A forested campground near fishing, hiking, and mountain biking.

About this campground

About 20 miles north of Cave Creek and Carefree on Forest Road 24, Cave Creek Group Site sits in a narrow valley of juniper and sycamore that provides plentiful shade and noticeably cooler temperatures than the Phoenix lowlands. Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s, the site centers on a single large group camping area the campground has one reservable group site that accommodates both tents and RVs and a shallow creek fed by seven small springs (only several inches deep) where kids and adults sometimes hunt for crawdads.

“We enjoy using this spot for our church group every spring at Seven Springs Group Campground.”

Sheila K 5 · Apr 2024 · Recreation.gov

“Took some Cub Scouts up in early March. Awesome spot, but really tough to judge the forecast (important with little kids). Nighttime lows were 8-10 degrees lower than expected. Still had a great time with daytime highs of 70, but lows almost got down to freezing. ”
