Check-Ins

Standard CB stay - parking lot lights on all night, light road noises. I was actually the only RV/Van, so that was nice. There were no generator noises or idle engines.

Lots of space and a wonderful view. It says on a sign camping in tents is forbidden, not sure about cars/vans/campers. Toilets seem to be permanently closed. Very calm during the night, hikers and Mountainbikers in the morning.

Water spigot right next to road as described. Was locked. Maybe for the winter. Go to Loves or the county fairgrounds.

Public aire, free for anyone with a motorhome or camper or vehicle for sleeping in. Safe area, close to town centre, toilets and potable water, empty waste (black and grey), rubbish bins nearby. Close to main road, but a good location, space for about 75 vehicles.

Excellent campsite, all facilities available, near village, quiet, peaceful, access to pyrenees. Cannot fault it.

Excellent camping, with all infrastructure, owners are friendly. We stayed here for 3 nights and we paid 1000 pesos argentinos pp ,and 300pesos mh and 300 pesos for water used.

Ruben was very friendly, helped us immediately and kept us updated with what's app photos. Although the workshop seemed professional, the problem (brakes sometimes stuck) was not found.
At the next workshop, the problem was immediately identified by a read-out device. Ruben only disassembled and cleaned the brakes.

Planet Fitness parking lot. Since I'm a member of PF, I just went in, explained I was passing through and asked if I could stay the night. The answer was yes!! No services available unless you're a member. T
here is a grocery store next door and other stores and gas station close!

We like this NFS area because it is quiet, private yet open. It is easy to access. No Verizon signal. We have stayed here twice.

The coordinate are incorrect. We did find the location just off the exit of the highway. It's not a good location. Would not recommend

Hard packed sand and easy for any vehicle to drive in . There’s lots of places to camp and even some spots with Shade. I think you can stay here for free for 14 days . Also Verizon 2 bars 5G !

Everything was great, everyone was very helpful! Meet the dad of Shawn, Butch, really nice guy! During the night there is a security guy, but if you explain to him that you got the recommendation from iOverlander and will talk to Shawn or already talked to Shawn, then everything is fine!

We reached the area in the early afternoon and after a nice hike in the surrounding desertic mountains, we went to Calderones, the next village, to buy groceries. The visit to the village was great, with very nice interactions in the tiendas.

We decided to set up camp next to the antenna towers which had the most accessible overlook of Guanajuato.

We set up cameras to capture timelapses of the sunset and city lights. By 10pm, we realized one of the cameras was missing. Checking the footage of the other, we realized someone had been creeping around our camping site for more than an hour, watching us from different directions and getting really close to our tent and gear.
After reviewing the footage, we quickly packed up and headed to the city to get a hotel room.

One of the best place to stay for a night. Beautiful view, quite calm although the highway is not too far. There was just another camper with me and you have picnic tables!

We camped with a canvas tent on the beach.
Place frequented by locals until sunset and quiet at night (just a little noise from trucks passing on the road).
There is even a guard who stays all night to monitor the equipment (chair and tables).
Superb sunset.

Nice spot, quiet after 10-11pm, other overlanders also slept here. Nice walk to restaurants on the beach front.
Tons of cruise ship tourists though.

Seaweed smell is a bit off putting when you come during Seaweed season, most restaurants in the beach clean it up which makes it nice to swim though.

Pretty nice. Not many other choices on i 40 in this area. Quiet and safe

This place is decent for an overnight stay, but anything more than that is a bit of a waste. There is trash everywhere and the lake is the equivalent of a small pond. We did feel safe in the campground but the area around is pretty run down. Three bars of service with Verizon. We chose not to stay.

awesome spot in the canyon. quiet for the most part. a little road noise from Rt.66. good spot to get out of the winds. and 4 bars 4G LTE for AT&T.
dirt road in about .5 mile and relatively decent.

Very quick overnight. Lots of amenities, including a pool, poolside bar, eatery, another bar, lots of seating, large grassy area, stage, and trampoline. It was the most confining camping area we’ve experienced since the U.S., with rigs parked very close together. I’m guessing it was busier at the beginning of Semana Santa? The campground is about a 20-minute walk to the city center and it’s a lovely walk. At the campground, a DJ played loud music until late. In the morning, an exuberant peacock helped us greet the day, early. If your goal is to meet other travelers, this is a top place to be. For us, I think we’d prefer a little more peace and space. 110 Q for two adults/one child.

After reading all the reviews, we decided to visit this side of El Chiflon, which gets a bit closer to Velo de Novia than the opposite side. Wow!! The most impressive series of waterfalls I’ve EVER seen, with impossibly blue water & so many places to explore. Make sure to continue hiking past Velo de Novia to see the final 2 falls— only about 10% of people continued on this steep trail, so it was really quiet at the top & the views were AMAZING!!

Arrived at 5.30pm & paid for the entry bracelets (50p/person), then drove a short distance to the lower parking lot & easily found a flat, comfortable spot to camp in our van. It’s a quick walk up to the main carpark from here, which is where you can pay for camping (35p/person) & get a little receipt to show the security guard. We checked out the river that evening (they will let you use the bracelet for both days if you’re camping; site closes 6/6.30pm) and then went in for a proper explore around 8am the following morning. Definitely allow at least 6hrs, there’s so much to see and do here!!

Wow! Busiest Cracker Barrel lot I have ever seen. Probably 10-12 RVs, 3-4 vans, and 4-5 semis with some car campers mixed in. Someone still running their generator at 10 pm. Not too much noise from highway. Five miles from cute Ocala historic downtown.

The place is full of trash (and dried water plants). We didn’t stay.

Dump station here. Non drinkable water also. Seems to be a place for RV's. Don't know about the price...

Everything works fine. 8$ Sani dump + potable water

Nice little parking close to the town but still in nature. Quiet at night and possible to reach in winter

Huge area with several level spots. Surrounded by trees, but we still had full solar. Beautiful meadow just beyond the trees. No cell service in the area but so close to Kings Canyon, Sequoia, and Hume Lake.

We took this hard sand road at day time and getting save to Cabo de la Vela. It was a strenuous and long drive. They were kids (a few with robes) asking for money and goats/sheeps on the road but we never stopped. We doesn't saw a faked accident or somthing else. In Cabo de la Vela are a lot of locals and tourist, specially kite surfer during there season.

That is the worse road to Cabo de la Vela. I will made a point for the better one.

That is the "better" rough road to Cabo de la Vela. Hard sand road with many potholes, high clearance is an advantage. 4x4 is not necessary. It's a strenuous challenge.
