We enjoyed our time here, the kids loved having a playground and wished they would have brought a volleyball, the camp host was very kind and let them use one of his to play with :)
The grounds sit up from the beach and it was a little rocky to get down to the one we played at but it was set in a lovely quiet cove area. Next time we’d like to bring bikes!

Loved the beauty of the campground and the walking path going along the lake. Roosevelt dam, Apache lake and Tonto national monument are a must see. We had lunch at the marina and that was wonderful too.

Very well taken care of campgrounds. There are good bathrooms in the loops as well as a shower area. The “Cane” loop has great views of the lake. Friendly hosts as well.

This campground was absolutely beautiful. Clean and extremely well-maintained facility. Take note, the first shower stall in the ladies' room has the hottest water. And they are free. When leaving the campground take a right, there is a dollar general a few miles down. Go there before going to the IGA across the street. Butcher Hook restaurant - great breakfast. And Finches at the marina really good as well. And the camp hosts, two of the kindest and nicest people I have ever met. Thank you both so much. See you next year, can't wait.

This is one of my favorite places to camp. Very clean campground. Camp hosts are super! Beautiful views and tons of stuff to do in the area. This campsite is across the street from the ones with a lake view, but is still very nice.

Nice campground but unfortunately we had to leave a day earlier than planned (and paid for) due to the constant infernal noise of generators all around. Ruined the experience.
