Check-Ins

Massive parking lot. Some highway noise.

Dump station is located next to the automotive pumps, near the main entrance sign. Cashier says it $10 but if you pump $40 of fuel it might be free. Water tap is here too but no sign indicating if it’s potable.

Closed during the winter and the road to get up is under construction

Nice rest stop with water and dump station. Easy access from the interstate.

"No overnight parking" signs prominent all around. One tractor trailer (non-Walmart) parked at 730 pm...really looks like it's there overnight. I didn't stay. Next Walmart 19 mi north seemed friendlier on this app.

No winter parking allowed — sign says no parking 10pm-5am from Nov. 1 to Apr. 30.

The other signs say:

-2 hour parking 5am-10pm (paid).

-Overnight parking alternating sides (but presumably only may 1 - October 31).

Photo attached.

Right off the highway 15. Potable water spigot.

BLM land great spot . 3 miles in 4 wd might get be needed road a little soft . Great at&t service

Price for powered site is at 30AU$. You can just use the facilities and not camp for 2,5$. Looks very clean and well taken care. We did not overnight here though.

Made it here after a wild off road from Buchan. Great route but a bit demanding. You trespass a private property before you reach the river crossing that you are not allowed to camp. River crossing was straight forward in February. You will need to cross first to a small island and then on the other sideAs soon as you cross you are back in the N.P. and your camp is on your left. Only a picnic table here but the scenery is unbeatable.

Yes, it’s the ‘back up’ site, depends who’s on duty and if they like you I think...

Not to bad. Close to train tracks and lots of semi trucks camping here. Otherwise it was pretty quiet.

The camping has one of the warmest welcome I’ve seen in my life. They (don Beli + family) live in a house in the campsite and they even sell 12 sopaipillas for 2.500 CLP. We payed 4.500 per person for the night and he even provided us a table, some chairs and wood for fire. Probably, if we asked, he would’ve receive anything.

We entered with a motor home (2,5 m wide, 7 m long and 3,5 m tall) and there was no problem at all. Every site ad it’s own toilet because of covid and everyone was very respectful with social distancing.

They had even a trekking site and a mirador with really beautiful views, apart from the fogón that was not available because of covid.

Would totally recommend, except from the little noise at night from other sites.

I think the no truck or RV parking signs apply to the area approaching receiving. There were plenty of campers dispersed throughout the lot. We had a reasonably quiet night.

Mostly level parking lot. Arrived after hours and left before it opened so didn’t have the chance to check in with the staff but no one bothered me.
Mostly quiet at night. Some road noise. Good AT&T service. Would boondock here again.

Free dump and water, open 24 hours! Have bathroom, rest area, pet area, vending machines

This is a group camp only. Minimum $80-100/night. Chavez crossing group camp.

You can choose purified or alkaline water. Cash only. We paid 12 pesos for a 26 liter (7 gal) jug.

Agricola definitely does not “have it all.” They have a great selection of produce (not a sure how much of it was actually organic) but the prices are definitely higher than the same items at nearby stores. I saw a large produce section, a wine cellar, a small collection of dry goods (like grains/nuts/seeds/etc), several locally made items like honey and chocolates, and a bakery area. No packaged goods - there are many, many things normal grocery stores always have that Agricola does not. Highly recommend the carrot cake though!

(Whoops, meant to say Agricole***) ...😉

Still open and very friendly people.
Right next door is water/ice machine (currently out of order due to freezing storm that came through Texas).
Reasonable priced..

Stayed here one night and it was fine. Lots of other overlanders, but we followed the road closer to the Day Use area and had the spot to ourselves. No amenities, but free. Good cell service on ATT.

Nice cold shower.
Just 2 soles
Clean toilets

Huge parking lot! They have an RV lot here with hook-ups for $$. We did not need hookups, so asked permission to spend the night in the parking lot. No problem! Very quiet at the far end of the lot (near the berm). Lot is well lit and security drives thru all night. Felt very safe and comfortable spending the night here.

Gravel road in was decent, we averaged 35-40 mph, with a couple washboard sections but nothing bad. It does seem the road is being maintained since we came across a small crew improving one section. Campground has two areas. One small loop with one pit toilet and another larger section where the sites were spread along the access road with several pit toilets spaced throughout. We had one bar AT&T but LTE was spotty. I-75 is close by with continuous traffic noise and air planes route nearby. We enjoyed our stay, still $10 per night, just don’t expect only the sounds of nature.

Very nice place. Used by locals, but everybody left with dark. Some pick ups passing by but nobody cares you are here. Entel mobile signal. Accessible for all types of vehicles. Great access to river. Looks clean. No horse flyes.

Descent sized pull out on the way in to Garibaldi. No signs that say no overnight parking. Pretty quiet at night. Lots of traffic in the morning. Good place to stay one night and move on. 2 bars of T-mobile, 3 bars of Verizon.

Pulled in. Flat. couple other RVs here tonight. (NO PLACE for tents)...
it is on State School Lands. People use this as a staging area- to unload Mountain Bikes, Atvs, Side by Sides.
It is quiet.
Stayed one night. Explored the area the next day.

interesting place but we didn't go in the springs. water is cool and very slimey and full of algae. you can't see the bottom. but, it's an isolated area and so far we haven't been bothered.

Don't count on it unless booked way in advance. We got to the gate and there was a padlock. We honked but no one came. Called the number showed in previous review but no one answered. Whatsapped that same number and got an answer 5 hours later saying that yes the campsite is open. Everytime we asked a question it took at least 2 hours for an answer with no real solution for the problem. So we got back the next day and the same thing happened. We left quite disappointed as it sounds like a nice place and the Meru and Kilimanjaro were really showing off. Maybe it just wasn't meant to be?!
