Beautiful place to camp. Amazing views and cell service from skyline dr. Wifi not so good in the campground but it's available. Water and electric at all sites and sewer at a few.
Beautiful scenic views. You have to drive from Fort Davis to Prada Marfa for the 505 Rd and stop at the point of rocks. The other must visit is to the McDonald's Observatory on the highest elevation of Texas.
There are numerous trails of all levels of difficulty. Great views. The interpretive programs were terrific and frequent, one or two programs per day normally, and geared towards all ages. Close to several cute towns, McDonald Observatory, and Chihuahuan Desert Research Institute. Campsite was in great condition. Bird blinds are the best I've seen anywhere, complete with water features, feeding stations with various foods to attract a wide array of species, seating, shelter, and resources for bird identification.
Wonderful State Park with plenty of hiking trails. Skyline drive is magical, one of the trails from the end of Skyline takes you right underneath some large Hoodoos! Can’t wait for Indian Lodge to reopen next year!
We so enjoyed this campground and hiking. We hiked over to fort Davis which was a diverse trail up the down. We also hiked the quail trail side. Highlight of the park are the two birding blinds and the visitor center as well as the programs.
Warm showers too! Also great CCC buildings
