Moqui Group Campground

The Moqui Group Campground sits in a beautiful setting surrounded by ponderosa, oak, and aspen at an elevation of 6,915 feet. The campground consists of three individual group sites: Simmons, Spooner, and Ernst. Each site can accommodate up to 50 people, offering picnic tables, fire rings, grills, vault toilets, trash collection, and piped drinking water, and for groups larger than 50 people multiple sites can be reserved. Simmons and Spooner can each accommodate a maximum of three trailers or RVs up to 22 feet; the Ernst site is best suited for tents and smaller equipment. Many visitors spend time relaxing and exploring the area. The nearby C.C. Cragin Reservoir and Knoll Lake offer opportunities for water based recreation, while the Arizona National Scenic Trail, General Crook National Recreation Trail, and historic Cabin Loop Trail System offer opportunities for hikers, bicyclists, and equestrian users. There are also several fire lookout towers in the area. The campground is in a forested setting near the Mogollon Rim, one of the most striking geologic features in the state. This steep escarpment, measured in thousands of feet, stretches from New Mexico diagonally across two thirds of Arizona and offers sweeping views of the landscape. The community of Happy Jack, Arizona has a gas station, two convenience stores and two restaurants.
