Always love this campground. Skunk in campground and neighbors were sprayed which wasn’t a pleasant odor.
Host very nice to change spots because rain pooled original spot.

The camp hosts were excellent! We had to book two different reservations, thus we had two different sites for the four nights we stayed. Our tent was kind of big for the 2nd campsite and the hosts were very accommodating at letting us select another available site without hassle! They were great about keeping the place clean and even nicely asked people to shutoff their generators exactly at 9 pm. This is probably the first positive impression I have had with any camp host in any campground country wide!
As for the campground, it is no joke that this place is popular on the weekends- think 4-10 people per site with some sites right on top of each other. Moreover, the online campground map is visually misleading and you can't get a good view of the campground layout on Google Maps either. It's basically a crap shot on how close your neighbors are going to be or how large your campsite will be.
P.S. The skunks are very abundant as soon as the sun goes down!

Positives of E07: nice layout and away from other campsites. Negatives of E07: close to bathroom, so the smell wafts over from time to time. Also, there is a skunk den nearby. Dump your trash before sundown (they are very bold and will get close to get to your trash!).

The campground is beautiful, that's the only good thing. The bathrooms ruined it for us, they were disgusting!!! There were always at least two of the four bathrooms locked. That is annoying that the handles can lock you out. The smell was horrible and they didn't seem clean. We regularly camp at a different campground with pit toilets that are amazingly clean and don't smell. It seemed like these needed to be emptied. There was also a large group of teenagers in the camp that were always walking thru sites and being very loud at all times. I never saw any camp hosts come thru to monitor that. We definitely won't come back here, not sure why it's so popular

Cave Springs was a great campground. The camp hosts were excellent, and the facilities were clean and tidy. If you’re staying in the Sedona area, the extra few miles drive is worth it.

Beautiful place, but we could not get our 24ft fifth wheel into a space the website said could accommodate a 30 ft RV! No way, maybe a pop up trailer! There was a clear height obstruction for taller fifth wheels and RV’s that should be noted on the website If we could have seen the campground map we were given upon check in, I would not have chosen this space due to the sharp angle of the approach to the parking spot. I reserved the spot way in advance, close to the river, as I cannot walk far. Campground hosts were not very helpful, except to give us a site no one wanted. When we told them we couldn’t fit, they immediately gave our reserved space away! No help at all! We were still parked in the next space over trying to figure out if we could approach the space differently, and someone came up and said they just purchased that space. Also, campground is very run down. Parking spaces are far from level, roads full of potholes, bathrooms are filthy. Also on our second day, we were surrounded by a very large group of middle school children (6 spaces) The problem was a group that large should only be permitted to camp in the group area, kids were respectful but still kids and should have had their own area. Not their fault, website shouldn’t allow it. We were also not told when we were moved that a large group was coming. We were also not given the option of getting our money back, even though they re-rented the space!. We would have left and camped near Flagstaff. Don’t think I will ever camp here again, it was a truly horrible experience! Rangers were awesome and helpful, but the reservations are contracted out, so they can’t help with any problems with campsites. Recreation.gov is doing a super poor job. Beware of the misleading pictures on their website, the one we couldn’t get into looked HUGE in the photo and on the map!!! Go to an AZ state park campground instead, they are clean and well maintained!
