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.
