Roper Lake State Park, State park in Safford, Arizona.
Roper Lake State Park spreads across southeastern Arizona at the base of Mount Graham, featuring a lake, three campgrounds, and numerous hiking trails.
The Arizona State Parks system established Roper Lake State Park in 1972, creating a recreational area within the Madrean Archipelago region.
Multiple bird watching spots around the lake attract naturalists who document the behaviors of native species like Gambel's quail and great horned owls.
The park provides twenty campsites with water and electric hookups at Hacienda Campground, while Cottonwood Campground offers twenty-five additional developed sites.
Natural thermal springs feed into a swimming area, maintaining constant warm water temperatures throughout all seasons.
