This is a picturesque naturalist oriented park that can accomodate about 30 30+ foot RV's with 30A power. Has unique circular parking arrangement with electric only at each site. You can fill potable water at office. Office and general store has limited hours. Dump available. Lots of wildlife wandering through park. I have been here during Summer and the Park Rangers give great evening talks by firelight. Very quiet. Seasonal pool. I like this park but can understand why others wouldn't. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground is now part of Pinnacle National Monument and accordingly offers a 50% discount with Golden Age Passport. Nightly rate with electrical starts at $25 for two people and goes to $40 for 6 people, the maximum number of people allowed in one site. Water and dump available but only electrical at sites, side by side. There are three loops with electrical with 12 sites in each loop. Each loop has a central picnic table area and fire ring area, four of each. Several old rigs in Loops 92 and 93 that appeared to have been there for some time and unoccupied. Paved road to sites but dirt at sites. There is a pool. We checked the place out as a possible destination to take our grandkids for a few day. No cell phone service. Self-registration in process when we made our visit. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This camp ground is next to Pinnacles National Park. The park is known for its condors breeding ground and rock climbing. The camp ground is rather rustic. The camp sites are arranged in a big circle, you set up like spokes of a wheel. Electric is at your rig, water is shared by a central spigot in the middle of the 'wheel'. There are three of these wheels. The camp ground manager is not the nicest person in the world. She is right, you are wrong even when you can prove that you are right. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Spacious campsites, many shaded by huge trees. Well kept grounds. There were hundreds of RVs there for July 4th weekend, but it didn't feel crowded. This is a very clean, well cared-for members-only park with a well stocked store, family lodge with game rooms, ping-pong, putt-putt golf, shuffleboard, adult lodge with pool tables and a few exercise machines, weekend activities for kids, craft classes for kids, etc. Lots of beautiful trees. Very friendly and courteous campers. Nice and quiet at night. The park has a guarded gate and we felt safe enough to let our young kid bike around. People drive at 5 mph. Cellular service info: Verizon service only; good reception at the family lodge; very weak Verizon signal in Section I; better reception in Section C. Free Wi-Fi access at the family lodge, Wi-Fi at the campsite for a fee. It gets hot here in the summer (mid-80's to low 90's), but there is a fresh wind of 10-15 mph and many well shaded sites. Or pick one without trees if you want easy aiming of your TV satellite dish. The only con we noticed was that it can get a bit dusty here, so pick a campsite that's upwind of the dustiest roads. It's out in the middle of nowhere, with few restaurants nearby, so plan on cooking your own food. However, on most Saturdays and holidays they offer good, hearty and cheap breakfasts for a couple of bucks. Also burgers and hot dogs at lunch time on Saturdays. Ice cream socials are fun for the kids and adults too. We enjoyed our 4 day stay. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We stayed here for 3 weeks for nothing as it was a TT pk and had wonderful end site next to clubhouse. Clubhouse was nice however the one pool next to it was not open when we arrived and had to drive to the one that was open. In the 3 wks the other pool did open up for Memorial Day. They had a nice turnout for the Holiday dinner and band. You have to drive out for ATT Cell service and we had to use our Wilson antenna for laptop service. Groceries area a way to go for also. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
