Lots of great trails to explore and spot condors

Nice rv area, easy to navigate. Showers and store great, wish store was open longer.

Campgrounds are in a nice rustic setting and there is good room between campsites. Thank you for not charging to use the showers.

I loved my stay. Many more amenities than I had imagined. Lines for showers were long but I hadn't expected showers at all so I was not bothered. Bathrooms and campground were clean.

The campground was well cared for. The trails were clean as well. Rangers took care to limit cars as parking filled up. Well be back next spring for more exploring & birdwatching.

As soon as we pulled in, there was wildlife all around. We saw deer and turkeys throughout the campground. It was nice to have electrical hook ups to stay warm at night, when the temps dropped. The electric pedestal on our site was a bit loose, not securely attached to its concrete foundation, but it worked. The park is amazing and filled with lots of views across all the hikes we did. The store was surprisingly stocked well, but overpriced as you would expect in this remote area. Cell service was available, although it was weak, we could still text if we wanted, although we were really there to get away from that. Site was right next to an oak tree and we felt the spacing between sites was good, you didn't feel overcrowded. Got to watch the woodpeckers roost each evening. Overall, the campground was a nice spot for the 3 nights we stayed.

Beautiful park. Dump station and showers closed without notice which was a bummer.

First time visit to the campground. I like that they have electricity for RVs. Be sure to fill up with water before you set up your RV. There is a dump station with daytime hours, get the key from the store. It is a very nice setting for the campground with large sites. We have AT&T phone service, so it was nice to have some reception for our phones. Will return someday.

No check-in required. Site was ready and clean. I don't understand why the dump station is now locked requiring you to get a key from the store.

Fun hikes and lots of turkeys.
@DouglasB180 · Camped on May 10, 2021 at Campsite #85
Store and park maintenance was good
@MattH690 · Camped on Apr 26, 2021 at Campsite #85
Campground was in decent shape. RV area has plenty of water stations for refill. Dump station was closed, which was annoying, but was being fixed when we left. No bathrooms/showers near the RV loop and the only showers are in pretty rough shape. The store has quality products at decent prices. Old guy in the store is super friendly and helpful. We left the RV at the campground and rode bikes to both trailheads. Plenty of wildlife and the stars at night are amazing.

The hiking and scenery is amazing at Pinnacle National Park. The campground offers 30amp service for RV but would be nice if each site had water. The dump site was out of service which added some inconvenience. Other then that it was a great campsite.
@KathyR537 · Camped on Apr 14, 2021 at Campsite #85
Once again the RV dump station was closed. This is a reoccurring issue for several years now. Have repairs made or allow those that make reservations a notice that its out of service!
Thanks
Thanks

Restful. Peace and quiet.
@MoniqueD289 · Camped on Mar 13, 2021 at Campsite #85
A good spot with a lot of hiking opportunities. The day-use was really backed up, but the ranger escorted me to the campground in lieu of having to wait in the line.
@KevinC992 · Camped on Jan 15, 2021 at Campsite #85
Great campsite; close to a busy hiking trail - lots of day use coming in for this trail (Bench Trail maybe?); better trail is S Wilderness trail - far less people; site was good - 3 minute walk to camp store/ranger area; Visitor center is used loosely here; more of a small store with some camping essentials and friendly knowledgable people to assist; Jr Ranger books here; great area for Condor viewing - they come in mid to late afternoon every day; counted over 60 in the sky one day; 40-60 turkeys every morning at 7 to 8 am; site backs to road which can be busy; MLK Jr weekend was busy; site is very level; no blocks needed
