Rio Grande Village RV Campground — Big Bend National Park
BBNP late March 2026
I booked site 62 for three nights as soon as reservations opened, and a few days later I tried to add a fourth night, but no sites were available. Months later, I found site 74 open, so I added a fourth night in that site. The CG had an awesome host, Paula, who was super friendly, helpful, and the best we’ve ever had the opportunity to meet. She even made sure to call me over to see javelinas on our last night. We rode our e bikes to several areas, crossed the border for lunch, hiked many trails, and drove in the back country. It was an amazing trip. We had some fun international neighbors (two different sets) in the next site for two nights, and then we were sad to have some silly people who ran their generator from 8-8 (yes, I know those are the hours) and they put their generator on the side closest to our site with the exhaust blowing at our site. We had to ask them to move it- which seemed silly since they could have placed their generator at the back of their rig and pointed the exhaust away from both sites. (Don’t be like them-just be considerate.) Then we moved to site 74 and all was well- but the poor guy who was staying in 62 after us had to literally put his chair on the back side of his camper to get away from the noise and exhaust. There is NO cell signal at the CG- but the visitor center has good WiFi. I was able to use satellite texting on my iPhone with no issues.
