Camp ground was amazing, unfortunately the water was low
This campground is really nice, I've been here since April 9th and it was great, the only thing is that It was cold outside, and when I've sleep, I feel cold and I couldn't go to the bathroom, And this is the best place to camp, and I like the Park Ranger guy, he is so nice and great.
We had plans to camp at Upper Pahranagat Lake for Easter weekend, but they were full by 2:30pm. We then decided to try Kershaw-Ryan State Park, one hour away from our first choice. We arrived at Kershaw-Ryan and weren't happy about how small and close the campsites are to each other. We were looking for a spacious area. Our next choice was Cathedral Gorge Campground, but we learned they too were full when phoned. Next option, Echo Canyon State Park, which is 43 mins away from Kershaw-Ryan. Our hour and half trip turned into a well worth it three hour journey. Echo Canyon is exactly what we initially wanted for a campground. Beautiful scenery, spacious, remote, plenty of availability, water stations at each campsite, trails, lots of geodes for kids to find, a fishing lake, an unexpected mini library and clean restrooms. Very well maintained campground. We loved everything about Echo Canyon State Park. Our kids didn't want to leave. We'll definitely make the three hour drive back here.
