Great site! Clean and well-maintained. Campground guides were helpful and available. Would def go again!!

Nice sized spot (site 15), with table and plenty of rocks for tent spikes. Ground is way too rocky to get them in far, so had to tie off on the rocks. Recommend keeping rain fly on even if its sunny, we got rained on and had to cut trip short a day due to flooded tents. For a National Park youd expect things like water fountains or a shower but nope. Other than that, great place to stay if you want to check off climbing Guadelupe peak.

Nice, well spaced campsites

March is a windy, gusting presence. I knew that tent camping would be challenging, so I can't complain much about my tent, whipping and flapping noisily. Which it most certainly did. Nevertheless, I also got to view the Big Dipper as it moved around the top of my tent. I hadn't seen the Big Dipper for some time, and so I did not attach the tent lap. The temperature was pleasant. Morning was cool, and you appreciated the wind ceasing. A cool, mountain awakening and very still and quiet.

The setting of Pine Springs Campground provided magnificent sunsets and sunrises. Very easy access to all trails and super clean campgrounds and support facilities. We highly recommend this location and will return.

Pine Springs Campground: A Perfect Base for AdventurePine Springs Campground was a fantastic home base for exploring Guadalupe Mountains National Park. The sites were well-maintained, offering a rugged yet comfortable camping experience. The peaceful desert setting provided stunning views, and the cool night air made for great sleeping weather. Cooking under the stars was a highlight, with a warm meal after a day of hiking feeling like a well-earned reward. The campgrounds proximity to key trails like Guadalupe Peak and Devils Hall made early morning starts easy, and the quiet, remote atmosphere was perfect for unwinding. Whether tent camping or just looking for a solid base for hiking, Pine Springs did not disappoint!

The tent campsites were very nice and the facilities were clean and dry

Being able to climb the highest peak in Texas, along with hiking many other rugged and enjoyable trails make this a wonderful national park. Regarding when is the best time to go, early November has consistently been a wonder season due to warm days, cool nights, and stunning fall color. It's also very worthwhile to make the short drive over to McKittrick Canyon which also has beautiful fall foliage. A day trip to Carlsbad Caverns is also a wonder addition.

There are so many huge flies you can't even sit down and eat your food when camping here. The few water fountains we had nearby were broken and useless long before I got there. Other than that, the views are pretty great.

Nice campground layout. Pick a spot carefully if you are there in the hot months as shade can be lacking, also note some sites are walk in and some are drive up. The hike to the two springs from Frijole TH are really nice.

Park and campsite were very nice. Did a hike to Devil’s Hall on Tuesday afternoon and then did the peak on Wednesday morning. Nice trails and great weather overall. A bit windy at the summit but expected that. Really nice visitors center with exhibits and friendly rangers. Also a nice gift shop.
@MichaelK549 · Camped on Dec 17, 2021 at Campsite #15
some of the sites are pretty far from the road for car camping. Site #15 was a good balance between too far and too close. And it has a nice tree.
@BryceJ532 · Camped on Nov 21, 2021 at Campsite #15
Great site beautiful views very private. Short walk from car.
@IanB457 · Camped on Nov 10, 2021 at Campsite #15
It would be nice if the tent camping bathroom was updated like the RV bathroom with sinks, flush toilets and maybe add a dishwash station and also an information board.
@patriciab882 · Camped on Oct 28, 2021 at Campsite #15
Nice campground, beautiful park. Highly recommend visiting. Only negative was the distance to get water.
@RichardS769 · Camped on Oct 24, 2021 at Campsite #15
