Description

This secluded concessionaire-operated forest camp offers easy access to two features of high visitor interest. The first is Knoll Lake, a medium-sized body of water tucked away in a picturesque setting. People come here to fish for trout and tour the lake in small boats.The second feature of interest near this campground is the spectacular Mogollon Rim, a two thousand foot escarpment that marks the southern edge of the Colorado Plateau. This picturesque plunge from cool highlands to low deserts extends across most of Arizona. The area around Knoll Lake, however, is the home of some of the Rim's most magnificent views. It provides a scenic setting for hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding or just sitting back and enjoying the panorama.

Small and charming campground alongside tiny Knoll Lake, up in the cool Mogollon Rim forest. Good for fish-camping, no motor boats allowed. Forest setting, water provided, as well as tables, firepits and BBQ's, etc.
