Point Of Rocks RV Campground
Overview
Point of Rocks RV Campground offers a unique camping experience in the heart of Prescott’s iconic landscape. Known for its incredible rock formations, this park provides a scenic escape while remaining close to modern conveniences. Visitors often come for the natural beauty and stay for the peaceful atmosphere that defines this northern Arizona destination. It is a privately owned park that emphasizes the preservation of its rugged, rocky environment.
Location & Surroundings
The campground is tucked directly within the Granite Dells, a geological wonder consisting of billion-year-old granite boulders. It is positioned just a short walk from Watson Lake Park, where campers can enjoy breathtaking views of the blue water contrasted against the rugged rocks. This location provides a dramatic backdrop that feels isolated and wild, despite being located only five miles from the city’s historic center.
Amenities & Park Features
This park balances utility with nature, providing full hookup sites that accommodate various RV sizes. While the focus remains on the outdoors, guests have access to high-speed Wi-Fi, clean restroom facilities, and coin-operated laundry services. Every site is designed to integrate with the natural environment, offering picnic tables and direct access to the sprawling trail system that winds through the surrounding property and public lands.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Adventure is just steps away with the Peavine National Recreation Trail, which is ideal for hiking or mountain biking through the dells. For a touch of local history, a quick drive leads to Whiskey Row in downtown Prescott, famous for its Victorian architecture and lively western saloons. Boating, fishing, and kayaking on Watson Lake are also popular activities easily accessible for those staying at the park.
Who This Park Is Best For
This location is a haven for nature photographers and outdoor enthusiasts who value scenery over resort-style amenities like swimming pools or clubhouses. It is perfect for travelers seeking a quiet retreat with unparalleled access to hiking and water activities. If you prefer waking up surrounded by ancient geology rather than a typical concrete parking lot, this park is an excellent choice for your Arizona travels.

Fantastic location, setting, and value. The park is nestled amongst the rocks and free trail access to Watson Lake Park. Laundry and bathrooms are clean, WiFi is secure and a descent speed (~10mb/s down), good cell reception. Bathrooms/showers vary with the nicest/newest one being down by the office. Easy, well-organized check-in/out process. They supply an array of helpful welcome guides to the park and area attractions.

Wonderful place to stay just north of Prescott. 2nd generation owners since the 1970’s! We stayed 3 nights in a value site which worked well with our van and close to the bathroom and laundry and garbage bins. Campground is built in hills so bring leveling blocks. Saw all sizes of rigs come and use the sites. Only thing I wish they had was a dog park…just not sure where they’d put it. We would stay again though!

Fantastic location to be able to hike to two different lakes. Great RV campground. We were parked right up against the rocks. Very quiet, couldn’t even see our neighbors, bathrooms were spotless with strong, hot showers. We loved the city of Prescott, A short drive to downtown

We stayed in the upper camping area where we had easy access to the trail to Watson Lake. Great for day hikes and walking our dog. We also brought the Mtn Bikes as there are several trail options in this area. The layout and amenities of the campground are nice. There are hot showers and bathrooms in both the upper and lower areas along with a laundry facility. The store at the Campground is nice for last minute items like ice and bottled water we forgot to pick up. Some of the sites have beautiful rock formations for back drops. Ours looked out over the Watson park area which was an equally nice and provided great views. The only negative is traffic picks up on Hwy 89 around 6:30-7am. There are a couple local hot rods that like to race out of the area on their way to work. It wasn't that big of deal as my wife and I work remote during the day and play in the afternoons/weekend

I love this place! First visit. Better signage, maybe a slow down lane? Hard to get in and out with traffic. Nice, clean place. Office has a few essentials. DVDs to trade. Nice touch. Laundry was not expensive, $2(?), must stay w/clothes. Weather did not cooperate. Chilly, rainy. Did not get out walking. Shopping is close, box stores, Walmart, target, Lowe's, etc. our site was long enough for our 33' tt. Had a good picnic table, nice bushes and trees between sites.
