Coconino/Ashurst Lake
Casey Kellogg
Fishing this year is not good. The water level is low and no fish are being caught. Last year I walked away with my limit on every occasion I went throughout the year. This is the only time I've ever come home empty handed. I didn't get a single bite. I saw no fish jumping. There were no eagles diving like I usually see. There were 100+ anglers on the lake and not a single fish caught. The campgrounds are A+, but if you're looking for fish, this lake isn't producing and I'm concerned the low levels might effect fishing into the future as many Arizona lakes are experiencing the same issues.

More rocky and "desert like" than pine trees. Some campsites have one tent site but others (like the site we had) had 3 spots for tents. The lake was beautiful. It got more crowded on the weekend. The bathrooms were taken care of and cleaned every day by the camp host. Plus for the potable water and trash site available to the campers. Overall we had a nice stay at this campground

27$ a night. Vaulted welkeept toilets no flies. Water front. Many FF first come first serve camping areas and each site has a bbq pit and table. Sunsets are fabulous and the sound of the wind blowing threw the gras and leaves is calming. Deffi atly going back to this hidden jem. Be sure to say hello to the attendant Kathlean. She is a sweet heart she had bandades firstaid kit as well. She comes around with fire wood too. Enjoy.

Well maintained campground. Reservations were easy to make and the camp hosts did an excellent job of keeping up the facilities Some of the sites are a little close to follow campers, but all in all, a great place to take the family.

We just love Ashurst lake! You have forest leading up to the lake and right before the lake is a huge meadow and if you make a right and go up that hill there's amazing camping you have the woods you have the meadow you have the lake. The one time I couldn't get my spot up there It really just wasn't the same. Campsites are far enough apart that you can have privacy. I love my spot up on the hill by Ashurts lake!! The lake is pretty nice It is surrounded mostly by rock and muck so we mostly stay in the woods! Grateful🙏

24 miles to Flagstaff, a good camping area close to the lake and great for families. However, there were several downsides: our lot was small with too many big rocks on the ground, and there was almost no flat surface to set up a tent. There was also no quiet time—people watched movies and talked loudly until almost 2 a.m. Although family-friendly, two separate babies were crying during the night, so be prepared for frequent wake-ups. On the positive side, Ranger David was great—kind and helpful. There is water access and the restrooms were clean. Overall, it was okay. I might try another lot like #8, but ours (#20) was awful—I would never book it again.

A rather Slow drive due to 90% of the road being NON-Maintained washboard and it's narrow (single width), so try to find a flat spot immediately Off the road when people come to pass you. Very good people fishing and it was rather quiet except laughing in the distance, which is a good thing.

It is a campground outdoor potties or bring your own potties. It's out in the woods. It's great for fishing and cam being you're just to get away for the day.

Asher Lake is a great location. Only 2 1/2 hours from Phoenix. We caught four rainbow trout and did some hiking around the lake beautiful area.

The Campground was nice, the host was very nice and helpful, really clean bathrooms. The worst was the boat ramp it is so tore up its 4-wheel drive only! We watched several people have to be towed up the ramp We could not launch our boat, very disappointing when you plan on fishing for a week and you have to sit on shore. Would live to go back, not until the ramp is as advertised on their website. It needs to be noted so others like us don't have to sit on shore 4-WHEEL DRIVE ONLY BOAT LAUNCH!! be aware!!

Such a cute campground! I loved the location, is was super close to the actual lake. The campsites themselves were very clean and spacious, and there were a lot available when we arrived. The host is super friendly and always available for questions and requests. Definitely recommend!

The place is clean and the camp hosts are so incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. Small lake is great for a more intimate experience. My dog had a blast. Driving there in September was so breath taking. The meadows were full of beautiful flowers. I feel comfortable enough to camp there solo.
