Sites are very small and at the end of the campground there is a very sharp turn around.  The campground is very open, no trees, and great for solar.  The plus in this area is the Arkansas River runs along side the campground.  The Arkansas has beautiful clear water and is quite well know for rafting and kayaking.  There is a day use area with boat, kayak launch/takeout.  With all the concrete and gravel it gives you the feeling you are in the desert.  This is the takeout Browns Canyon Run.  Great for fishing and there are several hiking trails in the local area.  There are 23 basic campsites
