I fairly enjoy this place. The river runs along and there's natural pools for the kids. Showers and ice available.

The campsite was very crowded and not much of a view. It close to Sedona so I guess that’s why it’s popular. We left after the first night and found far better campsites with a view. Overall not a bad spot, just not at all what we expected.

We hadn't been to Cave Springs for a couple of years. The last time we were there it was overrun with people. And so smoky from campers fires my throat hurt. This time was a very VERY pleasant experience. It was uncrowded and it seemed that nature had rebounded. There were squirrels everywhere, robins, blue jays and lots of other birds and the greenery was lush. Even hear that someone saw a deer. I don't know if it was because they changed it to make it mostly reservation only or if the lack of visitors during covid played a role. We saw many campsites with reservation signs on them but with no one there. It was quiet and cool. We had a group of between 15 and 21 people across the week and had 6 or 7 campsites on the A loop. We would gather for meals, especially dinner and only once were asked by the management to be quieter. In the past with a group that big, they always hassled us. The management people were great. As soon as people checked out, they were there cleaning the campsite for the next reservation. The creek was beautiful as always, especially not having tons of people leaving trash and dirty diapers as in previous years. The creek was down, not even reaching the road. Whatever you guys are doing to Cave Springs... keep it up. We thoroughly enjoyed it this year, even tho the showers weren't working.

Staff at front office were friendly, very informative and ready to help. The Camp Hosts were just as helpful, cheerful and very busy.

Have been camping here for over 46 years. A lot of changes throughout the years. The last 10 plus years had been a little uneasy as the hosts had been too strict with everything. I had 5 spots reserved and we were all very happy with all the hosts. Younger generation was absolutely wonderful.
