Cave Creek Group Site is a clean and spacious campsite, ideal for groups with ample fire pits and a covered veranda for inclement weather. It offers a beautiful, secluded setting perfect for escaping the city, especially during the fall. However, there were some issues with trash service and toilet paper availability during the visit.

A lovely group campsite! It was clean and ready for us when we arrived. Plenty of good camping areas and ample fire pits. Our group had an outstanding experience!

Our backpacking club rang in the new year here and it had everything we needed, down to the covered veranda when a bit of rain decided to show up. Lots of room for everyone and highly recommended.

Great spot to get away from the city without having to drive to far. Fall leaves around Creek were great. Only negative was whomever is supposed to do trash service and refill bathroom toilet paper had not been there so all the trash cans were full and overflowing and toilet paper was out. We had small group and brought our own so it worked out

We enjoy using this spot for our church group every spring at Seven Springs Group Campground.

Took some Cub Scouts up in early March. Awesome spot, but really tough to judge the forecast (important with little kids). Nighttime lows were 8-10 degrees lower than expected. Still had a great time with daytime highs of 70, but lows almost got down to freezing.

Great campground for a group up to 150 people. It is right next to Seven Springs Creek which was flowing due to Spring storms prior to us being there. There were hiking trails across the creek and no-one wished to get their shoes wet so we all stayed in the campground. Great ramadas for potlucks. Vault toilets. NO water. We brought our own. Plenty of room to spread out. Our group intends to make this an annual campout.

Nice roomy shaded sites big enough for small trailer/RV. Love the big ramadas and food prep area. Had a visit from a two year old filly from the neighboring ranch! We hiked the Cave Creek Trail #4 2.5 miles in to the Cave Creek Pools and then across the creek another 100 yards to the crested saguaro!

Such a beautiful campground. We loved the privacy of this location. We will definitely come back again. There is no cell service, and I wouldn't recommend driving the road alone or at night.
