"It's such a unique park - you don't get to walk around miles of sandunes every day! The amenities were fine, the stars were amazing, and it was a nice quiet evening."
ScoutNot a bad park, the drought really took a toll on the river. It’s clean and has really good hiking trails. But, be careful with pets due to the sand burrs, they will do a number on their paws. Plus, a lot of black and red ants and biting flies. Maybe the best time is late fall or even winter. We stayed in the River Road area. Restroom and showers were clean.
GuideI have fallen in love with Roman Nose. It quickly became one of my favorite tent camping spots. There are RV spots, cabins and a few teepees to choose from as well as an array of tent camping spots to choose from. The little store has EVERYTHING you could think of including firewood so no worries, if you have forgotten something they have your back! The creek is fantastic for a dip and if you’re a polar bear it is ice cold even in August. Lots of trails for hiking, a little pond to fish in. I was even able to hit a garage sale on one trip! If you’re looking for a pool they have that too!! The showers and potties are top notch. If you are an equestrian, they can accommodate you too.
GuideIt was so quiet. Clean, nice level paved RV parking spots. Beautiful views. Great hiking trails.
GuideGood campground that had everything we needed. Didnt blow my mind or anything (trailer camping). Cool caverns and cool hiking trails. I wish i could have done the camping in a cave but we were too early! I also dodged a tornado here lol

LegendThis is our second time staying here and it’s always so peaceful and quiet. Several spots are butted up right against the river with lots of shade trees. There are 30 and 50 amp spots and all the spots have water. There are plenty of tent camping spots as well. Showers and flushing toilets and a playground are nearby. Great hiking and great birdwatching. You do have to make reservations online or go to the Ranger station to pay.
