Navajo Lake Campground offers a beautiful setting with stunning lake views, clean facilities, and friendly hosts, particularly Sue, who enhances the camping experience. Many campers enjoyed stargazing, kayaking, and the peaceful atmosphere, with some noting the campground's maintained cleanliness and safety. While the lake's water level was low and there were some issues with facility updates, overall, campers expressed a strong desire to return.

Our family has been longtime patrons of Navajo Lake Campground, having visited for many years. However, our recent visits, including the most recent one, have left us disappointed due to a decline in the quality of service and facilities.

This year, we encountered the worst hosts we have ever encountered at a campground. It was evident that they lacked the attentiveness and professionalism that we had come to appreciate in the past. Furthermore, the bathrooms were not properly cleaned during our stay, which was a significant concern for us. It was disheartening to see such neglect in maintaining a basic necessity for campers.
Upon our arrival, we approached one of the hosts to inquire about the possibility of changing our assigned site, as Site 27 seemed inadequate for our trailer. However, we were met with an unhelpful response. Without allowing us to fully explain our situation, the host quickly directed us to Site 12, stating that they did not want anyone camping next to them. This interaction left us feeling disregarded and unwelcome.

It is worth mentioning that during our previous visit, we were informed that the hosts were absent due to a personal problem. While we understood the circumstances, it was frustrating to not have hosts available to address any concerns or provide assistance when needed. However, we refrained from leaving a review at that time, hoping for a better experience in the future.

Despite our disappointment, we acknowledge that Navajo Lake Campground offers natural beauty and recreational activities that continue to attract visitors. However, improvements must be made in terms of host selection and training, as well as the maintenance and cleanliness of the facilities.
In conclusion, our recent visits to Navajo Lake Campground were marred by inadequate hosts, uncleaned bathrooms, and an unwelcoming attitude.

Thanks.

Stayed 7/21-7/22. The location of the campground was nice near the lake with close access to launch boats and swimming, as well as the lodge if you need to go to the store. The campgrounds themselves were very busy with what seemed like constant noise and you’re fairly close to your neighbors. Not sure that anything can be done but there were a ton of flies, including in the bathrooms (like 100s dead and alive). I do wish the rvs and tent sites were a bit more separated. One of the best sites had a large motorhome right on the edge of the lake so that was our main view looking out.

Nice but marred by loud music and all day generators from different directions. Loop trail is great!
