Camping at White Spar Campground near Prescott

Public campground · Prescott · 40 campsites

A forested campground near fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Beyond the loop, White Spar is a convenient base for a wide range of Prescott National Forest recreation. Multiple interlocking trails near the campground make it easy to switch between hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding without driving, and the pine- and manzanita-covered landscape is productive for birdwatching and wildlife viewing.

“No complaints, my visit was enjoyable. It's nice to be able to camp at a primitive campground that is well maintained. Thanks, Bruce”

“Nice spot to dry camp. Even tho there are no hookups with your RV, it’s very nice. There is potable water to fill your water bottles. It is clean and quiet. And close to stores and fuel.”

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 (20,300 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.
