Great campground. Showers were wonderful. Only reason not 5 stars was the skunk running around our campsite most of the night

Beautiful setting with gorgeous pines across Oak Creek from the road. Many sites have little undergrowth, so lack privacy. The facilities are outdated.

This is a very very nice campground with a spring to swim about and a little area for the kids to jump into the spring river. It's so nice to hear the rushing waters. My only wish is that the campsites limited the campfires for 2 hours at night bc wtih a dozen campfires going at the same time, the smoke gets thick and intense.

Stayed here for two nights on site A07, from Tuesday to Thursday. $26 per night - we stayed at Zion, Bryce and the Grand Canyon, which all cost us less than that.
We were there with a 25 feet RV and found it pretty easy to get into our spot - however, other spots definitely looked trickier to get into, especially because of all the big trash-cans (is it really necessary to place 5 huge bins directly next to each other?) and stones on the side of the road.
Staff is VERY kind and helpful and made us feel more than welcome.
The location is good, you can reach Sedona within 30 minutes by car. There’s no store or anything in walking distance, though, and the store barely has anything to offer - so definitely buy some snacks and drinks before heading here.
The campground itself is located in a very quiet area. However, our neighbours weren’t so quiet. A horribly loud generator was turned on until the very last minute they’re allowed to stay on. Turning on their car at like 6am because it’s a little bit colder.. How on earth are you not able to handle some lower temperatures in the morning and feel the need to heat up your car for like 30 minutes before driving off? - screw the environment, I guess?
The restrooms are nothing more than pit-toilets, with no sink to wash your hands. However, they were fairly clean during our stay.
The praise that the showers are getting from other reviewers is making me wonder - is there some other shower-facility that I don’t know about?! Seriously though.. $6 for an 8 minute shower, when most campgrounds (even the privately owned ones) charge no more than $3, is ridiculous.
You can’t even choose the temperature; it’s either so hot that it almost burns you, or it’s way too cold. The old wooden-doors don‘t close properly and some of the locks are barely working. The shower’s weren’t that clean also, with hair in the drain and on the shower curtain - so why are you charging $6?

Great experience! A bit far from Sedona proper, which is fine for me, less traffic going in and out, but the campground was packed full. It was in great shape, my site was perfect. If you value your solitude, though, you might think about a more secluded site or campground. You are right next to everyone and they can see what you are up to.

Great camp -- in the canyon and trees along Oak Creek. You can hear the highway -- but I don't know how you can get away from that camping in the canyon. This site in particular is very private but if the breeze blows your way, you can really smell the vault toilets -- not pleasant. Also -- the vault toilets were just not as clean as other camps we have been too -- kind of too much of an "ew" factor.

The campground location was great and I found the campsite to be quiet. I had a visit from the local skunk but it was just curious and looking for food. My neighbour ran his generator all afternoon which was disappointing. The pit toilets were not too bad.
