Comments: A lovely campground with nice spacious sites and fantastic views of both the desert and the city lights. We had a terrific views of both sunrise and sunset from our site. There are also plenty of hiking trails to keep us busy along with the Rio Salado Sportsmans Club for busting clays, my favorite!
