Black Rock Campground

Nice nature campground with picknick table and fire pit. Also nice tracks nearby.

I had an excellent time. The roads yes had some pot holes but nothing any normal non modified vehicle cant handle. The parking space for the site i selected 041, was a bit unusual. It had a bit of a dip so if you parking facing forward towards the site, be careful on the dip. Otherwise if you park perpendicular to the site, you wont have any issue. The weekend we went, the winds at night were honestly insane. Ive never experienced that much wind anywhere in my life. So check for weather. If you see winds are above 30 mph then just know you are in for a somewhat ridiculous ride. Otherwise, great campsite. bathrooms were no where near as bad as some have reported. They were relatively clean for a campsite. There are onsite trash cans to toss trash in, but there is no where to wash dishes.

We were towing a travel trailer so maybe a different experience than others. The roads were atrocious, very torn up and washed away!!! They didn’t give us a campground map at checkin and the roads were so bad that we had a hard time finding our site. They also didn’t give us the campground rules so we had to figure it all out on our own.. It was very windy at the time we were there (obviously not a dig of black rock) the wind made out stay a bit miserable… rangers were very friendly and informative, which was a good thing since the girl in the nature center at check in was very UNinformative!!!

Camp sites are more or less fine but roads in campground are an absolute mess - ie huge potholes and erosion.

The roads in the campground were in poor condition- badly washed out. I realize there were extreme rainfall events last year, but it seems like it is time to proceed with repair, even if they are temporary repairs using gravel to infill the gulleys. Several guidebooks mention a "Nature Trail" near the Black Rock Nature Center, with a printed trail guide sheet available at the Nature Center. The rangers at the Nature Center were unable to direct us to the trailhead, and no trail guide pamphlet was available. On the positive side, the bathrooms were clean.

Magnificent views, the place is like a dream, highly recommend!!
