Something not right?
Description
Campsite is inside of the Big Bend State Park (not to be confused with the National Park next door). We paid our daily entry fee of $3 (non peak season rate, otherwise it’s $5). The campsites have to be picked out in advance and paid for there as well. There is backcountry($5/night) primitive ($8/day) and equestrian ($2 per day/horse). We picked Grassy Banks because it has an outhouse and is on their river. There is a boat launch and I highly recommend site #15. It’s on the river and close to bathroom. There is a picnic table and a fire ring. No running water or WiFi here. That seems to be the same throughout the park (minus the outhouse)
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
Nice little campground. Close to the road but the traffic is not bad so pretty quiet. We stayed 2 nights because it is close to the contrabando trail heads for mountain biking. There are 2 composting toilets and every site has a shade structure and table. Site 15 is close to the river but the others are further away. $12 per site and 1/2 price if you do multiple nights. You can book online or directly at the Barton Warnock center.
Report Check-InOK places but not very "charming", and quite dusty. Some places are in the bush and have a shade-roof. Boat ramp and a very clean outhouse with toilet paper and some movable blue toilets. Quite at night.
Report Check-InNew Price 12$ for the Place and 5$ per Person. Lower Places be carefull. Some very sandy.
