Manzanita had clean bathrooms, respectful neighbors, and a great camp host. Idid make a mistake, though. While the campground is tent-only, I did not realize that site 10 was more like a walk-in site. We have a rooftop tent, and we had to walk past site 9 every time we went from our site to our car and tent.

Easy to find! Level ground for tent camping and short walks to the bathroom! River front area and lively river sound to lull you to sleep!

Nice tent campground close to Sedona. The road noise wasn't too bad, and you can also hear the stream at night. Firewood is $8/bundle, I would recommend buying it before getting there.

Not many people, probably from the time of year but the spot was great. Only about 15 min away from the town of Sedona, had its own trails, little river, etc. the rangers were nice and helpful.

I didn't realized it's a very tent oriented campsites. They indicated this in their website, but i was planning all along to sleep in my Van. My vehicle and my campsite #10 is quite far from each other, unlike most campsites where you usually park your car at your campsite. This means carrying all your gears all the way to the campsite. (Approx 30 yds). Other than that, and not all campsites have the same issues, this place is beautiful. We camped in Nov, so it was a but cold.
