Great fishing, great staff and absolutely the cleanest camping experience ever.

This is our second visit to Roper Lake. As last year, the people at the lake were great. Friendly and helpful. The park was clean which is the usual way we find all the state parks! The weather was perfect... Warm in the day and cool at night. Casa Manana in Safford lived up to their reputation with a great meal for all of our group. The only downside was the lake level was down about 6 feet from last year. This meant the little cove we liked to kayak into to watch the birds was no longer accessable. We still kayaked the lake and enjoyed our time on the water. Another successful outing for our club at Roper Lake State Park! Thank you to the lake staff!!

Super quiet, great escape to decompress. Vert spacious back-in sites. Spot 20 in the Cottonwood loop.

Paid a visit for a Sunday picnic and was pleasantly surprised at the upgrades and park cleanliness. Even the spacious dog park was spotless. Looking forward to spending some more time here. Park staff was also friendly and VERY informative.

I absolutely love this lake! It’s the perfect spot to swim, sunbathe, and fully embrace your inner beach bum. The water? Amazing. The vibes? Immaculate. The sun? Ready to give you that golden glow (or a mild sunburn if you forget the sunscreen learn from my mistakes). One of the best parts? The picnic tables everywhere, so you can lounge like royalty and snack on something delicious before or after your swim. Because let’s be real nothing hits quite like a lakeside feast after spending hours in the water. Parking is super affordable at just $10 per car, but heads up they do not accept Discover card. I, unfortunately, found that out the hard way and had a brief moment of financial panic. Bottom line: This lake is a must visit if you’re looking for a perfect place to soak up the sun, splash around, and live your best summer life. 10/10, highly recommend (just bring a Visa or Mastercard, trust me).
