Alamo Lake State Park sits in the Bill Williams River Valley of western Arizona, centered on a flood control and recreation reservoir. Visitors come for bass fishing, boating, and quiet time away from town. The surrounding mountains, brush, wildflowers, and cacti make the scenery appealing, and eagles, foxes, coyotes, mule deer, and wild burros are often seen. Eight log cabins overlook the water, and the remote location makes the night sky especially dark for stargazing.
