Feral donkeys screaming all night. Three of them nearly trampled my tent. Multiple insane donkeys racing through campsites all night long was not in my big bend bingo card.

Has running water for toilets, trailer hookups, dedicated dishwashing sinks. The campgrounds have hosts on duty for assistance. Really close to a super easy nature trail thats a great morning walk overlooking the Rio Grande. The campground has wild horses, wild cows, and wild javelinas roaming regularly so you need to have food secured, but each campsite has large bear boxes included.

Pleasant experience. The Mexican Livestock were a bit of a problem. I realize that park staff have not the time to herd cattle. But I still wish something could be done. maybe cut an informal deal with the villagers, e.g. Keep the cattle out of the park and we won't bother the entrepreneurs selling tacos to the tourists basking in the hot springs

Clean sites, nice hosts, nearby showers

Arrived to find out that our RV would not fit under tree branches at Site 41, no matter how hard we tried. Host Brian was especially helpful in finding a more suitable site.

We stayed in the Village and it was decent. Space between neighbors was pretty good. Liked the covered picnic table, width of our site and bear/javelina box. Hosts stopped by within minutes of our arrival and were very friendly and helpful. Loved the proximity of the store, visitor center and hot springs! Favorites were Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive and Santa Elena Hike. I wish Big Bend had more camping options. The Village is so far away from many of the sites. Showers were NOT very clean : (SO SAD that this is a dark sky park and people had lights on and drove around with headlights shining.

Camp ground is well maintained. Only cold water in the bathrooms. There are showers up at the camp store ( $2/5 min)- they get decently hot, water pressure is decent but not great. Javelinas roam the grounds, we had them wander into our site like clockwork every evening. We stayed 4 nights- 2 of the nights it was very windy to the point that tents were blowing over. The sites around the perimeter seemed to have more wind protection but we were in essentially a big field and the wind was fierce.

The hosts were excellent - helpful and friendly. Large sites - we were in a "no generator" zone. We have solar, and easily recharged over our time at our site. Remember - Rio Grande Village is much warmer than the rest of the park! (Ask the Rangers) Bathrooms clean.

My experience at the site was excellence. FYI selecting a rate isn't working. Web developer need to fix it.

We were at site 50 and it was great! lots of space, comfortable grass, not too far from restrooms.
