This campground is in a nice spot if you want to be in oak creek canyon, and the site host is very sweet, however each site is tiny and you literally have not one bit of privacy whatsoever. The spot was so small that the person next to us had their tent set up two feet away from our fire pit. We ended up not staying there once we checked in and saw how tiny the spot was and realized we wouldn’t have been able to even have a fire. I can’t even believe they have the audacity to charge $30 for that! Don’t waste your money here unless you enjoy camping on top of one another

Awesome campground with great hosts! This is the cleanest campground I’ve ever stayed in! Each site is thoroughly cleaned between campers, even the tables are scrubbed. Bathrooms are cleaned several times daily. Becky, Frank and Jennifer are friendly and welcoming, and keep the campground quiet and safe. Beautiful and shaded. Highly recommend!

Nothing beats sleeping to the sound of a creek. Well, maybe drinking your morning coffee alongside the creek as the sun starts to hit the rocks above the forest canopy. It is a beautiful location and not far from uptown Sedona.

This is the best camp site we have ever been to. The hosts, Jen and Frank work diligently to keep the bathrooms (vaulted toilets) incredibly clean. The sites are very well maintained.
Now, there is only room for 1 car per site. There are some parking spots up the road that could be used for that extra vehicle, but best bet is to either limit to 1 car, or book 2 sites.
This campground is right on Oak Creek. Sites 14, 15 and 16 have private paths directly down to the water.
There is road noise as it’s right off the road. The creek really covers it up and at night it’s all creek and bug noises so it’s incredibly relaxing.
This campground is not very private. We actually enjoyed chit chatting with the hosts and our neighbors so this was not a bad thing. If you’re looking for exclusion, there are other sites up the road.
We loved this campground. We did have to book months ahead of time. It was worth the wait!!!

The campground was great. Only 18 sites total so I was lucky to get a spot for our Sedona trip. Campground does not allow music so you don’t have to worry about loud music going all hours of the night, which is nice. The highway is right next to the campground but it just becomes background noise once you’re settled in. There is a very nice creek that runs next to the campground as well so be sure to check that out and get some photos.

The quality of the "potable" water by sites 10 and 11 is not good. The water has a high degree of turbidity, suspended particulates, and a bad taste. Otherwise the campsite is good.
