Beautiful, clean, and well kept park. This is our go to camp at least twice every summer. All camp hosts are friendly and accommodating. A special shout out to camp hosts Mark and Lisa. Can’t wait for next year

Love the full hook ups. All the camp hosts are super nice and helpful. The roads need to be grated though huge holes hard driving through with our motor home. You should make more places with full hook up. Love the camp ground always clean no issues with rowdy people.

Love this park. FHU, water/electric, group sites available but USFS Apache-Sitegreaves offers everything for tent campers to Class A motorhomes. Big lake is short distance away and can be walked to for fishing or easy drive for boaters to take advantage of a truly beautiful lake. Campstore has much more than one would expect. Nearest city is Alpine to the east with Eagar north a ways. Both are neat to visit. Obey speed limits getting to and around this USFS campground area which incorporates 4 different spots with various sites.

We arrived to check in and were so surprised to see same camp hosts (Mark and Lisa) as last year. Mark helped back us into our spot last year since hubs was trying for the first time. Mark made it so simple. What a great guy. And Lisa is just a gem. She recognized us from last year and welcomed us back. They are probably THE best hosts we've had here and we camp here just about every year. HOPE TO SEE THEM AGAIN NEXT YEAR!!

The hosts were so nice and the sites were perfect. The only thing that didn’t cooperate was Mother Nature, but I can’t blame the grounds for that. We will be back next year!

Quiet campground. Neighbors and camp hosts were all friendly. The weather was perfect as well! One small storm and temps were in 70s-80s during day and 50s at night.

Reception was very pleasant (by Tony Rulon) and the hosts were nice and helpful. The site was clean and so were the bathrooms.
