This was a great campsite. It was very spacious and nestled among the trees. The whole campground is clean and peaceful

The process for check in is quite different with the hosts standing out by the road with a table to check in people. You can't drive through the host area any longer. It was disappointing to not be able to purchase ice as well. One of the hosts, Lynn, was excellent, very nice woman. We were in loop E and we noticed that as people left, there were no camp hosts that came to the sites to clean them up for the next camper. We love the area and will be back but not the biggest fans of the new management company.

Even though the lake is low, fishing was great. Campground was quiet, even through the memorial day holiday. Camp hosts were vigilant throughout my stay… Kept things clean, quiet and enjoyable for everyone.

Booked 3 nights over the weekend first night was great but 2nd night a group shows up late and decided they want to play loud music. Which is fine durring the day but the camp site had signs posted everywhere about a 11pm cutoff for noise. The group decided they diddent want to follow that rule. You would think the hosts would possibly do somthing about it but nope. They are more concerned about toilet paper and over priced fire wood then enforcing the rules. So we decided to leave early. This is the second time we have been to Kaibab lake campground and the 2nd time there has be a negative experience. first time teenagers were fighting and racing up and down the campground and now this time people partying till 4am pointing their headlights at peoples tents while the hosts do nothing. We wont be coming back eventho the campground itself is great. Figured new managment would better but guess not.

Space 20 Loop B. Very well spaced, mix of shade and sunshine. Hosts were top notch and cordial. Grounds very well kept but this poor lake was down and brown. Easy 45 minute walk around it for a morning jaunt.

Our group of 6 families has been camping for years together. We have stayed everywhere from Mt Lemmon, to Payson, to Happy Jack, and more. This was our first time at Kaibab Lake and we were so disappointed. What was advertised clearly as a group site was absolutely not a group site. It was 6-7 individual sites near each other. There was minimal signage explaining this and the photos were misleading for KG2 site as they showed KG1 which did have all of the group amenities. KG2 does NOT have a ramada, group dining tables, or a fire pit any larger than a normal individual site. We literally had to call some of the families running behind to bring up tables and a canopy so that we had a place to set our stuff and some shade. All 6 families (30 people) crowded into ONE individual campground spot so that we could cook and be together (the whole reason we camp together) and not be spread out in completely separate spaces. When I asked that park ranger (a job I have deep respect for) why there were so few amenities and why it was even advertised as a group site, she said not very kindly, "that's why it's listed for $100 less per night than the other site." I don't recall how much the other site was listed for but this site was comparable to all of the other group sites that we have stayed at over the years price wise, sites that had amazing amenities.

We ultimately made the best of it and we had a good time. I would heavily suggest that 1) recreation.gov confirm their listing on this campsite to ensure it is very clearly marked what it offers and 2) if you do book this "site" make sure to bring up a bunch of folding tables and canopies for your group.

For individual camping the sites were amazing; bathrooms were extremely clean, the rangers attentive, the lake was walking distance away, and the quaint town of Williams was a short drive with lots of things to do (Bearizona, Alpine Slides, Deer Farm, Shopping etc.)
