The campground hosts here were AMAZING! I was traveling and camping along the way as a single handicapped lady, and every staff member I met was kind and helpful. Despite being very busy and completely full, the campsites and bathrooms were clean. The location of this campground right in the middle of Oak Creek Canyon and situated against the canyon cliffs and boulders is spectacular. The temperature is definitely cooler than down in the valley of Phoenix - which I thoroughly enjoyed. The showers and small campground store (which offers wood, ice, souvenirs, and campground groceries/needs) is a BIG plus! I was located in tent site A-1 - which was a large campsite with lots of shade. Truly a wonderful experience.

Love this campground! Bathrooms were tidy, access to running water, cute swimming hole nearby. Perfect for kids! Road noise is inevitable, but personally, I like to be reminded I’m not in the middle of nowhere. Nice shady trees too!

Awesome place to get out of the heat! Despite it being so Full/Crowded the host kept it spotless! Bring ear plugs for sleeping! It’s a canyon so everything is amplified!

Cave Spring is a beautiful campground with mountains on each side and a beautiful creek running by it. The campsites are good sized. The people working there are incredibly nice and helpful. The bathroom is the only negative as it is basically an outhouse. But they keep it clean and it doesn't smell. We had a wonderful stay there and met a lot of great people.
