Beautiful, peaceful campsite. Campground host was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and clearly passionate about protecting the wilderness, which I appreciated.

The campground is really lovely, and very well tended by the host, who clearly cares tremendously about protecting the natural resources of the area. I'm grateful that there's a place to camp without RVs and generators. Make your reservation months in advance! Going uphill towards Flagstaff is a great idea -- beautiful views, great hikes, and not the same crowds that you will probably encounter in Sedona and the popular hikes around the town. Those hikes are great, but inadvertently being in the area over spring break meant that we were surrounded by crowds.

Beautiful campsite right along oak creek! The canyon is much cooler than surrounding areas.
The campsite was very clean and very well maintained.

The campground was nicely situated along Oak Creek in the canyon above Sedona AZ on a wooded site that offered good visibility around the grounds and of the canyon. There was easy road access to Sedona and to the many hiking trails of the Red Rock Country. It was well managed and maintained. All sites were ready to use with a good picnic table, fire pit and charcoal grill. The pit toilets were kept clean and stocked. I hope to return as my son and I greatly enjoyed our stay.

Our family stayed mid March in spot 19 which had plenty of room to spread out, but noticed that the campground itself is very chilly…! We’re from Phoenix, so 42 degrees at night is cold for us. Keep in mind that this campground is between 2 rock mountains and the sun finally comes through the mountains at 9 am (in March). Very close to Slide Rock, a must do as a family. Although Sedona was absolutely crazy busy this time of year and we noticed all the prices raised, even at Chipotle we had fun. There’s a creek w/ running water, bathrooms, but no shower. Running well water to wash up though. Note, this campground is right by the road, no matter what spot you have. Grounds keeper/host was very nice and accommodating and mostly kept to himself. We will return in the summer when it’s much warmer because we love the heat! Happy camping!!! 🏕

Great campsites located just outside of Uptown Sedona. Nice picnic table, fire ring, and grill at our campsite! There are lots of trees for shade. I'd recommend sites #4 and #18.

Jerry is doing a great job keeping the campground in an excellent condition.
Restroom has the best smell (not kidding!) that I've ever smelt in an outdoors restroom.
