Camping at Aspen (Az)

About this campground

The campground is a popular base for trout fishing, hiking, boating and photography as part of the larger Rim Lakes Recreation Area; an easy trail loops the lake and two other high-elevation lakes are a short drive away.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (26,374 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
