Desert camping nestled in the mountains
Arrived late at night around 11:30 pm to find many sites available. Campground was spacious and surrounded by foliage and shrubs to provide a sense of privacy and seclusion. I would camp here again!

Nicely spaced campsites
Rather larger parcels for individual camping and rv sites. definitely not on top of your neighbors. I’m picky when it comes to sites and privacy so trust me you’ll enjoy this. It’s right off hwy 74 so you hear cars but it’s not bad. Great views from everywhere, find a spot with trees so you can have some extra shade! I’m quite impressed with the fire pits other than the fact they’re fairly shallow. They have this really cool grill grate that you can raise and lower over one side of the fire. There’s a faucet at each campsite I believe, at least at site 19 and several others I walked by.
