I swear this is probably the best full hookup for the price and a quick overnight/reset. No reservations needed, just pick a spot and drop the cash in the drop box at the office ( rear of park). Many sites available, Only 6 other RV’s here when we arrived. Quiet enough, sites clean and level, small bar/restaurant by gas station, don’t expect much but the ease of a cheap full hook up while traveling on 10. We would stay again.
Easy and convenient.

No frills park but had full hook-ups and plenty to choose from. RV Park office at back of park and was a self-pay $20 deal. Worked fine for a one night lay over stay.

Like all the other reviews. Excellent spot. No frills campground. Nice thing is it’s 20 dollars for full hook up. There was no attendant when we arrived. Just put 20 dollars in envelope and drop in a box. There was a little traffic noise from interstate. But very little traffic late at night.
Good, inexpensive 1-2 night stop

PROS- Mountain view with great sunsets- Beautiful cactus plantings- Very level, pull-thru spots- Short nature trail- FHU all in working order (for $20/nt.!)- Laundry (nice surprise)- No reservations necessary - Close to I-10CONS- Close to I-10. Noisy! We highly recommend Mighty Plugs earplugs from Amazon. They seem pricey until you get a good night’s sleep in a place like this. - Tons of trash everywhere
Great place to get a sound night's sleep!

We called the host to let them know we'd be arriving late and were told to just go to the office and there would be check-in info there.

We arrived after dark, and as there are no lights on the lot it was a little hard to see where we were going. We found the office though, and a sign indicating to put payment in a (provided) envelope and drop it in the mailbox. We had already paid online so assumed this sign is up all the time, and even if you don't have a reservation it appears that you can just pick a spot, pull in and pay on the honor system. The place was not very full and very quiet despite being so near the highway. We would definitely stay here again...It's a bargain price for a full hook up, easy-in, easy-out!

Nice campground right off I-10 but not too bad for traffic noise. Flat level sites, full hookups, all pull-through. Very big rig friendly, only about 10 other people there when we were. Super easy online check in. Lots of desert to walk dogs. No real amenities but worth the price.

There are so many spaces I can’t imagine they would ever fill up, at least until the state park re-opens ... in other words I wouldn’t even worry about calling ahead for now. The sites closer to the freeway are divided by native cacti and plants, the ones further back are bare. I was surprised to find a little nature trail right next to the RV park with great birdwatching. There’s also a beautiful view of the Davis mountains in the distance.

This place is literally right off the freeway, so of course you will hear it. And since it's right next to a truck stop you can hear a little of that too. However, the noise isn't horrible. Just wanted to clear that up.This place is about as easy as it gets as far as freeway access: get off the exit, turn into the Valero gas station and the RV park is right there off to the right, on the other side of the Saddleback Steakhouse. This is a self-serve RV park. There's a small unattended office in the middle of the park with a sign out front that says pick a spot and then put your $20 (per night) payment in one of the provided envelopes and drop it in the box. So yes, this is the honor system and there doesn't seem to be anyone really monitoring anything. Don't be the cheapass who sneaks in and out without paying. It's well worth the $20 for being able to charge up, fill up, dump out, and have a safe place to stay for the night.All sites are pull through, but the ones on the north side (closer to the freeway) are much longer. Big rig friendly. All in all it's perfect for an overnight stay but I couldn't imagine staying for more than a night or two. However, there's a few permanents living here and they seem to keep to themselves.
Quiet, safe, easy off I10

There was no envelopes, so I used a USDI one I had and wrote the site # and date. You definitely hear freeway noise, but to be expected next to the freeway. They had a newer ice/filtered water shack which was quite nice. The Valero has a little store and hot food area. The restaurant next door was not open when we were there.

It's right off the interstate so there is some traffic noise but nothing unbearable.

This park is just off the exit and you drive through the gas station entrance to get here, but the park is remarkably quiet and scenic for being in the middle of the desert and right next to the highway. We arrived around 4:30 pm on a Friday and the office wasn't open. They have a dropbox that tells you to find a spot and pay the nightly rate in the dropbox. The restaurant is closed, but if you need anything at the gas station, it is very close. For $20, we have water, sewer, and electricity. The T-Mobile cell service is amazing, but there aren't over-the-air TV channels. The sites are a little close together, but the first half have pretty desert plants between each site. There are clearly some long-term residents, but we felt safe and welcome and would definitely come back as a stopover.
Very Easy!

Perfect little campground. clean and well maintained. Just off the highway, but quiet enough. While there is free camping nearby, for $20 we were able to dump,, refill our tanks and charge our computers. There is a nice restaurant on site and reasonable gas station. Long level sites, full hookups!
