Good for RVs...less so for tents
Needed a last-minute stay while making my way from AZ to CA...the Wild West campground was on my way and seemed to fit the bill (was looking for laundry facilities, clean water, and a place to pitch a tent). Arrived after the office had closed (at dusk). The listing said there would be a # on the door to call if this happened. There was no number...just space #s for who to see after hours. As confusing as the map was trying to locate my own space (chosen at random when booking), the last thing I wanted to do when I arrived with the light fading fast was drive around looking for someone else’s RV and knocking on their door.
The space I booked online was full so I pulled up to the next available empty spot, which was unnerving because I wasn’t sure if I was taking someone else’s reserved spot.
There were no other tent campers as far as I could see.
I had no access to the bathroom code until the following morning when I asked someone. The office didn’t open until 9.
There were people who pulled up late next to me who were loud.
All in all, it was an uncomfortable night, with very little sleep due to noise and feeling out-of-place and a very rocky space to pitch a tent (like a hard driveway) with a highway just over the fence behind me. I could not find the picnic tables that were advertised in the listing and so I made my breakfast via my camp stove on the ground.
I did manage to get some laundry done (once the office opened because there is no change machine) but would not recommend this spot to campers (or at the very least, arrive before 4 to get the lay of the land). The manager was super nice once I finally met her but we were packed up and leaving by that point. If you have a RV, this place is probably great. If you are looking for a place to camp in peace and quiet under the stars, keep scrolling.
