Stayed here during a busy Paramotor fly in early February. Full hookups were $50/night and tent spots were $25/night. They have a coin laundromat onsite, 30a plugins, and propane. It was a quiet park with friendly locals.

Just thier briefly, traveller's, day trippers and desert trekkers. Salton Sea is unique, it's not the great salt lake, but worth seeing just the same?

I came for the annual fly in (paramotor’s) very quiet at night! Early morning buzz from the paramotor’s flying which is pretty cool to watch if you are not flying. Very friendly people. I will definitely be back 🪂
