Nice Riverside Campground

Spent two nights here part of recent road trip to National and State Parks in Texas. I was only able to get a site for two nights as it was the week of Thanksgiving. Being as tent camper, I was lucky to be able to a few days before arrival cancel my original campsite in the main area for more secluded campsite in the no generator zone. This is the area you want to camp in, especially if you have a tent or a smaller trailer as you generally have trees around your campsite giving you some privacy. The campsite was equipped with a picnic table, bear food locker and a charcoal grill. Some of the sites also feature a pavilion for the picnic table.

I would say that this is a remote part of the park, but then every part of the park is like that. There's easy access to a short nature trail that starts in the campground and goes along the bend in the Rio Grande River and also includes a short rocky hill one can go up for views of Boquillas, Mexico. Personally, I went up for sunrise one morning with s cup of coffee (took no more than 10 minutes to walk) and enjoyed the sun rise over Mexico.

There's a store at the RV park that has essential items, including beer both packs and singles. There's also free wifi to use there, but there is no cellular service with at least Verizon within the campground.
