The Only camping in the Terlingua Ghostown! With showers, toilets, WiFi, access to water and a few RV or Overland Hookups. We are 1/4 mile from Cafe Venga, High Sierra, La Posada Espresso, The Starlight, The Boathouse, and the Taqueria. Down unpaved, well kept road and just far enough away from the Ghostown nightlife.We are currently only offering cowboy style camping. We do have access to a non-lead ro water hose if you wanted to fill up your water vessels. You will have access to the showers and bathrooms No problem electric No septic The property is easy to get to, and there are multiple sites to camp, depending on your intense site. There are no designated camping spots. We’re just trying to offer camping to those food. Want to be close to the ghost town but you must be very self-sufficient. we can show you where you can camp, but that’s about it

15 ft pop-up camper

Easy access in and out, with a VERY short drive to everything Terlingua has to offer. The camp is fun and tidy. If over landing, just look for an open spot. Would recommend for a fun and safe stay.

Great view, nice amenities

Tent

We had a good experience camping here for 1 night. We were the only campers that night and there is limited space for dispersed camping. The Ruins have neat trailers set up for overnight use and that seems to be their primary business, so not really a campground. The showers were awesome and the bathrooms were clean. Beautiful views!!

Thank you Evin for hosting us. The spot was a nice level back-in with water and power hook ups and a nice bath house set up. A major perk of this site is it’s proximity to Terlingua ghost town!
