The campsites are outside of painted hills park. Took us awhile to figure that out with no signal. We parked near the River when we arrived and the sounds were incredible. Near the River you could see a few painted hills and the sunset was amazing.

My husband and I had the worst sleep at this campsite. The wind was insane, we came in March. Sounded like someone was pounding on our tent all night.

The other downside - tons of dirt. It gets everywhere and on everything. My husband and I are used to mountain camping and don’t prefer sand or dirt locations normally. Just be aware your clothing and gear will be covered in it.

Overall, the sites were amazing, just tough weather and conditions during our trip.

My husband and I did our camping trip for the weekend here! Beautiful, private, and secluded. The campgrounds were wonderful- fair warning only a few campsites have a fire pit. A fire pit is a must in the winter - chilled winds, come prepared. Beautiful hiking trails and wildlife. I didn’t want to leave! Make sure you have a vehicle that is 4WD - getting up the mountain is long and rugged.
