Location, location, location! RGV is secluded on one side of Big Ben NP but only full hookup In the park. Sites are close. Good park store with one of only 2 gas stations in BBNP. Close to Boquillas del Carmen. Has laundry facilities, $2 for 5 minute shower at bath house.

We give this place a four star for local comparison purposes. It’s this or dry camping in Big Bend. Really tight sites but it has full hookup with sewer. Ultimately we spent so little time there it worked out great. Quiet at night. Did see a coyote nosing around the campground. Nice people and the store is really well stocked. That’s important since you’re a million miles from another grocery store. No cell service. Sketchy wifi.

A parking lot in paradise. Remote from majority of park but it serves us well. Camp store was well stocked and staff was nice. The sites are fairly close to neighbors with one row having narrow grassy easement with table. On next visit we will stay in the CG w/o hookups as it was natural with shaded sites and space between.

Location ! Beautiful National Park! Campsites are in a parking lot with full services. Close together but it's about the location ... version poor ... any TV you must have satellite. Roads very good... remote location and felt safe. Traveling in a motorhome , towing.

Sites are located on a paved area with 25 full hook-up spots. Sites 1-14 are on one side and hold RVs no longer than 35-36 ft. 10 of these sites are wide enough for the RV plus one other vehicle. Four sites are single width and appropriate only for small RV's without a tow. Sites 15-25 are on the other side of the paved lot and are wide enough for a large RV and a vehicle. Yes, it is basically a paved parking lot but it is in an attractive grassy area with trees and bushes as well as picnic tables. There is free wifi at the nearby building that houses the store, laundry, restrooms, and coin operated showers. As of 10/2016 sites were $36 and showers $2 for five minutes.

As other reviews have stated, this is a parking lot, but it is a parking lot with full hookups in Big Bend National Park. The Rio Grande Village store is close, and it offers pay showers and pay laundry, as well as pretty good Wi-Fi on the tables out front. Know which campground you are paying for before you make a reservation.

See other reviews for all you need to know. Add in that even Verizon does not get cell service here, you feel a bit too disconnected for the price. Only perk was close proximity to Hot Springs Canyon Trail. See short slideshow: http://youngfulltimers.com/thirty-second

$33 for 2 people a night if you want full hook up in a parking lot!

Go 1/2 mile to National Park site for $12 a night. Free dump station and water.

¿ìÈýƽ̨ note: This is a National Park campground but it is a concessionaire run location. That means it is a contract with another management company which is very common throughout the National Park Service. They are usually the ones with more hookups and services and these locations usually cost more.

This is basically a paved parking lot, but it's the only game in the park if you want hookups. It gets very hot here, like close to 100 even in October when we were there and there's no shade, so you do need your A/C at times. There is a store there for basic supplies, but be sure to do your full shopping before you get there, because this is remote. We spent 3 nights here and that was enough. If it's hot, spend the day in the Chisos Mtns. there. There's a lodge, nice restaurant and picnic areas up there, so you could find a shady spot to pass the day. There are nice scenic drives and hikes in the park, but it's desert and you are usually exposed to sun. If you plan to go in Nov. Or Dec., reserve well ahead because that's their peak time.
