Facilities:
I am really excited that we're going to be staying at Dairy Springs. Its nestled in cool groves of ponderosa pines and white firs. Its a really beautiful campsite, and to tell you the truth the moment Scott and I saw it we knew it was the perfect site for this year's Retreat.
As far as amenities...the campsite has toilets, nice picnic tables, fire rings with park benches around them, grills, and potable (drinking) water. The campsite DOES NOT have showers!
RVs and Tent Trailers
RVs and tent trailers are allowed at Dairy Springs, but please let me know if you are planning on bringing one up so we can plan accordingly. There is a 40 ft limit on trailers or RVs. Hookups are NOT available. However, a dump station is available at the Pinegrove campsite about 7 miles away.
Access
Maps: There are a number of ways to get to Dairy Springs Campground. If you prefer to stay on pavement, here is a good route to take.... Here are directions for this route provided by Google Maps. If that map is confusing here's a simplier one from the forest service.
Driving Directions: From Phoenix take I-17 north towards Flagstaff. Exit onto the Lake Mary Road exit No. 339, which is on the south side of Flagstaff just before the I40 interchange. Go southeast on Lake Mary Road (Forest Road 3) for about 20 miles to Forest Road 90. Turn right onto FR90 and go west and south about 4 miles around the west side of Mormon Lake to the campground. Look for a sign for Dairy Springs Campground, which is on the west side of the road. Turn into the campground and look for the group areas. Proceed to Sites A and B of the group area.
