Recreation.gov should also CLEARLY state that you have to pay to dump your trash, which is not typical of most campsites in Arizona. There is also RV dump station a few miles east near Woods Canyon, but it costs $7 to dump. This really isn't a huge deal, and there were attendants to make the process go smoothly with two separate pull-through sites to dump, but most people would agree that
The nearest forest road had traffic on it literally 18 hours a day, and we had one or two dozen vehicles per hour on Friday and Saturday driving through our loop of the campground looking for spots to camp. The camp host did not put out signs that say "campground full" which is common practice for national forest campgrounds, and this could have at least cut the traffic in the campground a little bit. The traffic on Rim Road is fast, anywhere from 10-20 mph above the posted limit of 25 MPH. Don't expect a quiet campground until after about 9PM.
Overall, this campground is a GREAT location with a paved rim trail that starts right in the campground with amazing views, and close proximity to both Woods Canyon and Willow Springs Lakes really is great, but this is probably why there are THOUSANDS of people camping, boating, hiking, ATV riding, etc. along this corridor between Payson and Heber. Not a horrible campground, but you just need to know what you are getting when you make a reservation in this campground or any in the immediate area.
