Very picturesque and worth the drive up the unpaved road. Fishing was quite good as well.

Nice location at end of the canyon, clean. A mix of tent only and RV sites. The noise from the RV generators this trip was really annoying. Also, a very large group with about ten vehicles gathered at one the sites with about 14 people fishing in the same popular area. Ruined the usual solitude in the evenings and made a busy day area busier. There is supposed to be a max of two vehicles per site. I left early to get away from the mass of humanity. Other trips to this campsite where not like this one turned out to be.

Nothing to do with the campground but I mistakenly booked the Colorado location instead of Arizona location. I tried to call the campground to cancel the reservation once I had arrived and realized my mistake. Did not get an answer or a reply to my voicemail. I had reserved for 2 nights and wound've liked at least part of my money back.
