There was plenty to see and do during our three-day stay in Big Bend, camping at Rio Grande Village. Would have been even more fun if water level had been higher so we didnt have to carry our canoe through some shallow stretches on our easy float from gravel pit to Rio Grande Village.

Great campground! Hosts are always around and ready to help with anything.

The non generator sites are more private but none of them are even close to level. Just get a site on one of the first three loops, they're all level and you get to see the donkeys!

Loved the campground, was very tight with tents and campers in the middle. Donkeys will come over from Mexico with bells on the ding all night.

Very clean and quiet campground with plenty to grassy areas to pitch your tent.

Great campground for access to trails on the East side of the park. The store has a lot of provisions. Showers were clean. The only drawback is the lack of connectivity. Wifi is confined to a small space and was variable and slow for downloads/sending pics. Sites are large. Beautiful scenery. Fun to be able to go to Boquillas.

I LOVE this campground. Lifelong memories for me and my family. Sunsets in the hills by the nature walk are a must. We also loved exploring the nearby hot springs trail and taking the short drive to the springs for an early morning dip! No crowds and so much fun.

Sometimes there is irrigation on the grass areas of the campsites, but other than that this is A+! Highly recommended.

Amazing camp site. The rangers were so helpful and kind. Plenty of restrooms spread throughout the campground and the area is kid friendly. Lots of families. Everyone was great!

I also highly recommend an early morning visit to the Hot Springs a short drive from this campsite.
