Sycamore Campground is a secluded camping area located in the Coconino National Forest, just a short drive from Sedona, Arizona. The campground offers stunning views of the surrounding red rock formations and is situated near Oak Creek, which provides ample opportunities for fishing and hiking.
There are several nearby points of interest, including the Red Rock State Park and Slide Rock State Park. The town of Sedona is also just a short drive away, offering shopping, dining, and other attractions.
