We showed up here looking for an RV site while we had repairs made. $40 seems high since we've used to campgrounds owned by the government but I really appreciated the modern laundromat and hot showers. The proximity to town was a big plus too. There are shade trees and beautiful cactus specimens. It was quiet.

Convenient to Del Rio, Amistad National Recreation site. The bathhouses could use updating. The sites are close to each other but have privacy fencing between which helps. Lots of dirt for sites, a couple loads of gravel would go a long way. We had a rain storm come through and had lots of mud. Many puddles still not dry around the bathhouse. We used the laundry and it was fine.
