Stayed two nights in late January. Got down to the 30s both nights, and the canyon walls are high, so you don't get much sun to warm up during the day. Clean vault toilets, potable water, soil not very compacted (was able to fully stake my tent). Nice to fall asleep to, and wake up to, the river running. Campfires were permitted when I was there, you can buy wood onsite for $7 or try looking at grocery stores, gas stations.

Camp hosts are always friendly and the campground being right along a stretch of oak creek is amazing. Not my first time there and won't be the last.

Stunning views at this campsite. However, sites are very small and there is 0 privacy. Bought wood from the lady and she gave our wood to the wrong people and did not believe us when we first told her. She was nice but the last time I stayed her the guy was much cooler. Overall a very cool site but I would not stay more than one night here.
