The campground was lovely, a creek running through - and we enjoyed an evening outdoor stargazing educational event in the parking lot of one of the visitor centers.

Open space, hardly any trees, great for watching the fantastic dark sky. Very basic restrooms.

We knew this was a low services campground when we booked. Everything was as expected. The restrooms (pit toilets) were clean and cleaned regularly.

A lovely peaceful campground for tent campers who want to escape noisy RVs and don't mind clean latrines and carrying your own water. (Water is available at the Lehman Cave visitor center). Some of the sites on loop A have a creek running next to them that sounds very nice at night. You can see the sun and moon rise from the campground. The Grey Cliffs rise above a riparian corridor filled with trees. Hiking trails nearby.
