Banjo Bill Picnic Area provides day-use access to Oak Creek with 12 picnic sites featuring cooking grills, restrooms, and picnic tables positioned along the water for easy creek access.

Located on paved US-89A between Flagstaff and Sedona, the area is open 8am to dusk and requires a $5 Red Rock Pass or America the Beautiful Pass; note that potable water is not available at this site.

The area is popular for fishing, swimming, and water play in Oak Creek's clear pools, though it can be busy during peak seasons.
