Beautiful spot. We were surprised to see the tree thinning in the campground. Still a great place. Much cooler than in the Valley of the sun.

This is our favorite campground to visit during the Arizona summers. Being located in the White Mountains, it is a great getaway from the heat of the Arizona desert. The campground is always clean and well maintained, and the camp hosts are friendly, engaging, knowledgeable and caring. We look forward to seeing them from year to year. We have taken several family members and friends to this location and they all share our opinions.

The park itself is very clean, well-maintained, and the staff has always been polite and professional. Ive been here many times with friends, with family, with only my kids and wife, and even with the boys to go fishing. Most guests respect the park rules, which makes it an enjoyable place to stay.

Very nice campground. I have stayed here multiple times and always have the same experience. The camp host are always very nice and available. The area has plenty of things to do and see within an hours drive. Campgrounds are well maintained and clean. I will be back!

The campground was clean and well managed. Camp hosts were very friendly and quick with information. They were also frequently out and about checking on the grounds. We did not have water, electric or sewer connections so we used the on-site shower facilities. They were fairly clean with hot water and good pressure. Our only concern was the slope of the floor and the splash from the shower allowed water to run out into the other are of the room. They did have a floor squeegee available to help push the water back toward the drain. As always, bring your flip-flops and you may also want to bring a grate to stand on. We had a very good experience, thank you.

Although the weather wasnt the best, the campground is beautiful. The restoom/showers were very clean, and the camphosts were terrific.

This was a great place to get away. The staff was great. Pat and Darcie were exceptional!We will be back as often as we can.
@EthanJ5D120536 · Camped on Aug 15, 2025 at Campsite #5
While I loved the area surrounding the campground the actual campground itself was not as enjoyable. The campsites were fairly close to one another with little privacy, the bathrooms/showers were not as clean as I would have liked, and we had a number of noisy neighbors next door while we were there. I will definitely be back to this area but I don't know that I would come back to this specific campground.
@MarkH6047851 · Camped on Aug 14, 2025 at Campsite #55

This campground is absolutely beautiful and is well taken care of by fantastic campground hosts!
@DanC4119480 · Camped on Aug 6, 2025 at Campsite #39
This place is great. Much to do on the lake, and the camp store has everything one could possibly want. Will return again this year before they close for the season.
@MaryannK1CA4A1 · Camped on Aug 1, 2025 at Campsite #30
The camp hosts helped us find a spot on a Friday evening as our plans had changed suddenly. They went around and told us where we could park so we didn't drive around with the RV and tow vehicle. They checked on us throughout our visit to make sure everything was going well. They went above and beyond.
@JasonDE6DED4C6 · Camped on Jul 31, 2025 at Campsite #PG
Great site if you have a lot of people.
@StephenT431742 · Camped on Jul 14, 2025 at Campsite #76
This is a very nice campground. Wish it had cell phone and internet service. Not needed for streaming or emails. More and more people depend on this for emergencies with family or alarm companies.
@richarda847269 · Camped on Jul 13, 2025 at Campsite #86
Campground and restrooms are always clean. They have cut down a lot of trees since we were there last year. That was a surprise but still perfect.
@JesikaL59CB64D · Camped on Jul 11, 2025 at Campsite #6
Wonderful campground! This is one of our favorite places to cool off during the Arizona summer. Tucked in the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest near Big Lake, it's peaceful, scenic, and full of tall pines and aspens. There are a lot of downed trees, but we were happy to see new ones being planted.The campground is clean and well maintained. Restrooms were tidy, and the showers were adequatenothing fancy, but they got the job done. Campsites are spacious with plenty of room for trailers or RVs. Picnic tables, fire rings, and hookups were all in good shape.The camp hosts were fabulous. Friendly, helpful, and clearly proud of the campground. Their presence made the experience feel even more inviting.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

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!!!
