Monarch Park Campground was really nice. The campsites were spacious and spaced far enough apart from one another that we only caught glimpses of our neighbors. The place was clean and the hosts came by and checked on us the first night. It was in a good location, far from the city but only 30 minutes from Salida, a cute town with delicious ice cream. Hiking options nearby. But my favorite part was the stars. So many stars you can see, 100% worth the drive.
