Planned on spending only one night here but due to weather ended up staying for two nights. The campground is in a little town that basically has nothing. The campground owners Leisha and David are super nice and live there. The campground is in great shape. Sites are level and full hook ups with pull through sites were $30. They also had laundry, Wi-Fi, showers and also cabins for rent. Wednesday through Sunday. They also had a food truck that was open from I believe 5 til 8 where they served a bunch of different types of food.
Guide
Clean, quiet, cozy. Stayed 5 nights. You can hear owls and coyotes at night. A great hiking/mountain biking park. Buffaloes are easy to find in the park. There is a prairie dog town close to the camping area. I have knee trouble, and my wife uses a power chair. We still loved our stay.
Traveler
Loved it here! But the listing on here is misleading; it is actually a picnic/rest overlook area that allows car/RV camping but I’m sure no tents. There are no bathrooms or water but very nice picnic tables, trash cans, a grill, and shaded paved areas. Lots of grass and trees, dogs allowed, and a parking lot. We had one neighbor when we stayed one night and the view can’t be beat. Would definitely come back- a few people come and go and it seems to be a hidden gem.
ScoutEvery time I go camping I play four colors because I can't miss the appeal of this game.
ScoutWhat a great find. Small lot, but stunning views of the canyon below and enough room for the low traffic it seems like this sees. Some Verizon signal but only by the fence line.

Guide
This place is wonderful. I came here some years ago with my father, and had to venture out and see it again. Nothing has changed, and that's a great thing. The park was virtually empty in early February, I saw a grand total of five people over my three days here. There were many bison, prarie dogs, and stars. There are loops with full hookups, but most of the primitive tent sites are walk-in, though not far from the parking areas, and all with fantastic views of the canyons & Caprock Escarpment. This park is a hikers dream! Many trails to fuel your desires.
The racoons will get your trash/food if they are able to get to it, even if you are in your campsite. They do not care.
Ranger
This was an overnight stay for our trip from home in East Texas to Utah.
Hookups are 30 or 50 amp. There is water at each site but it was off for season.
Pay at the police station. There is a Dropbox with envelopes. $15 a night.
Location was fine for our 35 foot 5th wheel.
We were disappointed by the amount of trash around the area. Also was a homeless person staying in a tent The person let his dog roam and almost got into fights with our German Shepherd.
If not for the trash and homeless person this could be a good cheap overnight.
GuideWe arrived right before sunset and there was only one other camper there. The views were so pretty and it was flat for car camping. There were a few cars that came in the middle of the night and then left, but we were there on the weekend with meteor showers so I assumed it was people stargazing. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because there’s no bathroom, but it was a great spot!
TravelerWe were able to find an opening for 1 night at the honey flat campground, and enjoyed the solitude, scenery and wild life. Had 30 Amp hookup with water. Dumpstation and bath facilities. The sites were good size with fire rings and shaded picnic tables. Need to be aware of texas wild life. Many hiking trails and staff at the information center were nice and helpful. Need to plan trip far in advance as sites fill up quick if you plan on staying for awhile.
Scout
Full hook ups no facilities but good price for overnight passing through.
Guide
I arrived at 4pm 2 other trailers were here and hooked up but no one was here . Very quiet. They have 20,30and 50 electric hook ups . Dump and flush water.b6
ScoutGreat space to relax. I love this place.
weaver game is a game that challenges players when they try to figure out a five-letter word with only a few guesses
GuideFree little stop with hook ups. Sites are pull through. Accommodate about 4 medium trailers. Water and electric on site with dump station on edge of park. Near a quiet lower traffic highway.
I was only one here Saturday. Nobody around. No bathrooms nearby, gas station looks almost abandoned. Very rural area.
TravelerThis place has the most amazing views! I was the only one there for the one night. The weather was great, but then the wind picked up big time at night. Maybe it was just that day, though. I had a rooftop tent that was just blowing around and was really loud which made it hard to get any sleep. If you have a small travel trailer, that would be better.
TravelerI was on a trip from East Texas to Colorado and back in my Overland Ford Maverick and needed one last camping spot to carry me over on the trip back to East Texas and found this little gem of a spot!
It's not the most accommodating for those who aren't prepared (no bathrooms or showers), but the most beautiful things are usually quite basic. I had terrible weather, so I couldn't really put out the Roofnest, but I slept in the truck as best I could.
The view when I woke up was dazzling! This spot would be amazing for a family in an RV.
Management is super nice and they were inviting to someone without an RV, so major kuddoes!
Traveler
We've probably spent a few weeks camping at Merus over the last couple years. The improvements during that time have been amazing...and are still coming! We love the views from the boondocking sites on the rim as well as the peace of the more remote campsites down in the canyon. The team that runs Merus bends over backwards to make each stay special.
ScoutI stayed last night and had no problems except for one of the #vanlife dudes emptied his chemical toilet into the parking lot and it ran down the parking lot to where I was setting up my stuff. I plead with him to stop dumping because he was dumping for like 10 minutes. People like him are going to get these places removed.
The sleep was great. I slept most of the night in my hammock connected to the back of my truck. Bring some bug spray the mosquitoes are pretty bad.
Had wonderful stars and a beautiful sunrise.
GuideRecommend reservations if you want a electric hookup! Sites are are spaced so you can hardly see neighbors. Buffalo walk right thru the camping sites.
GuideI got here around 9 pm expecting the place to be full but I was the only one there. No bathroom, two picnic tables. Beautiful sunset coming in from I-40, woke up to a gorgeous sunrise over the canyon. It was very windy, which kept me up. Could hear a couple of cars passing by the road below, only one car came in when I was there around 2:30 am and they left shortly after.
LegendWe stayed one night on our road but the park is worth to stay longer. You also camp with bisons and prairie dogs.
Traveler
First evening came it as it got dark. Pretty easy to navigate the site by moonlight and get set up. However, Bison roam through the area and aside from hoofprints they will leave reminders of their presence. There is plenty of room between campsites/ neighbors and during our stay all visitors were pleasant, and courteous. Our first night encounter was hearing what may have been a mountain lion and purred what seemed to be right next to our tent. During the night it had bedded down in our vicinity and had moved on by morning. 2nd night you could hear the bison moving around the campsites. Easy access to trails for hikes. Beautiful skies and amazing views throughout the canyon.
ScoutThank you to the city of Floydada for provider such a nice site. Free pullin site, with electricity and water.
RangerI think that Caprock Canyons State Park is underrated, which is great for the people who visit. We'll definitely be back.
The campground is well maintained and easy to navigate. The views aren't as spectacular as they are at campgrounds in Palo Duro Canyon but BISON COME TO VISIT. Of course, to stay safe this often requires an exercise of patience. We were caught behind a heard of 12 or so on a hiking trail and maintaining a safe distance required a very leisurely pace, with lots of time to just take in the landscape. And we had to stand around and wait for another group to graze their way past our trailer on another occasion. But it was easy to keep our distance and they don't stay in one place long, so you just have to give them a few minutes. It was really neat to see these creatures roaming free--I thought it was a lot more exciting than seeing the herds in Yellowstone because there aren't the crowds of tourists.
Ranger
Five spots and four were occupied the day we stopped. Excellent areas to walk, paved sidewalks and a pond. Playground and pool in the summer. Sand burs in the grass.
Traveler
A little complicated in terms of finding a place for camping if you have rooftops tents.
The designated tent places they have you have to walk into. Unless you want to be by all the RVs, which we don’t like. They have an overflow camping space, which was perfect for us. The place is very nice and has great views. We got visited by Bison at night and early this morning. Lots of coyotes howling at night and beautiful skies.
