This is a fantastic place with unique geology - well worth the trip out. I recommend both the Echo Canyon loop and the out-and-back to Heart of Rocks. We did the shorter Echo loop on the afternoon we arrived (2hrs) and the Heart of Rocks the next morning (4hrs). You can link both together but if you have time, splitting them up will leave you with more time and energy to explore the rocks and grottos. The campground itself is comfortable and well shaded but nothing special. Come for the hiking!

Pleasant campground in a beautiful park. This is the 2nd time I've camped here, and both times have been very enjoyable. While the sites have few amenities, they were generously spaced for each site to have relative privacy. The restrooms were clean & warm. I took advantage of the access to the nearby Bonita Creek Trail to enjoy an easy late afternoon hike down to the Faraway Ranch area and back.

Camp number 15 was more secluded which was very nice.
However I wish the fire grill was a bit bigger. Not worth making a fire in it unless you are using coals to cook over. The bathrooms were clean so that was plus! Bonita campground is the best if you want some easy camping to get to the amazing trails up top.

The campground was quiet, clean, and well maintained. There are heated restrooms with flush toilets, numerous potable water taps, and a couple of gray water dump stations. The campground hosts do a great job of maintaining the place, and were especially helpful in sorting out a mixup regarding my site reservation. The park is amazing and I would definitely recommend this campground to anyone planning to visit southeastern Arizona.

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
