Nice campground but the requirement to use the dumpsters at the entrance over the trash receptacles placed around the campground is a bit frustrating. The pit toilets are clean and well maintained. The lake was low and a bit murky because of the recent rain but overall, a nice place to camp.

Nice large camp sites, lots of pull throughs. Clean camps and bathrooms. Bearizona is very close in Williams. You can hear the trains regularly. Only problem is the camp 2 sites down. They let their dogs run free for 2 days and yelled at them all day and night when they would run into the forest and through other camp sites, including ours. Would have been a great trip otherwise. Yelling was not the camp sounds I went for.

We had a amazing time camping at Dogtown. The staff was very friendly, everything was clean, and the lake was a nice feature. My only complaint was the train horns all throughout the night, which obviously the campground can't change.
