Camps in Phoenix, AZ

Liberty Christian's Summer in the Son is about $125 a week including all lunches and field trips. Must have completed Kindergarten to enroll. Warner@Nichols.

Just signed my son up for Beach Cities Church summer camp. UGSFAW at First Christian is super cheap and tons of fun, too! I'm also going to put my boys in baseball (Lifeletics) and football (Pop Warner) camps this summer.

Grace Lutheran school on McFadden has a great summer rec program. My son went there every summer for 6 years. Safe location. Great staff!

Sce.edu Sign up for my Joyful Parenting class. Monday@Wilshire/ Fullerton College 9 AM -10:50 or 11:00AM - 12:50. I also teach same classes on Thursday in Anaheim@Euclid and Romneya. Same class times. These classes are FREE and Mommy Daddy or Grammy enroll and attend with the child. Child ages 1 1/2- 4 yr. olds. The child is your guest. You do have to provide a snack as our classes are designed like a preschool setting: Art, Music, manipulatives, science, circle time etc. Lots of fun. 6 weeks in the summer from June 29 th till first week in Aug. This program begins again in September through next June every 10 weeks. I hope this helps. Registration for summer session coming up in June. See schedule below:

My Daughter goes to Liberty Christian Summer in the Son too and loves it so much.

Liberty Christian is fabulous for pre school ages through 12 th grade all year round. Their summer program is awesome!!!

http://www.summercamporangecounty.com Town & Country, they also have a separate Pre-School summer camp too.

SCE.edu Also look up Kids College@: www.sce.edu I teach in the Joyful Parenting program on 3 community college campuses. The programs are free or very nominal fees. Plus: CSUFullerton and Fullerton Community College offer kids sport camps in the summer and swim classes as well. Hope this was helpful.

Check out Christopher Creek. Just outside of Payson (1-1/2 hrs from east valley) and you should be able to find a rental that fits what you are looking for. Not sure about swimming in the creek though. EDIT:This seems like what you are looking for....right on the creek, campfires, fishing http://christophercreeklodge.com/

You could go north, or you could also go south towards Tucson. I did a rental (2 bd) on a ranch outside of Elgin about a month ago. 5000 ft elevation, camp fire at night, horses, mountains and places to have fun out doors. It is high desert, not like rim country or flag though. Still really cool landscape. The stars, oh the starts you could see at night, holy cow. There are rentals up near Strawberry and Pine too. Campfire might be a challenge though b/c in some of those areas houses/cabins are too close and the danger from forest fires. There are some places up that way to hike and get in the river (Fossil Springs?) You could also check VRBO or Homeaway for places.

Might want to check out [Lake of the Woods](http://lakeofthewoodsaz.com/) in Pinetop/Lakeside as well as Christopher Creek/Kohl's Ranch. The accomodations are pretty basic, but I went there often as a child, and it's a very easy setup for adults as the cabins are right by the lake for easy fishing, and there are many hiking trails just a short drive (minutes) away in the area. It's a bit further than two hours (it's just outside show low, so it's more like 3-3.5 hours) but a very nice area.

You'll need to check this website for fire restrictions before starting a camp fire. There are already a lot of restrictions on camp fires in the state due to high fire danger, and they always seem to be adding more restrictions as summer progresses and it gets drier. Maybe once the monsoon hits it won't be as restrictive. http://firerestrictions.us/az * *(1) Select a State; (2) Select an Area [Agency]; (3) Select a Unit [Ranger District, Park, Field Office, etc.]

Kroc Center has several programs as well. It's the Salvation Army Community Center around 7 th at and Broadway. Cool facility, lots to do.

AZSC has awesome camps: http://azscience.org/exhibits_activities/camps

Here you go, this clears it up better: http://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/tonto/passes-permits/recreation/?cid=fsbdev3_018751

"The Annual Tonto Discovery Pass or the national interagency pass, are not valid for overnight use at highly developed campgrounds such as Tortilla, Cholla, Windy Hill, Schoolhouse, and Burnt Corral campgrounds. Tonto daily passes are required at these sites."

If you camp in the campground at Lower Burnt Corral, there's a $12 fee payable there. A lot of people also camp in the dispersed area at Upper Burnt Corral but I believe that road is closed right now. It was closed when I went around Christmas. Upper Burnt Corral requires the blue cardboard Tonto Pass. The annual Tonto sticker is NOT sufficient, except for day use. David is right, it is rarely checked but the rules above are correct.

Be sure to check petharbor.com and check it quote frequently since it is constantly being updated as new dogs go in to the shelters

Chucky Othon did u do the petharbor already

If I had the money to ship him back home to north Carolina, I would. He's such a sweet little guy and would live with the rest of my chickens haha. But I can't :( http://youtu.be/KADASqK-SVE

Just googled and found these camps! http://www.bestwildernesscamps.com/best-arizona-wilderness-camps.html

It won't get any cooler than this but it is a Family Camp http://www.gracenorth.com/events/family-camp-2015.html

How far do you want to drive? I know of two sites in the Sierra Anches that are on a creek. Then there is Honeymoon campground on Eagle creek in eastern AZ. Cave Creek near Portal, AZ.

Brandon Edmundson is somewhere near Camp Verde. There is a beautiful green-blue creek.

Near Perkinsville, 492A goes to river w/ a few sites near the river. Water was great after a dusty day. Here's a link w/ photos: https://plus.google.com/photos/101677970851250361785/albums/5750231646002739569?authkey=CKm5 lJK0 stPsfA

I second Lightner Creek. Beautiful campground. Have stayed there many times! They have always sent us a thank you note for staying with them!

We stayed at Alpine Rose RV park last year. Had a nice pool and not too far from Durango. Here's their web site: http://www.alpenroservpark.com/rates.html

Staci Grady or Carrie Harding might be able to help!:)

We loved it here...now at 6, he plays in one of the leagues in Scottsdale. http://thebestinaz.com/

Derek, Payson has a lot of lakes that would work. If you have wheels, Bear Canyon is really nice and not nearly as busy.

Thanks for all the info! I think I'm going to try Willow Springs on Wednesday. Is trolling with small spoons the best for trout?

Lake Mary is hard to fish right now wait till October i was there last week water is pretty warm for those fish

Great. The trickier part of your request is a spot with camping lakeside. I know places with camping close but not quite lakeside. Willow Springs is a favorite for trout, largemouth and smallmouth. There are campgrounds closeby. Knoll Lake is more remote and the camping is very close. You can also camp at any pulllouts on the rim road, which is what I often do. Bear Canyon and Black Canyon, same thing. You can't camp on the lakes but close. In Show Low area, you have Fool Hollow which has campsites walkable to the lake. I fished there for bass yesterday but got skunked. Burnt Corral at Apache is lakeside but it will be hot there for another month or two.
