Book This Park
Sites are dry camping only, so come with a full tank and plan accordingly — the trade-off is a quieter, more natural experience. The open desert landscape offers dramatic skies and minimal light pollution — stargazing here can be exceptional. This park fills up fast in peak season — reservations well in advance are strongly recommended.
