White Rock Campground, Nogales, AZ 85621
Fall weekends draw lake anglers targeting rainbow trout, crappie, and bass, all catch-and-release due to mercury rules. Sites 1–6 on the hillside get the best canyon views, and sites 9 and 10 handle trailers up to 27 feet comfortably. At $15 a night, the trade-off is real but fai

<p><img alt="White Rock Campground" src="http://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_MEDIA/fseprd767421.jpg" title="White Rock Campground" /></p><p>A short distance from Peña Blanca Lake, White Rock is not large, so it is usually quick to fill. That’s especially true during the hot days of summer -- the peak season for the lake and the campground.</p><p>Campsites at White Rock are located on the banks of Peña Blanca Creek in the shadow of a rocky cliff that gives the area its name. A portion of the rock actually splits the campground into two sections. Thirteen campsites make up Upper White Rock and are accessible off Forest Road 39. Two others make up Lower White Rock and are accessible off the road that leads to the lake.</p>
<p>Facilities at the lake include a paved boat ramp, a couple of picnic areas, a fishing dock and a trail that leads most of the way around the lake. Nearby lake, fishing, boating, hiking trails in area, and scenic setting. No RV hook-ups. Maximum length advisable is 22 ft. Tables and fire grills. Firewood is not available. Bring your own wood or charcoal or a camp stove for cooking.</p>

Fall brings the most comfortable conditions. Daytime highs typically run 60–80°F with mornings in the 40s–50s. The oaks turn golden, and wildlife activity picks up. Lake fishing and boating stay pleasant into October before temperatures drop. Crowds thin out on weekdays and shoulder weekends compared to summer. Winter mornings can frost over, and summer heat hits hard in exposed sites despite the elevation. Check Coronado National Forest notices before heading out.
