Concrete picnic tables, fire pits, beautiful San Miguel River dirty from recent rain.
PLEASE sign in so BLM can see real usage and keep stocked/repaired appropriately.

2 shaded tent campsites, 2 no real shade sites that were big enough for our 20 foot trailer. Gravel parking lot can fit many larger rigs, road noise during the day. Cool river breeze really takes the stink off the heat, which is nice. Water is perfect temp to cool down in the summer. Not crowded, can fish in the river, beautiful scenery along the highway to get here. Fire rings. Happy to see the area was really clean, no trash really. Bathrooms were ok. Had 2 to 3 bars with Mint Mobile and LTE internet. Best of all, free.

While there are only about 6 designated sites, there is plenty of space for campers to park without an actual ‘site’. The campground is FREE and has a clean and odor free vault toilet with t-paper but no hand sanitizer or water. The adjacent road quiets completely at night. Temperature dropped to freezing at night in early May so be prepared.

Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
