Good campsite with all the features

This was a good campsite with excellent cell and wifi. Each campsite has water/sink, electric (2-110v and 2-220v), table and fire ring but no shade anywhere, none, and it gets hot until 7pm or so. Some campsites like 5, 8 and 10 are very level but others less so. The showers and toilets are centrally located and well maintained. Firewood was at the site and also available for purchase at $1 per stick on the honor system ie Venmo, Paypal etc. Sites 8,9,10 while closer together than I prefer (but not like at a National Park eg Rio Grande in Big Bend) have an excellent unobstructed dawn view

Great spot to stay!

Very pretty location, no cell service but okay wifi. Only wish would be more guidance on where we could or couldn’t walk from the campground. Also it’s hot, sunny, and windy so be prepared!

Amazing Campground !! Great Views !! Great Location !!

Best campground ever !! It is located right outside Big Bend State Park. Very scenic route with beautiful mountains.. Stores are located a short drive away..

Campground is well laid out. Comfortable distance between each site.

Each site offers electric hook up, water (with its own sink) BBQ pit, picnic table and burn fire pit. Free wifi included !!!

Flushable toilets and hot showers !! Casey kept these spotless !!

David has one thing in mind and that is to keep you very comfortable !! To enjoy your time and relax !! We arrived one day early and David made room for us for that night ! (Free) We greatly appreciated that !!

I can not express how great this place is !! I would give them a 10 star ! I highly recommend this campground..

We will definitely be back !!

Thank you David and Casey for making our stay a memorable one :)

Quiet, remote, with the perfect amenities

Great campground! It’s almost at the end of a dirt road so it’s super quiet and there’s no cell service but great WiFi! Campsites are set decently far apart. You have really cool trails to check out. Clean bathrooms. Indoor and outdoor hot showers. And even your very own pterodactyl on the hill the flaps every hour! Dave is such a great host too if you catch him there… he’s full of all the history of the area! 10 out of 10 I’d recommend! And it was only $10 a night!
