Customer Reviews
This is a great free place to camp and enjoy the Mongollon Rim. Site 16 had a nice natural ledge million dollar view. Windy sometimes but it's expected. Was quiet at night. Sites are far apart and most separated by Tres and bushes. Large sites. Really wonderful for free. There is only a fire ring at the site. Vault toilets at the entrance. Road is 2 wheel drive accessible as long as not a low rider.
One of the best campsites I've been to, free, great view, ample space between sites. Road in is a little rough but I made it in a sedan, good for FR standards. The prime sites can be taken quickly I'd suggest coming well before sundown if you want a great view. Plenty of spots farther on as well.
If your vehicle is ready to take on something a little rugged you can definitely find some amazing camp spots on this route
Well used to be nicest campground on the rim but forrest service ruined it. Cut all the shade pines, left about 8 trees per acre & a big wind came & since it was so thin blew over 4 left on every acre. They have not bladed the road in 2 years, same huge potholes & watterpuddles. 1 tree per camp area has shade, just not enuff. They are paving the 300 to bear canyon lake so no more washboard. But it drops you off to bc lake with 1 way in 1 way out & a parking lot for 25vehicles. There is miles of marked hiking trails but at the end of the road are a dozen blown over trees blocking the trail. You'd never know there back there. & bysome freak wind storm some trees blew over the road left to right, then magically they blew rt to left , rootbal rocks whole shebang! Yes again poor forrest service management . It's 2 miles from. Woods canyon lake so bring your paddleboard or kayak. They do rent them at the lake 25$/ hr If your lucky there's elk in the area rainbows & quite the view, plan on it being windy
Awesome, awesome experience. Get out and enjoy the woods. Free dispersed camilping along the rim with a total of 41 sites near woods canyon lake. Why pay when the forest was meant to be free. Cool weather in the low 50s at night during June. Camping was a blast was quiet, not really windy. Had no weather issues either. Definitely a great place to spend time with friends and family. 4 days out there and no regrets.
Very quiet area while I was there. There were two spots with host signs, so it seems like it's maintained. No noisy generators ,music, or barking dogs while I camped. Lots of space in between spots, so you're not camping on top of the people beside you. No hookups (dry/dispersed camping for a reason). I'll be going back for sure
What a fantastic find. On my way back to Michigan from Phoenix, I was looking for a spot to stay the night and stumbled upon this place. Loved it. Was lucky to get a site as it was Sunday and some were leaving. Stayed on site #33. Breathtaking views. The sites are far apart so there is plenty of privacy. I will definitely come back.
