About this place
Added by Ross Kyker
The charm of Prescott and the beauty of one of the only granite surrounded lakes you'll find in Arizona! The unique granite formations provide a playground for rock climbers, campers and photographers!
Camping sites are only available in the summer months but the park is explorable year round! Watson Lake is a very unique place, in a state primarily made up of sandstone lies a lake surrounded by uniquely shaped Granite Boulders, excellent for hiking, rock climbing and photographing! Be sure to find a good place to sit and watch some of the most vibrant sunsets in the nation!
The park includes:
- Two boat launches
- Canoes and Kayaks available for rent
- Fish Cleaning Stations
- Picnic Areas with grills
- Restrooms
- Playground
- Hiking Trails
- Showers for campers
