Great free spot for any size rig.
As others have said, it's a large gravel parking area. Trash bin was nice touch. Nice enough view. Verizon via Visible rocked strong at 4, AT&T via Straight Talk bounced between 2-3. This was our 1st dry camp with the new set up, and was perfect for that purpose. Easy in/out, any size rig fits and there was plenty of room to spread out. Even arriving at 3pm on a Friday, there were only 5 others here, and we scored a spot on the rail with a view of the sunset. Saturday morning there were 12 rigs here including us, and most pulled out by 11am, leaving only us & 3 others till nightfall. Some road noise, but nothing unbearable. Did have some winds,, but again nothing unbearable. Walmart, Albertsons, Lowes, Tractor Supply all just a short drive up in Carlsbad. Diesel prices are consistent all over so we topped off at Marathon in White's City, rather than going back to town. All in all a good stop over. We stayed 4nts to do both parks & resupply. DH enjoyed it.... I may have made a believer out of him finally.
2/18/22: 652 is a mess. While a shorter distance than how our GPS wanted to go, there were 5 areas where it was 1 lane & we had to wait for it to be our directions turn... while shorter, it took just as long. Luckily it isn't very traveled or it could have taken a lot longer.
