Onlineap and descriptions don't do the campground justice. Some campsite are wonderful, large and spacious with easy access. Others are small and very difficult to maneuver around. On paper the site we reserved should have been fine but once we arrived we were not able to back the camper in. Too tight and not sized per the online description. Luckily the hosts were amazing and had a better spot for us. If we could book this site again we'd definitely go back but if not then we'd avoid. For some reason not all the loops are shown on the website and this was one of them. I recommending visiting the campground prior to reserving just so you have an idea of the layout. Beautiful area though.

Everytime when winds blew, the bad smell of restroom came with it.The smell followed me for days after I returned from camping.
Other than that everything was okay.

This was our second trip staying at Cave Springs. We had a secluded campsite by the creek. It was super great. The staff was friendly and helpful. The main bathrooms are newer and had sanitizer dispenser. The bathrooms by us were older but still well kept.

The campground was pleasant, quiet, and shady. Toilets were easily accessible and clean. The shower tokens are a bit pricey, so we recommend sharing a shower. It's a small space, but 2 people fit. The water turns on as soon as you insert the token, for 8 minutes only, so have everything ready before you insert the token, so you can get everything done before the water shuts off.

There is a trailhead just across the highway from the campsite entrance that you can walk to, Harding Springs Trail, that we highly recommend.

Great campground with water, toilets, picnic tables and fire pits. (I did not partake of the showers). Very nice and helpful hosts at the office for check in and check out, assisted me in purchasing firewood and a fire starter. I saw several beautiful Stellar Jays, a few huge Grackles, and I was even paid a visit by a little skunk near my campfire! The sun goes down early in the canyon this time of year and it was very chilly after dark. Beautiful trees and changing colors. Conveniently located; I drove a short way to park at the West Fork trailhead and hike. Only downside, my campsite A10 was rather close to the road 89A and I heard cars driving by often, even during the night. Earplugs helped. Next time I would choose a campsite further from the road, but I booked last minute so there was not much available. Highly recommend this campground; I would camp there again! Loved it

Very quiet, not even music playing— exactly what you should get when you want to escape the city and relax with Mother Nature. Beautiful creek with fishing activity. Beautiful woods. Very friendly staff. Respectful campers. Dog friendly. Bathroom and trash and water all very easily accessible. Bon fire w grill attached.

When we go camping at Sedona, Cave Springs is our first choice. Absolutely love the campground and the staff who works there. Surrounded by trees, plenty of bathrooms, and plenty of sites to choose from.

We enjoyed this beautiful clean campground for 3 days, 2 nights. The bathrooms are clean and didn't have a strong stench. The campsites are pretty close to each other in LOOP F. It was a short walk to get to the trail that leads to Oak Creek. Camp hosts were great and helpful, they delivered us our wood for the campfire. There’s a little shop when you first enter the campground. It’s a short drive to go into Sedona where there’s so much to explore. Can’t wait to come back when it’s warmer to enjoy the water!
