Any good family campgrounds in Prescott area? Looking for a longer term summer place to keep and head to with the family.

We found the Fairgrounds RV Park in Prescott Valley AZ very nice.

You had another post recently in which you said you preferred Pinetop. Are you looking elsewhere now? Prescott can get hot in summer unless you are in the forest service campgrounds. Another 'cool' place is Flagstaff. Munds Park is just south of Flagstaff so you might try there or Greer's Pine Shadows in Flagstaff.

We've been through Prescott several times and parked our DP in relatives yard since they have three acres. However, knowing they were going to sell the house we've been looking at the various RV parks. Most are way too crowded and have too many permanent people with too much junk The last time through Prescott we were only going to be there one night so we tried the fairgrounds. It was easy to get into, out of and parking was easy due to the large spaces. When we go back through again, we'll stay at the fairgrounds.red Bill

I prefer Pinetop area, but we have looked up near Flag, and specifically Munds. We also have looked at Cottonwood, even though that is much warmer than I would like. Just not a lot of family type places..... at least that I have found. Extended search to Prescott, saw a place called Point of Rocks, but thought there might be alternates up higher.

Would Williams be too far for you? The parks there are family-tourist oriented.

How about Elk Pines in Heber? Show Low Lake Campground? Ponderosa RV Resort, Pinetop? HonDah Casino, Pinetop?

Good luck!

Elk Pines - I was very interested in, however their website says they are now 55+ which is what most in that part of state are. Show Low Lake campground I will look at, Love Fools Hollow, but they dont allow for more than 2 weeks. Williams we like, and its not too far. The KOA there is nice, but expensive for long term, and I have found nothing else close that has amenities.

In Williams we stay at the Grand Canyon Railway RV park. Its next to the grand canyon railroad depot and hotel. RV guests can use the hotels indoor pool.

Around Williams there are 3 KOA's. We prefer the Circle Pines KOA over the others as its the only one thats wooded. There are a few other RV parks as well but GC Railway RV is by far the nicest. Even has an onsite kennel if you have pets you want to leave for the day while out and about.
