Location Information
Upper Tonto Creek is located at the confluence of Tonto Creek and Horton Creeks close to Payson on the northern edge of the campground. There is fishing available in both creeks and is quite a popular spot for it. The area is generally covered with Pine trees and the elevation makes it a nice getaway from the heat of the desert. The campsite comes equipped with picnic tables, grills, drinking water and vault toilets.
