Bathrooms have NO toilet paper, Trash cans are overflowing, and people come and go, stay overnight and NEVER pay a dime.
Otherwise it's a great place to stop for the night.

We camped here on our way to California. We enjoyed a quick walk down the river. Place was clean and easy to find. Not the prettiest place but it is a great place to stop for a day on your journey. Summers get to hot for me here though. Fall and spring are best.

Unique location. Hot with no shade. Beautiful in the evening. Was to be expected in the desert in May. Neighbors (kids) were very loud until midnight. Quite hours 10pm to 7am
Still glad I got to experience this camp location.

Beautiful and tidy campsite
The campsite is really very neat and nicely laid out. Especially the places with roofs are great, as they give pleasant shade. A small suggestion for improvement: A few signposts with the seat numbers would make the search on arrival much easier. Overall but absolutely recommended!
