My only concern was the traffic noise given how its smack dab next to highway 89A.Besides that, I very much agree enjoyed my stay! The campground and toilets were pristine. Camp hosts Jerome and Anne (sorry if I get the name wrong) were very friendly, helpful and attentive. I look forward to re-visit soon.

One of the most gorgeous campsites. Went in November and there were fall leaves everywhere. Site 4 is one of the more private sites, behind it is a small walking trail with access to the creek. Very quiet, bathrooms were clean. I had heard the drinking water is a little funky but I didnt test it, but its easy to just filter the creek water. Not much service for T-Mobile. Will be back!

This would be a great campground if it were not directly off the road. Traffic did reduce to a minimum after 10pm but picked up again early in the morning. Trailhead is across and up the road a bit. The facilities were clean and well maintained.

The campsite is very neatly maintained. Check in was easy. Firewood available on site. Very Peaceful. Some road noise from the 89 highway but settled down at night and likely won't bother most people. Entrance to campsite of 89 could be better marked. Comes up on you very quickly. A bit of a challenge getting back onto the highway if traffic is busy. Beautifully rustic atmosphere with the sounds of the creek flowing by completing the experience. Very well located between Sedona and Flagstaff. Exellent base for exploring that area. Will definitely us it again i I travel in that area.

We arrived a day later than planned because we decided to spend an extra day in the Grand Canyon area after completing the Rim-to-River hike via Tonto Westa challenging 20-mile trek in a single day. During our stay, we enjoyed both breakfast and dinner at the site. On our free day, we hiked the beautiful West Fork trail and truly appreciated the campsite. The grounds were very clean and well-maintained, and firewood was conveniently available for purchase.

Stayed in site 10. Had a spectacular time. Went with a couple buddies for the weekend to unwind and it did not disappoint. The bathrooms were very clean and the view beautiful. I will go again.

First time here and it was a great vibe from the start. Being a tent only, its so nice to not have generators running at all. Super chill vibe spot and bathrooms were clean too.
@JoelZ9F72B03AF · Camped on Nov 4, 2025 at Campsite #16
Nice, clean, sites are good near the creek. Some road noise but overall a good experience

Lovely campsite
@ClarkP6537704 · Camped on Oct 27, 2025 at Campsite #14
As others have said, these sites are VERY close to one another. Site 14 was not bad but site 10 is terribly small. Would not recommend this campsite.
@JasonF6346958 · Camped on Oct 27, 2025 at Campsite #15
Yes, traffic is nearby. Yes, when there is no traffic the white noise of the creek takes over this place. Unfortunately, it is pay site; for one of the most beautiful spots in Oak Creek; steps from your camp. Yes, it is packed in. Yes, when you wake up in the morning (if youre staying more than one day) you will wake up to an empty campground during the week. Most of the time campers dont run in till after six to 7 oclock. A campers wet dream if you like supporting double taxation; extra money for reserved camping, but a clean quad of pit toilets and swimming holes. Reluctant as I may be to say; since I have seen some things, this place is worth your dollar. Enjoy the trip.

It was the perfect spot right out of Sedona. Close to all hikes. Cathedral rock is a must at sunset.

Very nice campground. Some noise from the road, but no generators or loud music at night. The host was very freindly and had suggestions for swimming and hiking in the area. We plan on staying here again
@MiguelR9F71ADA · Camped on Oct 8, 2025 at Campsite #17
Beautiful, clean and convenient campground. Creek and swimming/fishing holes. Every time we go, my only complaints are the proximity to the highway (I dont love hearing traffic while Im putting my kids to sleep) and the small size of most of the campsites. That being said, we love it here and will continue to visit!
@SpencerT383963 · Camped on Oct 1, 2025 at Campsite #13
Camp host was friendly, camp site was very clean, love that place :)
@Hezequias9556B · Camped on Sep 26, 2025 at Campsite #14
Great camping site, even with the heavy rain it all looked great. Avoid spot 13 thru 17 if you have sensitive nose as bathroom smells can be overwhelming some times.
@MikeP3321518 · Camped on Sep 24, 2025 at Campsite #17
Very nice and had plenty of space to set up. I only wish they had more of a hiking trail.
@MichaelF459455 · Camped on Sep 23, 2025 at Campsite #19
Beautiful scenic campground in the canyon north of Sedona. Tents only, so prepare accordingly. Great swimming spots nearby for those hot Arizona summers. Campground host was friendly and maintained a tidy camp. Pretty small so reservations are essential. No bathrooms, showers or sinks, just pit toilets. Calm and quiet. Very relaxing under the beautiful canopy of trees.
@CharlesC950415 · Camped on Sep 21, 2025 at Campsite #5
Camp site 5 is the best site,IMO its more private and you can actually see whats going on around you and it is close to the water points and bathrooms ,the higher site is not that bad ..
@KarlaT120D6687 · Camped on Sep 19, 2025 at Campsite #17
This campsite is beautiful! The bathrooms were clean and the hosts very friendly.
@AnnaL9239988 · Camped on Sep 14, 2025 at Campsite #16
Clean bathrooms, great customer service from the host, enjoyed the creek within walking distance.
@MatthewK865533 · Camped on Sep 9, 2025 at Campsite #12
It was a nice place to base trips from, the entrance and exit can be a bit sporty going in and out as it is parallel to 89-A.
@KimberlyF17054 · Camped on Sep 8, 2025 at Campsite #15
Host was very friendly. Bathrooms clean. Not all sites we full so very quiet.
@HalS7720030 · Camped on Sep 4, 2025 at Campsite #5

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!!!
