So the good first,
Quiet, not many ppl in the fall/winter months. Sites are large, dumpsters, vault toilets, close to town amenities. We felt safe staying here. Met nice campers.
The crappy.
Yes you can hear the humm of the freeway from further away. Didn’t bug us, but some it does.
There is micro trash everywhere.
No one cleans the sites, leaves are outta control on the ground.
You cannot have any cooking or fires right now. Only cooking inside.
The single bathroom is cleanest.
The Ranger was super rude
He asked way too many personal questions and kept wanting to make sure we weren’t “homeless”. He doesn’t understand the difference between vagrants and choosing to not live in bricks and sticks. He wanted to know exactly how many days we were staying and what day and time we were leaving. You can stay up to 14days and no reservations required.
It is only free if you have your America The Beautiful Pass, otherwise it’s 5.00 a night And you have to buy that at the Shell Gas Station down the pass.
