Great!

Pros: Our site had lots of shade, access to the Colorado river. Bathrooms are a quick 2 minute walk. There is a potable water station nearby, and WIFI in the parking lot. There is ice, ice cream, cold water, Gatorade, a few camp supplies for sale at the park headquarters as well.

Cons: have to walk down a hill from the parking lot, kind of close to neighbors but luckily it was empty when we came. There was a shower but an outdoor quick wash off type thing with barely any water pressure. Absolutely no cell signal in this whole park.

There were so many animals that came to visit us at night! 🦉 Owls, armadillos, raccoons, a couple wild hogs, gray foxes, deer, even saw a mountain lion at one point after our campsite got raided by the raccoons 🙈 I guess that’s what happens when you sleep close to their water source.
