Dogtown Lake Campground and Group

All was good.

Love the lake, and the campground The spaces are big and far apart, Loop B is our favorite, the hosts have always been so friendly There is a great hike around the lake

We stayed here to visit the Grand Canyon. It’s a little over an hour from the campground to the park which is very manageable. The sites are very well designed and the pine tree forest it’s nestled in is gorgeous. When we visited in September 2020 there were a lot of wasps. They were pretty passive towards humans and didn’t sting or attack any of us, but they were very willing to go after our food.

We had a great weekend here! Easy to get to. Fishing was ok. Tried power bait the first day and not a bite. Went to town for nightcrawlers, next day. Caught 5 fish in about 45 min! Was fun. Cell service was kind of sketchy, but ok. Everyone was really friendly. Only complaint was the site we had. Said on the website that they were pull through sites? We did have a big trailer, 36'. Because of the one way road we had to park it with the doors and awning on the opposite side of the fire pit and picnic table. Not a huge deal, just not as cozy. Would definitely stay here again!

The drive in was a gravel road. Nothing intense unless you are perhaps in your Porsche or bike with training wheels.
When we got to camp Friday morning all FF spots that were available 2 days before were taken. Good thing we reserved spot 49 weeks prior just in case. We were concerned our 2 SUVS and enclosed trailer were going to be too much (they were) but we were able to park the trailer in the lot by the lake no problem. It actually worked out well because we kept our kayaks and fishing poles in there nice and close to the water. Not everyone could do that because there were only about 15 spots, but the hosts wanted to accommodate us.
The lake is about 2.5 miles around. Made for a nice little walk with the kids. We caught several fish the few days we were there. We watched cranes and bald eagles fish. The lake got pretty busy with fishermen spread out along the edge on Saturday.
The camp was clean, the hosts came by often and you could buy wood from them that they would deliver to your camp using a little cart. Make sure you have cash.
49 was directly across from the bathrooms. Not exactly ideal, but it’s all we could get. They were impeccable Friday. Odorless and spotless. By Sunday morning I debated just hiding behind a tree - it smelled so so bad and had ran out of toilet paper (make sure to bring some).

I liked how well spaced the sites were. We used the tent pad to put out another table and had plenty of space to pitch 2 tents without feeling like we were going into neighbors spaces at all. Some sites have longer crescent shaped driveways you could fit 5 cars in and others you can barely squeeze 2. (49 was a smaller “driveway”)
The train can be heard through the night. It never woke us from a dead sleep, but was loud and clear when you were awake.
The camp has nice huge trees everywhere providing plenty of shady areas throughout the day.
You are super close to Williams so forgetting anything isn’t something worth stressing.

We really enjoyed our stay at Dogtown Lake Campground. The restrooms were very clean and odorless. We were there for 4 nights the camp hosts were extremely pleasant and helpful. The sunrises and sunsets over the lake were amazing. The camp site we stayed at was nicely spaced away from the adjacent sites. There was drinking water close by but no electric hookup or RV dump station. We were able to make and recieve phone calls but struggled to get a good enough signal to watch football. We eventually did and were happy about it!

The park was super clean. Our space(s) were perfect walk to the lake. Bathrooms were always clean!! Smelled good too(not like a pottie). The hosts were amazing providing the outmost information for whatever we needed. Thank you extremely. We will definitely be returning.. Thank you.

Outstanding camp site! The staff are friendly and the facility is beautiful. Don’t stress if you forget anything, there is a Safeway not too far (5-6 miles) outside the main entrance.

Road to campground was TERRIBLE!! Camp hosts were ok, however facilities were not the best

Campground was beautiful!
