The actual "falls" are well worth a visit. And the BLM campground is nice, with widely-spaced sites at low prices. But also "out back" is a playa with almost unlimited dry-camp boondocking spots. Off the south end of the playa is a 4WD road that...Read More

What a great secluded, quiet campground. Clean vault toilets and well water at the entrance where you pay. A great trail to some awesome formations.

Great for dark sky astronomy. Really quiet. Except for the crickets. Bring hiking boots and go over to where the fossil river starts. You can walk down into it and see how amazing it is. The rocks look rough but feel soft to the...Read More

Hmm, not my favorite but did the job. Too many flies for my liking. Also black spiders come out at night in the toilet area. May not always be stocked with TP.Tables seemed like they were new and in great shape. I hope they stay that way for a bit.

Very quiet place. No road noise. No ATVs. Road is very rocky in the campground. Use outside road to get around rocky road to pay at self serve kiosk. $6 a night.
