The grounds were clean, the camp host cleaned and restocked the restrooms several times a day. There is also running water. Plenty of room for multiple camp trailers, and still plenty of room for the toys. We visit the same camping spot every year, going on 10 years now. Look forward to it every year.

One of my favorite places to go hike, camp and explore. Best view of bears ears hands down. Dog friendly as well.

Camp hosts where rude to my grand kids. We are a pretty quiet respectful family and keep to ourselves. Even with helmets on and riding on a tiny beginner motor cycle that had a max speed of 8 they got pissed at us. And were rude to my daughter that had her kids with them. I recommend they find new camp host. We have camped in at least 12 other camp site in the last 16 years. Never had hosts be so... Camp hosts where rude to my grand kids.

Never had hosts be so grumpy about so many different things. I think they just didn't want to see anyone having a great time camping. 5 stars for that are extremely mellow and super quiet and early to bed. 🇺🇲
