Brian our host was great. The place is very peaceful. Lot of mosquitos. High water levels in spring make fishing difficult. Warm spring days and freezing overnight temps.
My family and I were ask to leave when we haven’t did anything. We were just minding our business and enjoying our time. Worker accused us of ruining his restroom. Which, We did not do at all. He went straight to us and didn’t even ask other campers. We also didn’t know there was a limit of 8 and he told us to leave by 12 pm. I think he could’ve handled that a lot more better. Either tell us we have to get another spot or just try to work out something instead of just kicking us out. Came all the way from NM, a 2 1/2 hr drive to get there. For family to spent some time and kids to have fun outdoors during this difficult time just to get kicked out for something we didn’t do. I don’t want to say that my family was racially targeted but it sure felt like that because we were the only Navajos
in our camping section that was camping right there. He should’ve at least asked other campers but he just went straight to us and kicked us out. Was such a beautiful place but didn’t like how we were treated by staff.
Great location if you want to get off the grid and enjoy some peace and quiet.
What a spectacular place to camp right on the river. Quiet and peaceful.
