Location and site were great! Close to the restroom. Site was well maintained and private due to the foliage.

Canyon was amazing and the campground was fine.

We tent camped at a number of NPS campgrounds this July, and in comparison Gunnison made the bottom of the list. The hosts were wonderful, but it's a busy busy campground. Though the sites look secluded the sounds carries from all over the whole campground, so you can hear everything all night. There's no real running water for washing dishes, but then there's not a good place to dispose of any grey water you may create. The water they do have is brought in so quite limited. We'd grown used to water, and flush as opposed to pit toilets at all of the other NPS campsites. Though not a big deal, it was less than ideal in comparison. Really though, the major issue isn't as much about the camping as the visitor center. Not enough parking for a place that is both the main information hub AND the start of some trail heads. This resulted in a number of people angrily double parking and blocking in others. None of this is to say that it wasn't worth it, but you will want to get your expectations in check. On the good side, the trail to the visitor center from the campground goes right along the edge of the canyon and is gorgeous. While the view of the stars at night was one of the most specataular we saw.
