Stayed for 3 nights and each night was very peaceful. Once you’re about 2 miles down the dirt road, that’s when a lot of the sites begin. All sites were very large and loved that they were very well spaced so you weren’t close to neighbors. Definitely a fun area if you have toys for OHV. lots of cows roaming around and chipmunks. Didn’t see much wildlife. Completely dry camping so pack it in and pack it out. There are plenty of trash cans and a potable water spigot at the rest stop 15 min away so no reason to leave trash behind! Amazing stars and sunsets!
This area isn’t much of a campground and you wouldn’t want to spend an extensive amount of time at but I stayed here for two nights while breaking up a long trip. I was the only one here during the two evenings during the weekday. Did have some day visitors fishing in the late afternoon and evenings but everyone is always packed up for sunset. There’s not much to do in the area other than fish. There is a pit toilet if needed and had great AT&T cell service. Would recommend this for a night or two at a time
You’re allowed to stay here for three days in a 30 day period. It does require a Washington park pass and there is a camp post that comes around multiple times during the day to check everyone’s and make sure they are not extending their stay past the limit. There are multiple vault toilets which were clean and well stocked and everyone was respectful. There’s a total of 24 campsites spread out across to loops. Sites 19 and 20 are the sunniest for those that need some work. You’re about 15 to 20 minutes from Spokane but it still feels secluded. I had 2 to 3 bars of AT&T service and was able to work for the couple of days. camp hosts were friendly!
Decided to stay here for 5 nights & all were enjoyable. During the week, it’s very quiet. Around Thursday evening, Friday morning, it fills up more but there’s about 50 sites and still had some free while I was there. You can walk to the beach access from the campground. Lots of people mentioned overgrown areas and the host was clearing the picnic table areas during my stay. Each site has a table and fire ring. There’s also several vault toilets and dumpsters scattered throughout the campground. My site was really open and gave me great sunlight for my solar. Also, keep everything locked up at all times. Black bears are active in this area and saw one during the afternoon in the field behind the few station. $20/night during the main season. There’s potable water stations in each loop. Be sure to visit Morrell Falls hike (about 25 min away) and Holland Lake on a warm day, both beautiful! Also had 2-3 bars of 5G AT&T service and was able to work just fine.
Closed for the 2022 season
Fantastic campground off the map. You’re right between two hot springs so very easy access to visit. There’s a clean vault toilet & front row access to a beautiful river. It is right along the road so you do hear some road noise but very quiet at night time. There’s 7 campsites ranging in size. No cell service for any carrier. Met some awesome people here and would definitely visit again! Arrived on a Sunday afternoon to find 5 open spots. First come first serve & free. Not a lot of solar site options if needing, may not be the best spot.
I was here about a year ago and enjoyed my stay so much, I came back for another week. Arrived on Sunday afternoon with plenty of spots to pick from. My favorite is the very last loop before the Marina. I was able to snag a waterfront spot & had easy access to paddle board. Vault toilets were cleaned and restocked 3 times during my stay. Friday by mid-day, most of the spots are taken. The weekends aren’t as enjoyable because there’s always a group that is disruptive and respectful of quiet hours or the people camping next to them. Overall, definitely would recommend this place if you’re in the area. Only 50 min from helena to restock on all supplies. Little store next door at the marina you can access too!
I arrived on a Sunday evening and there were still plenty of areas to call home. During my seven nights, it was a great stay! Only a few people stayed the entire time I was there and many of them were just one night campers. There are a couple spots that have fire rings and picnic tables but anywhere that allows driving is fair game. There were two clean valult toilets and a host that would drive around every morning to make sure you don’t stay longer than then 10 day limit. There is a boat launch near the bathrooms so there’s a lot of traffic during the day and on the weekends. While I was disappointed I did not see any moose during my weeklong stay, there was an abundance of prairie dogs. Also, almost every camper that came through here had a dog and I believe most of them were off leash and well behaved but if you are not a dog person or do not have a dog that enjoys other dogs, I would rethink before coming here because it is very likely dogs will be running around off leash. Great spot it you have a boat or kayak. Only 15 minutes to Driggs to stock up on supplies. Great AT&T service. If you were coming from drags, do not follow Google map instructions. Continue down the road until you hit 6000 and turn right. If you follow the Google map to turn on the first road, it is extremely rutted and unless you have a very high clearance, likely will damage something.
Looks like the day area is just closed but there are two gates open leading into the campground and othered were there while I was. Only stayed for a night but it was peaceful. Sites are small and not much privacy now with the burnt vegetation. Vault toilets were clean and has a trash dumpster. Definitely hear highway noise so I wouldn’t recommend for rent campers as it gets pretty loud at times. Had great AT&T cell service to work remotely. I’d say again but not sure it’s worth a weeks stay at $10/night.
All of the campsites (free & paid) are packed the closer to Moab you get so this spot was fantastic. Both national parks are within 45 minutes. This is dispersed camping so no amenities but it was very peaceful the 3 nights I stayed. There’s ample sites to pick from, rock rings at existing sites. Fantastic cell service and beautiful sunsets. I saw a fox running around one evening during sunset so don’t leave out food or trash at night. If there’s a chance of rain, be prepared with 4x4 as it gets very muddy very quickly.
Stayed here during memorial day weekend and wasn’t sure if I would find a spot but upon arriving around 7 PM, there were several spots available and if you keep driving down the dirt road, you can find many other dispersed sites to stay at. Even though it was quite busy with large groups, around 10 PM, everyone settled down and it was a quiet peaceful night. Beautiful views and plenty of areas to walk around. About 15 minutes from Capitol Reef National Park. Free and clean vault toilets.
I was hesitant staying here because it was during memorial day weekend and I figured it would be very packed but when I arrive Thursday evening, there were only two other campers there. By the end of the night, I believe they were total of five of us. Great phone service and super close to town. The vault toilets were clean but other than that, no amenities. It’s not much of a destination camping spot but does well for another two. The sites are side-by-side Pullins which I believe they were about 10, maybe 15 of them. Could be very loud when there are multiple campers.
I pulled in here around 8 PM on a Tuesday and had intentions to stay for multiple nights. Upon waking up the following morning, I was surrounded by 8 to 10 inches of snow and unfortunately had to leave since I wasn’t prepared for it. For the night that I stayed, it was extremely quiet and there were probably 5 to 6 other campers I passed long away. There are pit toilets by the trail head if needed and an abundance of camping spots. I had decent AT&T service in the location I was at. Definitely would recommend visiting brown dog coffee in Salida. The roads to get extremely muddy whenever there is rain or snow so be prepared to have four-wheel-drive or chains on your tires if you’ll be there during storms or snow.
This place is very quiet and I enjoyed my two nights I stayed here. It is $16 a night and you can pay via cash or they have cards… Well. The upper lot is first come first serve and the lower lot is reasonable. Both of them have really good views and both areas can be windy. The showers were still closed at the end of May during my stay they’re open. There are trash cans as well as clean restrooms. I enjoyed this place so much because of the lack of campers. During the summer, I imagine it fills up and due to the nature of the campsites only having feet between them, it would not be an enjoyable experience when busy. There are some really nice hiking trails in the area and you are pretty close to Black Canyon national Park as well. I had enough AT&T service to work pretty seamlessly in the top loop. As others said, all asphalt and no trees.
The area I planned on staying out was very busy so I found this place in a pinch. It was a very quiet area next to a nice park. I ended up staying two evenings and I was the only person there for the first night and during the second night of a couple other campers arrived. The bathrooms were clean and they are trash cans located throughout. It’s not very big and I wouldn’t recommend it for a long-term stay but for a couple of nights it works great.
Stayed during the winter so it was only me and another camper but it sure was pretty! There’s 6 electrical sites and the rest are non- electric. There’s no water on-site but has trash and 2 clean vault toilets. Beautiful views of a pond and a playground for the kids. Sort of close to other sites but no one behind you so at least you have some space! Definitely plan to come back in the summer. Only 30 minutes to the national park.
Stayed here just a night but what a find! Free camping with hookups right in town. Fantastic AT&T service and plenty of space to walk the dog or play with the kids. Once you enter, you’ll see hookups on your right. These have electric and water. If you continue past the rest room, you’ll see another pull off on the right which has electric hookups only. The restroom was clean but only open during park hours. Noise settled down around 8pm and started back up around 7am. Definitely would recommend to anyone passing through. They do accept donations! Also would recommend swinging by Tin Buck Coffee, very close and very delicious!
Traveling through in my camper van so didn’t need to use the hook ups but they are available! There’s multiple RV hook ups along the left yellow rail. There’s trash bins across the road as well. Arrived on a Wednesday and was the only one there. Extremely quiet at night. Some occasional traffic the next day and had some maintenance folks fixing the sprinklers but overall, pretty quiet. It does smell of oil during the morning/afternoon which is expected being surrounded by oil fields. Felt safe and would stay again if passing through. And it’s free!
This place rocks. It’s perfectly placed between the Caverns NP and Guadalupe mountains NP. It’s free and has a clean vault toilet and trash cans. Right off the highway and tucked down a gravel road and very quiet at night. Sites are close together but everyone was respectful of quiet hours (7am-10pm) during my 2 night stay. There are five sites for you to pull through for larger rigs and then six camping sites. On the sign it states that you can’t stay unless you’re in an official site but others camped out along the rail which wasn’t an issue with me. Each site has a picnic cable that’s covered, grill and nice fire ring. Had good AT&T service and could work remotely. Definitely would recommend this place! I stayed Monday and Tuesday night and sites were filled both nights but people tend to filter out in the late morning so that’s the chance to snag a spot!
Arrived on a Sunday and there were two other campers. There’s a total of 5 sites with covered picnic tables and grills. There’s a large center area where you could park if sites were full or you have extra trailers from bringing your OHV toys. Extremely quiet at night and lots of coyotes in the distance. There’s a clean vault toilet and trash cans at every site. No water or hookups so come prepared. Town is about 25 minutes away. Easy pull in off the main road. If you are a tent camper, I’d think twice before staying here. The winds at night (1-4am) were intensely shaking my van and I could smell the dirt being blown in throw my vents so in a tent, I couldn’t imagine. Felt very safe and would recommend to others! Had 2 bars of AT&T.
