Don’t stop here
The place is run by a cantankerous old man who thinks he’s got the Taj Mahal. The place had no bathrooms, no showers and no water although clearly advertised as such. When I balked at the 40$ price for a simple parking spot he became quite belligerent.
A mixed bag, but overall a very nice stay.
We stayed here for two nights in mid-June, 2020...so grateful to have an RV so we can travel during this time of COVID. We came up from Albuquerque to do some hiking in some mountains(cooler). We had great rain both evenings and sat under the awning and just relaxed after a long day on the trails.
The location of this park is its best feature, I have to say. Nestled right against the mountain. Lots of trees and shade. There is a little stream, which is nice to listen to. Our site was on the edge of the stream, but there was a short, steep bank down to the water, so we didn't really spent time at the water. Site 1& 2 appear to have easy access to the stream(in case you've got kids who would like to splash around a little). We had a full service site, and everything worked fine. Water pressure is a smidge low, but not a big deal.
The atmosphere here is pretty laid back. There were overnighters and long term and everything in between. Some tent camping, and then all sizes and ages of RVs. The operators were friendly, although as is the case during these interesting times, we had minimal interaction.
As other reviews I've read have stated, there is a bit of junk around the area. It's mostly corralled into separate areas, but no doubt you will note it and perhaps feel just a little bit like you're camping in a junkyard. This is NOT a pristine campground. It's a bit rustic overall. If you have to drive to any of the sites a little further from the office, just watch out for tree branches. They hang pretty low and haven't been addressed by trimming in awhile.
There is NO cell service. Not a bar to be found. And the wifi (free) is REALLY spotty. I had very minimal luck just checking email. Forget about streaming anything. Just be prepared...it was hardly a major issue for us. But if you need good cellular, you'll have to drive up the road a half mile or so.
Although humble in many ways, we were already discussing our next visit here. So we DO recommend Sierra Village...with some caveats. (Note, we also stayed here one night in September, 2020, with my daughter & SIL. Aside from the drought having dried out the stream, it was again a very nice visit.)
Unacceptable for tent campers!
This was definitely the worst campground we’ve stayed in. We almost just left after paying for our site and seeing the condition of the campground But it was late afternoon and we were tired. The tent camping sites were TINY and separated from each other by “stick fencing” made of tree limbs. There was also a house 20 feet behind us and the owners were very loud until 11:30. Most of the amenities were not available or so filthy that you couldn’t use them. No paper towels or soap in the wash house. No water in the supposed stream that runs thru the park. We didn’t take the time to look at the RV sites so can’t really comment But if you are a tent camper you should look elsewhere.
