To camp in the heart of the San Francisco Peaks, also known as the Kachina Peaks, look no further than Lockett Meadow Campground.

At 8,544 feet, Lockett Meadow is perched at the base of this ancient stratovolcano's collapsed eastern face. Just a few feet from the campground is a trailhead leading up into the aspen-covered Inner Basin caldera, where additional trails take campers to the volcano’s rim and the summit of Humphreys Peak. The 17 campsites feature picnic tables, fire rings, and a vault toilet, though there is no water at this primitive campground. The dirt road approach is rugged as well, and not recommended for RVs or trailers. The campground is part of the Coconino National Forest, and Flagstaff is just 40 minutes away.

Tips for Snagging a Campsite Reservation

  • All 17 Lockett Meadow campsites are available on a first-come, first-served basis only.
  • Arrive early in the morning or on a weekday to snag a spot, especially during the busy summer season.
  • If Lockett Meadow is full, the nearby Bonito Campground offers 22 reservable campsites and 21 walk-in sites. Dispersed camping options can also be found in this area.

    • When to Go

    Lockett Meadow Campground’s open season depends on snowpack, but it typically begins in mid-May and ends in mid-October. The campground may be open, though unmaintained, during the off-season as well. In summer, you’ll find an array of wildflowers at Lockett Meadow and the Inner Basin. Come fall, the aspens in the caldera and on the volcano’s slopes turn a beautiful golden hue. Contact the Flagstaff ranger station at (928) 526-0866 for information on the current season’s opening dates, and pack for the possibility of rain and cold weather during all seasons.

    Grand Canyon Oasis High Desert Camp

    13 sites · Lodging, RVs10 acres · Doney Park, AZ
    We are a family-owned RV park and tiny home village located 50 minutes from the east entrance to Grand Canyon National Park and only 20 minutes north of Flagstaff, Arizona. Our family -- Adam, Shelley, Zoe, Ava, and Cairo -- purchased the RV park in 2021. The property was a trading post for decades but had fallen into disrepair. We have been busy painting, cleaning and improving the grounds to become a comfortable oasis for your family. Our location on US Hwy 89 on the east side of the highway is only a few miles from the breathtaking aspens of Lockett Meadow, the ruins of Wupatki National Monument and the lava flows at Sunset Crater. The park is a short drive to downtown Flagstaff, and on the way to the Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Lake Powell, Moab and Durango. Stay the night or as long as you like! Drink in the hibiscus sunrises above the Painted Desert and relax into the long shadows of the San Francisco Peaks. Let us know if you want to borrow a telescope to explore the darkest night sky you have ever seen! We are excited to share our home with you!

Nearby activities include: bird watching, hiking, river rafting or tubing, kayaking, fishing, swimming, stargazing, and rockhounding. This area conforms to the Arizona Dark Sky initiative, and while we are not dark-sky certified, we've had several guests compliment us on our beautiful skys. When it comes to rockhounding, or amateur geology, this is a fantastic area for exploration and study. We gladly welcome pets, as long as you take care of all their needs, including cleaning up any mess and filling in any holes. Well mannered, friendly dogs may be unleashed from time to time. Please, PLEASE watch your small pets carefully. If you're traveling with cats, please keep them on a lead. There is a riding academy and boarding facility adjacent to our property, and a long pleasant trail allows horseback riders, hikers and cyclists to travel along the Verde Greenway into Old Town Cottonwood, a pleasant 30 minute walk through lush riparian area.

Two generations have lived and died here before us and we are proud to be the custodians of this majestic property, full of old growth, gigantic cottonwood trees. A birdwatcher, or naturalists dream. Hawks Hideaway is a natural and secluded spot located directly adjacent to the state-maintained Verde River Greenway. This means you may encounter wildlife and pests associated with being in such close connection to nature. Hawks Hideaway is next to many miles of wilderness. You may see or encounter wildlife of all kinds, most are harmless, some are dangerous. It is your responsibility to know the difference. Be prepared to tuck your food away and bring ample protection from the insects. You are responsible for your own safety and are camping here at you own risk.

    Welcome to your slice of high desert heaven! Desert Sky Campground is our private piece of Earth nestled in between the south rim of the Grand Canyon/Kaibab National Forest and Flagstaff/Coconino National Forest. Feel free to pick your favorite spot on this nearly 5-acre canvas with a fantastic view of the San Francisco peaks that surround Flagstaff. Want to clear a space for your tent or RV? Go ahead and gently remove any small shrubs. Just remember to leave the bigger plants and trees standing tall. The road leading here might be a bit bumpy, so a 4x4 with good clearance is your best bet. Now, let's talk about the real magic: no frills, just pure, untouched nature. Think of it as your own private BLM land. Please, treat it with respect. Pack out all your trash and minimize your impact. No bathrooms, no water, no electricity – just you, the stars, and the incredible outdoors. After a day of hiking, skiing, or exploring, come back to your campsite and enjoy the breathtaking night sky. It’s the perfect way to unwind and recharge.

    This is a very nice remote place to camp at, however it is over run with NAU students in the camp ground. I was there last Friday night and a group of five guys were making loud noises all night. It sounded as if they were shaping sheet metal with loud banging. They then started back up with the loudness at 6:00am! During the day you have massive amounts of cars arriving from the valley to do day hiking. The camping areas are bathed in dust all day as cars come and go. Over all the area is over stressed with people using the facilities. If you want a nice quite camping experience I would skip this place!

    One of the best campgrounds in AZ - imo. Stock up in Flag just before heading out of town and get into the wilderness! It's a 3 mile uphill drive along a very well maintained dirt road that does get narrow as it winds it way up to the meadow. There are only a couple of sites at Lockett so get there early (first come first serve basis). $14 per site - up to 8 people max in each. The open season is May-October 12. It is free outside of the open season dates, but this area does close down once the road is deemed too dangerous in the winter. The meadow is tucked away affording views of the surrounding San Francisco Peaks Wilderness. Solitude and beauty are your compadres here. Fall is probably the primo time to visit.

    Lockett Meadow in Fall = Aspens raining thousands of bright yellow leaves on your head, perpetual views of the Flagstaff area, snowpeak mountain tops behind you, and endless trails to venture upon with any outdoor seeker. This past weekend, a friend and I camped at spot 15 in Lockett Meadow and were gifted with one of our favorite camping experiences in AZ. The campground has huge group sites, but also small pieces of solitude. Some notes: - The forest road to Lockett Meadow is a well-maintained dirt road but does climb alongside a cliff so drive slowly and carefully. I drove in a small Chrysler with no 4-wheel drive - any car should make it. - Lockett Meadow campground is right near the Inner Basin trailhead. - Reserve far ahead!

    Sites were very precise and pre-determined; I thought I would hate the rigidity of the setup, but I didn't mind it after all.

    Your guide to camping in Lockett Meadow Campground

    Overview

    Biking

    Although no biking is allowed in the Kachina Peaks Wilderness, a network of US Forest Service roads near this campground are fair game. You can also find a lift-assisted downhill MTB track back through town at Snowball.

    Hiking

    The Inner Basin Trail starts near Lockett Meadow and leads to the crater at the base of the towering San Francisco Peaks, an area protected by the Kachina Peaks Wilderness. This trail eventually crosses the Doyle Saddle Trail, which climbs up the rim of the volcano and allows you to summit Humphreys Peak, the highest point in Arizona at 12,637 feet. Hiking off-trail above 11,400 feet is not allowed in this delicate wilderness.

    Climbing

    Multiple trad, sport, and boulder climbing sites sit within an hour of Lockett Meadow, including Hobo Jungle, Ghost Town, and the Freidlein Prairie boulders. Climbing stores in Flagstaff can provide gear and beta.

    Wildlife watching

    Lockett Meadow is home to elk, porcupines, and black bears, among other critters.
