Beautiful, but noisy

The campground views are really pretty, and it's next to the Boulder River, which is lovely. If you have a Razor, it's a cool place. There are pit toilets, no potable water, and it's pack it in/pack it out. Cell service (we have Verizon) is sketchy. A lot of campers were running generators, and it's right next to hwy 15. If you're looking for peace & quiet, this campground might not be for you. There are 9 sites.

Nice convenient camp grounds

My 1st time here. Read the reviews and its pretty much what everyone says. FYI there are no showers or drinking water. The Boulder river is right on the edge so you can get water there or from a stream at the western end of the park. I was able to get 5g service here... Depends on where in the camp grounds you're located. Bring your own toilet paper... But that should be a given. 10 parking spots with fire rings and picnic benches. If you are into rough camping then keep driving up the first road past the camp grounds and there are plenty of spots to camp out.

Didn’t stay but looked nice!

I planned to stay here but upon arriving, I only had 1 bar of 4G via ATT so had to relocate so I could work. The sites were clean, along the river and had a table & fire ring. I arrived around 2pm on a Sunday and 4 spots were taken. I imagine this place gets very busy on the weekends. The major drawback is how close it is to the interstate but it’s free! Vault toilet onsite. No other services.
