Woods Canyon Group Campground

The Woods Canyon Group Campground can accomodate up to 70 campers. 9 individual campsites surround a central community picnic/gathering area. This campsite is located away from the other campgrounds and can handle large groups with ease.

Woods Canyon Lake, the most popular camping area in the entire state, has much to offer. Virtually every amenity is either available on site or within a few miles. The Woods Canyon Group campground is just 1/4 mile south of the Aspen Campground. Woods Canyon Group Campground is by reservation only.

Located at the lake is a country store complete with boat rentals and a battery charging station for those who bring their own trolling motors. The store pretty much has everything you might need for a great camping trip. A phone is available at the front door of the store.

Just around the corner from the store is the Rocky Point day use area. There is a charge to use the parking area but it is minimal ($5.00). There is good fishing down by Rocky Point and I tend to spend at least one afternoon there every visit.

A dump station is located back up the road about 1 mile as you exit the Woods Canyon Recreation Area.

The Rim Visitors Information Center is located at the junction of the S. R. 260 and Rim Road.

Showers are located at Canyon Point Campground 5 miles east of the visitors center on S. R. 260. The charge for using the showers is $5.00.


Directions

From Payson, travel east on U.S. 260 until you reach the top of the Mogollon Rim and turn left on F. R. 300 (Rim Road). Travel west on Rim Road 3.4 miles to the Rec. Area entrance. Turn right at the entrance and travel 1.25 miles to the campground on the right. Don't forget to stop by the scenic stops along Rim Road for spectacular views of the Mogollon Rim and the valley below.
