This is a small campground out in the woods behind the owners house. We had a 50 amp full hook-up at the top of the hill for our 34’ Travel Trailer. The road up to the site was a little washed out and steep - used 4 wheel drive - but we did ok. Campsites on the hill are huge … lots of room between other campers. There are few near the front that were side by side. Didn’t check out the bathho... This is a small campground out in the woods behind the owners house.

Campsites on the hill are huge … lots of room between other campers. There are few near the front that were side by side. Didn’t check out the bathhouse, but internet says there is one. Campground is about 6 miles off the highway. Owner was very kind and welcoming, price was right ($40) and it was very quiet and peaceful. Clear night with no nearby lights made it a great place for star gazing! Perfect place to stay overnight or for a few days!

Beautiful place, easy to get to. Geat access to the interstate and to shopping. We're visiting family in the area and found this Park. Reviews are great for good reason. Junior (owner) met us at the entrance, guided us to our site, and stayed till we had set up and made sure everything was as it should be. We have a 38' 5th wheel and had no trouble getting in and set up with full hook-ups. Satelli... Beautiful place, easy to get to. Geat access to the interstate and to shopping.

We have a 38' 5th wheel and had no trouble getting in and set up with full hook-ups. Satellite reception is off and on due to trees, but that's not a big deal for us. We did wake up to ants in the dog food bowl the first morning, but a quick trip to Walmart for ant killer cured that. I also sprayed around the jacks, wheels, and all hoses that touched the ground. Would definitely recommend this place! I've read most of the reviews for this place, and a couple of them gave low ratings. I'll say this...if you're looking for a crowded, recreation oriented "resort," this is not your place. On the other hand, you'll find full hookups, easy access, large sites that are well spaced, peace and quiet, beautiful country, and an owner that truly is kind and helpful. Roads are currently easily navigable after 2 days of rain.

We had a great experience here. The owner Junior was super friendly and helpful. The spot is off the road so you get privacy, peace and quiet. Nice area to do some walking. We have a 43’ RV and it was easy in and out. Beautiful woodsy area. Full hook ups.

Small campground owned by the nicest gentleman. Escorted us to our campsite after we arrived late in the evening. We were setup at camp within 5 minutes of arriving. Near Natural Bridges. Park accepts cash but no credit cards. Our site was only $30.00 for full hookups.
