GuideConcho lake
Good free camping for a couple of days
This is a small camp ground that was clean when I visited in June. The lake is a reservoir and for my visit, didn’t have water in. There was a small herd
of less than twenty free range cows enjoying the dry lake. There are many prairie dogs that I found amusing to watch scampering in and out of holes. There was a coyote and quite a few birds. Although the site is located near traffic, once inside my RV I could not hear it. I like the fact that some of the sites have cement pads and trash cans. I saw no other amenities, such as a porta potty. The area was windy with trees helping to provide some privacy between each campsite. Great Verizon service. Not much hiking except for walking around the lake. I did see a path located outside the entrance that was good for running or walking along side the road. Most sites I saw had large rocks for a potential camp fire. Great place if you are looking just for a quiet location. The maximum nights allowed is seven days and no permit is allowed.
I am giving it a rating of three because of the location and lack of hiking trails.
There is a community and a general store across the road from the lake.
