Great camping experience!
Excellent campground. Quiet and out of the way. Good privacy and clean and well kept facilities. It’s in an out of the way location which is one of the things we love about it but may not be everyone’s cup of tea. We very much enjoyed our stay there.
Nice State Park
First trip to this campground and we really liked it. Price was reasonable for electricity and water. Dump station nearby. We have bigger RV so some of the spots would not work. Make sure you use the filter to eliminate those with a smaller driveway. The restrooms were clean with nice showers. This campground is 40 miles or so from the interstate so make sure you are well provisioned before you arrive.
A beautiful surprise in the desert!
Caution: Save yourself some time, dust and frustration and enter Smoky Mountain Campground into your GPS and not Castle Rock State Park like we did. Haha.
We were so surprised when we got to this campground. Private sites. Clean. Paved, not gravel. Not the most level we’ve been in but totally workable.
Bathrooms were clean. Toliets are on one side of the building and individual shower rooms on the other. All handicapped accessible and plenty of places to put you stuff so it stays dry.
Also, DARK Skies!!! A star gazer’s dream.
Be sure you have gas before Sunday rolls around because the one station around is closed on Sunday. The next closest one is 1 hr away. Speaking of, the Tracys General Store in Almo is really nice. Gas, Cafe (even offered a vegan burger!) and other general supplies. Rock City Pizza, just down the way, also has groceries.
We got caught in 3 different local cattle drives on the roads. It was so cool to watch real cowboys at work. Oh, and I even saw a jack rabbit! They are a hoot!
