Honeymoon Campground is a Forest Service campground in the Clifton Ranger District of the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests in eastern Arizona. It sits within the national forest's boundaries, and the nearest town is Clifton. The campground is not reservable, so plan on arriving and securing a spot on site rather than booking in advance. That makes it a good choice for spontaneous trips or for visitors who prefer to choose a campsite after they arrive. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 77°F and October highs around 72°F, while July and August average highs near 89°F and bring the most wet days of the year. Several trails start close by. Squirrel Canyon is just 0.1 mile away, and Robinson Mesa and Coyote are both within about a mile. Warren Canyon lies roughly 2.9 miles off.
