Great camping experience. LOTS of wildlife at the campgrounds, but didn't run into any issues.

Showers were OK but not great, no seat or hooks.

When we arrived, alas, our camper was too long to make the curve into our site. The off-duty park host came out to help us and contacted the on duty hosts (referred to as the Two Morrows because of their names). They immediately helped us out by securing an area that was formerly a road and allowed us to park there. What could have been a very disappointing adventure turned out to be wonderful as I think we had the best spot in the park. The hosts checked on us after we got settledand visited for awhile. Wish we could have stayed longer and will definitely return.

My wife and I loved it here! Overall, it was quiet and peaceful, with only a few folks ocassionally running their generators to cool down from the 90 degree heat. The campground hosts were very friendly and helpful. During out four day stay we needed to switch campsite three times because of not being able to book the same campsite for every night. But you do what you have to do. Each of the thee campsites were mostly level, needing only one leveler under one wheel a couple times. The restrooms were pretty clean but frankly, the dish washing stations were pretty nasty. At ant rate, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay Rio Grande Village, and seeing the sites throughout the Park. Visit Mexico if you can. It was a very cool experience. To sum it up, I'll say this. We drove four and a half days and 1,800 miles to get to Big Bend. We would do it again in a heartbeat. We made memories that I will cherish.

I found the Rio Grande camp very clean, well taken care of and quite. ( I was in the no generator side). Camp host stopped by briefly and was very pleasant. I very much enjoyed my time there. The visitor center couple were friendly and very helpful in planning my stay .

The camp site lack the space for a tent on the grass. We ended putting it on the gravel. The family next to us had children and they were loud during the evening hours and in the morning. Over all we had a good time camping and the RioGrande Village was nice.

Site 38 difficult to park in because of overhanging trees branches (our small RV is 10 1/2 feet tall) but we managing after much finagling. Very good, clean dump and water fill station. Only propane in the Park is at Camp Store by appointment Mon-Fri.

Nice campsites. Only 1/3 occupancy due to CoVid.
