent people, very helpful and do a great job keeping the campground clean and safe. This is definitely our favorite camping destination we have found. This is the first time we took our dog and everyone obeyed the leash rule.

Very cool campground.
