This is a NO!

This area is inundated with squatters There was only one spot available and there is a LOT of trash. It’s too bad because otherwise this is a very nice place! Excellent trees, and excellent scenery. Make sure that when you choose a dispersed camping location that you choose one that is far from nearest town/city.

Pros and Cons of Skyline

All in all, I really enjoyed my stay there, but there are some things of which campers should be aware.

Pros: *Easy to get a reservation *Very nice desert landscape *This is a very very nice park with very very nice trail system. I think there’s something for all hiking, skill levels. *The sites are in expensive. *convenient to gas, rv dump, hardware, grocery, restaurants.

Cons: *There is no water. Neither potable or non-potable. *If you use off air antenna for TV, you won’t get any channels here *The campsites need to be better taken care of. For example, there were tall weeds growing up underneath the picnic table and its benches. *If you use Verizon, there is little or no signal most of the time. *From time to time there’s a bit of jet noise (not necessarily a negative) *This park is very very popular with local, hikers and they start before sunrise and finish after sunset. So it’s very busy right next to the campground.

Very nice facilities and very tidy!

This is a very well-kept campground. It is has restrooms and showers. The sites are nice and mostly flat and nicely groomed. The staff here is very friendly and helpful! I really enjoyed it and I will be back. I have a virtual job and I was able to work from this campground with no real issues with network connectivity for a full week.
