Beautiful campground with friendly hosts. It was so quiet at night, even on memorial day weekend. The creek was a bit low, but we had fun catching crayfish and exploring the campground. Our site was big and right on the creek which was very nice, but not very flat so it was a bit of a hard time figuring out where to put the tents. Still recommend and would definitely try to get the same site when we return!

Great campsite next to creek. Has bear box to store cooler and trash, but tight parking along side of road.

Buy firewood in Payson before showing up.

Beautiful! The campsite itself was slightly downhill. Wonderful for privacy, but would’ve been nice to expect it ahead of time. Probably the best spot in the camp!

My family loves this area. The campground is always clean and my granddaughters love catching craw dad’s in the creek. This year was especially cool and nice and being able to have a campfire was a bonus.

We had an awesome spot, the campground was very clean, and Roger was helpful and kind! Thanks for a great stay!

I have been coming here since 1980 and this last trip was the first in a very long time. My only complaint is the creek is covered now and our favorite thing to do as kids was to persuade drivers to go fast and splash us! I was absolutely floored about how clean the campground and especially the toilets are, like WOW! Just an amazing overall experience and all the hosts were wonderful.

Best site ever :) Creek went through the campsite. Lots of trees and very private.

This camp was a wonderful find! Beautiful spot by the creek. Camp hosts were awesome. Beautiful setting in the forest. An easy drive into Payson which was a marvelous and welcoming town to visit. The steak house/bar just down the road awesome as well for a great dinner. I will definately choose this camp again if in the area!
