Campgrounds in Camp Verde

Clear Creek Campground is a campground in Camp Verde run by USFS. Sites here can be reserved. To get there, take Exit 287 off Interstate 17, then turn onto AZ-260 and drive about 8 miles. ADA access is marked N, so plan for sites that are not set up for wheelchairs. The listed phone is (928) 204-0028. One thing looks odd. The email is clearcreek@gmail.com, a free mail address rather than an agency one, so we would call before trusting it. We do not have hours, fees, or the number of sites on file.

Lawrence Crossing Dispersed Camping Area is a dispersed camping area near Rimrock, Arizona, run by the United States Forest Service. It takes no reservation, so sites are first come. Dispersed camping means no numbered pads, no water, no toilets and no trash service. You camp on ground that is already cleared and carry out what you bring, including waste. A high clearance vehicle helps on forest roads, and they can turn bad after rain. Fire restrictions change with the season and can close ground like this at short notice, so check the current order before you go. Carry all the water you will need for the stay.
