## Overview

Located in the scenic Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest in north central
Arizona near the town of Heber, Canyon Point has a range of individual and
group campsites to suit many visitors.  
  
The campground sits in a heavily wooded pine and aspen area 5 miles from the
popular Willow Springs Lake. Campers enjoy trout fishing (both lake and
stream), hiking, boating and photography.

## Recreation

Hikers enjoy staying at Canyon Point because of its access to trails to the
Sinkhole and the edge of the Mogollon Rim, which offers a spectacular view.  
  
Its proximity to Willow Springs Lake also draws boaters and anglers. Families
who stay on the weekends often attend educational programs given by Forest
Service rangers at the facility's amphitheater.

## Facilities

Canyon Point has 113 campsites, 32 of which have electricity. Tents, trailers
and motor homes up to 75 ft. are allowed at the campground. Three of the
single unit sites are accessible.  
  
Larger families can be accommodated at the five double sites which can hold up
to 16 people each, and there are two group sites that can host up to 25 or 55
people, respectively. Each site has a picnic table and campfire ring with
grill.  
  
Showers and restrooms are provided, and firewood is available for sale.

## Natural Features

Canyon Point lies in a forested area above the Mogollon Rim at an elevation of

long escarpment in northern Arizona that ranges between 5,000 and 7,000 ft in
elevation. The unique landscape was created by the uplift of the Colorado
Plateau followed by erosion and faulting that has sculpted spectacular canyons
and buttes. The rim serves as the geographical divide between the cool high
country above and the hot, dry desert below. Summer daytime temperatures are
generally 20 - 40 degrees cooler than the greater Phoenix Area. However, the
rainy season often brings afternoon thunderstorms from late June through
August. Visitors should come prepared for possible rain and cool nighttime
temperatures.
