We arrived a day later than planned because we decided to spend an extra day in the Grand Canyon area after completing the Rim-to-River hike via Tonto West—a challenging 20-mile trek in a single day. During our stay, we enjoyed both breakfast and dinner at the site. On our free day, we hiked the beautiful West Fork trail and truly appreciated the campsite. The grounds were very clean and well-maintained, and firewood was conveniently available for purchase.

First time here and it was a great vibe from the start. Being a tent only, it’s so nice to not have generators running at all. Super chill vibe spot and bathrooms were clean too.

This would be a great campground if it were not directly off the road. Traffic did reduce to a minimum after 10pm but picked up again early in the morning. Trailhead is across and up the road a bit. The facilities were clean and well maintained.

Yes, traffic is nearby. Yes, when there is no traffic the white noise of the creek takes over this place. Unfortunately, it is pay site; for one of the most beautiful spots in Oak Creek; steps from your camp. Yes, it is packed in. Yes, when you wake up in the morning (if you’re staying more than one day) you will wake up to an empty campground during the week. Most of the time campers don’t run in till after six to 7 o’clock. A campers wet dream if you like supporting double taxation; extra money for reserved camping, but a clean quad of pit toilets and swimming holes. Reluctant as I may be to say; since I have seen some things……, this place is worth your dollar. Enjoy the trip.
