This was my second time staying at the campground and I enjoyed the peace and quiet while I slept.

This was a great stop over spot for me since it is so close to the highway. There was a lot of construction on the way getting there, so the Google maps spot sent me to the wrong spot. However the owner was quick to get back to me with correct directions.

It worked for what we needed, a place to rest our head for the night while passing through. It’s essentially a wide open space in someone’s backyard which felt kind of weird. Not so bad since we were the only ones there for the night. I believe it would be much better if you had an RV, but the wind was relentless and the terrible for tenting. The host messaged in a timely manner with the gate code, but did not respond to my other messages or phone call so I’m not even sure we were camped where we were supposed to be set up. No access to bathroom or shower.

5 stars all the way! Perfect for those traveling and needing a quiet and large space. Many roads traverse the property but from experience, I'd go it on foot. Super friendly and extremely helpful caretakers. Keep it clean, it's a beautiful piece of land!

Waking up to a symphony of no less than 6 varities of morning birdsongs was a dream come true. I heard the most amazing song from one bird, by far the best I've ever heard in my life! The birds were happy, they loved both sunset and sunrise. It was very special to share their home, an experience I will never forget. The Land Trust is amazing, untouched and wild, I hope it stays that way. The caretakers were trusting and open, allowing me to fold into the landscape wherever I chose, I was careful to leave no tracks so enjoy.

I spent a night in our van at Mariposa Trust Land, and it was a great experience! The area is beautiful and the hosts helpful!

Such a peaceful and Magical place! I was sad to be there for one short night! Cole was super inviting… the location was great, off the highway but couldn’t hear it. The community bathroom was clean and had what you needed.

Camping on the Plains at Mariposa
Our stay was only for 1 night, so we made it work since we were just passing through. Shower, toilet, and community center were advertised as accommodations. Unfortunately we did not get to use any of those. I would just suggest reaching out before your stay to make sure all the amenities will be available to you.

Good overnight stop that is gated and safe. We were the only ones there and night temp was 55 so comfortable stay. Very quiet and no traffic noise. It is literally dispersed parking around the community center with no trees for shade. Restroom was open but showers closed which was fine. Clear instructions from owners once booked and easy access from I-40. Close to restaurants and just outside of town so you don’t have to deal with traffic. Well worth staying here over the nearby rest stops and picnic areas.

Was not informed that gates to site would be locked. Tried reaching host no reply. Had to find another place to stay that night.

You can park an RV here, on the west side of Amarillo. But would you? It’s kind of in the middle of nowhere, and it has some facilities — a bathroom and a kitchen — but they’re in a building that seems leftover from some sort of failed utopian experiment. Management is extremely casual. (On the plus side, you can get a decent cell signal here.)

After a 7 hr drive from Santa Fe we arrived to find the Community Center was not available. It was 102° at 6:30 pm. So, no shower, kitchen: fridge, cooking equipment, cool space to relax. We headed back into town for more ice and to find a cool place to hang out until dusk. Later the hosts offered us their facility along with tie dying classes but we were already done for the night and we passed. This was our second stay here and you honestly never know what you'll get. A loud barking dog kept us awake most of the night as well.

I didn't stay. It felt not safe. So I drove around and got creeped out and left. I think that the reviews are fake. Every site needs a lot of work to clean up.

There weren't any shaded areas. There wasn't anything to block the wind. The host was VERY gracious and allowed us to stay the night in the clubhouse.

Nothing special about this Hipcamp. Just a spot to pull up and sleep for the night. Worked well for what we needed.

Awesome spot!! Appreciative of the community center during the storm that came through while we were there. It allowed us to cook inside! Would definitely recommend bringing all of your own cooking supplies. Bathroom was fine as well. Water takes a long time to heat, and we found that for the shower, it almost has to stay closer to the off side to heat.
We heard coyotes in the night, so just make sure food is locked up per usual with camping.

Camping on the Plains at Mariposa
Nice little place just outside of Amarillo, booked on a whim and I didn’t read the listing correctly. There wasn’t really a water or power hookup. I was able to fill my fresh tank at the community water spigot though. There were also some 120 outlets but I would have had to get the camper pretty close to reach it. Weather was surprisingly cool and breezy so we just boondocked we in the field instead. Was generally quiet throughout the night you can somewhat hear the highway but not too bad. Would definitely visit again.

For those of us who are independent and value open space and solitude, this is perfect. The community center has a kitchen, full bath, and laundry which are available for guest's use. It is an open area with a few places with accessible 110 outlet. Gated entry with code. If you need the comfort of people around you and actual campground atmosphere, you may not enjoy this. On the outskirts of Amarillo, but a short drive into town.

Just what I needed. A safe place to stop and sleep along my long journey. Having a bathroom, shower and kitchen with cookware to cook up a meal was a huge bonus! Of course it could always be better in some way. But it was just right for me and would definitely stay again! Thank you!!
