Great spot with river and swimming hole access. The ranger was personable and helpful. Amazing spot to camp if you enjoy primitive camping.

Manzanita was an excellent place, camp host very friendly, bathroom was clean, we really enjoyed hearing the creek, good shade from the trees, and quiet at night. closer to a lot of things in Sedona.

The host was excellent! Very informative and great to chat with. The campsite was larger than expected. The creek access was also much closer than expected.. along with the swimming pool at the end of the creek. Looking forward to my next visit at Manzanita Campground, thank you!

Love love love this campground. Even though it’s busy/crowded like most campgrounds, it is very quiet.

Relaxing in the cool creek pools and then warming up on the red rocks is divine! We love this site when in the Sedona area.

Fyi - lots of kids and families for those interested.

Clean and friendly Camo Host Heather and spouse (sorry didn’t get a last name) both worked efficiently as soon as camp site was cleared they both cleaned them and got them ready for next camper and went around to make sure we were ok. Creek was fully stocked of fish - however the creek should be available only to campers here at campground to avoid crowds and they litter and leave. Just my only complaint

I have been going to this campsite for many years . Usually the hosts are great . Always there for assistance, bathrooms stocked and clean. At their site to sell fire wood or just talk this time the camp host didn’t come by to see how things were they were hard to find , bathrooms were filthy and low on tp. No one welcomed us or even checked us in until 3rd day. This seams to be an issue at other camp sites as well as some friends of mine had same experience at sitgraves national forest . Not sure what’s going on but this year was lowest quality experience with hosts…. Otherwise great trip as I love camping.
