Beautiful location just outside Cottonwood and centrally located for touring and attractions. Good hiking and mountain biking trails within the park. Easy to get to. Sites are fairly close but manageable. Nice clean restrooms. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

A great value! Very clean with spread out sites. We stayed on one of the upper loops which had great views of Cottonwood. The lower loop is wooded and would probably be a better choice in the summer. Great mountain biking and hiking. If you ride the Raptor/Thumper/Lime Kiln Loop it is better to ride it clockwise. The fishing was lousy, but that is probably just my luck and not a reflection on the park. The host went out of their way for us. Very family friendly. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

One of the best state parks we've stayed in. The upper loops offer fantastic views of Cottonwood, Jerome and the mountains beyond. Sites are very large and well-spaced. Many trails to explore and nearby, as well as the winding Verde River. Cottonwood and Jerome are nearby gems, not to mention the red rocks of Sedona. Staff was always available and eager to assist. Would give this a 10 if there were sewer hookups. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is one of our favorite Arizona state parks. It is close to town but still far enough way to feel like real camping. We really love all the great trails for hiking through out the property. We were in site 82 in the Red Tail Hawk loop. It had a huge shade tree and great city views at night. Remember to watch closely for snakes as this is still the desert. We had a rattlesnake on our site under our picnic table. The ranger quickly removed the unwelcome friend. This is our second stay in the last 5 years and we would visit again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a very nice state park, very close to Cottonwood, AZ. Loops and sites are paved. There are electric and water hookups. There is a dump station near the park entrance. We stayed in site 17 in the Quail loop. This is the lower loop where you have more mature trees around your site. The upper loops (Red-Tail Hawk and Cooper’s Hawk) are on a hill where you get good views of the nearby towns, including Cottonwood and Jerome. The park has plenty of trails, access to the Verde River, and lagoons. They now have an equestrian concessionaire, where you can go for a wrangler-guided trail ride. We made reservations, which is something new they’re doing. We arrived after the ranger station closed. We drove right to our site. It wasn’t until the last evening when someone came by to verify our confirmation papers. There were no issues with this. We stayed here two years earlier, and we plan on going back in the future. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We camp hosted here in October in the lower treed campground and wanted to return and camp in one of the hill side loops because of the dynamite views of the valley. The views were wonderful, but the wind was relentless for the 6 days we were there. Still a great park and we look to return in the future. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Location, location location. This park has 3 campgrounds, the lower is more crowded. The Redtail loop and other one has much better views. We did not have good weather but were able to see Flagstaff, Sedona, Jerome and Prescott prior to the snow fall. As kayakers, the lagoons are too small and the river top rocky. Would possibly use this park again for its location. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Arizona state parks have just begun accepting reservations. Staff were having problems with the computer system which slowed down the check in process, but they will get used to it in time. Some computer glitches weren't the fault of the staff. Soon, Rv'ers will be able to go on line and reserve their own sites. Park is nice, with nice views, big sites with plenty of room between spaces. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice quiet park with pretty views of mountains. Also has nice fishing lagoons and river access. Town of Cottonwood is great-- lots of shopping and dining options, but much more laid back than Sedona. Great off-leash dog park nearby. Sites are Elec/Water only, but RV Dump station is available. Good over-the-air TV service and excellent cell. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great location and value. One of the best parks I've visited throughout Arizona. This state park now accepts reservations online. Park includes fishing, many hiking trails, great customer service, clean environment and many local attractions. Blazing M Ranch (western dinner show) is within walking distance; Jerome's mining town is nearby, along with Wild Animal Park (safari ride - feed the animals) and Camp Verde's train ride. This State Park is also located close to Prescott and Sedona. See website for more local attractions and details. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a great campground. It's well-maintained, the sites are large and reasonably level, the views are wonderful, and it has lots of things to do. The only downside (and it's not the park's fault) is that on weekends it fills up quickly (no reservations, it's strictly first-come-first-served) and can have lots of tent-camping families with kids, dogs, and campfires. If that's what you want and expect, it's great; if you're older and prefer a quieter spot, maybe this isn't for you. There are several RV loops, the lower (Quail) loop has more trees, but the upper loops have great views and probably fill up more slowly. Although there is one loop that's for tent-camping only, all sites are available for tents. We'd definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very nice campground, well-maintained and very quiet. There might be a few shaded spots but most are not shaded. It is one of only 9 Arizona State parks that are currently planned to stay open after state budgetary cutbacks. Excellent Verizon air card reception. A number of trails (hiking, biking and horseback) are accessible directly from the State Park leading into Coconino National Forest. Guided horse back rides are available. Easy short drives to Jerome and Sedona make this a good spot to stay while exploring the area. We'll be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Fantastic views of Tuzigoot, Jerome, Cottonwood and the surrounding areas. There are three areas for motorhomes and we chose the highest for the views and warmth from the sun. This is a great location for seeing the sites of the Verde Valley and beyond. The staff was welcoming and everything was clean and neat. The sites were well spaced. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is one of the nicest campgrounds I have been in. You can opt out of the electric; otherwise add $7 a day to the fee. If you pay for camping, you are not charged the day use fee - just the camping fee. The only problem was that the showers were very cold. Apparently some pricey device needed to regulate the temperature was broken and the park budget has no funds to replace it. The ranger suggested I use one of the other bathrooms. I stayed in the Cooper's Hawk loop. Showers in the nearby Red-Tail Hawk loop were just fine. Everything is paved. Pull thrus were long. Sites are well spaced and reasonably level. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We enjoyed our stay at this state park. The sites were large, easy to park in. Great views, easy access to many attractions--Sedona, Jerome, Verde Canyon Railroad. Quiet. Good Verizon broadband coverage. Our only complaint concerned the restrooms. The first couple of days they weren't very clean. Also, one day the showers were cold. Some shower heads barely sprayed any water. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We heard great things about this state park and we were not disappointed. Excellent location for day trips to Sedona, Jerome, Tuzigoot National Monument and Montezuma NM and well. For those traveling with dogs there is a leash free dog park just outside of Dead Horse adjacent to the baseball diamonds. The town of Cottonwood has all the amenities one would need. It's a short 15 miles from I-17 at Camp Verde: give it a try. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is certainly one of the finest state parks we have ever stayed at. We had no trouble getting our 38' motorhome into our back-in space. There is a 40' rig parked right next to us. 45' rigs could be tight though. The 50 AMP electricity is spot on and water pressure is good. The water does taste pretty bad even after being filtered twice. What a view we have here! We are close to all of the stores in Cottonwood and to Sedona, Jerome and the beautiful Oak Creek Canyon. There is fishing, hiking, geocaching, horse back riding and many other activities in the area. We definitely will stay here again and again!! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is one of the nicest state parks we've visited, hands down. It is very well maintained, with a nice layout. We stayed in the Quail loop, site 8, with a great view of the Tuzigoot Ruins, Mingus Mtn, and Jerome. There are many hiking trails in the park, as well as fishing and horseback riding. The park is conveniently located near many local attractions, as well as Sedona and Oak Creek Canyon. If you stay here, be sure to stop at the Main Street Bistro at 202 Main Street, about a quarter mile to the left as you exit the park. We had a wonderful Pork Medallian and Shrimp Scampi dinner there. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Deadhorse is a convenient park for exploringthis interesting area of Arizona. As with other AZ State parks, however, there are no reservations and campsites are on a first come and first served basis. Because of its popularity, this means a visit to Deadhorse can be an exercise in frustration so it's wise to call the Ranger station ahead and get a feel for availability of spaces. During our visit the campground was occupied by many motorcycle "chopper" folks in town for a big rally, and true to form they drove through the campgrounds late at night (and all through the night) reving engines and generally making a lot of noise - no sign of any park personnel to keep order. But this is the exception and most visitors will enjoy the cleanliness ans spaciousness of the facilities, the bird life and hiking trails and the access to many visitor destinations nearby. But avoid the biker rallies if you happen to enjoy sleep. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We live in Tempe, Arizona, and often travel to Cottonwood for overnights and antiquing. Even before we had our RV, we loved visiting Dead Horse Ranch State Park and vowed that should we be fortunate to one day own an RV, we would camp here first. Well, we kept our promise and two days after buying our RV, off we went to Cottonwood and we weren't disappointed. The park is in the high desert near Sedona and our spot afforded us an incredible night time view of the lights of Cottonwood in front of us, and off to our right, a grand view of Jerome. Our site was a paved and very level pull-through with ample space between us and our lone neighbor to our right. There are numerous hiking trails, including an easy walk to a bluff that overlooks the Tuzigoot Indian ruins off in the distance. It's also an easy walk or bike ride down to the two small, but lovely, fishing lakes. There are also camping sites near these small lakes along the Verde River that runs through the park, but they are almost always full and not nearly as nice as the upper camp grounds where we stayed. Although we didn't use them, the showers and bathrooms were close and very clean. All-in-all, a fabulous first RV camping trip. We will definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Terrific state park mainly because of the way it is run. A large number of volunteer/hosts keep it operating smoothly. The upper loop has some views but has no trees and could be subject to wind. The lower loop has more developed trees but the sites are a little closer together. The outside row of the lower loop has nice sites such as 19, 20, 21, 22 and 23. Good hiking and fishing is in walking distance. Beautiful Sedona is only about 20 minutes away. We are here now and will stay a total of 7 nights. Arizona State Parks has another gem.

This is a nice campground close to the town of Cottonwood. The sites were a little better than average in size in Quail loop and average in the other electric loops. They have two stocked lagoons, which were nice. The very best feature of the campground is the series of hiking/bicycle and horse trails that are accessible directly from the campsites. There are trails running along the Verde river, which are very scenic. There are no sewer hookups, but there is a dump station. There is no cable or Wi-Fi, which for a site so close to town seems like an upgrade that would be reasonable for them to pursue. The camp hosts were reasonably active and friendly. The main complaint we had was that they allow tents and car camping to occur within the electric/water campsites - so trailers and motorhomes are in sites alongside tents, which is awkward and creates a noisier and more rowdy atmosphere. It doesn't make sense that they allow this because they charge $12 per night if you don't need electric, but allow you to occupy an electric site that another camper with a trailer or motorhome might need. They have a camping loop for tents only and another loop with no electric, which is where they should confine the tent/car campers. Another small issue is that they make you go pick out your sight and drive back to the office to pay and record your site number, rather than pay at the office and have the camp hosts record the numbers or collect payment and assign the sites from the office. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A beautiful desert campsite with lots of foliage that feels like it's in the middle of nowhere (there's a small town with a Walmart etc. a couple of miles away). On arrival, the camp warden gave us a map and told us to drive around and select our own site. We chose a concreted site on high ground with a grand view of a mountain range 5 miles to the west. There's lots of room between adjacent campsites which are randomly scattered around rather than arranged in serried ranks like most RV parks. The day temperatures were close to 80F but the nights were chilly. Firewood was on sale by the showers/toilets (which were excellent) on the honor system at $5 a pop, so in the evenings we loaded the campsite's brazier, lit a fire, wrapped up and drank beer (me) and wine(wife) and listened to classical music. This was about 6 weeks into a 9-week trip. We had visited small towns and played hard at being tourists. It was lovely to do nothing for a few days and this was an excellent place in which to do nothing. We'd definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice park, but do not stay here if you have a pet. You are not allowed to leave your pet in your RV at anytime. This means you will not be able to do any site seeing, go to the store, or even go take a shower unless you take your pet with you. Of course pets are not allowed in the shower room so you will be in violation of the rules if you take a shower. Another problem I found is I have a 37' fifth wheel, the RV fit in the spot, the truck did not. I had to park away from my site as no parking is allowed off of the paved site.

Excellent state park. We had a large site in the upper loop. Although there are fewer trees there, the afternoon/evening breeze is better than down below. And the view is outstanding: especially the night lights of Jerome across the wide valley. They have some good walking trails here, especially the equestrian one which offers more shade. The restrooms were spotless, as was the campground in general. The drive to Sedona is easy; and, quite frankly, Dead Horse offers more sanity and peace/quiet than what you'll find in the traffic jams there. We will stay here again. Don't miss the mining town of Jerome, which (in its entirety) is on the National Historic Register. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This was our first experience at Dead Horse State Park, but we'll be back! The arid, desert campsites are spacious and clean, and the AZ views can't be beat! At night we were serenaded by coyotes and could view the mountainside lights of Jerome in the distance. Sunrise lit the mountains beautifully, and there are nicely marked walking trails. Next time we'll bring our mountain bikes. Bathrooms were spotless (although bring your own soap)! Staff and campers are friendly. Dead Horse is a good location for visiting Page Springs wineries.

This was a fantastic place to camp. The ranger and camp host were informative and friendly. The park has three fishing "lakes" with lots of shore space. The lower loops of campsites do have shade trees and are close to the river. However, we stayed in the new, upper loops. There were no trees large enough to provide shade but it was still great. This park is close to many National Monuments and other state parks of interest. Also, you are just a few miles away from Jerome. A cool town on the side of the hill. By the way, if you camp in the upper loop, you will be able to look down at the lights of Cottonwood and up at the lights of Jerome at night. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a marvelous state park. We stayed over the Christmas and New Year holidays for 10 nights. We stayed in one of the northside campground, in spot # 84. There were not very many sites occupied. Every site is spacious and could accommodate a big rig. You would not feel crowded even if every site was occupied. The other campground, which had more trees, has some sites that would not be able to handle a big rig. There were great trails right out our door, and very nice views. Bring your bikes! We liked the feeling of being out in the boonies yet you could walk or bike (about 1 mile) to town for many amenities. The views are wonderful as well as other areas in the park. It is a great birding area with the Verde River flowing through the park. The hosts were very friendly. This is a perfect, quiet location to see many AZ sites. I would not like to stay in Sedona as it was very crowded with tourists. There are 2-3 terrific and clean grocery stores in Cottonwood as well as some great restaurants. The showers and bathrooms were very clean. We don't usually use the campground showers but because we were there for a longer period of time and there was no sewer connection, we used the showers. The dump station was very clean and user-friendly. The staff at the visitor were very friendly and helpful, too. This has become one of our favorite spots. One thing we did wish for is that AZ State Parks had a reservation service. Most state park campground are on a first-come, first-serve basis. That makes it kind of precarious if you travel long distances and you hope that there is a site available esp. during the busier camping seasons. I highly recommend this state park anytime!

This was a great choice to explore the area - trails around this park. Sedona. Jerome. Park is easy to get in and out. (Do watch for some of the trees in the south campground as you pull around and be careful which pull through you choose) Sites Level. Friendly rangers. Fire rings. Sky full of stars. Would be a 10 if it had sewer, but that is just showing my laziness to unhook and go to the dump station during the visit. Will definitely be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is a gem - large, spacious sites (in some of the loops) and an easy trail to one of the best birding places in Arizona. We stay here for a few days at a time only, since there are no sewer hookups. Some of the upper sites have big, sweeping views of the Verde Valley. Unfortunately for my health, the awesome Hog Wild restaurant, where you can get an awesome freshly smoked pork loin dinner the size of Rhode Island for $9, is located near the turnoff to the park.

I am so glad I decided to stay at Dead Horse Ranch. Main reason for my visit was to see Jerome, this park has an excellent location. What I really loved was waking up in the morning and taking one of the many hiking trails that surround the campsites. The sites themselves are spacious. Everyone I met who worked in the park was very friendly and informative. I look forward to my next visit here. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We enjoy Dead Horse Ranch a lot and stay here when we visit Sedona. It is quiet and we love the roadrunners and other animals wandering around. Dog-friendly and quiet for an excellent night's sleep. If I had 1 complaint it is that the only trash bin is at the entrance to the Quail camp area where we stayed. On the other hand, it is a great walk with the dog to dump the garbage, or drop it off on your way out. Will stay again next time we visit Sedona. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A terrific park with access to small lakes for fishing. The surrounding scenery is spectacular, especially at night when you can see the town of Jerome lit up in the hills. Will definitely plan to stay at this park again when in that part of Arizona, especially since Tuzigoot National Monument and the town of Cottonwood are nearby. Just a short drive to Jerome and Sedona. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a great place to visit. We came for 1 night and stayed for 4 nights. The park has been recently upgraded. New restrooms and showers, 82 new sites, and all sites have been upgraded to 50amp electric. The park has 3 stocked fishing lagoons and a river that runs through. The area along the river, the Verde River Greenway, is great for birding. There are many places to visit near the park that make great day tips. If you are in the area it's a well worth a visit. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The campground was "high and dry" with great hiking trails. The view of Jerome was fabulous. HOWEVER, the camp hosts were unbending about visitors. They charged $5 every time my parents drove into the park to pick my husband and I up or dropped us off back at our campsite. We did not have a toad yet, so relied on them for transportation. When we told them that they were just dropping us off, the host actually followed us to our site and said that if my father got out of the car, he would be charged $5. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice park with desert landscape. Pull though space, no grass. Some sparse bushes/trees for privacy. 2 ponds on campground with Verde River bordering campground. Fish cleaning station at the fishing area. If bringing a golf cart, it MUST be street-legal and registered with license plates. Despite a phone call and questioning this specifically (I was told as long as it was not loud, it would be okay) the staff threatened tickets and made us unhook the coach each time we went fishing. Walking distance was not reasonable for my late-mother (lung ca). Bathrooms were clean, showers were clean but cold. Had a good time despite the golf cart troubles. Only managed one rainbow on the fly (bait fishermen fared much better). Probably will not return. Note: do not let your brother have you take a "shortcut" through Jerome,AZ in a 36ft coach + 12ft. trailer. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Hosts were very informative. There are 2 new loops up away from the river. The sites are spaced apart so as to provide some room. Restrooms are very nice but there was no walkway constructed yet to ours - could be a problem for mobility impaired. We had a wonderful view of the lights of Jerome at night.

This place gets the high 5 vote from my grandkids! They had a blast hiking all the trails and going frog hunting! We enjoyed the seclusion & large spaces. Very friendly and helpful Rangers. The facilities were clean & nearby our space making it very convenient to clean everybody up after a long hike! Other than being about 20 miles from Sedona, where my grandkids live, it's a very convenient campground for stores & restaurants, if the need arises. We camped here in a Campground Cabin.

This is a very nice campground. The older section has trees for shade. The upper section used to be overflow but now has been upgraded with hook-ups. Not all sites have fire rings but they are working on it. The Forest Service have several interesting guided tours as do some of the volunteers. Cottonwoods Old Town is trying to rebuild and making it a spot for tourists. It's worth while visiting. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We enjoyed our stay with a couple cautions. There is no security after 5pm when the front office closes. Our bicycle was stolen in the middle of the night by a local. We did get it back. Front office offered little help. Locals consider it a place to cruise at night. The electricity is very faulty, constant interruptions and breakdowns when air conditioners were used. The dry camp area is actually more spacious with a gorgeous view of Cottonwood and it would have been better for us to use our generator than suffer the constant elec. interruptions. Lovely setting but needs some work. We camped here in a camper.

I stayed a month plus 2 more weeks because I liked it. It's not for everyone, a bit older and a bit quirky. It's very pet friendly. Not big-rig-friendly. There are 3 sections with different rates - the front, the hill and the back. The spots in the back and on the hill are mostly long-term. Spots in back are along a road cut out of the hill next to the river. It's a tough turn-around and all are back in spots, but angled so that your door pretty much faces the river. That's where I stayed and it was great. My RV is 35' and it really no problem getting parked. Once parked it felt like a lot of space. I especially enjoyed the Verde River which flows along the side of the park and was about 30 feet from my door. The front section is more of a "standard" setup and the lowest rate. The hill is the highest rate and offers quite a lot of privacy. The bathroom/shower is passable - not exceptionally clean, but not gross. Wi-Fi is only available to the front spots. I use Verizon Wi-Fi and it worked very well in the back. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I used a laundromat in town (3-minute drive) that was 800 times nicer than the one on site. Some of the permanent residents are on the colorful side, but friendly enough. And there are tent sites in a park right along the river. Nicest tent sites in an RV park I've seen. My only complaint is the highway noise. It's quieter the farther in the back you go, the front is worse and the hill is quite loud. Convenient location. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Interesting old park on a creek (Verde River) and there is an ancient Indian mound on the property that can be hiked to. Centrally located with access to Sedona, Jerome, monuments and parks within the area. There are many permanent residents (scary looking and/or noisy) with NO restrictions to age/condition of unit/amount of junk allowed to be piled up around the RVs, though they do claim to have a unit age restriction. NOT big rig friendly and turning around is difficult. Very uneven sites that are not well maintained. If you're game, it's OK for a night or two but I found the place rather depressing due to the lack of standards. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The management does not know about RVs and has staff say they have spaces for big rigs. However, we saw MANY large rigs leave after stopping, and one even told us they were told this park was built for big rigs, but it is not. Motorhomes over 40' and fifth wheels over 34' will have a very difficult time finding a spot wide and long enough to allow ease of parking and length required. In order to park our 38' fifth wheel and dually truck, we had to use two spaces. Everyone that works there is friendly and spoke of how run down this park has become since new management took over. It is fine for rigs of moderate size, if you don't desire conveniences. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. We arrived after office hours, but they left a map and directions on the bulletin board for us. Getting parked, however, was not so simple. Our site was a river site, which required driving to the end of a dead-end gravel road and navigating a very, very tight turn-around circle. It might not have been so bad had they not put campsites in that circle with several big rigs and other vehicles parked there. We barely made it with our 27' travel trailer. A larger rig would have been stuck! Our river site backed up to the river, but there was a 30 foot drop-off immediately behind our trailer which meant constant monitoring of our 2 year old daughter every second that we spent outside (so we didn't go outside much in the campground). Fortunately, we spent most of the 3 days we were there hiking and visiting the shops in Sedona and cottonwood. There seemed to be quite a few permanent residents there as well, including one unit with a sliding glass door, plywood stairs, and a full sized refrigerator on the patio. The website also says rates are $25 per night, however we were charged $31. When I questioned it I was told the old manager set up the website and they didn't have the password to update it for 2006. On a more positive note, the location near Cottonwood and on the road to Sedona was great, and the management seemed to be making upgrades to the park. I think we'll try someplace else when we return to the Sedona area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Park is 90 percent permanent RV's. All the good sites are taken by the permanents. The overnighters are put next to the highway (very noisy) and little shade. The sewer connections were uphill in this area. The supposed riverfront sites they advertise are 100' straight up a bank and you have to stand on the edge to see the river, so they are not "on the river". The advertised "internet connection" was an old very small laptop in their office that you had to use. Would not stay there again and moved to Deadhorse Ranch State Park in Cottonwood. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed here for two weeks, then one night while we put our motor home in storage here. Nice campground but a few caveats: Sites are not level. It takes some work to get level. Not many 50 amp sites ($5/night extra). If you're with Thousand Trails you make a reservation with them then have to call the campground direct to reserve a 50amp site. When you arrive you are told to drive around and pick a site (if you've reserved 50 amp they give you a list of sites available) so there may be a few RVs driving through the four areas looking for sites. Better to drive around in your toad. Wi-Fi is only available in the clubhouses; not broadcast throughout the park. Other than these items we enjoyed our stay and will return.

We spent most of the winter here and found the campground and staff outstanding. Volunteers keep a constant list of activities running for folks to participate in. The pool reopened 1st of March and all the amenities are clean and well maintained. February & March Snowbirds were migrating and the CG was packed but efficient. There is plenty to do in the surrounding area, lots of things to see, trails to hike, Rec. Center in Cottonwood has an active Silver Sneakers Program.

Verde Valley, Cottonwood, is a snowbird destination park this time of year. The park is not full and there are four separate sections to choose from but few 50 AMP sites. The CG borders the Verde River with walking trail access in addition to the nature trails within the park. The pool closed 11-20 for the season. Laundry, restrooms & showers are clean and the CG is kept neat by staff. We found the interior roads to be more than wide enough and most of the interior sites are pull-through with shared utility stanchions. Access from AZ-260 is an asphalt road which passes through an open range area and there are cattle to watch out for and share the road with on occasion. There is plenty to do in Verde Valley and good services in Cottonwood, Clarkdale and Camp Verde. The nights get a little cold but no a big deal. It gets colder in Flagstaff and Prescott. We intend to stay with this CG for a month or two and would definitely return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We've always enjoyed this park. It is clean, quiet, the sites are large and grassy with a picnic table provided. Since the hook-ups are in the middle for 2 sites, you can be fairly close to your neighbor on the drivers side. There is a pool, pickle ball courts, a pool table, a table tennis table, a volleyball court, etc. There are also several nature trails for hiking which are nicely laid out. Most sites are fairly level but I will agree with the others that the interior roads are narrow. We have camped here in the past and will definitely camp here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Our first stay at a Thousand Trails property and while talking to other RVers during our stay this is one of their best parks. It's an older park and needs some TLC. The restroom I used in the "C" area was clean and the park was generally well maintained. Most sites are 30 amp with only a few 50 amp available. Staff said they will upgrade sites to 50 amps during the off season over the next few years. Checking in at the guard gate during the winter months could take some time because there is only a single line and we had five units behind us on a Sunday in May. Interior roads are not very wide so be careful while driving in the park. Overall a good stay. Our nightly rate reflects the purchase of a "Zone Pass" for the southwest section of the United States.

This is a well maintained campground that is very busy in April. It is quiet and down in a hollow so personal computer email reception was not always the best. The people were friendly--there are lots of activities--nice meals if you want to buy them. Sites are fairly level and gravel. Great place to stay if you want to visit Jerome, Sedona, Montezuma's Castle and Well and the Grand Canyon. We are traveling with another couple and had to drive around for over 1/2 an hour to find pull-throughs that were close together as we share meals. It would have been nice to have been given a list of possible sites when we checked in. However, they don't do that. It is a place we will stay again and will tell others about it.

Very nice Thousand Trails campground. Very clean and well maintained. The sites are long and ours was a pull-through. Verizon signal worked well for both our phones and modem. Picnic table with each site. They have just redone the pool area but, in October, we did not use the pool. Has two very large commons rooms, a store with RV parts and supplies, and a small supply of convenience food items are available. Several short trails make it easy to walk around. The road into the campground is long and twisty and the speed limit is 5 mph. We enjoyed this (our first Thousand Trails campground) and will return. The price reflects the Thousand Trails price.

We have been to eight TT and this is our favorite to date. The scenery is magnificent which couldn't have hurt the review, and the upkeep of the park is very good. The manager I'm sure get's credit for this, as well as his staff. The only complaint is the Superhost program that allows non-members to reserve sites. Members can not do this. The manager worked with us so we could keep our awesome site though. Thank you! All in all a GREAT park. TT should emulate this park! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

It has been 3 years since we were in this park and over that time the improvements are obvious. The sites appear to be more level, things that needed painting have been painted. The rangers all seem to go out of there way to fully answer any question and if they were not sure, called to verify. There is always some activity and the food service is good. The small store is well stocked and priced within reason. They have added 50 amp sites for a additional charge, and during the hot times, it really comes in handy. We enjoyed our stay and will make it back in another few years. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We have learned that there is a huge difference in expectations of "campers" as some rate a campground based on criteria for an RV Resort. This is a campground: and a super one at that. The park actually has 3 separate sections that one can stay in. We stayed in the section close to the family lodge. Our site was level, neighbors were nice, staff was friendly and nice. Park was clean. We hated to move at the end of our time. The location is great as it is away from the city but yet, close to shopping needs. We would definitely return.

Good park, but not the best Thousand Trails park we've been in. Seemed that upkeep of RV sites and common areas needed more attention. However, as we've found with Thousand Trails, the family atmosphere and sense of community can't be beat. We enjoyed the pickleball games every morning and the restaurant was great. The "geocache" search of finding numbered rocks while traversing the trails within the park was lots of fun. Nice central location for visiting all the nearby tourist sights.

This park is part of the Thousand Trails/Naco system. It sits between I-17 & Cottonwood
off Rt. 269. Most sites are pull thru and can handle large rigs. Everything is immaculate, trash collected daily. Makes a great base from which to explore Sedona, Jerome, Prescott, etc. This is a great park in a beautiful, scenic area. I don't know if children are welcome. I would assume they are but I don't recall seeing any kids during my 5 days here so far. Staff is very friendly and helpful. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Great park. Close to everything and big rig friendly. Easy in and out. We were greeted by really nice staff who went out of their way to make our stay nice. This is a place to stay for awhile. Lots of big trees and shade. They even have a lounge with lots of books. I would have given a 10, but no pool. I will be back and stay there again. Rate is based on a 1 week stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We enjoyed a month's stay in this nice, old park. The site was large and level, rocked and shady. In spite of being on a major street, it's nice and quiet, and walking distance to a number of restaurants. Walmart and grocery stores are nearby. Everything worked well and was clean. The managers were very friendly and helpful. Yes, it is an older park, with some permanent residents in old units, but they are friendly and quiet. Could not ask for more. (The price I've listed is based on a rate of $400 a month.) We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Older park, level shaded sites. Helpful staff. Quiet. It is what it is. Would come back. Better TV and Wi-Fi than more expensive spots. We camped here in a Motorhome.

After checking out all the private campgrounds in the Cottonwood area, I found this one to be the best. While there are a number of long term and permanent residents in units sometimes on the shabbier side, the park is very clean, friendly, and safe with lots of shade. I have decided to stay on for a few months as a result. The gravel sites are mostly quite spacious and level with privacy fences in between. Cable and internet are included and while the internet works quite well at my site, I understand it can vary from site to site. There are two loops, one for 30 amp and one for 50 amp. There are no longer any pull through sites. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Older Park that advertises pull throughs but they do not have them. They could but chose not to let you have them. Owners were very nice and friendly and checked the park in even to see if you needed anything. The fill in office staff was rude and seemed too busy to be helpful and not polite when asked questions. Park had very clean showers and restrooms. Would not stay here again as it is not set up for larger homes. More for long term campers and perm residents. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice people, small comfortable park, very helpful. Told me this park may be put into a historic listing: it has been here a long time. Nice area, near a lot of attractions. Cottonwood is small and very clean. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Hostess was very nice to deal with but sadly this park really lacks appeal in appearance. Very small, one little loop is all it consists of. It seemed to be mostly long term residents or at least looks that way. I decided to move onto another spot. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This wasn't a bad park to stay in for a couple of days. Close to everything in town, and managers were friendly and very helpful. Not many amenities, but we would stay again if we were in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park is nice and clean. River rock sites with a lot of shade since it is an older park. Many
full time residents. No pool. Great bathrooms that are old but extremely well maintained. A nice overnight or two-three nite park. Our daughter and
son-in-law live there so we use it as a base to visit with them. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice clean shaded RV park with river rock sites (no dirt/gravel) in town. Clean well kept restrooms even though park seems to be old and was at one time just a trailer trash park. Has been renovated and kept up nicely. We camped here in a camper.
