Awesome visit

Had a great overnight here, wished I had time to spend a few more days. It was early season, water wasn’t on in the campground yet. There were only 2 campers in the campground. Easy access to the visitor center and rim trail.

Nice spot

This seems like a new park, trees are young, picnic tables are all covered. I pulled in before the office closed and got a site, otherwise go to Reservations.gov. Showers and laundry is available near the office. Vaulted toilets are available nearer the camp sites. Well cared for, like I said it seems brand new.

First to Review
Possible overnight, primarily picnic area

This is a great spot with 3 covered picnic tables with grills. There are 3 nice, relatively short hikes to see canyon, ruins of homestead sites and stagecoach stop. The board clearly states day use only, yet I spent a quick overnight in the parking area. Nice pit toilets, like other USFS sites. There are garbage cans at each of the picnic tables. No water. Met a local here and he told me about Withers Canyon Trailhead, further down a rough road if I wanted to stay longer. It has dispersed camping and a similar toilet.

Good overnight stop

No problem with Google maps to find it. The lake is pretty high and there are a couple of picnic tables almost in the water. With the water this high the road around the lake is maybe 12” above the water. I stayed near the boat launch. No one else was there.
