Jerome State Historic Park RV & Campground Guide

Located just 10 miles from Jerome State Historic Park, the Dead Horse Ranch State Park campground makes a great base of operations. With more than 100 oversized sites, this campground is ideal for small travel trailers as well as big rigs up to 65 feet long. Each site comes with water and 30-amp and 50-amp electric service, so it's easy to stay comfortable. Plus, with multiple bathrooms and hot showers scattered throughout the campground, this is a great option for families or big groups. Keep in mind that generators are prohibited. Prices for RV sites start at $30 per night, and it's crucial to reserve in advance if you're coming in the fall or spring since the campground usually sells out. If you want to save a bit of money, you can choose a $20 site without hookups.

Camp in the shade of the pines at Potato Patch Campground, which is located in the Prescott National Forest about 9 miles from the park. With its cool breezes and ample shade, this campground is a popular option; it's a good idea to reserve in advance. Potato Patch has just 12 RV sites, each with electric hookups and space for RVs up to 40 feet long. Keep in mind that there's water nearby, but the supply isn't adequate to fill the tanks in your RV, so be sure to fill up before you come. Are all the RV sites full? You can also camp in the campground's 28 non-electric sites. RV sites at Potato Patch are $18 per night while the other sites are just $14 per night. Feel free to bring your dog as long as it remains on a leash, and bring wood to build a campfire in your site's fire pit.
