Great spot, whether you are just passing through or you come here on purpose to enjoy magnificent desert scenery. Located at the bottom of Burro Creek Canyon, there's a year round stream that flows through, and sort of a dam that blocks the water, where I have been swimming during summer! Great sites, with enough amenities to make one comfortable- flush toilets, sinks, water, etc. Beautiful scenery, and a great jumping off point for off roaders and explorers! Usually not crowded, this is a desert gem of a campground!
