I have stayed in a lot of our national parks, especially in the recent years and Ive got to say this campground was in pretty bad shape compared to most national park campgrounds. It had the overall appearance of just being rundown, even though there were a lot of campers there. Big Bend is a phenomenal national park and the campgrounds should be kept up at a higher standard.

The campsites are well set up very clean. Everything is well maintained. There are a wide variety recreation opportunities. Everything from very easy walks to backcountry hikes and everything in between.It was great fun watching the wildlife.

Wonderful experience! From finding our sites on the website, to reserving it, and meeting our host as we arrived on our site. WELL DONE NPS!!!!Site was somewhat ilevel... as level as could be hoped for in the Basin! Our Basin Host was great!!!!! Cellular service was perfect at our site.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The campground was clean and our site spacious and fairly private. We would stay again.

as mentioned befor your reservation system is terrible, ever since you hd all reservations done at rec gov or calling (very difficukt) we have not been abe t get days we awnated and when we arrive so many campsites are open all day and night when there are people who want to camp there but your system makes it impossible to get thse open spots.

The bathroom were all out of service so I had to switch to the privately run Rio Grande RV park for 45 extra dollars a night…No one knew when that bathrooms would be repaired and people were doing their business in the trees behind our rig without digging cat holes or packing out…Smelled like a sewer..

Nice clean campground surrounded by stunning scenery! The sites around the edges are private and shaded! The central ones are kind of shady too! There is a very nice trail that goes thru some wetlands and up to some beautiful lookouts! Mostly clean bathrooms, and there are dish washing sinks! No showers because of covid. There is a store with WIFI! Make your reservations well ahead of time!

Some may skip this site due to it's proximity to the busy restrooms and generator noise from neighbors. However, located directly behind this site is the nature trail. By all means get up there for sunset/ sunrise. A big thanks to the super-friendly host who hung out and chatted with us. She is one of the shining stars of BB staff!
