As of June 1st, 2020 - there is a $15/night fee.
Located 10 minutes (five miles) outside of downtown Winslow. From Winslow, take Rt. 87 South to Highway 99 and turn left.
Great free campsite. Only 4 others here and it's a Friday in March. That might be because it's going to get down to 31 degrees tonight, which means the water is shut off, so no bathrooms. There's a tight left turn at the backside of the loop. 40 foot class A's had no problem, though. They got the best spots with a view closest to the water. There's no shoulder on the right when you come in, so be careful if you're coming in after dark. There's a great little playground for the kids you'll see from the entrance. Everything was very peaceful, but on our third night, St. Patty's, someone was shooting at coyotes or something on the private land across the reservoir after midnight. I counted a clip and a half exactly over 5 minutes. No whizzing bullets and probably a one-off. No problems at all beside that. Safeway 15 min away with water machines. Full LTE Verizon.
Ample parking and a good boat ramp to put in. Waters are usually calm and great for kayaking/paddleboarding. Lots of places for cliff jumping and swimming, too.
Pretty nice place. Not much in the shade department but a towns well kept secret! 4th of July was not busy, night time the stars are vibrant and seem as if you could reach out n touch them. everyone very courteous. Super nice can't wait to go again.
No potable water, but it does have toilets with running water. Showers are inoperative at the moment. Trash dumpster at the campsite if needed. Camping is right on the water. No trees for canopy. Sites have concrete picnic tables. Watch for goatheads near the shore. (Stickers) Lots of different birds if you're a birder. Great place to kayak and fish for rainbow trout. Camping is $15/day.
Little park area is nice but, 15 for camping here is outrageous. No showers, they are broken. Bathroom out of a horror movie. A tremendous amount of trash. Sure it’s probably nice to play in the park and fish. But that’s about it.
