Apache-Sitgreaves/Rolfe C Hoyer

Overview

Tucked away at an elevation of over 8,300 feet in the heart of the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest, Rolfe C. Hoyer Campground serves as a premier destination for those seeking a cool mountain retreat. Surrounded by towering ponderosa pines, this facility offers a refreshing escape from the desert heat. It provides an authentic national forest experience while maintaining a level of comfort that makes it one of the most popular campgrounds near the charming village of Greer, Arizona. Visitors can enjoy a serene alpine atmosphere that feels worlds away from the city.

Location & Surroundings

The campground is situated in a picturesque valley along the Little Colorado River, offering immediate access to the natural beauty of the White Mountains. Travelers will appreciate the dense forest canopy that provides ample shade and privacy between sites. The surrounding terrain is characterized by rolling hills, alpine meadows, and the nearby Greer Lakes, which create a perfect environment for morning walks and evening wildlife spotting, with elk and deer frequently wandering through the area.

Amenities & Park Features

While the park emphasizes a rustic connection to nature, it includes several high-quality features that enhance the RV experience. The facility is well-organized and provides essential infrastructure for mountain campers:

  • Paved parking spurs designed to accommodate a variety of RV lengths and setups.
  • Access to coin-operated showers and a dump station, which are rare luxuries for forest service sites.
  • Potable water hydrants and fire rings located at each individual campsite.

While there are no individual utility hookups, the availability of these on-site utilities ensures a comfortable stay for self-contained travelers.

Nearby Attractions & Things to Do

Anglers will find paradise at the nearby reservoirs, specifically Bunch, Tunnel, and River Lakes, which are renowned for excellent trout fishing. For hikers, the West Fork and East Fork trails of the Little Colorado River offer stunning views and moderate challenges. The quaint town of Greer is just a short drive away, offering local dining and boutique shopping for those looking to explore the culture of this high-altitude enclave. The proximity to the Mount Baldy Wilderness also provides endless opportunities for backcountry exploration.

Who This Park Is Best For

This campground is ideal for self-contained RVers who value tranquility and natural beauty over resort-style amenities. It is a perfect fit for families looking to introduce children to the great outdoors and for avid fishers wanting close proximity to stocked lakes. If you prioritize crisp mountain air and starry nights without the distraction of modern technology, this Greer destination will perfectly suit your travel style. It is particularly well-suited for those who enjoy the simplicity of forest camping with the convenience of paved access.

Hosts: Tony & Lisa - Early Sept 2025 Excellent hosts and they gave us a lot of good choices of availability. Restrooms/showers were very clean. Hosts were very receptive and always willing to lend a helping hand. This campground is beautiful and not jammed close to others. Thank you Tony and Lisa! We hope to see you next year. Cheers

This is a beautiful, Forest Service campground. There are no electric or water hookups at individual sites, but there is a clean dump station and potable water available to fill your fresh water tank. There are nicely maintained and clean pit toilets scattered throughout the campground as well as water spigots with good drinking water. The shower facilities are five star, the nicest I have come across at any public or private campground. Each one is privately accessible from outdoors, spacious, with sink, toilet, bench, and ADA accessible. They were very well maintained and clean. The 2025 Greer fire came right to the edge of the campground, but hasn't affected the campground itself.

I was a little nervous about getting a first come first serve campsite coming all the way from Phoenix (you can reserve too, but I didn’t get one in time) but we found a PERFECT site in the Bear loop, even getting in at almost 7 PM on a Friday night! There weren’t a ton of tent campers—lots of RVs so there is generator noise. I wouldn’t call this a super quiet campsite, the spaces are fairly close to each other & it’s right off the road, but I like being able to socialize with neighbors so I didn’t mind that at all. Just something to bear in mind if you prefer really isolated camping. It’s great for glamping, though. Even with vault toilets (which usually gross me out) they were super clean, close to a lot of sites, and you can tell they came by multiple times a day to make sure they were in good condition. There are also 8 real restrooms (4 were out of order though) up front with flushing toilets and private showers really close to the campsite we stayed at which was awesome since I was bringing a friend who had never been camping before. Each campsite has a picnic table and a fire ring. No electric hookups at our site but I don’t know about the RV sites. We brought a propane fire pit since we are on a burn ban. The stars at night were unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. Super friendly and helpful staff too. It’s also really close to downtown Greer (yummy ice cream stand) and some great trails. This is the perfect spot if you just want to get away and into nature, but don’t necessarily like roughing it just for the sake of roughing it lol. Definitely a new favorite for me!! I’ll be back!

camping has a lot to do with your neighbor. The sites in FF are a bit close especially if your neighbor chooses to turn their very loud generator on every morning like clockwork at 7am. Campers come to the mountains to get away from people and noise, be a responsible camper. Leave your loud generator home , or at least wait for other campers to enjoy a quiet morning to drink coffee. come to the mountains for quiet and solitude. Leave the noise home, please This is by far a very clean campground, but when you have to leave early because of the noise, it doesnt matter. Dont pay to far in advance, there are no refunds. if you dont like generators this isn't the cg for you. They go all day especially when it is warm and they want to run ac. There are a few forest rds open for free camping, fr 117 and a county rd just past Greer.

The camp sites were lovely, large sites and not too crowded. Unfortunately they ran out of water while we were there, and when we discovered it and asked were told it’s not uncommon. Also the showers were broken bc apparently a pump broke. The worst part is no one communicated this to the campers, so we were all left to fend for ourselves and figure it out, drive to town for water etc. finally, all the trails were closed due to recent fires. Understandable but again, why didn’t they let us know ahead of time?? We camp solely to go on long daily hikes and to drive 5 hours before learning they were closed is frustrating. When we asked the campers hosts they said they didn’t know. We only learned after driving 30 more minutes to the trailhead. A lot of these issues could be solved with clear communication

We have stayed here twice for several days each time. The staff is absolutely fantastic, no exceptions, all of them. They all went above and beyond, extremely helpful and knowledgeable. The grounds, bathrooms and showers are exceptionally maintained. Beautiful location, would highly recommend this campground. They offer first come and reserved spots. Enjoy!

We stopped here for a night. The lady that checked us in was super friendly. Nice spacious sites. Showers are included, clean. Only complaint was all the flies in the pit toilets.

Very nice campground, vault toilets/facilities were clean and the staff was very friendly. Our trip was a bit wet, but that's camping :) Recommend!

The location of this campsite is all its good for. The reviews about the host harassment is so very true from the beginning they picked on us. If you want a nice family camping trip DO NOT COME HERE. They only cater to old folks that come to read.
