Hon-Dah RV Park in Lakeside, AZ: Mountain Camping Guide

This place is absolutely lovely and impeccably clean. The location couldn't be more convenient for exploring the area. It's a truly wonderful find that exceeded our expectations. We felt very comfortable and well-cared for during our stay. We highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a pleasant experience.

Friendly service at the front desk, clean sites & lots of trees to provide shade! Who needs trails when you can stay here & walk the RV park surrounded by nature!!!

Great park!  Horrible management!!! Rude, non attentive,  hard to work with!!!! There are plenty of great RV spots in the area!  Don’t be bullied by this staff!!!

Very nice and beautiful settings. We do enjoy the park it’s very quite and friendly campers. However, the women working in the front office have terrible attitudes. They seem to have control issues and enjoy telling people “No!” They respond with sarcastic comments. These woman are unnecessarily rude. Perhaps the WMAT should consider some customer service training.

The location is totally 5 stars, but the front office doesn’t deserve a single star! Hence my 2 stars.

The staff that work in the actual camp area are extremely friendly and helpful. Those people definitely deserve 5+ stars.

We love going to this place. It could be a little confusing to get around the first time but if you ask someone will lead you to your spot! Quite, roomy sites that make you feel like your in the forest. Make sure to call for reservations as this place seems to always be full witch is a good problem to have!

Beautiful campground. Don't get me wrong, I truly appreciate this RV park. It's really nice and secluded. After a 12 hour day of driving, we arrived and everyone in the office was very kind. We were really exhausted. And, that's where it all began...the maze. She drew our spot on the map and it looked simple enough to find, until you actually got into the campground. The street signs are hard to read. The street names and numbers didn't coordinate with the map. We've managed and worked at campgrounds with hundreds of sites before. We literally drove in circles trying to find our spot. I understand it's difficult to find people to escort to a site. Times are tough. But, oh my word, if this would have been during busy season, it would have been an accident waiting to happen. Luckily, it's off season and we only encountered a couple of vehicles while driving the maze. It took us 15 minutes only because we are both typically good at map reading and understanding how number sequences work. For the average camper who hasn't worked at a campground, this would be terrible. We have to run errands during our stay and I'll admit I am a bit anxious about finding our site again. We may have to lay an M n M trail to find it. Lol!. Outside of that, this really is a gorgeous campground with super friendly Ladies in the office. 4 stars only because of the direction issues.

I am ambivalent about this one. The park setting is great as it is in a beautiful pine forrest. The sites are mostly nice and spaceous. Be careful, though, there are exceptions such as crossroad pull throughs.
Now we go downhill. The park roads layout is a bewildering Cretan labyrinth like the back streets in Venice. Not all the roads have clear signs and the site numbers are hard to see. Don't try to find your site at night. Given all of that, it would be nice to get an escort to your site the first time.These roads are also quite full of potholes and axle cracking speed bumps every few dozen yards. The 5 mph speed limit here is insane, but exceed that and you will get finger wagging.
There are three laundromats here, but in two of them every last machine was out of order. In the third one 2/3 of the machines were in the same condition.
In general, this park had an air and look of not being very well maintained.

In late September the temperature was perfect. It seems there are plenty of longer term tenants that have made a home here. Although each lot looked clean and well kept. I would assume with the long term tenants, this RV Park is preferable. From my 2 day stay, I can't complain. It was peaceful and still carried the nature vibe, especially with the random squirrel wandering about. The shower room was very clean and temperature controlled. The outlet didn't work however. I would definitely come back to stay in the future.

We really enjoy staying here, we've been 4 different times and the spaces we have stayed in were all roomy and clean. The park now has over 700 spaces, so look online at the park map before you call and choose several spots you think you might like. They do have 2 laundry rooms that were large and clean too. The last spot we stayed at was in the new area and our spot was ALL ankle breaker size rocks, so I spent a lot of time clearing those off that spot. You're welcome.  🤣

I looked on the website it said they have monthly sites. So we drive over . The lady behind the desk was talking to me like she didn't want to be there. And said no you can only stay 3 weeks then leave for 3 weeks and pay a weekly rate of over $200. If you want to stay a month then you got to reserve it in October so I figured they were full. Nope not even close I drove through the long term area it was half empty. And I have a friend staying there and he said he has never heard of reserving in October he didn't.  And monthly rent is a little over 500 . So I  see it as they just want more money. Will not go back.

The 5 star service has been super friendly both times I have camped there.  The environment doesn't feel as "holiday-ish" as I would expect.  It seems to be geared toward long term RVers and less toward weekenders making me feel a bit like I was camping in someone's back yard.  It was very peaceful and beautiful and the grounds were clean.  It's a good spot for  home-base camping for touring around the eastern White Mountains. If your family or group is a lively bunch, this may not be the best suited place.

Stayed 2 nights in Dec, 2021 in a 30' RV. Upon arrival to a 500 site camp, only 2 sites were available. One was too tight to get into and the other was far from the bathhouse. The place has a lot of fulltime empty campers from what we could see. The front desk gave me the wrong instructions twice for getting into the pull-thru sites. The place is full of lovely trees but this makes the sites very, very, very tight. The bathhouses have only two rooms for each section of the campground and they are very unclean. Very poorly maintained. The showers at the office close with the office and the men's was out of order as was the laundry. This was our 18th RV park in two months and ranks at the bottom of the list. We will not return and cannot recommend.

Beautiful RV park, kids park, picnic area, beautiful pine trees. Looking forward to taking our 5th wheel there for the summer

We were a little disappointed in this park. It was very difficult to navigate in the down pour of rain. And our site was between two tall pines, you could tell that others have had problems getting in by the amount of broken lenses on the ground.  Escorted parking would be great for this park, who's roads are poorly marked. Roads really need an upgrade, new gravel or re-asphaulting would make a big visual improvement.
Otherwise rate is good and staff were friendly and helpful.

Lay out of park is crazy, its huge with more spaces being added. easy to get turned around. Our group was at least half a mile from one another. Reasonably priced.

Let's be real, for you folks that don't know or are just starting out you might think casinos aren't bad. I retired 25 years ago and traveled from Phoenix to N Y during that time and there's very few people that have been in more casino than me.  oh u might win a few bucks here and there but your not going to win like we did before the virus. Forget it your just not going to win like yesterday bottom line
