Beautiful, quiet setting. Plenty of options for activities in the area (hiking, driving, birding, etc.) Small RV sites are nice as they keep out the overbearing domineering types. Bathrooms were always clean, wifi signal always available at the ranger station. I hope to return sometime.

Nice secluded campsite - neighbors were friendly but quiet. Only downside is the lack of showers but the heated bathrooms were a plus!

Wonderful remote campground with water and flush toilets. WiFi was available on the porch of the ranger station; there is no cell service out here. Had a skunk and a couple javelinas come visit our site.

The campground was beautiful and well-maintained. We appreciated having access to WiFi (available at the ranger’s station). The various trails offered scenic and easy to moderately strenuous hikes. This was our third camping trip to Dog Canyon, and we have thoroughly enjoyed our stay each time.
