Lake Alice Campground — Sugarite Canyon State Park

Small campground near CO border. Perks would be lake at top of mountain, 5-7 min drive from CG and showers, at entrance to park. Downfall is you need to drive to everything unless you want to walk along trails on the other side of road. Trails in park were nice - t-mobile service did not work at all, zero bars. Bear boxes provided, deer walked through campground often. I did see bear tracks while hiking but host said they’ve never been a human issue.

2022 headed home from CO to Dallas and didn't want to stay in Amarillo again so we threw the dice and were able to snag an AMAZING spot (no hookups) for one night. Tha-t was all we needed to make this our go-to place to stop at beginning and end of each trip.  Lots of options for camping (we pull a TAB 400) - camp host was so cool and friendly. Absolutely beautiful views and clean facilities (we only used the toilets)  We were surprised and pleased with Sugarite!

They are a first come first serve RV site, which luckily when we showed up there was only 1 other RV parked. We picked a secluded back corner spot which was 1 of 2 full hookup sites (electric & water, no sewer). The dump station was unavailable due to a broken drain, and there were only porta-potty style bathrooms on the campground. The showers were down the road a bit, amd were your typical state park showers - hot water, no amenities which is totally fine. There are bear boxes on each site which was good to have in that area! We hiked the old coal mining camp on the side of the canyon and the woods behind our site which was a lot of fun!
