Experience the unparalleled beauty of our campground, uniquely situated on the rim of the breathtaking Palo Duro Canyon. Just steps away from the entrance to Palo Duro Canyon State Park, our location offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, allowing you to immerse yourself in nature. Our campground features level sites with convenient pull-through access, ensuring a hassle-free stay. Each site is equipped with full hook-ups, including water, sewer drainage, and either 30 or 50 amp electric service. For those seeking a more rustic experience, we offer expansive "free-range" tent camping and primitive campsites, providing ample space and privacy. Enjoy a variety of outdoor activities right on-site, including a thrilling zip-line experience. The cooler temperatures and refreshing summer breezes on the rim make for a comfortable retreat during the warmer months. Stay connected with strong cell phone coverage throughout the area, and rest easy knowing there are no steep roads to navigate—unlike the 10% grade roads found in the State Park, which can pose challenges for larger camping rigs. We pride ourselves on our flexible hours of operation, offering 24-hour access for our guests. Plus, we welcome your furry friends, making our campground a pet-friendly destination for the whole family.
