Great outdoor camping for year-round! It's nice and shaded, probably better for the summer. We stayed in February so would have enjoyed having a bit more sunshine, but it is not a deal-breaker for winter camping. We booked Site 4, which after seeing the other sites we deemed as one of the best. It is on the corner of the campsite so it feels a bit more private than some of the others. It was also right next to a water source, though the water source itself is on a different site number. Noises on the road were not an issue at all. Campground stayed pretty quiet and chill. Camp host was friendly, bathrooms decent enough for camping. Would definitely camp there again!

I was at site 19. The tent pad needs to be raised or filled in so that you are not in a hole. This is especially important if it rains or is wet. The water can sit in that hole. Please fix.

Having said that I love the campground... just fix that hole and it would be perfect.

Beautiful small campground next to the creek. I loved listening to the flowing water at night so relaxing. The location is perfect, short drive into Sedona and hiking. We stayed at site #4 and it was perfect just enough privacy and right next to the short trail to the creek.
