Sweet spot to camp while exploring the Needles district. Quick drive to the visitor center. Pit toilets were decent and appreciated. We got a site with a large, flat tent pad that was helpful for pitching our tent.

Beautiful campground right near needles district of Canyonlands! Our tent site was not flat but sufficed for one night of camping. Had a great time scrambling up the hamburger rock in the morning before heading out!

Beautiful sunsets! Only a ten minute drive from the needles district visitors center for water and wifi. The vault toilets were super clean, the campsites were tent friendly, and we had a great time!

Beautiful campground!! I used the Scan & Pay feature on the Recreation.gov App. When paying for campground site, offline, the App pre-populated all my information EXCEPT my Lifetime Senior Pass number, which I had to manually input. My pass was already stored in the App! I had wifi the next day and recieved an email saying my pending campsite payment transaction was completed. BUT, it's now a week later, and the App is still sending notifications that I have a Pending Transaction and I should open the App to complete it??
