We had a great time at Arroyo Seco. The campsites themselves are very well kept. We reserved both 27 & 28 which together was very spacious but unfortunately each site only allowed for 1 car each. Still the restroom and showers were close by so highly recommend this campground

Absolutely no internet or cell signal ...depending upon your point of view that’s either good or bad. No hookups but we knew that going in, too. The location is beautiful and the sites are large.

Very busy in the summer and sites are not spaced apart that much. Also really noisy at night with people blasting music late into the night and people talking really loud in the early morning hours. But, the campground is taken care of pretty well and the staff were very nice and accommodating. The nearby river was very nice, but crowded. Overall it is a decent campground that does its job but has some quirks.
