Really nice to be down in the cool canyon after hiking in the hot sun all day. Campsites are really close together and well maintained. The entrance is not well marked, other than the huge FULL sign. Our biggest complaint was that we were camped close to the outhouse and it really STUNK! Come on, it was only April and those toilets were disgusting. Would really hate to be there when it really gets hot.

Host had comes blocking all entrance points. Could not find him. Finally had to move comes to get in . He was hostile to deal with. Bad attitude. He needs to be reassigned to a position he is happy with.

We stayed at campsite 4 which we think is the best overall. All the camp sites are pretty close together but being so close to the creek was so nice and an abundance of birds chirping made my heart sing.

The location was excellent for a visit to Sedona. Rustic camping at its best. The site we had was #6 which was a bit difficult to pull into because of the position of the large rocks at the entrance to the site. It was close to the restrooms (pit toilets) which was nice except for the occasional smell. The groundskeeper was very attentive to making sure all sites were clean and ready for the next campers. There was a very nice clean creek running through the camp. We would camp here again!

Best swimming and fishing here. We've been going for years. Butterfies in the spring and blackberries in the summer. Really nice place to relax.
