Grapevine Group Campground

Groups are drawn to Grapevine Campground's unique setting and expansive facilities. Its location near Roosevelt Lake's shoreline, nestled in the saguaro cactus-studded Sonoran Desert, together with facilities such as a boat ramp and event area, makes a perfect setting for fishing tournaments, family reunions, and even weddings year-round. In addition to camping, Grapevine provides opportunities for boating, fishing, jet skiing, water skiing, and exploring peaceful coves from non-motorized watercraft. Additional activities include a playground for children, a sports field, and a shoreline trail for hikers and mountain bikers. There are nine group sites, each holding its own number of separate camping units: Coot 14, Goose 15, Grebe 17, Mallard 18, Teal 15, Pintail 18, Egret 14, Heron 15 and Cormorant 12, every unit with a fire ring/grill, picnic table and parking. Each group site includes flush toilets, water hydrants, and shelters with group-sized picnic tables, grills and fire rings. Additional facilities include showers, an event area, and a boat ramp with a platform to assist individuals getting in boats. At an elevation of 2,200 feet, each group site has stunning views of the blue water, the Sierra Ancha mountains, and sunsets against three mountainous wilderness areas. Nearby, the Tonto National Monument cliff dwellings, drives along portions of the Apache Trail Historic Road (State Hwy 88) and the Desert to Tall Pines Scenic Road (State Hwy 288), and the Tonto Basin Visitor Center offer opportunities to enjoy spectacular scenery and learn about the area's pre-history, history, flora, fauna and geology.
