Very nice campground. Clean. Is as described---no electric or RV hookups. Most picnic tables are covered and there are privacy barriers between many of the campsites. There are flush toilets (!!) and bathroom has lighting. There is no soap but there was an air hand dryer. I see some complaints about the bathrooms but man, I am always delighted when there are clean (and these were) flush toilets after many, many campsites with pit toilets. The river is right below the campsite. You can hear it at night (once the generators for the RVers go off). Be sure to check out the trails down by the boat landing. We saw big horn sheep on the river trail. Close by the other direction is Cathedral Wash trail. wow, wow, wow. It is challenging in that there are 3 points where one needs to climb down (then back up) a 30 ft drop in the wash. Lots of hikers on the trail. The walk down the wash is magical because as you descend you are going through the layers of sediment that you can see in the Vermillion Cliffs. Also, take time to check out Navajo Bridge Monument. The condors hang out on the bridge structures. You will be able to capture amazing pictures.
Very nice campground, it's a bit off the beaten path, but worth the journey. No dirt road. There are even flushing toilets!!! Most all of the sites have a shaded picnic table and fire pit, The views are beautiful. Only downside is hard to stake your tent because of the rocks, but I improvised.
Excellent hilltop campground with views of the river. Quick drive down to the beach and river access. Hiking trail from campsites. Very clean bathrooms, flushing toilets. Dump station( free for campers) and potable water by ranger housing. Lots of people fishing, barbless hooks,flies,lures. No bait. Fire pits on site, wood at general store for $10.50.
