Spacious spots just inside the entrance to the park. Good call phone coverage and quick access to town, while still being inside the park boundaries for easy access to trails and the shuttle without lines to enter. Nice bathrooms and dish sink; no showers but nearby showed and laundry are listed at the bathroom.
We arrived mid-October, when sites are first-come first-served and the fall foliage absolutely beautiful. Only two loops were open and a good number of sites, including all the riverside ones, were taken. We drove around twice before noticing the absolute gem of a spot A10. Perfect secluded very slight walk-in tent site amidst otherwise packed together sites clearly designed for RVs. There was maybe a 10 or 15 foot walk to a beautiful clearing.
Some rain blew in just as the sun was setting, but the skies opened up a bit later and were absolutely stunning. A true dark sky for real stargazing. It was chilly at night and Jack Frost visited, leaving a beautiful glisten for the morning.
We left to do the scenic drive and spot Petroglyphs. Everything was dried by the warm fall sun by the time we came back around 10am to pack up. We then hit the dinosaur quarry which was SO COOL!
Right next to A10 is the Riverside trail. It's a short walk to a flush toilet with warm water. Always a plus when fall camping!
