Location, location, location. You can't get closer to Chaco Canyon unless you score one of the FCFS campsites in the park, and that requires driving a 13 mile unimproved road with some impressive washout ruts. This place is dry camping, no services except for a port-a-potty. It feels pretty remote but the owner is on top of who goes in and out. In the summer his two dogs will make you feel at home and welcomed. If you are headed to Chaco, I recommend this dry camp.
We spent 3 nights here pretty much with no one else. Sunsets and sunrises were spectacular! It's only 14 miles to Chaco and the roads not too bad. Wayne, the host, came by to check and make sure everything was OK. Made us feel very welcome. Yolanda was super helpful on the phone. It is dry camping so no fire rings. But we had a rock ring that was there. The only one. Great camp spot! Am looking forward to returning.
Dry camping with naught but a porta-potty. Super laid-back. Very beautiful setting and convenient to Chaco Canyon. The road to Chaco gets a little bit choppy. The owners are friendly and low-key. Be advised that if your camper is more than 24’ the per-day charge is double (that’s $40 as of April ‘23) and HipCamp doesn’t know that, so if you book through them the owner will come around and hit you up for the balance.
Our stay was excellent. The camp hosts are super friendly and informative. It was well worth staying here just so we didn't have to drag our trailer down the very rough road to Chaco canyon. Great stay!!!
We had a great time exactly what we were looking for. Off of the beaten path, off grid, and great views! The owner came and checked in every day which was great. Easily passable access. We are in a van and pop up camper. Enjoy!!!
