We stayed here for 4 days. It is a really nice state park with easy access in and out. One thing I will say here is that site numbers matter. If you can get a site that is close to the water than this is probably a great park. If you can't get a site on the water, then your money is better spent elsewhere.

We stayed here for 4 days. It is a really nice state park with easy access in and out. One thing I will say here is that site numbers matter. If you can get a site that is close to the water than this is probably a great park. If you can't get a site on the water, then your money is better spent elsewhere. Our site was not on the water and while it was a quick 5 minute walk down to the water, it wasn't worth the $38 a night. The site is $28 plus $10 a day park pass.
The park is really pretty and is very clean. Access getting in and out is easy for any size rig. I do wish there was a bit more "beach" access. There isn't really anywhere to just go sit and hang out by the lake. The access areas are pretty small and not conducive to just sitting by the lake. Didn't see any moose or elk during out time but it was probably a bit warm for them. Saw some deer and lots of humming birds.
If I was to stay in this area again I would for sure stay at one of the many campsites along the river on HWY 14 and probably wouldn't stay here again for the cost.
Note: It appears that the vendor who used to run everything around must have gotten into a fight with the state and lost his contract. Its all over the state park page. Due to this there is no longer any showers here and the general store that used to be down by the road is also closed. The RV dump stations are still open though which is nice.

We spent one night here while traveling in our 30 ft RV, but wished we would have stayed longer. Our reservation for a lakeside spot, #245 was made well in advance, and although the access road was dirt and dusty it led to great mountain and lake views.

We spent one night here while traveling in our 30 ft RV, but wished we would have stayed longer. Our reservation for a lakeside spot, #245 was made well in advance, and although the access road was dirt and dusty it led to great mountain and lake views. We were in a section with only a few spots and it was very quiet. Deer and Moose were seen from our campsite there are a few trails to walk or roads to explore. This was great dry camping with no cell service and no hookups. Vault style toilets were clean, and I would highly recommend this campground or the adjacent ones to those who enjoy nature and dry camping.
One Note: the dump station is located in another campground that is near the entrance to the State Park, but was not operational and under construction when we were there 6/2022.
AZ High Country would stay here again

The site itself had a great view of the lake. Surrounding area had a lot of cleared trees and not the most amazing scenery. Sites didn’t give much privacy and made it really easy for people to walk through sites to get to the lake.
We’ve stayed at better parks

It's well worth the drive through the park. Awesome places to camp, beautiful scenery, and lots of fun looking for deer, elk, and especially Moose.
