Summary
No reservations or permits are required, and camping is free. Amenities include picnic tables, fire rings, and pit toilets; however, there is no potable water or hookups, and RVs are not recommended due to rough road access. Tucked among tall sycamores and cottonwoods along a creek, the campground delivers a peaceful, shady experience with wildlife sightings and access to the scenic Pinal Mountains. Visit in spring or fall for mild weather and nearby hiking trails like the Icehouse Canyon Trail.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
