Located in the high prairie of Northern Arizona, the park provides outstanding views of the San Francisco Peaks, and the sun rises and sunsets can be truly awe-inspiring. There is a playground and lots of wide-open spaces for kids to burn off energy, and many of our guests enjoy hiking Old Route 66, which borders the park. In addition, guests receive discount coupons to visit Meteor Crater, which is just five miles up the road.
Meteor Crater RV Park is central to many of Northern Arizona's most popular tourist attractions, and makes an excellent base for taking several scenic day trips. Flagstaff, with its many activities and amenities is just a short 35 minute drive away. The Grand Canyon, Petrified Forest, Sedona, Walnut Canyon, and Sunset Crater are all within an hour or two of the park. A video describing those day trips is available upon request.
