Campground is very convenient to everything. Problem is the road noise wich I know can't be helped. However, we camp with a 5th wheel and depend on the advertised dump station being open. If it isn't please publish the information somewhere so we can make other arrangements.

Good campsite overall! Bathrooms were decent but sometimes out of toilet paper. Not a lot of shade at the campsites. The road noise was very loud, especially in the early morning.

Beautiful campground right outside Payson. Stores and restaurants close by. Traffic noise is quite noticeable but not a big issue for us.

Our host was very friendly and the facilities were all clean and tidy. A great campground thats close enough to Payson for forgetful campers.

Great experience for me and my wife. First time at Houston Mesa and enjoyed the 4 days we spent there. We usually have gone north of strawberry for some boon camping. We have plans to return to Houston Mesa in the near future.

Area was beautiful!! Restrooms couldnt of been cleaner. They didnt have soap, but hand sanitizer outside. The hostess was very polite. We had some wild Havelina visit the campsite, but scattered once they heard us. The only thing that bothered me was the road noise. Very loud and started early. With that said, Id stay there again.

So we have camped here several times throughout the years. It's right outside of town so you get cell service and can go into town for your shopping. I personally like to setup camp then go grocery shopping so I don't have to make room in my vehicle for food on the drive up. It's easy to find and right off the highway. It has flush toilets, sinks and $2 (I think that's the amount) quarter operated showers. They have drinking water there to refill water jugs, and dumpsters for your trash. There are some hiking trails in the campground, that are nice to explore. Each campsite is covered in pine trees for privacy from other campsites, and they include a picnic table and fire ring with a grill. It's a quick drive to anywhere you want to visit in or near Payson like Tonto Creek and the Fish Hatchery. Only con is that you can hear traffic so it's not secluded enough. Wildlife comes into the campground still. Once a camp host and I saw a huge elk doe with her fawn just walking around the campground, it was beautiful.
