Overnight stays are allowed in two areas within the refuge boundary - on E Division Rd, 3 miles off Hunter Rd., and about 9 miles North on Hunter Rd. The overnight area is just before you cross the canal near the Center Rd intersection. Both sites are near vault toilets, but that's it for development and comfort - these are primitive sites with no other features! There are no fees for overnight stays, but they are limited to four (4) consecutive nights at one location, not to exceed twelve (12) consecutive nights on the refuge.

So unexpected and the amount of wildlife was amazing! We went late may/ early June and have went back several times.
I am not sure where the last reviewer was, as the lake was full and many of the trenches were also. Summer isnt the best time to bird the area, but we saw yellow-hearded, Red-winged and Brewers blackbirds. Lots of ducks, pelicans and saw a field filled with hundreds of Ibis. It was worth the drive. See they are doing some dredging to repair the wetland and that will be great.
