We loved our experience at this group campground. Plenty of room for tents and a nice large cooking eating area with 12 tables and 3 BBQ grills. We will likely come back again!

Great camp spot. Easy to get to but you feel away from it all. Camp hosts were super friendly. We had everything we needed.

There is one 30 amp plug and two 110 amp plugs there. Two bathrooms, men and women's. Also a pond down the road. You can bring your ATV as long as they have OHV tags .

It was very nice to have such a private site. No generators to listen to. Lots of wildlife in the meadow across from us every evening. We heard wild turkeys in the morning. Saw elk and deer at night. The bathrooms were clean and well maintained. We brought our own water and do we’re good. It was a very pleasant experience.

This is a perfect campground for us. It is close for traveling to and easy to find and access. I really enjoy having the pit toilets available, and a camp host right down the road. I've always preferred to boondocks and get away from everyone while camping, but the huge increase in outdoor adventure seekers over the last few years has made that difficult. Reserving this group site gives me the camping privacy I crave and allows me to invite friends and family to join me. I have reserved for the past 2 years and intend to continue using this site for years to come.

The 2 hosts who were there when we arrived were very friendly.

I couldn't say that it was perfect or pretty soon everybody would be reserving my favorite spot and I'd have to go somewhere else, but it is a pretty awesome spot. Elevation is good so that it is reasonably cool, even in the Arizona summer. It is farther from Phoenix than is good for families with little kids. But the facilities are excellent and there is plenty of room to have a large group of campers. IT is good to have the tables and charcoal grills but if I want to bring propane grills it is more difficult to find enough room around the built in units to not crowd yourself around the tables. Even with that, it is still a great place to camp.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
