Mesquite Campground — Palo Duro Canyon State Park
Reviewed Jun. 6, 2022

Amazing

An oasis in desolate west Texas. Amazing views and world class hiking and mountain biking. The Trading Post has food (burgers, fries and ice cream) and souvenirs as well as basic camping gear and supplies in case you forgot something. This is the home to the Texas outdoor musical if your into that sort of thing. Due to the low humidity you’ll find some of the best star gazing in the world here. It does get hot in the summer so bring plenty of water and sunscreen but it cools off nicely after the sun goes down. As of the time of this review it was 101 degrees for a high with a low of 65 tonight. Th RV campsites are water and electric only. If you RV camp at Mesquite or Juniper campground be aware that it is a looooong way to the dump stations if you’re using a portable dump tank. Overall, this is possibly the best state park in Texas. You’ll find plenty of attractions nearby like Cadillac Ranch and the Big Texan in Amarillo. We absolutely love this campground and highly recommend it all year-round!
