This campground provides access to the stunning views and trails of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. The campground is an easy mile’s walk to the visitor center.
The campsites are smaller than typical for a public campground and many of the sites are not set back much from the road. Thick oak brush and other vegetation makes the sites feel private.
No cell connectivity, extremely limited water (best to bring what you need) and well-maintained vault toilets. We picked out and secured one of the sites with electricity.
It was very quiet while we stayed. Lots of birds, deer and other wildlife.
